Popis: | Recently, it was shown that HLA class II molecules on B cells and activated human T cells can transmit signals involving tyrosine phosphorylation of specific proteins, activation of the inositol phospholipid pathway, and release of cytosolic free Ca2+(Ca2+)i. The regulation of class II induced signals is poorly understood, however, and it remained unknown whether these pathways were coupled or activated independently. Here we show that a specific inhibitor of protein tyrosine kinases (PTK), herbimycin, abrogated DR-induced elevation of (Ca2+)i in activated human T cells. Genistein, belonging to another family of PTK inhibitors, had weaker but significant inhibitory effects on DR-induced (Ca2+)i responses. CD45 crosslinking with DR almost completely abrogated DR-induced (Ca2+)i responses and profoundly changed the PTK profiles. In contrast, CD4 crosslinking with DR enhanced the (Ca2+)i responses, but the inhibitory effect of CD45 dominated over the enhancing effect of CD4. These data indicate that PTK activation is obligatory for DR-induced (Ca2+)i responses, suggesting a linkage between these pathways in class II signal transduction. This conclusion is consistent with our observation that in activated human T cells, class II signals are up regulated by CD4, which is associated with p56lck, and down regulated by CD45, which is a tyrosine phosphatase. |
