Latent membrane protein 1 (LMP1) of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is an integral membrane protein which has transforming potential and is necessary but not sufficient for B-cell immortalization by EBV. LMP1 molecules aggregate in the plasma membrane and recruit tumour necrosis factor receptor (TNF-R) -associated factors (TRAFs) which are presumably involved in the signalling cascade leading to NF-kappaB activation by LMP1. Comparable activities are mediated by CD40 and other members of the TNF-R family, which implies that LMP1 could function as a receptor. LMP1 lacks extended extracellular domains similar to beta-adrenergic receptors but, in contrast, it also lacks any motifs involved in ligand binding. By using LMP1 mutants which can be oligomerized at will, we show that the function of LMP1 in 293 cells and B cells is solely dependent on oligomerization of its carboxy-terminus. Biochemically, oligomerization is an intrinsic property of the transmembrane domain of wild-type LMP1 and causes a constitutive phenotype which can be conferred to the signalling domains of CD40 or the TNF-2 receptor. In EBV, immortalized B cells cross-linking in conjunction with membrane targeting of the carboxy-terminal signalling domain of LMP1 is sufficient for its biological activities. Thus, LMP1 acts like a constitutively activated receptor whose biological activities are ligand-independent. 相似文献

TRAF2 plays a central role in TNF-induced signalling to NF-κB and JNK/p38 MAPK. To better understand the molecular mechanisms that mediate this dual function of TRAF2, we performed a yeast two-hybrid screening for TRAF2 interacting proteins using the Sos recruitment system. This resulted in the identification of the E3 ubiquitin ligase Smurf2 as a TRAF2 binding protein. TRAF2 overexpression was shown to trigger Smurf2 ubiquitination and the formation of a TNF-R2/Smurf2 complex. Smurf2 on its turn promoted TNF-R2 ubiquitination and the relocalization of TNF-R2 as well as TRAF2 to a detergent-insoluble cell fraction. This was associated with enhanced TNF-R2-induced JNK activation, whereas TNF-R2-induced NF-κB activation remained unaffected. These results suggest an important role for Smurf2 binding to TRAF2 in determining specific signalling outputs of TNF-R2. 相似文献

CD28 is one of the most important co-stimulatory receptors necessary for full T lymphocyte activation. By binding its cognate ligands, B7.1/CD80 or B7.2/CD86, expressed on the surface of professional antigen presenting cells (APC), CD28 initiates several signalling cascades, which qualitatively and quantitatively support T cell receptor (TCR) signalling. More recent data evidenced that human CD28 can also act as a TCR-independent signalling unit, by delivering specific signals, which regulate the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokine/chemokines. Despite the enormous progresses made in identifying the mechanisms and molecules involved in CD28 signalling properties, much remains to be elucidated, especially in the light of the functional differences observed between human and mouse CD28. In this review we provide an overview of the current mechanisms and molecules through which CD28 support TCR signalling and highlight recent findings on the specific signalling motifs that regulate the unique pro-inflammatory activity of human CD28. 相似文献

The requirement that CD4+ helper T cells recognize antigen in association with class II Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) encoded molecules constrains T cells to activation through intercellular interaction. The cell biology of the interactions between CD4+ T cells and antigen-presenting cells includes multipoint intermolecular interactions that probably involve aggregation of both polymorphic and monomorphic T cell surface molecules. Such aggregations have been shown in vitro to markedly enhance and, in some cases, induce T cell activation. The production of T-derived lymphokines that have been implicated in B cell activation is dependent on the T cell receptor for antigen and its associated CD3 signalling complex. T-dependent help for B cell activation is therefore similarly MHC-restricted and involves T-B intercellular interaction. Recent reports that describe antigen-independent B cell activation through coculture with T cells activated by anti-T-cell receptor or anti-CD3 antibodies suggest that cellular interaction with T cells, independent of antigen presentation or lymphokine secretion, induces or triggers B cells to become responsive to T-derived lymphokines, and that this may be an integral component of the physiological, antigen- and MHC-restricted T-dependent B cell activation that leads to antibody production. 相似文献

