Abstract
The anti-FcRH5/CD3 T cell-dependent bispecific antibody (TDB) targets the B cell lineage marker FcRH5 expressed in multiple myeloma (MM) tumor cells. We demonstrate that TDBs trigger T cell receptor activation by inducing target clustering and exclusion of CD45 phosphatase from the synapse. The dimensions of the target molecule play a key role in the efficiency of the synapse formation. The anti-FcRH5/CD3 TDB kills human plasma cells and patient-derived myeloma cells at picomolar concentrations and results in complete depletion of B cells and bone marrow plasma cells in cynomolgus monkeys. These data demonstrate the potential for the anti-FcRH5/CD3 TDB, alone or in combination with inhibition of PD-1/PD-L1 signaling, in the treatment of MM and other B cell malignancies.

Abstract
Natural killer T (NKT) cells represent an important regulatory T cell subset that develops in the thymus and contains immature (NK1.1lo) and mature (NK1.1hi) cell subsets. Here we show in mice that an inherited mutation in heterogeneous ribonucleoprotein L-like protein (hnRNPLLthunder), that shortens the survival of conventional T cells, has no discernible effect on NKT cell development, homeostasis or effector function. Thus, Hnrpll deficiency effectively increases the NKT∶T cell ratio in the periphery. However, Hnrpll mutation disrupts CD45RA, RB and RC exon silencing of the Ptprc mRNA in both NKT and conventional T cells, and leads to a comparably dramatic shift to high molecular weight CD45 isoforms. In addition, Hnrpll mutation has a cell intrinsic effect on the expression of the developmentally regulated cell surface marker NK1.1 on NKT cells in the thymus and periphery but does not affect cell numbers. Therefore our results highlight both overlapping and divergent roles for hnRNPLL between conventional T cells and NKT cells. In both cell subsets it is required as a trans-acting factor to regulate alternative splicing of the Ptprc mRNA, but it is only required for survival of conventional T cells.

Abstract
Osteoblasts play a crucial role in the hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) niche; however, an overall increase in their number does not necessarily promote hematopoiesis. Because the activity of osteoblasts and osteoclasts is coordinately regulated, we hypothesized that active bone-resorbing osteoclasts would participate in HSC niche maintenance. Mice treated with bisphosphonates exhibited a decrease in proportion and absolute number of Lin(-)cKit(+)Sca1(+) Flk2(-) (LKS Flk2(-)) and long-term culture-initiating cells in bone marrow (BM). In competitive transplantation assays, the engraftment of treated BM cells was inferior to that of controls, confirming a decrease in HSC numbers. Accordingly, bisphosphonates abolished the HSC increment produced by parathyroid hormone. In contrast, the number of colony-forming-unit cells in BM was increased. Because a larger fraction of LKS in the BM of treated mice was found in the S/M phase of the cell cycle, osteoclast impairment makes a proportion of HSCs enter the cell cycle and differentiate. To prove that HSC impairment was a consequence of niche manipulation, a group of mice was treated with bisphosphonates and then subjected to BM transplantation from untreated donors. Treated recipient mice experienced a delayed hematopoietic recovery compared with untreated controls. Our findings demonstrate that osteoclast function is fundamental in the HSC niche.

