Interaction of interleukin 2 (IL2) with its high affinity membrane receptor complex (IL2R) is sufficient to induce proliferation of T lymphocytes. However, the biochemical mechanisms by which IL2 induces this process remain unresolved. The IL2R complex consists of at least two distinct polypeptides that bind IL2, a 75-kDa intermediate affinity subunit (IL2R beta) and a 55-kDa low affinity subunit (IL2R alpha). As indicated by Western blotting with anti-phosphotyrosine-specific antibodies and confirmed by phosphoamino acid analysis, we now demonstrate that interaction of the T cell growth factor interleukin 2 (IL2) with its high affinity receptor on IL2-sensitive human peripheral blood lymphoblasts induces tyrosine phosphorylation of proteins of 92, 80, 78, 70-75, and 57 kDa. IL2 induced tyrosine phosphorylation in YT 2C2 cells which express only the 75-kDa intermediate affinity IL2 binding molecule (IL2R beta) but not in cells which either express only the 55-kDa low affinity IL2 receptor molecule (IL2R alpha) or no IL2-binding sites. Therefore, IL2R beta, in the absence of IL2R alpha, appears sufficient to transduce the transmembrane signal leading to tyrosine phosphorylation. Two different antibodies reactive with phosphotyrosine specifically immunoprecipitated IL2R beta cross-linked to radiolabeled IL2. These findings suggest that IL2R beta is a substrate for the tyrosine kinase which is activated by IL2 binding to its receptor. Thus, like several other growth factor receptors, activation of the IL2R results in an increase in tyrosine phosphorylation with the receptor itself serving as one substrate. 相似文献

Structure-function relationships for the IL 2-receptor system. II. Localization of an IL 2 binding site on high and low affinity receptors 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The ligand-binding component of high and low affinity IL 2 receptors is a 55,000 m.w. glycoprotein termed Tac. Correlating the structure and function of this molecule should provide insight into the mechanism of IL 2-initiated signal transduction and the structural basis for high and low affinity receptor forms. As a first step in this process, various approaches were used to localize the IL 2 binding region of the Tac molecule. Antibodies prepared to synthetic fragments of Tac were tested for their ability to interfere with IL 2 binding and bioactivity. The results delineated segments in the C-terminal portion of the molecule which appeared to be distal to the ligand binding site. In a more direct approach, radioiodinated IL 2 was cross-linked to high and low affinity receptors, and the resulting complexes were subjected to mild tryptic digestion. Consistent with the antibody data, the IL 2 remained covalently associated with an N-terminal tryptic fragment which apparently consisted of residues 1-83 of the Tac protein. These results suggest that the N-terminal region of the Tac molecule contains important contact sites for ligand-receptor interaction. 相似文献

The murine IL 2 receptor. III. Cellular requirements for the induction of IL 2 receptor expression on T cell subpopulations 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11

The accessory cell requirements for the induction of the IL 2 receptor by the lectin Con A on murine T cell subsets were directly assayed with anti-IL 2 receptor monoclonal antibodies. Substantial levels of IL 2 receptor expression were induced on T lymphocytes of the MHC class I-restricted, suppressor/cytotoxic phenotype (L3T4-, Ly-2+) in the presence and absence of accessory cells. In contrast, high levels of IL 2 receptor expression could only be induced on T cells of the MHC class II-restricted, helper/inducer phenotype (L3T4+, LY-2-) in the presence, but not in the absence, of accessory cells. Ia- cells such as the P388D1 macrophage line or cultured fibroblasts (DAP X 3) were as efficient as the Ia+ B cell hybridoma LB in providing accessory cell function for the L3T4+, Ly-2- subset. PMA, but not purified human IL 1, could substitute for accessory cells for both IL 2 receptor expression and IL 2 secretion by the L3T4+, Ly-2- subset. These data suggest that IL 2 receptor induction on the L3T4+, Ly-2- subset is complex, possibly requiring a T cell-accessory cell interaction, whereas the lectin may directly trigger IL 2 receptor expression on L3T4-, Ly-2+ T cells. 相似文献

