Natural killer (NK) cells express an activating receptor, 2B4, that enhances cellular cytotoxicity. Upon NK cell activation by ligation of 2B4, the intracellular domain of 2B4 associates with the X-linked lymphoproliferative disease (XLP) gene product, signaling lymphocytic activation molecule-associated protein/SH2D1A (SAP/SH2D1A). Defective intracellular association of 2B4 with mutated SAP/SH2D1A is likely to underlie the defects in cytotoxicity observed in NK cells from patients with XLP. We report here a role for phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) in the recruitment and association of SAP/SH2D1A to 2B4 in human NK cells. The activation of normal NK cells by ligation of 2B4 leads to the phosphorylation of 2B4, recruitment of SAP/SH2D1A, and association of the p85 regulatory subunit of PI3K. The inhibition of PI3K enzymatic activity with either wortmannin or LY294002 prior to 2B4 ligation does not alter the association of 2B4 with the p85 subunit but prevents the recruitment of SAP/SH2D1A to 2B4. In addition, PI3K inhibitors significantly diminish the cytotoxic function of primary NK cells. This observed inhibition of cytotoxicity, present in normal NK cells, was less apparent or absent in NK cells derived from a patient with XLP. These data indicate that the cytotoxicity of activated NK cells is mediated by the association of 2B4 and SAP/SH2D1A, and that this association is dependent upon the activity of PI3K. 相似文献

Murine 2B4 (CD244) is a cell surface receptor expressed on all NK cells, gammadelta-T cells, a subset of CD8(+) T cells, and all CD14(+) monocytes. 2B4 binds to CD48 with high affinity, and cross-linking 2B4 with anti-2B4 Ab in vitro causes activation of NK cells. To study its physiological role, we have generated, by gene targeting, mice deficient in the expression of this cell surface molecule. The expression of lymphoid cell surface markers on PBMC and splenocytes of mice homozygous for the mutation in 2B4 (2B4(-/-)) is identical to that in wild-type mice. However, thymocytes from female 2B4(-/-) mice, but not male 2B4(-/-) mice, have an increase in the immature CD4(-)/CD8(-) population. To investigate the in vivo role of 2B4, wild-type and 2B4(-/-) mice were injected with CD48(+) and CD48(-) metastatic B16 melanoma cells. Wild-type mice rejected CD48(+) melanoma poorly compared with CD48(-) tumor cells, suggesting that ligation of 2B4 by CD48 on melanoma cells is inhibitory. In keeping with this, male 2B4(-/-) mice showed enhanced ability to reject CD48(+) melanoma cells. However, female 2B4(-/-) mice poorly rejected both CD48(+) and CD48(-) melanoma cells, revealing a gender-specific and CD48-independent defect in mice lacking 2B4. In vitro and in vivo experiments reveal a complex role of NK cells in gender specificity. 相似文献

Several genes within a syntenic region of human and mouse chromosome 1 are associated with predisposition to systemic lupus erythematosus. Analyses of lupus-prone congenic mice have pointed to an important role for the signaling lymphocyte activation molecule family (slamf)6 surface receptor in lupus pathogenesis. In this article, we demonstrate that a second member of the Slamf gene family, Slamf4 (Cd244), contributes to lupus-related autoimmunity. B6.Slamf4(-/-) mice spontaneously develop activated CD4 T cells and B cells and increased numbers of T follicular helper cells and a proportion develop autoantibodies to nuclear Ags. B6.Slamf4(-/-) mice also exhibit markedly increased autoantibody production in the B6.C-H-2bm12/KhEg → B6 transfer model of lupus. Although slamf4 function is best characterized in NK cells, the enhanced humoral autoimmunity of B6.Slamf4(-/-) mice is NK cell independent, as judged by depletion studies. Taken together, our findings reveal that slamf4 has an NK cell-independent negative regulatory role in the pathogenesis of lupus a normally non-autoimmune prone genetic background. 相似文献

Functional requirement for SAP in 2B4-mediated activation of human natural killer cells as revealed by the X-linked lymphoproliferative syndrome 总被引:16,自引:0,他引:16

X-linked lymphoproliferative syndrome (XLP) is an immunodeficiency characterized by life-threatening infectious mononucleosis and EBV-induced B cell lymphoma. The gene mutated in XLP encodes SLAM (signaling lymphocytic activation molecule-associated protein)-associated protein (SAP), a small SH2 domain-containing protein. SAP associates with 2B4 and SLAM, activating receptors expressed by NK and T cells, and prevents recruitment of SH2 domain-containing protein tyrosine phosphatase-2 SHP-2) to the cytoplasmic domains of these receptors. The phenotype of XLP may therefore result from perturbed signaling through SAP-associating receptors. We have addressed the functional consequence of SAP deficiency on 2B4-mediated NK cell activation. Ligating 2B4 on normal human NK cells with anti-2B4 mAb or interaction with transfectants bearing the 2B4 ligand CD48 induced NK cell cytotoxicity. In contrast, ligation of 2B4 on NK cells from a SAP-deficient XLP patient failed to initiate cytotoxicity. Despite this, CD2 or CD16-induced cytotoxicity of SAP-deficient NK cells was similar to that of normal NK cells. Thus, selective impairment of 2B4-mediated NK cell activation may contribute to the immunopathology of XLP. 相似文献

