Regulation of helper T cell clone proliferation via the CD2 molecule   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
We have investigated the requirements for CD2-induced proliferation of a CD4+, CD8-, CD3+, CD2+ antigen-specific, class II-restricted proliferating cloned cell line. A combination pair of two monoclonal antibodies (MoAb) recognizing, respectively, TII1 and D66 epitopes on the CD2 molecule was used as a stimulus. The regulatory function of accessory cells and various interleukins in this proliferation was determined. The results show that although this clone was able to proliferate in the absence of accessory cells (AC) or interleukin 1 (IL-1) when stimulated by these MoAb, AC constantly enhanced the response to these MoAb. AC acted by increasing high-affinity IL-2 receptor expression. On the contrary they did not play any role in IL-2 production. This regulation of IL-2 receptor expression by AC was specific of adherent cells, did not involve Fc receptors, was impaired when AC were metabolically inactivated and did not require T cell-AC interaction via LFA1, CD4, or HLA molecules. The AC function was not abrogated by anti-IL-1 antibodies and could not be replaced by exogenous IL-1. These results were compared to previously described AC effects on resting T-cell proliferation when stimulated with the same pair of anti-CD2 MoAb. Clear differences in activation requirements in resting and activated T cells via CD2 molecules were found.  相似文献

Cross-linking of CD8 and HLA class I molecules with appropriate monoclonal antibodies (mAb) and goat anti-mouse Ig (GaMIg) antibody resulted in a marked proliferation of resting human CD8 cells in the presence of interleukin-2 (IL-2). These cells also expressed IL-2 receptor (IL-2R), transferrin receptor, HLA-DR and -DQ antigens. Activation of the cross-linked CD8 cells is apparently independent of accessory monocytes. Various anti-CD8 and anti-HLA class I mAb recognizing nonpolymorphic antigenic determinants were examined for the efficacy of activating CD8 cells. Among mAb specific for HLA class I molecules, PA2.6, MB40.5, BB7.7, A1.4, and W6/32 mAb markedly stimulated the proliferation of cross-linked CD8 cells, whereas BBM.1, Q1/28, and HC10 mAb were found inactive. Footprinting analysis of HLA class I molecules suggested that the activity of these anti-HLA class I mAb appeared to be related to the corresponding peptides they protect from enzymatic digestion. In contrast to the anti-HLA class I mAb, all anti-CD8 mAb examined (C8, OKT8A, and anti-Leu-2a) induced the proliferation of CD8-HLA class I cross-linked cells with similar efficacy. These results suggest that physical interaction between CD8 and at least one specific region of HLA class I molecules can trigger the activation of resting human CD8 cells.  相似文献

Both AILIM/ICOS and CD28 provide positive costimulatory signals for T-cell activation, resulting in proliferation and cytokine production. In this study, we attempted to clarify the key signaling molecules in T-cell proliferation, and also IL-2 and IL-10 production, during T-cell activation by CD3 induced by costimulation with either AILIM/ICOS or CD28. We examined the role of both the PI3-kinase/Akt pathway and MAP kinase family members such as ERK1/2, JNK, and p38 kinase in this process. PI3-kinase and Erk1/2 were shown to potentially regulate primary T-cell activation and subsequent proliferation via both AILIM/ICOS- or CD28-mediated costimulation and the Erk signaling cascade was essential for this proliferation induction and also for IL-2 production. The JAK inhibitor, AG490, inhibited this induction. Our studies indicate that IL-2 is necessary for induction of T-cell proliferation and that the quantities of IL-2 produced by AILIM/ICOS ligation are also sufficient for T-cells to proliferate. In contrast, inhibition of Akt and p38, that are phosphorylated by both AILIM/ICOS and CD28-ligation, could downregulate IL-10 production but not T-cell proliferation. These data raise the interesting possibility that the signaling cascades between T-cell proliferation and IL-10 production are regulated by different molecules in AILIM/ICOS- and CD28-costimulated T-cells.  相似文献