In this report we studied the requirements for the activation and proliferation of highly purified human T lymphocytes. Purified T cells incubated for 3 days with PHA neither proliferate nor express IL 2 receptors as detected by FACS analysis with the use of anti-Tac antibodies. However, purified T cells incubated with Con A or anti-T3 moAb do not proliferate, albeit 30 to 35% T cells express Tac epitopes. The addition of IL 2, either natural purified or recombinant, resulted in both the appearance of Tac antigen and the proliferation of PHA-activated T cells. Much to our surprise, IL 2 did not induce proliferation of Tac-positive T cells activated by Con A or soluble anti-T3 unless monocytes were added to the cultures. These data suggested that two classes of IL 2 receptors might exist on T cells, one of which was not functionally involved in T cell proliferation. In keeping with this interpretation, we have been able to demonstrate, using a radiolabeled IL 2 binding assay, that anti-T3 moAb induced almost exclusively IL 2 receptors of low affinity (Kd = 30 to 70 X 10(-9) M) and that additional signals, provided by monocytes, are required for the acquisition of high affinity receptors. IL 2 itself can induce high affinity receptors on PHA-stimulated T cells but not on cells activated by Con A or anti-T3. In this latter case the physical presence of monocytes is required and cannot be substituted by IL 1, thus indicating a previously unreported role for monocytes. It is postulated that the contact of monocytes with T cells induces a switch from an inactive low affinity conformation of the IL 2 receptor to a functional high affinity one. 相似文献

Interleukin 2 (IL 2) receptor (IL 2-R) is constitutively expressed on T cell lines established from the patients with adult T cell leukemia (ATL), which is a human T cell leukemia lymphoma virus (HTLV-1)(+) T4(+)-leukemia endemic in Japan, the United States, and other countries. Many of these cell lines continuously produce an acidic lymphokine, ATL-derived factor (ADF), which preferentially induces the synthesis and expression of IL 2-R on a sensitive HTLV-1(-) non-T cell line (YT). The induced IL 2-R was characterized by the binding of 125I-IL 2 and flow cytometry by using fluoresceinated anti-human IL 2-R monoclonal antibodies (anti-Tac). Scatchard analysis with 125I-IL 2 showed ADF induced high-affinity receptor sites on YT cells. To test the possibility that ADF produced by HTLV-1(+) T cells is involved in the abnormal expression of IL 2-R, we studied the effect of ADF on an HTLV-1(+) IL 2-dependent T cell line (ED) in which the beta-chain gene of the T cell antigen receptor (T beta) was rearranged. Unlike IL 2-independent HTLV-1(+) cell lines that constitutively expressed Il 2-R, the IL 2-R expression on ED cells declined in the absence of crude IL 2 or recombinant IL 2. When either ADF or recombinant IL 2 was added to the culture of ED cells, there was a dose-dependent enhancement of IL 2-R expression in 24 hr. ADF and IL 2 showed a synergism in the IL 2-R induction, and both factors were needed to induce the maximal receptor expression in these T cells. The lack of IL 2 production by ADF-treated YT, as well as ED cell line suggested IL 2 may not be involved in the IL 2-R induction by ADF. Northern blot hybridization with human IL 2-R cDNA probe showed the increase of IL 2-R mRNA in YT cells after ADF-treatment. ADF also enhanced IL 2-R expression of a rat T cell line transformed by HTLV-1(TARS-1), as demonstrated with anti-rat IL 2 receptor monoclonal antibodies (ART-18). An ADF-like IL 2-R-inducing factor was also detected in the conditioned medium of two HTLV-1(+) rat T cell lines (TARL-2 and TART-1), which constitutively expressed a higher number of Il 2-R than TARS-1 cells.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS) 相似文献