Abstract
Multiple myeloma (MM) is a proliferative disorder of monoclonal plasma cells which accumulate in human bone marrow, and myeloma cells proliferate in response to a cytokine, interleukin-6 (IL-6). We recently found that MPC-1- CD49e- immature myeloma cells expressing CD45 form a proliferating population in MM. IL-6 activates at least two intracellular pathways including signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) and extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2) following the activation of Janus kinases (JAKs) via its receptor complexes composed of the IL-6 receptor alpha chain and gp130. Although the roles of CD45 have been extensively studied for antigen receptors in B and T cells, its physiological consequences in other hematopoietic cells remain largely unknown. Myeloma cells expressing CD45 antigens which contain the activation of src family protein-tyrosine kinases (PTKs) independent of IL-6 stimulation proliferate in response to IL-6, whereas the proliferation of CD45- cells which lack a considerable activity of the src family PTKs is not promoted by IL-6. The STAT3 and ERK1/2 pathways are similarly activated by IL-6 in both cells either expressing or not expressing CD45. In this review, we argue a novel mechanism of proliferation of myeloma cells, in that the activation of both STAT3 and ERK1/2 is not sufficient for IL-6-induced proliferation which further requires IL-6-independent activation of the src family kinases associated with CD45 phosphatase. We propose that the cellular context, such as CD45 expression and src family kinase activation, is crucial for myeloma cells to proliferate in response to IL-6.

Abstract
Cells localized in the bronchioalveolar duct junction of the murine lung have been identified as potential bronchioalveolar stem cells. Based on the surface marker expression, two main phenotypes have been proposed: Sca-1(+), CD34(+), CD45(-), Pecam(-) and Sca-1(low), CD34(-) CD45(-), Pecam(-) cells. An increase in the number of Sca-1(+), CD34(+) CD45(-), Pecam(-) cells and activation of the sonic hedgehog (Shh) pathway was observed following unilateral pneumonectomy and naphthalene-induced airway injury. Overexpression of Shh in the respiratory tract also resulted in an increase of this cell population. Syngeneic transplantation of beta-galactosidase-expressing bone marrow cells demonstrated that the increase of Sca-1(+), CD34(+), CD45(-), Pecam(-) cells in the lung was a result of local proliferation. Intratracheal administration of purified Shh-stimulated Sca-1(+), CD45(-), Pecam(-) cells coexpressing CD34 to syngeneic mice following pneumonectomy resulted in engraftment of these cells predominantly in the airways for up to 3 months, whereas Sca-1(-), CD45(-), Pecam(-) cells did not engraft. This study suggests that local Sca-1(+), CD34(+), CD45(-), Pecam(-) cells are stimulated during compensatory lung growth, following airway injury and overexpression of Shh and have some potential to engraft in the airways, without showing clonal properties in vivo.

Abstract
Currently, there is a major need in hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) transplantation to develop reduced-intensity regimens that do not cause DNA damage and associated toxicities and that allow a wider range of patients to receive therapy. Cytokine receptor signals through c-Kit and c-Mpl can modulate HSC quiescence and engraftment, but the intracellular signals and transcription factors that mediate these effects during transplantation have not been defined. Here we show that loss of one allele of signal transducer and activator of transcription 5 (STAT5) in nonablated adult mutant mice permitted engraftment with wild-type HSC. Conditional deletion of STAT5 using Mx1-Cre caused maximal reduction in STAT5 mRNA (> 97%) and rapidly decreased quiescence-associated c-Mpl downstream targets (Tie-2, p57), increased HSC cycling, and gradually reduced survival and depleted the long-term HSC pool. Host deletion of STAT5 was persistent and permitted efficient donor long-term HSC engraftment in primary and secondary hosts in the absence of ablative conditioning. Overall, these studies establish proof of principle for targeting of STAT5 as novel transplantation conditioning and demonstrate, for the first time, that STAT5, a mitogenic factor in most cell types, including hematopoietic progenitors, is a key transcriptional regulator that maintains quiescence of HSC during steady-state hematopoiesis.

