The Ag recognized by the mAb HML-1 is expressed on more than 90% of human intestinal intraepithelial lymphocytes, whereas in other lymphoid tissues it is rarely or not expressed. In the present study, we have investigated the percentage of HML-1-positive cells in the human intestinal lamina propria and the coexpression of HML-1 with different T cell subset markers. In addition, we studied the inducibility of HML- 1 on PBL which normally are HML-1-negative. Flow cytometric analysis of isolated intestinal lamina propria lymphocytes (LPL) showed that about 40% of the cells expressed HML-1, the majority belonging to the CD8- positive subpopulation. Virtually all LPL expressed CD45RO, whereas the percentage of CD29-positive cells was only about 50%, similar to PBL. There were only few cells expressing CD45RA or Leu-8 in the lamina propria. HML-1-positive cells were almost exclusively CD45RA-negative, but were found in both the CD29-positive and the CD29-negative subpopulation of LPL. In vitro stimulation of PBL showed that the expression of HML-1 was inducible on T cells by mitogens, phorbolester, Ag, and rIL-2. Expression of HML-1 was induced with a different time course and with differences in the response to the investigated stimuli compared with CD25. Activated HML-1-positive PBL were also predominantly CD45RA-negative. The findings show that HML-1 is an Ag, which is expressed in vivo on a specific subset of previously activated T cells in the unique environment of the intestinal mucosa, and which can be induced in vitro by different activation signals on PBL.