Recent studies have demonstrated that the 50KD T11 molecule is a surface component of a macrophage-independent alternative pathway of human T cell activation that is unrelated to the T3/Ti antigen-MHC receptor complex. Given the expression of T11 on all human thymocytes, it was of interest to determine whether they could be activated via this pathway. The triggering of T11 by monoclonal antibodies anti-T112 and anti-T113, directed at two unique epitopes on the molecule, induced IL 2 receptor expression on both T3+ and T3- thymocytes but did not induce IL 2 production. Consequently, in contrast to peripheral blood T cells, thymocytes did not proliferate in response to anti-T112 and anti-T113 in the absence of exogenous IL 2. These studies suggest that IL 2 receptor gene activation precedes IL 2 gene activation in T cell development. The ability of the alternative pathway of T cell activation to induce IL 2 receptor expression on T3- thymocytes implies that the T11 molecule may have an important role in early thymocyte ontogeny. 相似文献

Structural and functional characterization of IL 2 receptors on activated human B cells 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8

After activation, B cells express the IL 2 receptor as determined by their reactivity with monoclonal anti-IL 2 receptor antibodies. In this report we show that anti-IL 2 receptor antibodies precipitated comparable 60,000 to 65,000 dalton proteins from highly purified B and T cells. Limited peptide mapping suggested that the receptors on B and T cells were identical. Moreover, activated B cells could be induced to proliferate by IL 2, but not to secrete Ig. Anti-IL 2R antibody blocked the effect of IL 2 but not the proliferative response induced by B cell growth factor (BCGF), suggesting independent growth factor receptors. Investigation of the kinetics of the B cell response to growth factor indicated that BCGF acts within 24 hr, whereas IL 2 was virtually devoid of activity for 48 hr. Nevertheless, after 72 to 96 hr, the effect of IL 2 was equal to or greater than that obtained with BCGF. These studies suggest that the initial stages of B cell proliferation involves a sequential interaction of BCGF and IL 2 with their respective receptors. 相似文献

The murine IL 2 receptor. I. Monoclonal antibodies that define distinct functional epitopes on activated T cells and react with activated B cells 总被引:27,自引:0,他引:27

The properties of three distinct rat monoclonal antibodies, designated 3C7, 7D4, and 2E4, to the murine IL 2 receptor have been compared in binding, biochemical, and functional assays. 3C7 appears to define an epitope near or identical to the IL 2-binding site of the receptor, because 3C7 inhibited the binding of radiolabeled IL 2 to CTL-L cells and because unlabeled IL 2 inhibited the binding of FITC-3C7 to CTL-L cells. 7D4 and 2E4 had no effect on IL 2 binding. Competitive antibody-binding studies confirmed that the epitope seen by 3C7 was distinct from the epitope(s) seen by 7D4 and 2E4. Sequential immunoprecipitation studies demonstrated that all three antibodies were reactive with the same molecular species, and that each precipitated identical components of 20,000 to 25,000 daltons, 50,000 to 60,000 daltons, and 100,000 to 120,000 daltons from the surface of CTL-L. FACS studies demonstrated a quantitatively and qualitatively identical cell distribution for the antigen defined by each antibody. They failed to stain more than 95% of resting lymphocytes, but were strongly reactive with Con A T blasts and substantially less reactive with LPS B blasts. Unlabeled IL 2 was also able to inhibit the binding of FITC-3C7 to LPS B cell blasts, suggesting the presence of IL 2-binding sites on activated B cells. Each antibody inhibited IL 2-driven proliferation of HT2 or CTL-L cells. 3C7 and 7D4 were more potent inhibitors of proliferation than was 2E4, and the combined use of 3C7 and 7D4 resulted in greater levels of inhibition of proliferation than that shown from the use of either antibody alone. Collectively, the results support the hypothesis that these antibodies detect two distinct functional regions of the IL 2 receptor. 相似文献

