We report the following novel features of CD31 which suggest a role for it in adhesion amplification of unique T cell subsets: (a) engagement of CD31 induces the adhesive function of/31 and/~2 integrins; (b) adhesion induction by CD31 immunoglobulin G (IgG) monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) is sensitive, requiring only bivalent mAb; (c) CD31 mAb induces adhesion rapidly, but it is transient; (d) unique subsets of CD4 + and CD8 + T cells express CD31, including all naive (CD45RA +) CD8 T cells; and (e) CD31 induction is selective, inducing adhesive function of fll integrins, particularly very late antigen-4, more efhciently than the f12 integrin lymphocyte function-associated antigen-1. Conversely, CD3 is more effective in inducing ~2-mediated adhesion. Taken together, these findings indicate that unique T cell subsets express CD31, and CD31 has the capacity to induce integrin-mediated adhesion of T cells in a sensitive and selective fashion. We propose that, in collaboration with other receptors/ ligands, CD31 functions in an "adhesion cascade" by amplifying integrin-mediated adhesion of CD31 + T cells to other cells, particularly endothelial calls. gulated adhesion is critical to virtually all the functions grins and L-sdectin (LAM-1/Leu-8); regulated expression of l~ oft lymphocytes. These functions inchde both antigen- the ligands such as intracellular adhesion molectde-1 (ICAM-1), independent processes such as lymphocyte recircnlation/ vascular cell adhesion molecnle-1 (VCAM-1), and E-sdectin homing and antigen-specificrecognition events. Consequently, (endothelial leukocyte adhesion molecule-1 [ELAM-1]); and evolution has provided multiple modes of regulation of T regulated function of the T cell adhesion receptors. cell adhesion. These include regulated expression of the T It is rapidly becoming apparent that this last mode of regu- cell adhesion receptors such as very late antigen (VLA) 1 inte- lation, namely regulated function of the adhesion receptors, is powerful and widely used, not only by T cells, but by other cell types (1-10).
