AB CD30 is a member of the TNF receptor superfamily that is commonly used
as a marker for Hodgkin and Reed-Sternberg cells in Hodgkin's disease.
More recently, it has been proposed that CD30 is preferentially
up-regulated on Th2-type human T cells. We analyzed regulation of CD30
expression on both peripheral blood T cells and T cell clones. In
short-term culture, CD30 expression could be induced on T cells by Ags
that elicit Th2-type responses (Schistosoma haematobium, adult worm Ag,
and Toxocaria canis, excretory/secretory Ag) and Th0-type responses
(tetanus toxoid), as well as Th1-type responses (tuberculin purified
protein derivative). Moreover, simultaneous measurement of membrane
phenotype and cytokine production showed that CD30-expressing cells can
produce IFN-gamma. Finally, within panels of randomly generated as well
as Ag-specific T cell clones, CD30 expression was found on Th0-, Th2-,
and Th1-type clones. We conclude that induction of CD30 on activated T
cells is not related to differentiation in Th0-, Th1-, or Th2-type
cells.
