Two anti-CD3 antibodies and their Fab/F(ab')2 fragments were compared with regard to their requirement for secondary signals and generations of intracellular messengers. The anti-CD3 antibody BMA030 was found to require monocyte contact to elicit T-cell mitogenesis. Cross-linking by plastic-bound goat anti-mouse antibodies (panning) failed to activate T cells, even in the presence of recombinant IL-1 or IL-2. In contrast, crosslinking of the anti-CD3 antibody Leu4 or Leu4 fragments was mitogenic in monocyte-free cultures. Measurements of intracellular Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i) and generation of inositol phosphates revealed that binding (+/- panning) of BMA030, Leu4, and their F(ab')2 fragments generated similar amounts of intracellular messengers and thus failed to explain the different responsiveness to passive crosslinking. Since the generation of these messengers was not necessarily followed by proliferation but was always observed when mitogenesis occurred, we conclude that the elevation of [Ca2+]i and the production of inositol phosphates are required but not sufficient to trigger mitogenesis.