The role of B7 costimulation in T-cell immunity. 总被引:17,自引:0,他引:17
CD4+ T cells are considered to be the major controlling element of the adaptive immune response. They recognize foreign peptides by interaction of the T cell receptor (TCR) with peptide complexed to major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II molecules on the surface of antigen presenting cells (APC). Once activated, CD4+ T cells orchestrate the various phases of the immune response. They are responsible for the production of numerous cytokines, which activate specific immune effector cell populations including B cells, eosinophils, mast cells and macrophages. Not surprisingly, the activation of CD4+ T cells needs to be tightly regulated and is subject to finely tuned control mechanisms. The requirement for a second or 'costimulatory' signal, in addition to the antigenic signal, provides a key element for the exquisite control of T cell activation. One of the major signalling pathways responsible for delivery of this costimulatory signal is induced by interaction of CD28 on T cells with B7 molecules found only on APC. The present review outlines our current understanding of the physiological role of B7 costimulatory signals in regulating CD4+ T cell responses. 相似文献

Several members of the tumour necrosis factor receptor (TNF-R) superfamily can induce cell death. For TNF-R1, Fas/APO-1, DR3, DR6, TRAIL-R1 and TRAIL-R2, a conserved 'death domain' in the intracellular region couples these receptors to activation of caspases. However, it is not yet known how TNF receptor family members lacking a death domain, such as TNF-R2, CD40, LT-betaR, CD27 or CD30, execute their death-inducing capability. Here we demonstrate in different cellular systems that cytotoxic effects induced by TNF-R2, CD40 and CD30 are mediated by endogenous production of TNF and autotropic or paratropic activation of TNF-R1. In addition, stimulation of TNF-R2 and CD40 synergistically enhances TNF-R1-induced cytotoxicity. These findings describe a novel pro-apoptotic mechanism induced by some members of the TNF-R family. 相似文献

T cell dependent humoral immune responses are initiated by the activation of naive B cells in the T cell areas of the secondary lymphoid tissues. This primary B cell activation leads to migration of germinal center (GC) cell precursors into B cell follicles where they engage follicular dendritic cells (FDC) and T cells, and differentiate into memory B cells or plasma cells. Both B cell homing to the GC and interaction with FDC critically depend on integrin-mediated adhesion. We have recently indentified the c-met-encoded receptor tyrosine kinase and its ligand, the growth and motility factor hepatocyte growth factor/scatter factor (HGF/SF), as a novel paracrine signalling pathway regulating B cell adhesion (van der Voort et al., 1997, J. Exp. Med. 185, 2121–2131). The c-Met protein is expressed on B cells localized in the dark zone of the GC (centroblasts) and is induced by CD40 plus BCR ligation. Stimulation of c-Met with HGF/SF. which is produced at high levels by tonsillar stromal cells and FDC, leads to receptor phosphorylation and to enhanced integrin-mediated adhesion of B cells to both VCAM-l and fibronectin. Interestingly, these responses to HGF/SF are promoted by heparan-sulfate proteoglycan forms of CD44 (CD44-HS). Like c-Met, CD44-HS is induced on B cells by CD40 ligation. It efficiently binds HGF/SF and strongly promotes signalling through c-Met. We conclude that integrin regulation during antigen specific B cell differentiation involves cross-talk between the HGF/SF-c-Met pathway and CD44-HS. 相似文献

This study reports early B and T cell signaling events during cognate interactions between a human B cell line pulsed with peptide and an Ag-specific T cell clone. As has been previously reported, peptide in the context of the appropriate class II molecule stimulated a rise in intracellular calcium [Ca2+]i in the Ag-specific T cell clone. The activation of the T cell clone was associated with a reciprocal rise in [Ca2+]i in the B cells. Engagement of receptors on the B cell surface by the T cell also was associated with inositol phospholipid turnover comparable to that elicited by stimulation through sIg. Early signaling events in B cells can therefore be stimulated in cognate interactions with Ag-specific T cells, without the direct engagement of Ig receptors. A class II deficient B lymphoblastoid mutant, 6.1.6, which was incapable of presenting peptide to the T cell clone, could be stimulated to produce a rise in [Ca2+]i if the T cell clone was activated by monoclonal antibodies to CD3. Therefore, the interaction of class II molecules on the B cell with the TCR and/or the CD4 accessory molecule was not essential for T-dependent B cell activation. However, T-dependent signalling of B cells was profoundly inhibited by mAb to CD18 (beta-chain of LFA-1) on the T cell or CD54 (ICAM-1) on the B cell, demonstrating the importance of this pair of adhesion molecules in early T-B cell interactions. 相似文献

