Background: Integrin alpha E/CD103

CD103 is a member of the integrin series of adhesion molecules. This antigen defines a developmentally important subset of T cells, namely mucosal T cells including all IEL (intraepithelial lymphocytes) and approx. 20% of lamina propria T cells. Expression of CD103 is more restricted outside these mucosal organs, appearing at lower levels on T cell subsets of the lymph node, dendritic epidermis and periphery. (1-3) In non-epithelial CD103+ T cells there is a bias toward expression on CD8+.cells. The 2E7 mAb exhibits antigen immunoprecipitation patterns similar if not identical to the rat anti-mouse CD103 mAb M290. (1) The 2E7 mAb is reported to have signal-inducing activity in a redirected lysis assay and to co-stimulate IEL and CD8+ lymph node cells in conjunction with anti-TCR in vitro, which runs counter to the usual inhibition of CTL by anti-integrins. (1) This co-stimulatory activity is also shared by the mAb M290. (4) The property of costimulation is not unique to the mouse since the combination of anti-human alpha IEL plus anti-TCR will produce similar proliferation in human cells, with the exception that CD8+ cells are not stimulated.
