    CD45 is a type I transmembrane molecule with phosphatase activity which comprises up to 10% of the cell surface area in nucleated haematopoietic cells. We have previously demonstrated the absence of nuclear apoptosis in CD45-negative T cells after chemical-induced apoptosis. The aim of this study was to characterize the role of CD45 in nuclear apoptosis. In contrast to wild type CD45-positive T cells, the CD45-deficient T cell lines are resistant to the induction of DNA fragmentation and chromatin condensation following tributyltin (TBT) or H(2)O(2 )exposure, but not to cycloheximide-induced apoptosis. CD45 transfection in deficient cell lines led to the restoration of chromatin condensation and DNA fragmentation following TBT exposure. In both CD45-positive and negative T cell lines, TBT exposure mediates intracellular calcium mobilization, caspase-3 activation and DFF45 cleavage. Moreover, DNA fragmentation was also induced by TBT in cells deficient in expression of p56lck, ZAP-70 and SHP-1. Subcellular partitioning showed a decrease in nuclear localisation of caspase-3 and DFF40. Together, these results demonstrate for the first time, that CD45 expression plays a key role in internucleosomal DNA fragmentation and chromatin condensation processes during apoptosis. CD45 activity or its substrates' activity, appears to be located downstream of caspase-3 activation and plays a role in retention of DFF40 in the nucleus.