In lymphoid follicles, CD4+ T lymphocytes provide contact-dependent stimuli to B cells that are critical for the generation of specific antibody responses in a process termed Th function. The CD4+ T cell-restricted surface activation protein, 5c8 Ag (T-BAM), has recently been shown to be a component of the contact-dependent helper signal to B cells. To further dissect this process, we utilized a Jurkat T cell lymphoma clone, termed D1.1, that constitutively expresses T-BAM and activates peripheral B cells to express surface CD23 in a contact-dependent mechanism that is inhibited by mAb anti-T-BAM (5c8). Similar to its effect on peripheral B cells, Jurkat D1.1 activates B cells from lymphoid organs, as well as a B cell lymphoma clone, RAMOS 266,4CN 3F10 (RAMOS 266), to up-regulate surface CD23. Interestingly, mAb to the B cell surface molecule, CD40 (mAb G28-5 and B-B20), inhibit D1.1 induced activation of RAMOS 266 and peripheral and lymphoid B cells. In contrast, mAb to CR2 or the adhesion molecules, LFA1, LFA3, or ICAM-1, have little effect. The inhibitory effect of anti-CD40 mAb on B cell activation induced by D1.1 is specific because anti-CD40 potentiates, rather than inhibits, the up-regulation of CD23 on B cells induced by rIL-4. Moreover, cross-linking CD40 molecules by anti-CD40 mAb bound to Fc gamma RII+ (CD32) L cells induces B cell CD23 expression. In vivo, T-BAM-expressing cells are CD4+ T cells that are restricted to lymphoid organs and are localized in the mantle and centrocytic zones of lymphoid follicles and the spleen periarteriolar lymphoid sheath in association with CD40+ B cells. Taken together, these data demonstrate that T-BAM on T cells and CD40 on B cells are involved in contact-dependent T-B help interactions that occur in lymphoid follicles. 相似文献

CD45 is a leukocyte specific transmembrane glycoprotein and a receptor-like protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP). CD45 can be expressed as several alternatively spliced isoforms that differ in the extracellular domain. The isoforms are regulated in a cell type and activation state-dependent manner, yet their function has remained elusive. The Src family kinase members Lck and Lyn are key substrates for CD45 in T and B lymphocytes, respectively. CD45 lowers the threshold of antigen receptor signalling, which impacts T and B cell activation and development. CD45 also regulates antigen triggered Fc receptor signalling in mast cells and Toll-like receptor (TLR) signalling in dendritic cells, thus broadening the role of CD45 to other recognition receptors involved in adaptive and innate immunity. In addition, CD45 can affect immune cell adhesion and migration and can modulate cytokine production and signalling. Here we review what is known about the substrate specificity and regulation of CD45 and summarise its effect on immune cell signalling pathways, from its established role in T and B antigen receptor signalling to its emerging role regulating innate immune cell recognition and cytokine production. 相似文献

The non-genomic membrane bound oestrogen receptor (mER) regulates intracellular signals through receptor-ligand interactions. The mER, along with G-protein coupled oestrogen receptor GPR 30 (GPER), induces diverse cell signalling pathways in murine lymphocytes. The mER isoform ER-alpha46 has recently been demonstrated in human B and T lymphocytes as an analogue receptor for chemokine CCL18, the signalling events of which are not clearly understood. Ligand-induced mER and GPER signalling events are shared with BCR, CD19 mediated intracellular signalling through phospholipase C, PIP2/IP3/PI3 mediated activation of Akt, MAP kinase, and mTOR. Oestrogen has the ability to induce CD40-mediated activation of B cells. The complete signalling pathways of mER, GPR30 and their interaction with other signals are targeted areas for novel drug development in B cells during infection, autoimmunity and cancer. Therefore, an in depth investigation is critical for determining shared signal outputs during B cell activation. Here, we focus on the mode of action of membrane bound ER in B cells as therapeutic checkpoints. 相似文献