Myeloid differentiation factor MyD88 is the essential adaptor protein that integrates and transduces intracellular signals generated by multiple Toll-like receptors including receptor complex for interleukin (IL) 1beta, a key inflammatory cytokine. IL1beta receptor complex interacts with MyD88 via the Toll/IL1 receptor (TIR) domain. Here we report structure-function studies that help define the MyD88 TIR domain binding sites involved in IL1beta-induced protein-protein interactions. The MyD88 TIR domain, employed as a dominant negative inhibitor of IL1beta signaling to screen MyD88 TIR mutants, lost its suppressing activity upon truncation of its Box 3. Accordingly, mutations of Box 3 residues 285-286 reversed the dominant negative effect of the MyD88 TIR domain on IL1beta-induced and NFkappaB-dependent reporter gene activity and IL6 production. Moreover, mutations of residues 171 in helix alphaA, 195-197 in Box 2, and 275 in betaE-strand had similar functional effects. Strikingly, only mutations of residues 195-197 eliminated the TIR-TIR interaction of MyD88 and IL1 receptor accessory protein (IL1RAcP), whereas substitution of neighboring canonical Pro200 by His was without effect. Mutations in Box 2 and 3 prevented homotypic MyD88 oligomerization via TIR domain. Based on this structure-function analysis, a three-dimensional docking model of TIR-TIR interaction between MyD88 and IL1RAcP was developed. 相似文献

The suppressive effect of gangliosides upon IL 2-dependent proliferation as a function of inhibition of IL 2-receptor association 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8

Gangliosides inhibited the proliferation of mitogen-activated human peripheral blood lymphocytes and the IL 2-dependent growth of murine T cell lines and 5-day-old human PHA lymphoblasts. In the case of the murine cell lines and PHA lymphoblasts, most of the effect of gangliosides could be reversed by the addition of high levels of IL 2. In the case of freshly-stimulated mitogen blasts, however, the ganglioside-induced inhibition could not be reversed by increasing exogenous IL 2 levels. These results indicate that inhibition of proliferation by gangliosides can be divided into IL 2-reversible and IL 2-irreversible mechanisms, the latter of which were predominant during the initial stage of cellular activation. Inclusion of gangliosides in receptor binding assays for radiolabeled IL 2 indicated that the IL 2-reversible mechanism likely involved competition between gangliosides and the cellular receptor for the binding of IL 2. Gangliosides blocked binding of radiolabeled IL 2 to both the high and low affinity forms of the IL 2 receptor, and this effect was most noticeable when the gangliosides and IL 2 were preincubated before addition of the target cells. In contrast, treatment of cells with gangliosides had no effect on the affinity of the cellular IL 2 receptor if the free gangliosides were removed immediately before the binding assay. Gangliosides also blocked the binding of radiolabeled IL 2 to anti-IL 2 antibodies, supporting the notion that their inhibitory effect is mediated via a direct interaction with IL 2. Thus, one major mechanism by which gangliosides block the IL 2-dependent proliferation of activated cells is by the sequestering or inactivation of the IL 2 molecule. This effect is reversible with the addition of excess IL 2, which distinguishes it from other mechanisms of ganglioside-dependent inhibition operating during the cellular activation process. 相似文献

High affinity receptors for interleukin 2 (IL 2) contain the Tac protein as one ligand-binding subunit. Localization of the IL 2-binding site on this molecule, as well as localization of the complementary site on IL 2, should provide insight into the design of IL 2 analogs. In this report, we examine the ability of normal and modified Tac protein to bind IL 2 and several antibodies that recognize the native Tac molecule. Using a transient L cell expression system, we have determined that transfection with cDNA-missing Tac exon 4 resulted in expression of spliced protein that had no measurable binding to IL 2 or the monoclonal anti-receptor antibodies, anti-Tac, and 7G7/B6. This protein was detected, however, by rabbit polyclonal antibodies prepared against synthetic Tac peptides. Thus, one or more amino acids encoded by exon 4 is important, either for direct ligand contact or for the proper folding of critical segments of the Tac molecule. In addition, insertion of stop codons at a unique restriction enzyme site near the beginning of exon 5 resulted in cellular secretion of truncated Tac molecules that were capable of binding IL 2, anti-Tac, and 7G7/B6. Amino acids encoded by exons 5 to 8 thus play no critical role in IL 2 binding. The ligand association demonstrated for truncated Tac protein produced by exons 2 to 4 should guide attempts to define the IL 2-binding segment of the Tac molecule. 相似文献

