The TCR-mediated signals required to activate resting T cells have been well characterized; however, it is not known how TCR-coupled signals are transduced in differentiated effector T cells that coordinate ongoing immune responses. Here we demonstrate that human effector CD4 T cells up-regulate the expression of the CD3
-related FcR
signaling subunit that becomes part of an altered TCR/CD3 signaling complex containing CD3
, but not CD3
. The TCR/CD3/FcR
complex in effector cells recruits and activates the Syk, but not the ZAP-70, tyrosine kinase. This physiologic switch in TCR signaling occurs exclusively in effector, and not naive or memory T cells, suggesting a potential target for manipulation of effector responses in autoimmune, malignant, and infectious diseases.
