Within murine epidermis exists a population of Thy-1+ DEC which express membrane Thy-1 antigen, but lack CD8 or CD4 antigen. We examined freshly obtained non-cultured Thy-1+ DEC both by immunofluorescence and by biochemical techniques to identify the protein products of the T cell receptor (TCR) and the associated CD3 complex on these cells. Virtually all of the Thy-1+ DEC are brightly positive in CD3 expression...