Monoclonal antibodies OKT11A, 9.6, and 35.1 recognize epitopes on a 50000 dalton surface molecule (p50) identical to or closely associated with the sheep erythrocyte receptor (E receptor) on human T lymphocytes. These three antibodies were investigated for ability to inhibit T cell proliferation and interleukin 2 (IL 2) receptor acquisition (determined with anti-Tac antibody in an immunofluorescence assay) induced by the lectin mitogen phytohemagglutinin (PHA) or by the phorbol ester 12-O-tetradecanoyl-phorbol-13 acetate (TPA). OKT11A, 9.6, and 35.1 were found to suppress [3H]thymidine incorporation and IL 2 receptor acquisition stimulated by PHA but not by TPA. This inhibition was not attributable to a lag in kinetics, but was sustained throughout 4 to 5 days of culture. Because OKT11A and 9.6 have been reported to suppress lectin mitogen-induced IL 2 production, we attempted to overcome inhibition of proliferation with exogenous IL 2 (MLA144 supernatants or immunoaffinity-purified human IL 2). Adding IL 2 at the initiation of culture abrogated the suppressive effect of all three anti-p50 antibodies on proliferation and on the acquisition of IL 2 receptors, raising the possibility that IL 2 may up-regulate expression of its cellular receptor on human T lymphocytes. These data, together with previous reports, indicate that OKT11A, 9.6, and 35.1 suppress lectin mitogen-induced T cell proliferation by impairing both IL 2 elaboration and IL 2 receptor acquisition, and suggest that IL 2 may be capable, at least under some conditions, of increasing expression of IL 2 receptors on human T lymphocytes. 相似文献

Induction of IL 2 receptor expression and cytotoxicity of thymocytes by stimulation with TCF1 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

We investigated the role of T cell cytotoxicity inducing factor 1 (TCF1) in the induction of a cytotoxic T cell response. We found that help-deficient thymocyte cultures supplied with saturating amounts of purified IL 2 did not develop CTL in a 5-day culture. The expression of cytotoxicity was dependent on the addition of TCF1 derived from the T cell hybridoma K15. TCF1 also induced proliferation of thymocytes in the presence of IL 2. Only the PNA- thymocyte subpopulation responded to TCF1 with proliferation and cytotoxicity in the presence of IL 2. The monokine IL 1 also induced proliferation in this subpopulation but failed to induce cytotoxicity. IL 1 was further distinguished from TCF1 by inhibition of IL 1-induced but not TCF1-induced proliferation by anti-IL 1 antibodies. In addition, using anti-IL 2 receptor antibodies (AMT 13), we showed that TCF1 in the presence of IL 2 substantially increased IL 2 receptor expression in thymocytes. IL 1 had the same effect on induction of IL 2 receptor expression as TCF1. Because some effects of IL 1 and TCF1 are distinct and some overlap, we discuss whether IL 1 and TCF1 induce different subsets of PNA- thymocytes. 相似文献

The effect of monoclonal anti-insulin receptor antibodies on the intrinsic kinase activity of solubilized receptor was investigated. Antibodies for six distinct epitopes stimulated receptor autophosphorylation and kinase activity towards exogenous substrates. This effect of antibodies was seen only within a narrow concentration range and monovalent antibody fragments were ineffective. Evidence was obtained by sucrose density-gradient centrifugation for the formation of antibody-receptor complexes which involved both inter- and intra-molecular cross-linking, although stimulation of autophosphorylation appeared to be preferentially associated with the latter. There was partial additivity between the effects of insulin and antibodies in stimulating autophosphorylation, although the sites of phosphorylation appeared identical on two-dimensional peptide maps. Antibodies for two further epitopes failed to activate receptor kinase, but inhibited its stimulation by insulin. The effects of antibodies on kinase activity paralleled their metabolic effects on adipocytes, except for one antibody which was potently insulin-like in its metabolic effects, but which antagonized insulin stimulation of kinase activity. It is concluded that antibodies activate the receptor by cross-linking subunits rather than by reacting at specific epitopes. The ability of some antibodies to activate receptor may depend on receptor environment as well as the disposition of epitopes. 相似文献