We have previously demonstrated that the NKR repertoire is profoundly disrupted by SHIP deficiency. This repertoire disruption is characterized by receptor dominance where inhibitory signals from 2B4 repress killing of complex targets expressing MHC class I and activating ligands. In this study, we examine the molecular basis of receptor dominance in SHIP-/- NK cells. In this study, we show that in SHIP-/- NK cells there is a pronounced bias toward the 2B4 long isoform. We have also characterized signaling molecules recruited to 2B4 in SHIP-/- NK cells. Interestingly, we find that approximately 10- to 16-fold more Src homology region 2 domain-containing phosphatase 1 (SHP1) is recruited to 2B4 in SHIP-/- NK cells when compared with wild type. Consistent with SHP1 overrecruitment, treatment with sodium orthovanadate or a novel inhibitor with micromolar activity against SHP1 restores the ability of SHIP-/- NK cells to kill Rae1+ RMA and M157+ targets. These findings define the molecular basis for hyporesponsiveness by SHIP-deficient NK cells. 相似文献

Triggering of murine NK cells by CD40 and CD86 (B7-2) 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

NK cell-mediated cytotoxicity is regulated by both triggering and inhibitory signals. The interaction between MHC class I molecules expressed on target cells and specific MHC class I-binding receptors expressed by NK cells generally leads to inhibition of lysis. We have shown recently that CD80 (B7-1) in mice and CD40 in humans trigger NK cell-mediated cytotoxicity in vitro. In the present study, we show that murine CD40 and CD86 (B7-2) trigger murine NK cell-mediated cytotoxicity in vitro when expressed on tumor cells. Preincubation of the transfected cell lines with anti-CD40 F(ab')2 fragments or cytolytic T lymphocyte-associated Ag-4-Ig (CTLA-4-Ig) before the cytotoxic assay abolished the triggering effect. Furthermore, radiolabeled CD40- and B7-2-expressing cells were rapidly eliminated in vivo in an NK cell-dependent manner. NK cells from CD40 ligand (CD40L)-/- or CD28-/- mice were triggered by tumor cells transfected with CD40 and B7-2, respectively, and these transfectants were rapidly eliminated in vivo when inoculated into CD40L-/- and CD28-/- mice. This suggests that the CD40 and B7-2 molecules can interact with receptors on NK cells other than CD40L and CD28, respectively, and that these may account for some of the reactivities observed in the present study. Collectively, these data demonstrate that 1) costimulatory molecules, other than B7-1, can modulate NK cell responses in vitro, 2) they can also affect NK cell-dependent responses in vivo, and 3) parts of these reactions are independent of CD28 and CD40L. 相似文献

NK cell inhibitory receptors prevent tyrosine phosphorylation of the activation receptor 2B4 (CD244) 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
2B4 is an NK cell activation receptor that can provide a co-stimulatory signal to other activation receptors and whose mode of signal transduction is still unknown. We show that cross-linking of 2B4 on NK cells results in its rapid tyrosine phosphorylation, implying that this initial step in 2B4 signaling does not require coligation of other receptors. Ligation of 2B4 in the context of an NK cell-target cell interaction leads to 2B4 tyrosine phosphorylation, target cell lysis, and IFN-gamma release. Coligation of 2B4 with the inhibitory receptors killer cell Ig-like receptor (KIR)2DL1 or CD94/NKG2 completely blocks NK cell activation. The rapid tyrosine phosphorylation of 2B4 observed upon contact of NK cells with sensitive target cells is abrogated when KIR2DL1 or CD94/NKG2 are engaged by their cognate MHC class I ligand on resistant target cells. These results demonstrate that NK inhibitory receptors can interfere with a step as proximal as phosphorylation of an activation receptor. 相似文献

