Cytotoxic T lymphocyte precursors (CTLp) in the spleen or thymus of individual adult (8 to 10 wk) or aged (greater than 20 mo) DBA/2J mice have been activated by irradiated H-2Kb antigens under limiting dilution conditions such that cytotoxic cells in responder wells result from stimulation of a single CTLp. After division into several equal samples and expansion in the presence of IL 2 and more irradiated H-2Kb stimulators, the contents of replicate individual wells were tested for their ability to lyse a panel of selected H-2Kb mutant targets. The heterogeneity within a given age group, and the similarity of CTLp repertoires between different age groups were then compared for splenic and thymic CTLp repertoires. Our data indicate a far greater mouse-to-mouse variation for the splenic CTLp repertoire of aged mice compared with young mice, despite the greater heterogeneity of the repertoire in the latter case. Less difference was seen for the thymic CTLp repertoire. When we studied the correlation between the repertoires present in the thymus and spleen within a given age group, it seemed that the most striking difference in aged mice was a loss of systematic expansion of the early appearing thymic CTLp repertoire. These findings are discussed in terms of a two-stage model of T cell differentiation.