An initial event in T cell activation is the specific adherence of T cells via their T cell receptor to the MHC peptide complex. We have studied this adherence by incubating T cells with preformed HLA DR4Dw4 peptide complexes attached to a solid support. Adherence of sodium 51Cr-labeled T cell clones specific for the influenza hemagglutinin peptide, HA 307-319, was maximal after 15 min and was specific for the HLA DR4Dw4-HA 307-319 complex. The binding was temperature dependent and could be blocked with azide or protein kinase C inhibitors, indicating that for adherence the T cells need to be metabolically active and have a functioning protein kinase C pathway. The adherence could be blocked with CD4- or CD3-reactive murine mAb, suggesting that the TCR and CD4 molecules work in concert to induce strong adherence to the HLA DR4Dw4-HA 307-319 complex. A subsequent event in T cell activation is proliferation, which is thought to need additional proteins such as IL-1 or other adhesion molecules. MHC peptide complexes coated on microtiter plates also induced proliferation in the human T cell clones. Removal of any monocytes by treatment of human T cell clones with anti-CD14 in conjunction with C, followed by purification over a nylon wool column, did not abrogate proliferation. After prolonged culture of the T cell clones in plates coated with peptide-pulsed HLA DR4Dw4 in the presence of IL-2, the T cell clones continued to proliferate in response to peptide. These results suggest that human T cell clones do not require a second signal from a monocyte or other APC to proliferate.  相似文献

The long-lasting expression of an alpha-subunit of interleukin-3 receptor (IL-2Ralpha) was found to accompany the PHA-induced proliferation of human blood lymphocytes (HBL), so that to the end of the second day of mitogenic stimulation only, the large blasts may express the high affinity alphabetagamma(c) receptor for IL-2. With the selective pharmacological drugs to JAK (WHI-P131) and Src (PP2) it is shown that the non-receptor tyrosine kinases are involved in the surface CD25 expression. It is revealed that the PP-2-inhibitable expression of CD25 is timely associated with the initial stage of T cell activation, whereas WHI-P131-inhibitable expression was present during the whole G0/G1/S transition. These data indicate that at the early, antigen-dependent stage the expression of IL-2Ralpha is induced via Src-dependent signaling pathway, and prolonged increase in IL-2Ralpha expression is regulated by IL-2/IL-2 receptor interaction via JAK-dependent signaling pathway.  相似文献

We report the presence of a CD4-mediated T-cell activation pathway on an autoreactive CD3+WT31+CD4+CD8- T-cell clone, designated 2F9, isolated from the peripheral blood of a patient with ovarian adenocarcinoma. The OKT4 mab modulated the CD4 antigen independently of the CD3 antigen or the alpha beta T-cell receptor. OKT4 mab immobilized on plastic or soluble OKT4 mab in the presence of feeder PBMC induced proliferation and IL-2 production by cells of the 2F9 clone. Mixtures of the OKT4 mab and the OKT3 or anti-WT31 mabs induced additive proliferative responses and IL-2 production. The OKT4 mab synergized with recombinant IL-2 in inducing proliferative responses. These results suggest the presence of activation pathway on 2F9 cells.  相似文献

