CD5 positively costimulates TCR-stimulated mature T cells, whereas this molecule has been suggested to negatively regulate the activation of TCR-triggered thymocytes. We investigated the effect of CD5 costimulation on the differentiation of CD4+CD8+ thymocytes. Coligation of thymocytes with anti-CD3 and anti-CD5 induced enhanced tyrosine phosphorylation of LAT (linker for activation of T cells) and phospholipase C-gamma (PLC-gamma) compared with ligation with anti-CD3 alone. Despite increased phosphorylation of PLC-gamma, this treatment down-regulated Ca2+ influx. In contrast, the phosphorylation of LAT and enhanced association with Grb2 led to activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) mitogen-activated protein kinase. When CD3 and CD5 on CD4+CD8+ thymocytes in culture were coligated, they lost CD8, down-regulated CD4 expression, and induced CD69 expression, yielding a CD4+(dull)CD8-CD69+ population. An ERK inhibitor, PD98059, inhibited the generation of this population. The reduction of generation of CD4+CD8- cells resulted from decreased survival of these differentiating thymocytes. Consistent with this, PD98059 inhibited the anti-CD3/CD5-mediated Bcl-2 induction. These results indicate that CD5 down-regulates a branch of TCR signaling, whereas this molecule functions to support the differentiation of CD4+CD8+ thymocytes by up-regulating another branch of TCR signaling that leads to ERK activation.
