Ephrin-A1 binds to CD4+ lymphocytes. (A) Binding of control-Fc (—) and ephrin-A1-Fc (- - -) to peripheral blood isolated CD4+ T cells (CD4+) or CD19+ B cells (CD19+). No binding is observed to CD19+ B cells. (B) Costaining of peripheral blood CD4+ T cells with ephrin-A1-Fc and either CD45RA, CD45RO, or CD62L. The ephrin-A1 nonbinding cells are CD45RO+ and CD62L-. (C) Costaining of control-Fc or ephrin-A1-Fc with anti-CD4 on a total tonsil cell preparation. (D) Binding of control-Fc (—) or ephrin-A1-Fc (- - -) to peripheral blood CD4+ T cells stimulated with anti-CD3/CD28 (day 1, day 3). Day 0 indicates freshly isolated cells.