Monoclonal antibodies (mAb) to monomorphic and polymorphic determinants on the heavy chain of histocompatibility leukocyte antigen (HLA) class I antigens inhibit mAb OKT3-induced T cell proliferation, whereas the anti-beta 2-microglobulin mAb NAMB-1 does not affect it. The inhibitory effect of anti-HLA class I mAb is specific, is not an Fc-mediated phenomenon, does not require accessory cells, and does not involve early stages of T cell activation. Distinct determinants of HLA class I antigens regulate T cell proliferation by different mechanisms, because the anti-HLA-A2, A28 mAb CR11-351, and the mAb W6/32 to a framework determinant of HLA class I antigens block interleukin 2 (IL-2) secretion and IL-2 receptor expression, whereas the mAb CR10-215 to a monomorphic determinant blocks only IL-2 receptor expression. The mAb CR10-215 and W6/32 induced a 50% of maximal inhibition of T cell proliferation, when added after 27 and 12 hr, respectively, of incubation of peripheral blood mononuclear cells with mAb OKT3. On the other hand, the mAb CR11-351 inhibited T cell proliferation even when added after 38 hr of incubation of peripheral blood mononuclear cells with mAb OKT3 and was the only one to inhibit proliferation of cycling T lymphocytes. It is suggested that HLA class I antigens regulate T cell proliferation by interacting with cell-surface molecules involved in T cell activation. The differential inhibitory activity of the anti-HLA class I monoclonal antibodies tested may reflect the different ability of the corresponding determinants to interact with activation molecules.  相似文献

Cross-linking class I MHC molecules on human T cell clones by reacting them with various mAb directed at either monomorphic or polymorphic determinants on class I MHC molecules followed by cross-linking with GaMIg stimulated a rise in intracellular free calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i), and induced proliferation and IL-2 production. T cell clones varied in the mean density of class I MHC molecules and the capacity to respond to mAb to class I MHC molecules. However, the functional responses of the clones did not correlate with class I MHC density or the CD4/CD8 phenotype. mAb to polymorphic class I MHC determinants were less able to induce an increase in [Ca2+]i and a functional response in the T cell clones. Additive stimulatory effects were noted when mAb against both HLA-A and HLA-B determinants were employed. Cross-linking class I MHC molecules on Jurkat cells induced a rise by [Ca2+]i and induced IL-2 production upon co-stimulation with PMA. Cross-linking class I MHC molecules on mutant Jurkat cells that expressed diminished levels of CD3 and were unable to produce IL-2 in response to anti-CD3 stimulation triggered both a rise in [Ca2+]i and IL-2 production with PMA co-stimulation. In contrast, cross-linking class I MHC molecules on mutant Jurkat cells that were CD3- stimulated neither a rise in [Ca2+]i nor IL-2 production. The combination of mAb to CD28 or ionomycin and PMA, however, was able to induce IL-2 production by CD3- Jurkat cells. The data demonstrate that cross-linking class I MHC molecules delivers a functionally important signal to T cell clones and Jurkat cells and indicate that class I MHC molecules may function to transduce activation signals to T cells. In addition, the data demonstrate that transmission of an activation signal via class I MHC molecules requires CD3 expression. The data, therefore, support a central role for CD3 in the transduction of activation signals to T cells via class I MHC molecules.  相似文献

The monoclonal antibodies (MoAb) CR10-214, CR11-115, and Q1/28 to distinct monomorphic determinants of HLA class I antigens, the MoAb CL413 and PTF29.12 recognizing monomorphic determinants of HLA-DR antigens, the anti-HLA-DQw1 MoAb KS11, the anti-HLA-DPw1 MoAb B7/21, and the anti-HLA-DR,DP MoAb CR11-462 were tested for their ability to modulate human B-lymphocyte proliferation and maturation to IgM-forming cells. Purified tonsillar B cells were stimulated with Staphylococcus aureus bacteria of the Cowan first strain (SAC) or anti-human mu-chain xenoantibodies, as well as in growth factor- or T-cell-dependent activation cultures. The B-cell proliferative responses induced by SAC or by mitogenic concentrations of anti-mu-chain xenoantibodies were inhibited by some of the anti-HLA class I and anti-HLA class II monoclonal antibodies tested. The same antibodies were effective inhibitors of the proliferation of B cells stimulated with interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) or interleukin-2 (IL-2) and with submitogenic concentrations of anti-mu-chain xenoantibodies. The proliferation induced by IL-2 of SAC-preactivated B cells was inhibited by some of the anti-HLA class II monoclonal antibodies, but not by the anti-HLA class I monoclonal antibodies tested. This inhibition appeared to reflect at least in part a direct effect on later events of the B-cell activation cascade, since some anti-HLA class II monoclonal antibodies still exerted considerable inhibitory activity when added together with IL-2 to SAC-preactivated B cells after the third day of culture. Anti HLA-DR, DQ, and DP monoclonal antibodies consistently inhibited the IgM production induced in B cells by T cells alone, T cells plus pokeweed mitogen (PWM), SAC plus IL-2, or IL-2 alone. In contrast, two of the three anti-HLA class I monoclonal antibodies tested inhibited the IgM production in cultures stimulated with SAC plus IL-2 and one the IgM production induced by IL-2 alone, but none of them had inhibitory effects on T-cell dependent IgM production. The results reported herein indicate that HLA class II molecules directly participate in different phases of the B-cell activation cascade. In addition, our data also suggest that HLA class I molecules can be involved in the events leading to B-cell proliferation and differentiation into immunoglobulin-secreting cells.  相似文献

