NKG2A is commonly expressed on cytotoxic cells but has been found on activated T helper (TH) cells. In identifying novel markers differentiating between TH1 and TH2 lymphocytes, we focused on NKG2A expression. TH1 and TH2 cells were negatively isolated from healthy volunteers for microarray analysis and reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Flow cytometry of quiescent and activated TH1 and TH2 cells was performed. Isolates were >95% pure CD3+CD4+ cells (TH1=90.3% and TH2=84.1%). Microarrays revealed differential expression of NKG2A and NKG2C isoforms between TH1 and TH2 cells. RT-PCR indicated greater expression of NKG2A in TH2 cells (4-fold) and NKG2C in TH1 cells (3-fold). Flow studies revealed tripling of TH2 NKG2A with activation to 10.76+/-4.01% (p=0.05), a 23-fold increase in CD56 to 35+/-14.54% (p=0.03), and an increase in NKG2A+CD56+ double-positive cells to 3.04+/-1.38% (p=0.04). TH1 lymphocytes did not differ with activation. We identified co-induction of NKG2A and CD56 on activation of TH2 cells. These cells would likely bind more HLA-E and exhibit increased effector inhibition. Given that certain viruses are known to decrease MHC class I and thus HLA-E production by antigen-presenting cells, activated TH2 cells would bind less HLA-E in this scenario. This would likely result in less effector inhibition and a relatively robust TH2 response.
