Gene expression profiles were compared in circulating bovine
GD3.5+ (CD8-) and GD3.5-
(predominantly CD8+) 
T cells using serial analysis
of gene expression (SAGE). Approximately 20,000 SAGE tags were
generated from each library. A comparison of the two libraries
demonstrated 297 and 173 tags representing genes with 5-fold
differential expression in GD3.5+ and GD3.5-

T cells, respectively. Consistent with their localization into
sites of inflammation, GD3.5+ 
T cells appeared
transcriptionally and translationally more active than
GD3.5- 
cells. GD3.5- 
T cells
demonstrated higher expression of the cell proliferation inhibitor BAP
37, which was associated with their less activated gene expression
phenotype. The immune regulatory and apoptosis-inducing molecule,
galectin-1, was identified as a highly abundant molecule and was higher
in GD3.5+
T cells. Surface molecules attributed to
myeloid cells, such as CD14, CD68, and scavenger receptor-1, were
identified in both populations. Furthermore, expression of B
lymphocyte-induced maturation protein, a master regulator of B cell and
myeloid cell differentiation, was identified by SAGE analysis and was
confirmed at the RNA level to be selectively expressed in 
T
cells vs 
T cells. These results provide new insights into the
inherent differences between circulating 
T cell
subsets.