The transactivator protein Tax of human T-cell leukemia virus type I plays an important role in the development of adult T-cell leukemia probably through modulation of growth regulatory molecules including p16(INK4a). The molecular mechanism of leukemogenesis induced by Tax has yet to be elucidated. We analyzed Tax function in the cell cycle using an interleukin-2 (IL-2)-dependent human T-cell line (Kit 225) that can undergo cell cycle arrest at G(0)/G(1) phase by deprivation of IL-2. Tax activated endogenous E2F activity in IL-2-starved Kit 225 cells, resulting in activation of E2F site-carrying promoters of genes involved in G(1) to S phase transition in a cell type-dependent and p16(INK4a)-independent manner. The ability of Tax mutants to activate E2F coincided with that to activate nuclear factors kappaB and AT, sole expression of which, however, did not activate E2F, suggesting involvement of another pathway in activation of E2F. Introduction of Tax by a recombinant adenovirus induced cell cycle progression to G(2)/M phase in resting Kit 225 cells accompanied by endogenous cyclin D2 gene expression. Similarly, Tax-induced cell cycle progression was seen with peripheral blood lymphocytes prestimulated with phytohemagglutinin. Analyses with Tax mutants did not allow Tax-induced cell cycle progression to be differentiated from Tax-dependent activation of E2F, suggesting that Tax induces cell cycle progression presumably through activation of E2F. Nevertheless, infection with an E2F1-expressing virus, which is sufficient for induction of S phase in serum-starved fibroblasts, was not sufficient for either E2F activation or cell cycle progression in IL-2-starved Kit 225 cells, implying differential regulation of E2F activation and cell cycle progression in T-cells that is activated by Tax.  相似文献

Allogeneic T cell activation triggering by MHC class I antigens   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
The role of MHC-encoded class I molecules in allogeneic activation and proliferation of human T lymphocytes was investigated. The study was performed by using primary mixed culture of lymphocytes from MHC recombinant siblings identical for MHC class II Ag (DR, DP, DQ) and displaying MHC class I disparity. The results indicate that such allogeneic combination is sufficient to trigger early activation steps within responder T cells without promoting a significant proliferation. After MHC class I allosensitization, a significant proportion of cells entered the cell cycle (G0----G1). The stimulatory potential of MHC class I Ag was further stressed by the specific induction on responder cells of IL-2R (22% T cell activation Ag positive). Under the same experimental conditions, transferrin receptor expression and IL-2 activity were not detectable. This is consistent with the low T cell proliferation. Exogenous rIL-1 did not improve IL-2 production and the subsequent T cell proliferation indicating that these two events were not associated with a defective accessory cell function involving IL-1 release. MHC class I disparity can also prime precursor CTL to differentiate into IL-2-dependent functional MHC restricted cytotoxic T cells. Conversely IFN-gamma had no effect. Addition to the culture of W6/32, a mAb specifically directed against a monomorphic determinant on human class I HLA-A, -B, and -C Ag was able to block all these activation events. These data clearly indicate a role of HLA class I Ag involvement in the early events triggering allogeneic T cell activation.  相似文献

