We have previously reported that the
V
2+TCR
+ T lymphocyte subset,
expressing the NK receptor protein 1a (NKRP1a; CD161), is expanded in
patients with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis and uses this
molecule to migrate through endothelium. In this work, we show that
V
1+ and V
2+ 
T lymphocytes use
distinct signal transduction pathways to accomplish this function.
Indeed, we have found that V
1+ cells lack NKRP1a and
selectively express the platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule 1
(PECAM1; CD31), which drives transendothelial migration of this cell
subset, at variance with V
2+ T cells, which are PECAM1
negative and use NKRP1a for transmigration. Interestingly, when
V
2+ T cells were pretreated with two specific inhibitors
of the calcium calmodulin-dependent kinase II KN62 and KN93, but not
with the inactive compound KN92, the number of migrating cells and the
rate of transmigration were significantly decreased. In turn, the
phosphatidylinositol 3 kinase blockers wortmannin and LY294002 exerted
a dose-dependent inhibition of V
1+ cell migration.
Finally, NKRP1a and PECAM1 engagement led to activation of different
signal transduction pathways: indeed, oligomerization of NKRP1a on
V
2+ T cells activates calcium calmodulin-dependent
kinase II, while occupancy of PECAM1 on V
1+ cells
triggers the phosphatidylinositol 3 kinase-dependent Akt/protein kinase
B
activation. These findings suggest that subsets of 
T
lymphocytes may migrate to the site of lesion in multiple sclerosis
using two different signaling pathways to
extravasate.