Genetic mutations disrupting the function of signaling lymphocytic activation molecule-associated protein (SAP) lead to T cell intrinsic defects in T cell-dependent Ab responses. To better understand how SAP enables Th cells to help B cells, we first assessed whether molecules important for B cell help are dysregulated in SAP-deficient (SAP knockout (KO)) mice. CD40 ligand (CD40L) expression was enhanced on unpolarized SAP KO T cells; however, Th2 polarization returned their CD40L expression to wild-type levels without rescuing their ability to help B cells. CD40L also localized normally to the site of contact between SAP KO T cells and Ag-bearing B cells. Finally, CD40L-deficient Th cells and SAP KO Th cells differed in their abilities to help B cells in vitro. These data argue that Ab defects caused by SAP deficiency do not result from a loss of CD40L regulation or CD40L function on CD4 T cells. SAP KO Th cells additionally displayed normal patterns of migration and expression of ICOS and CXCR5. Global gene expression was remarkably similar in activated SAP KO vs wild-type T cells, prompting us to investigate whether SAP is necessary for "programming" T cells to become B cell helpers. By restricting SAP expression during differentiation, we determined that SAP is not required during the first 5 days of T cell activation/differentiation to generate Th cells capable of helping B cells. Instead, SAP is necessary for very late stages of differentiation or, most likely, for allowing Th cells to communicate during cognate T:B interactions. 相似文献

T cells play a key role in the control of abnormal B cell proliferation. Factors that play a role in inadequate T cell responses
include absence of expression of costimulatory and adhesion molecules by the malignant B cells and lack of cytotoxic T cells
specific for tumor-associated antigens. A number of approaches have been used to enhance T cell response against malignant
B cells. Agents such as soluble CD40 ligand can enhance expression of costimulatory molecules by the malignant B cells and
improve their ability to activate T cells. Anti-CD3-based bispecific antibodies can retarget T cells toward the tumor cells
irrespective of T cell specificity. We used the V 38C13 murine lymphoma model to assess whether the combination of soluble
CD40 ligand and anti-CD3-based bispecific antibody can enhance T cell activation induced by malignant B cells more effectively
than either approach alone. Expression of CD80, CD86, and ICAM-1 on lymphoma cells was up-regulated by soluble CD40 ligand.
Syngeneic T cells were activated more extensively by lymphoma cells when the lymphoma cells were pre-treated with soluble
CD40 ligand. Bispecific-antibody induced T cell activation was more extensive when lymphoma cells pretreated with soluble
CD40 ligand were present. The combination of soluble CD40 ligand plus bispecific antibody enhanced the median survival of
mice compared to mice treated with bispecific anibody alone. We conclude that pretreatment of tumor cells with agents capable
of inducing costimulatory molecule expression, such as soluble CD40 ligand can enhance the ability of malignant B cells to
activate T cells. This effect is enhanced by the addition of bispecific antibody. The combination of enhanced expression of
costimulatory molecules and retargeting of T cells by bispecific antibody may allow for a more effective T-cell-based immunotherapy.

TNF-alpha and lymphotoxin (LT)alpha have been shown to be important mediators of allograft rejection. TNF-R1 is the principal receptor for both molecules. Mice with targeted genetic deletions of TNF-R1 demonstrate normal development of T and B lymphocytes but exhibit functional defects in immune responses. However, the role of TNF-R1-mediated signaling in solid organ transplant rejection has not been defined. To investigate this question, we performed vascularized heterotopic allogeneic cardiac transplants in TNF-R1-deficient (TNF-R1(-/-)) and wild-type mice. Because all allografts in our protocol expressed TNF-R1, direct antigraft effects of TNF-alpha and LTalpha were not prevented. However, immunoregulatory effects on recipient inflammatory cells by TNF-R1 engagement was eliminated in TNF-R1(-/-) recipients. In our study, cardiac allograft survival was significantly prolonged in TNF-R1(-/-) recipients. Despite this prolonged allograft survival, we detected increased levels of CD8 T cell markers in allografts from TNF-R1(-/-) recipients, suggesting that effector functions, but not T cell recruitment, were blocked. We also demonstrated the inhibition of multiple chemokines and cytokines in allografts from TNF-R1(-/-) recipients including RANTES, IFN-inducible protein-10, lymphotactin, and IL-1R antagonist, as well as altered levels of chemokine receptors. We correlated gene expression with the physiologic process of allograft rejection using self-organizing maps and identified distinct patterns of gene expression in allografts from TNF-R1(-/-) recipients. These findings indicate that in our experimental system TNF-alpha and LTalpha exert profound immunoregulatory effects through TNF-R1. 相似文献

