Abstract:
:The major site of B-cell genesis in the sheep is the ileal Peyer's patch (PP). The B cells in the ileal PP undergo both extensive proliferation and massive death in association with an ongoing diversification of the immunoglobulin repertoire by somatic hypermutation. Most, if not all, the B-cell death in the ileal PP is due to apoptosis. When placed in culture, ileal PP B cells undergo rapid apoptosis. Here, we investigated the expression of the proto-oncogene bcl-2 in ileal PP cells in situ and in culture. Bcl-2 expression has been correlated with the prevention of apoptosis in many cell types. Western blotting, using anti-Bcl-2 monoclonal antibodies, revealed that a Bcl-2-reactive protein of 26,000 MW was expressed in ileal mesenteric lymph node cells, splenocytes and thymocytes from sheep, but was barely detectable in ileal PP B cells in situ or in culture. However, Bcl-2 expression could be markedly induced in ileal PP B cells cultured with phorbol ester and Ca2+ ionophore, a procedure that is known to rescue these cells from apoptosis. We hypothesize that those few B cells that survive a selection event in the ileal PP may begin to express elevated levels of Bcl-2 as they escape from the apoptotic pathway.
