The human T-cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV) is the first isolated human retrovirus but its receptor has yet to be identified, in part due to its ubiquitous expression. Here we report that quiescent CD4 and CD8 T lymphocytes do not express this receptor, as monitored with a soluble receptor binding domain derived from the HTLV envelope. However, HTLV receptors is an early activation marker in neonatal and adult T lymphocytes, detected as early as 4 hours following T cell receptor (TCR) stimulation. This induced surface expression of the HTLV receptor requires de novo protein synthesis and results in a wide distribution on the surface of activated lymphocytes. Moreover, the distribution of the HTLV receptor was independent of TCR/CD3 capped membrane structures, as observed by confocal immunofluorescence microscopy. To determine whether HTLV receptor upregulation specifically requires TCR-mediated signals or alternatively, is dependent upon more generalized cell cycle entry/proliferation signals, its expression was monitored in IL-7-stimulated neonatal and adult T cells. Neonatal, but not adult, lymphocytes proliferate in response to IL-7 and HTLV receptor expression was restricted to the former population. Thus, HTLV receptor expression appears to be an early marker of cell cycle entry. Upregulation of the HTLV receptor, via signals transmitted through the IL-7 cytokine receptor as well as the TCR, is likely to contribute to the mother-to-infant transmission and spreading of HTLV-1.