Direct activation of human resting T cells by IL 2: the role of an IL 2 receptor distinct from the Tac protein 总被引:28,自引:0,他引:28

High concentrations of interleukin 2 (IL 2) were shown to produce a delayed but pronounced proliferation of purified resting T cells in the apparent absence of other activation signals. Because these stimulatory effects of IL 2 occurred in the absence of detectable Tac+ cells, the possibility that IL 2 might be initially interacting with an IL 2 binding protein distinct from the Tac protein was studied. Chemical cross-linking studies with 125I-IL 2 revealed the presence of an IL 2 binding protein distinct from the Tac protein on the surface of these unstimulated T cells. This second IL 2 receptor has an estimated molecular size of 70,000 daltons, lacks reactivity with the anti-Tac antibody, and appears to be identical to the p70 protein recently proposed as a component of the high affinity IL 2 receptor. Scatchard analysis of IL 2 binding assays performed with the unactivated T cells revealed approximately 600 to 700 p70 sites per cell and an apparent Kd of 340 pM. These data indicate that the p70 protein present on resting T cells binds IL 2 with an intermediate affinity compared with the previously recognized high and low affinity forms of the receptor and may account for the high concentration of IL 2 needed to induce resting T cell proliferation. To investigate the early biologic consequences of IL 2 binding to the p70 protein, potential changes in the expression of genes involved in T cell activation were examined. Northern blotting revealed the rapid induction of c-myc, c-myb, and Tac mRNA after stimulation of resting T cells with a high concentration of IL 2. The anti-Tac antibody did not inhibit IL 2 induced expression of these genes, suggesting that the p70 protein rather than the Tac antigen or the high affinity IL 2 receptor complex mediated this signal. However, in contrast to these early activation events, the anti-Tac antibody significantly inhibited IL 2 induced T cell proliferation. This finding implicates the high affinity form of the IL 2 receptor in the proliferative response of the IL 2 activated T cells. Thus these data support a two step model for the induction of resting T cell proliferation by high doses of IL 2 involving the initial generation of an activation or "competence" signal through the p70 protein and a subsequent proliferation or "progression" signal through the high affinity form of the receptor. 相似文献

Regulation of the alternative pathway of T cell activation by anti-T3 monoclonal antibody 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7

T cell activation may be triggered either through the T3-Ti antigen receptor complex or via an alternative macrophage-independent pathway involving the 50KD T11 sheep erythrocyte-binding glycoprotein. Monoclonal antibodies anti-T11(2) and anti-T11(3), directed at distinct epitopes of the T11 molecule, trigger mature T cells to proliferate and express their functional programs, and induce expression of IL 2 receptors on both T3+ and T3- thymocytes. We now show that a non-mitogenic anti-T3 antibody blocks activation via the T11 pathway of not only peripheral blood T cells, but also T3+ thymocytes. Anti-T3 does not affect surface expression of T11 or the rapid augmentation of T11(3) expression after incubation of cells with anti-T11(2). However, anti-T3 inhibits generation of IL 2 receptors and production of IL 2 by T lineage cells cultured with anti-T11(2) plus anti-T11(3). In contrast, modulation of the T11 molecule by a non-mitogenic anti-T11 antibody does not inhibit activation of T cells by a mitogenic anti-T3 antibody. The ability of anti-T3 to block expression of IL 2 receptors on both thymocytes and mature T cells activated by the T11 pathway suggests that a regulatory interaction may be important during T cell ontogeny to provide a mechanism for inhibiting expansion of autoreactive clones. 相似文献

