Target data

Function

Part of the TCR-CD3 complex present on T-lymphocyte cell surface that plays an essential role in adaptive immune response. When antigen presenting cells (APCs) activate T-cell receptor (TCR), TCR-mediated signals are transmitted across the cell membrane by the CD3 chains CD3D, CD3E, CD3G and CD3Z. All CD3 chains contain immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motifs (ITAMs) in their cytoplasmic domain. Upon TCR engagement, these motifs become phosphorylated by Src family protein tyrosine kinases LCK and FYN, resulting in the activation of downstream signaling pathways (PubMed:2470098). In addition of this role of signal transduction in T-cell activation, CD3E plays an essential role in correct T-cell development. Initiates the TCR-CD3 complex assembly by forming the two heterodimers CD3D/CD3E and CD3G/CD3E. Participates also in internalization and cell surface down-regulation of TCR-CD3 complexes via endocytosis sequences present in CD3E cytosolic region (PubMed:10384095, PubMed:26507128). In addition to its role as a TCR coreceptor, it serves as a receptor for ITPRIPL1. Ligand recognition inhibits T-cell activation by promoting interaction with NCK1, which prevents CD3E-ZAP70 interaction and blocks the ERK-NFkB signaling cascade and calcium influx (PubMed:38614099).

    Human peripheral blood lymphocytes stained with Anti-CD3 epsilon antibody [SP7] ab16669 (red line). Human whole blood was processed using a modified protocol based on Chow et al, 2005 (PMID: 16080188). In brief, human whole blood was fixed in 4% formaldehyde (methanol-free) for 10 min at 22°C. Red blood cells were then lyzed by the addition of Triton X-100 (final concentration - 0.1%) for 15 min at 37°C. For experimentation, cells were treated with 50% methanol (-20°C) for 15 min at 4°C. Cells were then incubated with the antibody (Anti-CD3 epsilon antibody [SP7] ab16669, 1/1000 dilution) for 30 min at 4°C. The secondary antibody used was Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488) (Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488) ab150077) at 1/2000 dilution for 30 min at 4°C.

    The immunostaining was performed on a Leica Biosystems BOND® RX instrument with an Opal™ 7-color automation IHC kit (NEL821001KT, Akoya Biosciences®).

    The section was incubated in six rounds of staining; in the order of Anti-PD1 antibody [CAL20] ab237728 (1/500 dilution), Anti-PD-L1 antibody [CAL10] ab237726 (1/500 dilution), Anti-CD68 antibody [SP251] ab192847 (1/300 dilution), Anti-CD3 epsilon antibody [SP7] ab16669 (1/300 dilution), Anti-Ki67 antibody [SP6] ab16667 (1/200 dilution) and Anti-pan Cytokeratin antibody [C-11] ab7753 (1/200 dilution); each using a separate fluorescent tyramide signal amplification system.

    Sodium citrate antigen retrieval (Leica ER1, pH6.0, 30 minutes) was used in between rounds of tyramide signal amplification to remove the antibody from the previous round, to avoid any cross-reactivity.

    DAPI (dark blue) was used as a nuclear counter stain.

    Microscopy and pseudocoloring of individual Opal™ dyes was performed using a Vectra Polaris.

    Anti-CD3 epsilon antibody [SP7] ab16669 staining rat infarcted heart tissue by Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections).

    Myocardial infarction was produced in a rat model following the ligation of the left anterior descending (LAD) coronary artery. Tissue was harvested 6 w following infarct, fixed with Histochoice for 72 hr, paraffin sectioned and the slide was then baked prior to CD3 epsilon staining. Anti-CD3 epsilon antibody [SP7] ab16669 at 1/200 was incubated overnight at 4°C. The image was taken with a confocal laser scanning microscope and shows cells giving strong inmmunofluorescence staining for CD3 epsilon antigen (green), indicating presence of cells of T-lymphocytes origin in the infarct zone of the heart tissue, counterstained nuclei with DAPI (blue). Note, CD3 epsilon tended to be present in nests of 2-5 cells that were non-uniformly distributed in the infarct zone. In addition, the image shows that the CD3 epsilon localization is predominantly membrane based and to a certain extent intracytoplasmic.

    Panel A: merged staining of anti-CD68 (magenta; Opal™690), anti-CD3 epsilon (green; Opal™520) and anti-LY75/DEC-205 (red; Opal™570) on human thymus.
    Panel B: anti-CD3 epsilon stained on T cells.
    Panel C: anti-LY75/DEC-205 stained on thymic cortical epithelium and dendritic cells.
    Panel D: anti-CD68 stained on macrophages.

    Sections  were treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with Tris-EDTA buffer (pH 9.0, epitope retrieval solution2) for 20 mins before antibody incubation. The section was incubated in three rounds of staining: in the order of Anti-CD68 antibody [EPR20545] ab213363, Anti-CD3 epsilon antibody [SP7] ab16669, and Anti-LY75/DEC-205 antibody [EPR5233] - BSA and Azide free ab208649 for 30 mins at room temperature. Each round was followed by a separate fluorescent tyramide signal amplification system.

    DAPI was used as a nuclear counterstain.

    The immunostaining was performed on a Leica Biosystems BOND® RX instrument with an Opal™ 4-color kit. Image acquisition was performed with Leica SP8 confocal microscope.