Abstract
IFN-gamma is a key cytokine controlling Brucella infection. One of its major function is the stimulation of Brucella-killing effector mechanisms, such as inducible NO synthase (iNOS)/NOS2 activity, in phagocytic cells. In this study, an attempt to identify the main cellular components of the immune response induced by Brucella melitensis in vivo is made. IFN-gamma and iNOS protein were analyzed intracellularly using flow cytometry in chronically infected mice. Although TCRbeta(+)CD4(+) cells were the predominant source of IFN-gamma in the spleen, we also identified CD11b(+)LY-6C(+)LY-6G(-)MHC-II(+) cells as the main iNOS-producing cells in the spleen and the peritoneal cavity. These cells appear similar to inflammatory dendritic cells recently described in the mouse model of Listeria monocytogenes infection and human psoriasis: the TNF/iNOS-producing dendritic cells. Using genetically deficient mice, we demonstrated that the induction of iNOS and IFN-gamma-producing cells due to Brucella infection required TLR4 and TLR9 stimulation coupled to Myd88-dependent signaling pathways. The unique role of MyD88 was confirmed by the lack of impact of Toll-IL-1R domain-containing adaptor inducing IFN-beta deficiency. The reduction of IFN-gamma(+) and iNOS(+) cell frequency observed in MyD88-, TLR4-, and TLR9-deficient mice correlated with a proportional lack of Brucella growth control. Taken together, our results provide new insight into how immune responses fight Brucella infection.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cultured bone marrow adherent cells (BMACs) have been commonly used as stem cells in bone and cartilage regeneration therapy. However, BMACs are actually a heterogeneous cell population, and clinicians might have previously transplanted more fibroblasts or other cells than actual stem cells. The purposes of this study were to (1) isolate immature mesenchymal stem cells with CD34/44/45 and Sca-1 surface-antigen patterns from BMACs using flow-activated cell sorting and (2) investigate their differentiation potential. METHODS Bone marrow cells were extracted from the mouse femur and cultured. Adherent cells could be identified approximately 3 days after seeding, and nonadherent cells were removed with the medium when it was changed. BMAC samples were cultured for 3, 7, 10, 14, 21, 28, 35, and 42 days after the first seeding. We directly isolated CD34/44/45(-)Sca-1(+) mesenchymal progenitor cells (MPC1) and CD34/45(-)/44(+) Sca-1(+) mesenchymal progenitor cells (MPC2) from BMACs based on their cell surface marker patterns using a fluorescence-activated cell sorter. These subgroups - MPC1, MPC2, and the residual cells in BMACs (non-MPC population: RCs) - were then induced to differentiate into bone, cartilage, and fat using a plate culture. The cultures were examined after histochemical staining on day 14. RESULTS In a plate culture, the MPC1 population had higher potential to differentiate into osteoblasts, chondrocytes, and lipocytes; whereas MPC2 and RCs differentiated into only two lineages: osteoblasts and lipocytes. The incidence of these multipotential cells was less than 5% among the cultured BMACs. MPC1 proliferated up to 17-fold within 3-4 weeks after separation from floating cells and did not increase thereafter. CONCLUSIONS BMACs are conventionally thought to differentiate into cartilage only in pellet culture, but we showed that MPC1 produced cartilage-like extracellular matrix in plate culture. MPC1, which are more immature cells than MPC2 and RCs, were multipotential progenitors that showed unique cartilage-differentiation potential. MPC1 had less ability to proliferate in BMAC culture, but they might have higher potential for chondrogenic differentiation.

Abstract
We studied an in vivo mouse model to evaluate the relationships between CD26--a glycoprotein with dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP-IV) activity implicated in the regulation of immune functions--and T cells expressing the effector/memory phenotype CD45RB. We report that CD26 does not define a differentiation stage of CD4 T cells because the density and frequency of CD26 on CD4 T cells from the spleen, inguinal and mesenteric lymph node was similar within the CD45RB+ (naïve) and CD45RB- (antigen primed) subsets. This observation was confirmed using CD4 T cells from a T-cell receptor transgenic (tg) model. CD4 tg T cells specific for ovalbumin (OVA) were adoptively transferred and challenged in vivo with antigen. CD26 expression was the same on naive and antigen-stimulated CD4 T cells. Depleting CD4 T cells with an anti-CD4 antibody preferentially depleted the CD45RB+ subset. In CD4 depleted animals CD26 expression was not altered on the CD45RB- subset but the density of CD26 was marginally increased on the remaining CD45RB+ CD4 T cells. The results suggest that, unlike the human, CD26 in the mouse was not directly linked with T cell activation.