Interleukin 2 (IL 2) up-regulates its own receptor on a subset of human unprimed peripheral blood lymphocytes and triggers their proliferation 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
A Harel-Bellan J Bertoglio A Quillet C Marchiol H Wakasugi Z Mishall D Fradelizi 《Journal of immunology (Baltimore, Md. : 1950)》1986,136(7):2463-2469
Several reports indicate that human peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) seeded in culture with purified or recombinant interleukin 2 (IL 2) immediately after separation from the blood display a substantial level of proliferation at day 5 or 6, even in the absence of any activating signal. The spontaneously IL 2 proliferating cells are large lymphocytes, and they co-purify on a Percoll gradient in the large granular lymphocytes (third (LGL) fraction) together with the natural killer (NK) activity. When LGL were separated into NKH1 (an NK-specific surface marker)-positive and NKH1-negative cells by fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS), proliferating cells were mainly found in the NKH1-negative fraction. On the contrary, when cells from Percoll fraction 3 were separated into OKT3-negative and positive cells, the majority of the proliferating cell was found in the OKT3-positive cells. These results indicate that spontaneously IL 2 proliferating (SIP) cells most probably belong to the T cell lineage, but are distinct from NK cells. Surprisingly, cells from this Percoll fraction examined immediately after separation from the blood do not express detectable amounts of IL 2 receptors as assessed by three different techniques: binding of [3H]IL 2, binding of [125I]anti-Tac antibodies, and FACS analysis with the use of anti-Tac antibodies. However, after 18 hr of culture in IL 2-supplemented medium, 5 to 7% of these cells became Tac-positive by FACS analysis. Additional analysis of IL 2 receptor induced in culture with IL 2 was performed by [125I]anti-TAC binding and by [3H]IL 2 binding. Scatchard analysis of [3H]IL 2 binding, in the range of concentrations leading to the detection of high-affinity binding sites, showed an affinity constant similar to that of conventional phytohemagglutinin blasts. The role of IL 2/IL 2 receptor interaction in the proliferation process was confirmed by the fact that proliferation, in contrast with NK activation, was clearly inhibited by anti-Tac antibodies. When LGL activated with IL 2 for 60 hr were sorted into Tac+ and Tac- cells, equal levels of NK activity was found in the two fractions. Proliferation, however, was only observed in the Tac+ population. We interpret these results to indicate that SIP cells are preactivated cells circulating in the blood. They are large cells and represent a very small proportion of circulating lymphocytes (0.3%). They express a subliminal amount of IL 2 receptor. Cultivated in the presence of IL 2, IL 2 receptor expression is enhanced to a detectable level, and the SIP cells begin to proliferate. These SIP cells could be activated T cells present in every normal individual. 相似文献

Interleukin 1 (IL 1), IL 6, and tumor necrosis factor (TNF) are typical examples of multifunctional cytokines involved in the regulation of the immune response, hematopoiesis, and inflammation. Their functions are widely overlapping but each shows its own characteristic properties. IL 6 was originally identified as a B cell differentiation factor, and thus one of the major functions of IL 6 is antibody induction. Transgenic mice have provided much needed information on the pathophysiological role of cytokines. With IL 6 transgenic mice, deregulation of the IL 6 expression was suggested to be involved in the generation of plasmacytoma/myeloma and mesangium proliferative glomerulonephritis. The cis-regulatory elements and trans-acting nuclear factor (or factors) for the IL 6 expression (NF-IL 6) have been identified. NF-IL 6 was shown to be a member of a C/EBP family, and the possible involvement of NF-IL 6 not only in the IL 6 regulation but also in the induction of various acute phase proteins was also observed. The findings suggest the presence of a positive regulatory loop in acute-phase reaction. IL 1 receptor belongs to an Ig superfamily, but the IL 6 receptor is a member of a newly identified cytokine receptor family. The IL 6 receptor system was shown to be composed of a ligand binding chain and a signal-transducing molecule. IL 6 was found to trigger the association of these two polypeptide chains. This unique mechanism may be applied to other cytokine receptor systems. 相似文献
