Development of T lymphocytes inXenopus laeviswas studied using a mouse monoclonal antibody (mAb), XT-1, that was produced against surface determinants on thymocytes of J strain frog. Ontogenic studies, employing immunofluorescence, showed that cells positive for the determinant recognized by XT-1 mAb (XT-1+cells) were first detected in the thymus of J strainXenopusby Nieuwkoop and Faber stage 48 (7 days postfertilization) and then in the spleen, liver and kidney by stage 52 (20 days postfertilization). Percentages of XT-1+cells in the thymus increased rapidly by stage 49 (10 days postfertilization) and reached adult levels by stage 52, and those in the spleen, liver, and kidney reached adult levels by stage 56 (40 days postfertilization). Electron microscopic immunohistochemistry revealed that most XT-1+cells in thymuses from stage 56 larvae were typical small lymphocytes (4–7 μm in diameter). In contrast, many XT-1+cells in larval thymuses at stage 49 are large (8–10 μm in diameter) lymphoblastoid cells. Thymectomy at stage 46 (5 days postfertilization) depleted XT-1+cells in larval and adult lymphoid organs to background levels. These results suggest that the XT-1+cells are differentiated from the lymphoid precursor cells in the thymus before the appearance of small lymphocytes and migrate into peripheral lymphoid organs. The cell surface determinant recognized by the XT-1 mAb may provide an important marker for the differentiation of T lymphocytes inXenopus.
