title: [The main difference between the repertoire of receptors of effector T-killers and their secondary precursors (memory cells)].
abstract: Receptor repertoire analysis of in vivo induced secondary cytotoxic T lymphocyte precursors (pCTL-2) was performed, using the technique of their specific adherence to macrophage monolayers with subsequent elution of the adherent pCTL-2 and their activation by heat-killed donor stimulator cells. The capacity of anti-H-2Kb pCTL-2 receptors to contact H-2Kbm has been revealed only in a minor pCTL-2 component whose progenitors were able to lyse mutant bm1 target cells (TC). Unlike poor cross-reactivity of CTL descended from anti-Kb, pCTL-2 which were eluted from the donor monolayer, CTL-progenitors of anti-Kb pCTL-2 eluted from bm 1 or B10. A (4R) third-party monolayers lyse in equal quantities the donor TC and those third-party TC from which they have been eluted, but fail to lyse other TC. Enrichment of pCTL-2 eluted from bm 1 or B10. A (4R) monolayers is 6- or 12-fold lower, respectively, than after their elution from the donor monolayer. The findings indicate that anti-class I MHC pCTL-2 are separated into fractions, with their receptors being strongly specific (with high affinity) to the particular fragment of the same complex epitope without cross-reactivity to other fragments. These data differentiate pCTL-2 receptors from effector CTL ones which are homogenous in specificity to a whole (single) complex epitope with variable degree of complementarity. A cardinal distinction of receptor repertoire between CTL, pCTL-2 and suppressor T cells specific to the same class I MHC molecule and alteration of the active site during pCTL-2 differentiation have been suggested.