B cell sensitivity to natural killing: correlation with target cell stage of differentiation and state of activation 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
When 13 B cell lines were phenotyped with a panel of B cell, stage-specific monoclonal antibodies and ordered with respect to differentiation state; their sensitivity to natural killer (NK) cell-mediated conjugate formation and cytolysis was found to be stage dependent. Target cell lines expressing an early B cell phenotype (B1+B2-CALLA+DU-ALL1 +/-) or an intermediate phenotype (B1+B2+CALLA-DU-ALL1+) were NK resistant. Late phenotypic B cells (B1+B2-CALLA-DU-ALL1-) were highly susceptible to NK cytolysis. Individual B cell lines when induced with sodium butyrate or retinoic acid expressed altered B cell phenotype and NK susceptibility. For example, SB, an intermediate B cell line and initially NK resistant, when induced to express a later B cell phenotype became NK sensitive. BJA.B, a late B cell line and initially NK sensitive, when induced to differentiate lost most of its sensitivity to natural killing. Since loss of the B2 antigen is associated with B cell activation, we further phenotyped the B cell lines and induced B cell lines with the 4F2 and 5E9 (anti-transferrin receptor) monoclonal reagents. All cell lines tested expressed each of these antigens, but with varying intensities. While the intensity of 4F2 expression appeared to correlate well with NK sensitivity on both resting and differentiated B cell lines, the intensity of 5E9 expression did not. Peripheral blood B cells express a similar pattern of reactivity to natural killing when stimulated with pokeweed mitogen (PWM) in vitro. B cell sensitivity to NK-mediated events peaked at day 4 of incubation and correlated with the loss of the B2 antigen and acquisition of the 4F2 and 5E9 antigens; sensitivity to natural killing was diminished in the presence of the PCA-1 antigen. The expression of the NK-susceptible phenotype among B cells appears to be differentiation stage- and activation state-dependent. It is during this period of ontogeny that the NK cell may cytolytically regulate the B cell transition to a plasma cell. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Essential (multigenic) hypertension is a complex multifactorial disease whose genetic etiology has not been unraveled on a major locus-effect investigative paradigm. As with other complex genetic diseases, applying an interacting loci paradigm could be critical in the elucidation of genetic determinants. Having defined the alpha1 Na,K-ATPase (alpha1NK) as a hypertension susceptibility gene in Dahl salt-sensitive (Dahl S) rats, we determined whether alphaINK interacts with another renal epithelial Na transporter to increase susceptibility to salt-sensitive hypertension. We focused on alpha1NK and Na,K,2Cl-cotransporter (NKC) as an a priori candidate interacting gene pair because they comprise a functionally linked Na transport system in renal thick ascending limb of Henle (TALH) epithelial cells and exhibit altered function in prehypertensive Dahl S rats in contrast to Dahl salt-resistant normotensive (Dahl R) rats. MATERIAL AND METHOD: Cosegregation analysis of alphaNK and NKC loci was done in a (Dahl S x Dahl R) F2 cohort characterized for blood pressure by radiotelemetry using the D2mghII microsatellite marker in the alpha1NK gene and the D3mit3 microsatellite marker close to the NKC gene (NKC/D3mit3 locus). Single locus and digenic analyses were performed to establish the individual and interactive genetic contribution to salt-sensitive hypertension. Molecular analysis was then done to support the NKC gene as the likely candidate gene interacting with alpha1NK in Dahl salt-sensitive hypertension pathogenesis. RESULTS: Compared with respective single locus analysis, digenic analysis of 96 F2 (Dahl S x Dahl R) hybrid male rats revealed cosegregation of alpha1NK and NKC/D3mit3 loci as interacting pair with salt-sensitive hypertension with markedly increased significance for systolic (one-way ANOVA p = 10(-6)), diastolic (p = 10(-5)), and mean arterial (p = 10(-6)) blood pressures. Concordantly, two-way ANOVA detected interaction between alpha1NK and NKC loci in determining the levels of systolic (p = 0.004), diastolic (p = 0.008), and mean arterial (p = 0.006) pressures. To unravel potential NKC molecular dysfunction(s) involved in hypertension pathogenesis, we investigated putative differences between Dahl S and Dahl R rats in nucleotide sequence and isoform gene expression of the renal-specific Na,K,2Cl-cotransporter. Molecular analysis revealed an inversion of alternatively spliced NKC-isoform ratios (4B:4A:4F) between Dahl S and Dahl R prehypertensive kidneys supported by four mutations in intron-3 immediately upstream to alternatively spliced exons 4B, 4A, and 4F. No nucleotide changes were detected within the aminoacid encoding exons of NKC. CONCLUSIONS: Altogether, these current data and previous characterization of the role of the Q276L alpha1NK molecular variant in Dahl S hypertension provide cumulative compelling evidence that alpha1NK and NKC/D3mit3 loci interact to increase susceptibility to hypertension in Dahl S rats and that NKC is the likely candidate gene that interacts with alpha 1NK. More importantly, the data substantiate gene interaction as an operative mechanism in multigenic hypertension. 相似文献
