Abstract:
:The molecular mechanism of the interleukin (IL) 2-induced differentiation of human B cells has been investigated. The experimental results show that Staphylococcus aureus Cowan strain I (SAC) activation alone induces IL6 secretion from B cells. When B cells were activated by SAC, there was an increased transcription of the IL6 mRNA. It reached the peak level by 6 h and rapidly decreased to an undetectable level within 24 h. The IL6 concentration in the culture supernatants reached the peak at 24-48 h and decreased slightly in the following culture periods. Since IL 2 alone could induce IgG secretion, whether exogenous IL6 was added or not, and IL2 did not increase autocrine IL6 synthesis, it appears that IL2 induces the IL6 responsiveness of SAC-activated B cells to differentiate in the later stage of the culture. The addition of polyclonal anti-IL6 antibody inhibited IgG secretion. The antibody still efficiently blocked IgG secretion up to day 5, indicating an important role of autocrine IL6 in the IL2-driven B cell differentiation. However, the saturation dose of anti-IL6 antibody inhibited 50%-70% of IgG secretion, suggesting that IL2-induced B cell differentiation appears to be mediated by other factors besides IL6.