Abstract
Effector memory T-cells (CD45RO+) may provide pro-inflammatory signals that contribute to the persistent airway inflammation that is characteristic of asthma, and reduced apoptosis of these cells may prolong their effects. The present authors compared apoptosis of CD45RO+ T-cells in the inner airway wall in nonfatal asthma (n = 7), fatal asthma (n = 7) and control (n = 8) cases. Apoptotic cells were identified using both the terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dNTP nick end-labelling (TUNEL) technique and cell morphology. The percentage of CD45RO+ T-cells that were apoptotic was significantly greater in control cases compared with nonfatal and fatal cases of asthma, respectively, in small (42+/-19, 16+/-9, 7+/-6%), medium (40+/-12, 15+/-11, 12+/-8%) and large airways (42+/-15, 23+/-18, 18+/-12%). The reduction in the percentage of apoptotic CD45RO+ cells in the cases of asthma was observed in both blood vessels and the interstitium in large airways. In conclusion, these data suggest that reduced apoptosis may prolong the active life of effector memory T-cells in the airways. It is possible that survival signals may be received before cells migrate into the interstitium of the inner airway wall.

Abstract
Homeostatic control of T cells involves tight regulation of effector T cells to prevent excessive activation that can cause tissue damage and autoimmunity. Little is known, however, about whether antigen-presenting cells (APCs) are also involved in maintaining immune system homeostasis once effector T cells are stimulated. Here we found that immature APCs downregulated effector T cell function by a mechanism involving the C-type lectin MGL expressed by APCs. Glycosylation-dependent interactions of MGL with CD45 on effector T cells negatively regulated T cell receptor-mediated signaling and T cell-dependent cytokine responses, which in turn decreased T cell proliferation and increased T cell death. Thus, regulation of effector T cells by MGL expressed on APCs may provide a target for regulating chronic inflammatory and autoimmune diseases.

Abstract
Expansion of hematopoietic stem cells could be used clinically to shorten the prolonged aplastic phase after umbilical cord blood (UCB) transplantation. In this report, we investigated rapid severe combined immunodeficient (SCID) repopulating activity (rSRA) 2 weeks after transplantation of CD34(+) UCB cells cultured with serum on MS5 stromal cells and in serum- and stroma-free cultures. Various subpopulations obtained after culture were studied for rSRA. CD34(+) expansion cultures resulted in vast expansion of CD45(+) and CD34(+) cells. Independent of the culture method, only the CD34(+)33(+)38(-) fraction of the cultured cells contained rSRA. Subsequently, we subfractionated the CD34(+)38(-) fraction using stem cell markers CD45RA and CD90. In vitro differentiation cultures showed CD34(+) expansion in both CD45RA(-) and CD90(+) cultures, whereas little increase in CD34(+) cells was observed in both CD45RA(+) and CD90(-) cultures. By four-color flow cytometry, we could demonstrate that CD34(+)38(-)45RA(-) and CD34(+)38(-)90(+) cell populations were largely overlapping. Both populations were able to reconstitute SCID/nonobese diabetic mice at 2 weeks, indicating that these cells contained rSRA activity. In contrast, CD34(+)38(-)45RA(+) or CD34(+)38(-)90(-) cells contributed only marginally to rSRA. Similar results were obtained when cells were injected intrafemorally, suggesting that the lack of reconstitution was not due to homing defects. In conclusion, we show that after in vitro expansion, rSRA is mediated by CD34(+)38(-)90(+)45RA(-) cells. All other cell fractions have limited reconstitutive potential, mainly because the cells have lost stem cell activity rather than because of homing defects. These findings can be used clinically to assess the rSRA of cultured stem cells.

