Proliferation of murine T lymphocytes in blood, lymph nodes, and
spleen was studied in four in vivo stimulation systems, using BrdU
pulse-labeling of DNA-synthesizing cells. The T cell response to the
superantigen Staphylococcus enterotoxin B (SEB) was
studied in detail. Vß8+ T cells showed a peak of DNA
synthesis 1624 h after SEB injection, and the percentage of
BrdU+ CD4 and CD8 T cells was higher in blood than in lymph
nodes and spleen. DNA synthesis was preceded by massive migration of
Vß8+ cells from blood to lymphoid organs, in which the
early activation marker CD69 was first up-regulated. SEB-nonspecific
Vß6+ cells showed minimal stimulation but, when cycling,
also expressed a high level of CD69. The other systems studied were
injection of the IFN-
inducer polyinosinic:polycytidylic acid,
infection by the BM5 variants of murine leukemia virus (the causative
agent of murine AIDS), and T cell expansion after transfer of normal
bone marrow and lymph node cells into recombinase-activating
gene-2-deficient mice. In each case, a peak of T cell proliferation was
observed in blood. These data demonstrate the extensive redistribution
of cycling T cells in the first few hours after activation. Kinetic
studies of blood lymphocyte status appear crucial for understanding
primary immune responses because cycling and redistributing T
lymphocytes are enriched in the circulating
compartment.