We recently reported that mast cells stimulated via FcepsilonRI aggregation can enhance T cell activation by a TNF-dependent mechanism. However, the molecular mechanisms responsible for such IgE-, Ag- (Ag-), and mast cell-dependent enhancement of T cell activation remain unknown. In this study we showed that mouse bone marrow-derived cultured mast cells express various costimulatory molecules, including members of the B7 family (ICOS ligand (ICOSL), PD-L1, and PD-L2) and the TNF/TNFR families (OX40 ligand (OX40L), CD153, Fas, 4-1BB, and glucocorticoid-induced TNFR). ICOSL, PD-L1, PD-L2, and OX40L also are expressed on APCs such as dendritic cells and can modulate T cell function. We found that IgE- and Ag-dependent mast cell enhancement of T cell activation required secreted TNF; that TNF can increase the surface expression of OX40, ICOS, PD-1, and other costimulatory molecules on CD3(+) T cells; and that a neutralizing Ab to OX40L, but not neutralizing Abs to ICOSL or PD-L1, significantly reduced IgE/Ag-dependent mast cell-mediated enhancement of T cell activation. These results indicate that the secretion of soluble TNF and direct cell-cell interactions between mast cell OX40L and T cell OX40 contribute to the ability of IgE- and Ag-stimulated mouse mast cells to enhance T cell activation. 相似文献

In B lymphocytes, CD40 signals contribute to the activation of Ab secretion, isotype switching, T cell costimulation, and immunological memory. TRAF proteins appear to be important components of the CD40 signal transduction complex, but their roles in the activation of B cell effector functions are poorly understood. We examined the contributions of TNF receptor-associated factor 2 (TRAF2) and TRAF3 to CD40-activated differentiation in mouse B cells transfected with inducible TRAF and dominant-negative TRAF cDNAs. We find that binding of TRAF2 and TRAF3 to CD40 is not required for the induction of Ab secretion, but that both TRAF molecules can regulate the activation process. We demonstrate a negative regulatory role for TRAF3 and that this activity is dependent on the availability of an intact TRAF3-binding site in the cytoplasmic domain of CD40. In contrast, TRAF2 appears to play a positive role in B cell differentiation, and this activity is apparent even when its binding site on CD40 is disrupted. 相似文献

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are known to induce the conversion of activated T cells into regulatory T cells in vitro. The marker CD69 is a target of canonical nuclear factor kappa-B (NF-κB) signalling and is transiently expressed upon activation; however, stable CD69 expression defines cells with immunoregulatory properties. Given its enormous therapeutic potential, we explored the molecular mechanisms underlying the induction of regulatory cells by MSCs. Peripheral blood CD3(+) T cells were activated and cultured in the presence or absence of MSCs. CD4(+) cell mRNA expression was then characterized by microarray analysis. The drug BAY11-7082 (BAY) and a siRNA against v-rel reticuloendotheliosis viral oncogene homolog B (RELB) were used to explore the differential roles of canonical and non-canonical NF-κB signalling, respectively. Flow cytometry and real-time PCR were used for analyses. Genes with immunoregulatory functions, CD69 and non-canonical NF-κB subunits (RELB and NFKB2) were all expressed at higher levels in lymphocytes co-cultured with MSCs. The frequency of CD69(+) cells among lymphocytes cultured alone progressively decreased after activation. In contrast, the frequency of CD69(+) cells increased significantly following activation in lymphocytes co-cultured with MSCs. Inhibition of canonical NF-κB signalling by BAY immediately following activation blocked the induction of CD69; however, inhibition of canonical NF-κB signalling on the third day further induced the expression of CD69. Furthermore, late expression of CD69 was inhibited by RELB siRNA. These results indicate that the canonical NF-κB pathway controls the early expression of CD69 after activation; however, in an immunoregulatory context, late and sustained CD69 expression is promoted by the non-canonical pathway and is inhibited by canonical NF-κB signalling. 相似文献
