To evaluate the functional significance of the T-cell membrane structure recognized by OKT8 or Leu2a, seven different monoclonal antibodies, reacting with different epitopes of this 76 KD big membrane structure, were evaluated for their ability to alter specific cell mediated lympholysis after a mixed leukocyte reaction. The stimulated effector cells were first incubated with a monoclonal antibody, washed and then tested for their cytotoxicity. Those antibodies, which react with a highly trypsin-sensitive region of the T8 glycoprotein, were the most effective inhibitors of the cytotoxicity (T811, FK18). Those antibodies, which react with a relative trypsin-resistant region (OKT8, Leu2a, WT82, WT85) or with a trypsin-sensitive epitope (WT81), which is in a close neighborhood to WT82 or WT85, appear to be able to block the cytotoxicity only in certain effector/target cell combinations. The data suggest that different regions of the T8 glycoprotein are involved in the specific cytotoxic reactions, and that the involvement of certain epitopes may depend on the effector/target cell combination.