Abstract
Activating, DAP12-coupled members of the Ly-49 family of NK cell receptors help control viral infections in mice. However, the kinases and/or phosphatases mediating tyrosine phosphorylation of Ly-49D-associated DAP12 have not been elucidated. In this study, we show for the first time that Src family tyrosine kinases are physically and functionally associated with Ly-49D/DAP12 signaling in murine NK cells. Specifically, we demonstrate the following: 1) inhibition of Src family kinases suppresses DAP12 phosphorylation and downstream DAP12 signals; 2) both Fyn and Lck are capable of phosphorylating DAP12; and 3) both kinases coimmunoprecipitate with the Ly-49D/DAP12 complex in NK cells. Although we detect enhanced phosphorylation of Fyn upon Ly-49D cross-linking in NK cells, Ly-49D-mediated events in both Fyn-/- and Fyn/Lck-/- mice appear normal, reinforcing the theme of redundancy in the ability of Src family kinases to initiate activation events. In contrast to disruption of specific Src family enzymes, Ly-49D/DAP12-mediated calcium mobilization and cytokine production by CD45 null NK cells are defective. Although others have ascribed the effects of CD45 mutation solely on the suppression of Src family activity, we demonstrate in this study that DAP12 is hyperphosphorylated in CD45 null NK cells, resulting in uncoordinated tyrosine-mediated signaling upon Ly-49D ligation. Therefore, although our data are consistent with a Src kinase activity proximally within DAP12 signaling, DAP12 also appears to be a substrate of CD45, suggesting a more complex role for this phosphatase than has been reported previously.

Abstract
CD45 has been recognized as an important player in regulating signalling in lymphocytes. However, compared with tyrosine kinases, phosphatases are still poorly understood in terms of the details of their specificity and regulation. Here, the recent progress in understanding the biology of the first recognized receptor tyrosine phosphatase, CD45, is reviewed.

Abstract
The molecular mechanism of the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) gp120-induced apoptosis of bystander T cells is not well defined. Here, we demonstrate that CD45, a key component of the T cell receptor pathway, plays a crucial role in apoptosis induced by HIV-1 gp120. We observed that HIV-1 gp120-induced apoptosis was significantly reduced in a CD45-deficient cell line and that reconstitution of CD45 in these cells restored gp120-induced apoptosis. However, expression of a chimeric protein containing only the intracellular phosphatase domain was not able to restore the apoptotic function in the CD45-negative clone, indicating an important role for the extracellular domain of CD45 in this function. The role of CD45 in gp120-induced apoptosis was further confirmed in T cell lines and peripheral blood mononuclear cells using a selective CD45 inhibitor as well as CD45-specific small interfering RNA. We also observed that gp120 treatment induced CD45 association with the HIV coreceptor CXCR4. Further elucidation of downstream signaling events revealed that CD45 modulates HIV-1 gp120-induced apoptosis by regulating Fas ligand induction and activation of the phosphoinositide 3-kinase/Akt pathway. These results suggest a novel CD45-mediated mechanism for the HIV envelope-induced apoptosis of T cells.

Abstract
CD45, the leucocyte common antigen, is a haemopoietic cell-specific tyrosine phosphatase. Many isoforms are generated by alternative splicing, but their function remains obscure. The extracellular domain of CD45 is highly polymorphic in all vertebrates. Importantly, human polymorphic variants that alter CD45 isoform expression are associated with autoimmune and infectious diseases, establishing CD45 as an important immunomodulator with a significant influence on disease burden. Here, we discuss the new opportunities provided by the human variants for investigating and understanding how CD45 regulates antigen receptor signalling, cytokine responses and apoptosis.

