Abstract
Abstract
CD38 is a type II transmembrane glycoprotein that is expressed by many cell types including lymphocytes. Signaling through CD38 on B lymphocytes can mediate B cell activation, proliferation, and cytokine secretion. Additionally, coligation of CD38 and the B cell Ag receptor can greatly augment B cell Ag receptor responses. Interestingly, the extracellular domain of CD38 catalyzes the conversion of NAD+ into nicotinamide, ADP-ribose (ADPR), and cyclic ADPR (cADPR). cADPR can induce intracellular calcium release in an inositol trisphosphate-independent manner and has been hypothesized to regulate CD38-mediated signaling. We demonstrate that replacement of the cytoplasmic tail and the transmembrane domains of CD38 did not impair CD38 signaling, coreceptor activity, or enzyme activity. In contrast, independent point mutations in the extracellular domain of CD38 dramatically impaired signal transduction. However, no correlation could be found between CD38-mediated signaling and the capacity of CD38 to catalyze an enzyme reaction and produce cADPR, ADPR, and/or nicotinamide. Instead, we propose that CD38 signaling and coreceptor activity in vitro are regulated by conformational changes induced in the extracellular domain upon ligand/substrate binding, rather than on actual turnover or generation of products.

Abstract
Abstract
Bone marrow stromal cell Ag-1 (BST-1; CD157)-deficient mice were generated to examine the immunologic roles of the molecule in vivo. In BST-1−/− mice, the development of peritoneal B-1 cells was delayed, and CD38low/− B-lineage cells were increased in the bone marrow and spleen. Partial impairment of thymus-independent (TI-2) and thymus-dependent (TD) Ag-specific immune responses was noted in the systemic and mucosal compartments of BST-1−/− mice, respectively. Although serum Ig levels as well as TD and TI-1 Ag-specific systemic immune responses were normal, the TI-2 Ag-induced IgG3 response was selectively impaired. Oral immunization of BST-1−/− mice with cholera toxin, a potent TD Ag for the induction of IgA response, resulted in the poor production of Ag-specific Abs at the intestinal mucosa accompanied by the reduced number of Ag-specific IgA-producing cells in the lamina propria. These results indicate that BST-1 has roles in B cell development and Ab production in vivo.

Abstract
Abstract
In this report, we detail changes in the expression of CD38 on murine B cells during the course of a T cell-dependent immune response. CD38 is expressed on all naive B cells but is down-regulated on isotype-switched B cells from both the germinal centers (GCs) and the foci of Ab-forming cells which arise during the first weeks of the response. The down-regulation on GC B cells, however, is reversible since Ag-specific IgG1 B cells with high levels of CD38 are apparent by 2 wk postimmunization. These cells have characteristics that resemble recirculating memory B cells, in that they are small and bind low levels of peanut agglutinin. Such characteristics indicate that the restoration of CD38 levels is coincidental with the transition from GC to memory B cell. Using this observation, we plotted the development of the memory population and the demise of the GC reaction as a function of time after immunization. Our results indicate that the GC reaction ceases gradually over many weeks rather than suddenly, which corresponds with the formation of the memory B cell population. Furthermore, by segregating memory B cells and GC B cells, it was possible to assess the in vitro survival characteristics of each compared with naive B cells. These experiments demonstrated that memory B cell survival in vitro was comparable with naive B cell survival but less than the survival seen for bcl-2-transgenic B cells, whereas GC B cell survival, as expected, was very poor. Hence, by resolving murine Ag-specific memory B cells and GC B cells, we have been able to quantify the development of the memory B cell population.