It has previously been shown that IFN-alpha is a potent inhibitor of IL-2 induced proliferation in primary T-lymphocytes, by selectively abrogating the downstream effects of IL-2 on the core cell cycle machinery regulating the G1/S transition. Theoretically this could be mediated through cross-talk between the signalling cascades activated by these cytokines, as several signalling components are known to be shared. IL-2 activates multiple signalling pathways that are important for T-cell proliferation and differentiation. In the present study, the effects of IFN-alpha on IL-2 signal transduction was investigated. The IFN-alpha induced inhibition of IL-2 induced proliferation in activated T-lymphocytes, was associated with a suppressed Jak3 protein expression as well as an inhibited prolonged Stat5 DNA binding, and a partially reduced expression of the Stat5 inducible gene IL-2R alpha. Our results provide a possible molecular link between the prominent antiproliferative effects of IFN-alpha on IL-2 induced T-cell proliferation and the signal transduction pathways emerging from the IL-2 receptor.  相似文献

BACKGROUND: The Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) signaling pathway has been implicated in cell proliferation and apoptosis, but its function seems to depend on the cell type and inducing signal. In T cells, JNK has been implicated in both antigen-induced activation and apoptosis. RESULTS: We generated mice lacking the JNK2 isozymes. The mutant mice were healthy and fertile but defective in peripheral T-cell activation induced by antibody to the CD3 component of the T-cell receptor (TCR) complex - proliferation and production of interleukin-2 (IL-2), IL-4 and interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) were reduced. The proliferation defect was restored by exogenous IL-2. B-cell activation was normal in the absence of JNK2. Activation-induced peripheral T-cell apoptosis was comparable between mutant and wild-type mice, but immature (CD4(+) CD8(+)) thymocytes lacking JNK2 were resistant to apoptosis induced by administration of anti-CD3 antibody in vivo. The lack of JNK2 also resulted in partial resistance of thymocytes to anti-CD3 antibody in vitro, but had little or no effect on apoptosis induced by anti-Fas antibody, dexamethasone or ultraviolet-C (UVC) radiation. CONCLUSIONS: JNK2 is essential for efficient activation of peripheral T cells but not B cells. Peripheral T-cell activation is probably required indirectly for induction of thymocyte apoptosis resulting from administration of anti-CD3 antibody in vivo. JNK2 functions in a cell-type-specific and stimulus-dependent manner, being required for apoptosis of immature thymocytes induced by anti-CD3 antibody but not for apoptosis induced by anti-Fas antibody, UVC or dexamethasone. JNK2 is not required for activation-induced cell death of mature T cells.  相似文献

Previous studies indicated that, unlike peripheral T-cells, freshly isolated thymocytes show little or no proliferation to activation signals via either the antigen/MHC receptor complex (CD3Ti) or the CD2 structure, unless exogenous IL-2 or phorbol esters are added. To investigate these differences in more detail, we have studied the response of clonal populations of mature thymocyte subsets as well as peripheral T-cell clones to activation via either CD3Ti or CD2. Here we report the characterization of three clones belonging to different subsets of mature thymocytes: CD3+ CD4+ (Ti alpha/beta), CD3+ CD8+ (Ti alpha/beta), and CD3+ CD4- CD8- (Ti gamma/delta). All three clones could be induced to proliferate to insolubilized anti-CD3 mAb. In contrast, activating anti-CD2 mAbs, which induced proliferation in all peripheral T-cell clones tested, did not induce an appreciable proliferation of the thymocyte clones. The latter required additional signals provided by the phorbol ester PMA. However, anti-CD2 mAbs were able to induce early activation events such as phosphoinositide turnover and [Ca2+]i increase to an extent similar to the ones elicited by anti-CD3 mAb. These results further support previous findings suggesting that mature thymocytes are not functionally identical to peripheral T-cells.  相似文献