Abstract
Stromal-cell-derived factor-1alpha (SDF-1alpha/CXCL12) is a potent chemoattractant for T cells. We report that Cbl family members, Cbl and Cbl-b, are tyrosine-phosphorylated after SDF-1alpha/CXCL12 stimulation of Jurkat T cells. Enhanced phosphorylation of Cbl and Cbl-b was regulated by src family kinases, and perhaps Fyn. Activated Cbl and Cbl-b interacted with Crk-L, Zap-70, Nck, PLC-gamma and Fyb after SDF-1alpha/CXCL12 stimulation, implicating association of these proteins in SDF-1alpha/CXCL12 actions. SDF-1alpha/CXCL12 did not induce tyrosine phosphorylation of Cbl or Cbl-b in Lck-deficient T cell line J.CaM1.6 or CD45-deficient T cell line J45.01. Thus, Lck Src kinase and tyrosine phosphatase CD45 are likely involved in regulating activation of Cbl family members. A functional role for Cbl and Cbl-b in migration was demonstrated by the decrease in SDF-1/CXCL12-induced migration in a T cell line in which transfected small interfering RNA for Cbl and Cbl-b decreased expression of Cbl and Cbl-b, but not MAPK activity. SDF-1alpha/CXCL12-induced chemotaxis was greatly reduced in the CD45-deficient T cell line. Our results implicate CD45, Cbl, Cbl-b, src kinases and potentially other associated proteins as mediators of SDF-1alpha/CXCL12-induced cell migration of Jurkat T cells.

Abstract
We describe a regulatory lymphoid dendritic cell (LDC) population propagated from mouse liver nonparenchymal cells (NPC) in IL-3 and anti-CD40 monoclonal antibody that are phenotypically mature, and induce T-cell hyporesponsiveness by promoting T-cell apoptotic death, which is partially caspase-dependent, but is unlikely to be mediated by soluble factor(s). In vivo administration of liver LDC significantly prolonged the survival of vascularized cardiac allografts in an alloantigen-specific manner. This is associated with enhanced T-cell death in secondary lymphoid organs.

Abstract
Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) can be isolated from murine bone marrow by their ability to efflux the Hoechst 33342 dye. This method defines an extremely small and hematopoietically potent subset of cells known as the side population (SP). Recent studies suggest that transplanted single SP cells are capable of lymphohematopoietic repopulation at near absolute efficiencies. Here, we carefully reevaluate the hematopoietic potential of individual SP cells and find substantially lower rates of reconstitution. Our strategy involved the cotransplantation of single SP cells along with different populations of competitor cells that varied in their self-renewal capacity. Even with minimized HSC competition, SP cells were only able to reconstitute up to 35% of recipient mice. Furthermore, through immunophenotyping and clonal in vitro assays we find that SP cells are virtually homogeneous. Isolation of HSCs on the basis of Hoechst exclusion and a single cell-surface marker allows enrichment levels similar to that obtained with complex multicolor strategies. Altogether, our results indicate that even an extremely homogeneous HSC population, based on phenotype and dye efflux, cannot reconstitute mice at absolute efficiencies.

Abstract
The common leucocyte antigen, CD45, is widely expressed on the surface of lymphocytes. In T and B cells, CD45 has an important role in the early events of receptor signalling. However, the role of various CD45 isoforms in B-cell receptor (BCR)- and cytokine-induced signalling and proliferation is still unclear. In the present study, we establish two follicular lymphoma cell lines expressing either CD45RA (HF28RA) or CD45R0 (HF28R0) isoforms. It was observed that the two isoforms had distinct effects on BCR- or cytokine-induced cellular proliferation. BCR stimulation significantly increased the proliferation of HF28R0 cells, in contrast to a decreased proliferation of HF28RA cells. Moreover, proliferation of HF28R0 cells significantly increased after the addition of interleukin-2 (IL-2), IL-4, IL-6, IL-10, IL-12, IL-13, IL-15, interferon-gamma and tumour necrosis factor-alpha cytokines, whereas most of these cytokines significantly inhibited the proliferation of HF28RA cells. In addition, the cell lines had their individual cytokine mRNA expression profiles after BCR stimulation. We also analysed the effect of CD45 isoforms on intracellular signalling after BCR stimulation. It was found out that the kinetics of ERK1/2 MAP kinase phosphorylation was clearly faster in HF28R0 than in HF28RA cells. The phosphorylation of other analysed MAP kinases or PTKs was very similar in the cell lines.

