Ras Activation

CD28 is a 44-kD homodimer expressed on the surface of the majority of human T cells that provides an important costimulus for T cell activation. The biochemical basis of the CD28 accessory signals is poorly understood. Triggering of the T cell antigen receptor (TCR) activates the p21ras proteins. Here we show that ligation of CD28 by a monoclonal antibody (mAb) also stimulates p21ras and induces Ras-dependent events such as stimulation of the microtubule-associated protein (MAP) kinase ERK2 and hyperphosphorylation of Raf-1. One physiological ligand for CD28 is the molecule B7-1. In contrast to the effect of CD28 mAb, the present studies show that interactions between CD28 and B7-1 do not stimulate p21ras signaling pathways. Two substrates for TCR-regulated protein tyrosine kinases (PTKs) have been implicated in p21ras activation in T cells: p95vav and a 36-kD protein that associates with a complex of Grb2 and the Ras exchange protein Sos. Triggering CD28 with both antibodies and B7-1 activates cellular PTKs, and we have exploited the differences between antibodies and B7-1 for p21ras activation in an attempt to identify critical PTK-controlled events for Ras activation in T cells. The data show that antibodies against TCR or CD28 induce tyrosine phosphorylation of both Vav and p36. B7-1 also induces Vav tyrosine phosphorylation but has no apparent effect on tyrosine phosphorylation of the Grb2-associated p36 protein. The intensity of the Vav tyrosine phosphorylation is greater in B7-1 than in TCR-stimulated cells. Moreover the kinetics of Vav tyrosine phosphorylation is prolonged in the B7-1-stimulated cells. These studies show that for CD28 signaling, the activation of p21ras correlates more closely with p36 tyrosine phosphorylation than with Vav tyrosine phosphorylation. However, the experiments demonstrate that Vav is a major substrate for B7-activated PTKs and hence could be important in CD28 signal transduction pathway.

Syndrome Protein

Involvement of the Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome protein (WASp) in promoting cell activation requires its release from autoinhibitory structural constraints and has been attributed to WASp association with activated cdc42. Here, however, we show that T cell development and T cell receptor (TCR)-induced proliferation and actin polymerization proceed normally in WASp−/− mice expressing a WASp transgene lacking the cdc42 binding domain. By contrast, mutation of tyrosine residue Y291, identified here as the major site of TCR-induced WASp tyrosine phosphorylation, abrogated induction of WASp tyrosine phosphorylation and its effector activities, including nuclear factor of activated T cell transcriptional activity, actin polymerization, and immunological synapse formation. TCR-induced WASp tyrosine phosphorylation was also disrupted in T cells lacking Fyn, a kinase shown here to bind, colocalize with, and phosphorylate WASp. By contrast, WASp was tyrosine dephosphorylated by protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP)-PEST, a tyrosine phosphatase shown here to interact with WASp via proline, serine, threonine phosphatase interacting protein (PSTPIP)1 binding. Although Fyn enhanced WASp-mediated Arp2/3 activation and was required for synapse formation, PTP-PEST combined with PSTPIP1 inhibited WASp-driven actin polymerization and synapse formation. These observations identify key roles for Fyn and PTP-PEST in regulating WASp and imply that inducible WASp tyrosine phosphorylation can occur independently of cdc42 binding, but unlike the cdc42 interaction, is absolutely required for WASp contributions to T cell activation.

In vitro experiments using purified rat CD4+ T cells in primary and secondary mixed leukocyte cultures (MLC) have been carried out to explore the mechanism of inhibition of cell-mediated autoimmune disease in the rat by a nondepleting monoclonal antibody (mAb) to CD4. Previous work has shown that W3/25, a mouse anti-rat CD4 mAb of immunoglobulin G1 isotype, completely prevents the development of the paralysis associated with experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE) in Lewis rats, but does so without eliminating the encephalitogenic T cells. The in vitro experiments described in this study have shown that when CD4+ T cells were activated in the presence of the anti-CD4 mAb in a primary MLC, the synthesis of interferon (IFN) gamma, but not interleukin (IL) 2, was completely inhibited. After secondary stimulation, now in the absence of the mAb, the synthesis of IL-4 and IL-13 mRNA was greatly enhanced compared with that observed from CD4+ T cells derived from primary cultures in which the mAb was omitted. As IL-4 and IL-13 are known to antagonize cell-mediated immune reactions, and as EAE is cell-mediated disease, the data suggest that the W3/25 mAb controls EAE by modifying the cytokine repertoire of T cells that respond to the encephalitogen. The capacity for the mAb to suppress IFN-gamma synthesis provides, in part, an explanation for this change in cytokine production. These findings are discussed in terms of what is known of the factors that determine which cytokine genes are expressed on T cell activation. Possible implications for the evolution of T cell responses in human immunodeficiency virus infection are also discussed.