Abstract
Phosphatidylserine (PS) exposure is normally associated with apoptosis and the removal of dying cells. We observed that PS is exposed constitutively at high levels on T lymphocytes that express low levels of the transmembrane tyrosine phosphatase CD45RB. CD45 was shown to be a negative regulator of PS translocation in response to various signals, including activation of the ATP receptor P2X(7). Changes in PS distribution were shown to modulate several membrane activities: Ca(2+) and Na(+) uptake through the P2X(7) cation channel itself; P2X(7)-stimulated shedding of the homing receptor CD62L; and reversal of activity of the multidrug transporter P-glycoprotein. The data identify a role for PS distribution changes in signal transduction, rapidly modulating the activities of several membrane proteins. This seems to be an all-or-none effect, coordinating the activity of most or all the molecules of a target protein in each cell. The data also suggest a new approach to circumventing multidrug resistance.

Abstract
Myelin is a multi-layered membranous lipid insulator surrounding axons that allows the rapid conduction of neuronal impulses. In the central nervous system (CNS), myelin is produced by oligodendrocytes. During development, morphologically immature oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs) arise from neural stem cells before differentiating into myelinating oligodendrocytes shortly after birth. Fyn tyrosine kinase (Fyn) has been shown to play a central role during OPC differentiation, including inducing morphological changes in the cells and initiating the expression of myelin basic protein (MBP), a major structural protein required for the compaction of myelin sheaths. Recently, we have shown that signaling via the gamma chain of immunoglobulin Fc receptors (FcRgamma) induces the Fyn-MBP cascade and promotes the morphological differentiation of OPCs. The protein tyrosine phosphatases that are responsible for the positive regulation of Fyn tyrosine kinase activity during this cascade, however, remained unknown. Here we report that a protein tyrosine phosphatase, CD45, is involved in this process. Fyn co-immunoprecipitated with CD45 from differentiating wild-type OPCs in vitro, while CD45-deficient OPCs failed to differentiate. Additionally, dysmyelination was observed in CD45-deficient mice in vivo. Our findings suggest that CD45 is a key phosphatase involved in OPC differentiation and provide a preliminary explanation for the previously reported CD45 mutations observed in some multiple sclerosis (MS) patients.

Abstract
Mitochondrial-perturbating agents such as toxic coumponds induce apoptosis. We note that the loss of CD45 expression in the lymphoblastic leukemia cell line HPB-ALL (HPB45.0) leads to an inhibition of nuclear apoptosis. Our hypothesis is that the absence of CD45 disturbs protein function regulated by a proto-oncogene of the Src family playing a significant role in nuclear apoptosis. In this work we explore the importance of a chloride efflux on DNA fragmentation. The role of tyrosine kinase in the function and regulation of the chloride channels was determined. Our results showed a disturbance of ionic homeostasis in CD45 deficient lymphocytes (CD45-) in contrast to normal lymphocytes (CD45+). The phosphorylation levels of the chloride channels are considerably inhibited in CD45-, while the expression levels of these channels are similar in the two types of cells. A hypertonic medium inhibits DNA fragmentation in CD45+ while a hypotonic medium increases DNA fragmentation in CD45-. Thus CD45 plays a significant role in nuclear apoptosis by the regulation of the chloride channels responsible for ionic homeostasis of the cell essential for the DFF40 activation.

Abstract
Reversible tyrosine phosphorylation of proteins is a key regulatory mechanism for numerous important aspects of eukaryotic physiology and is catalysed by kinases and phosphatases. Together, cells of the immune system express at least half of the 107 protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP) genes in the human genome, most of which encode multidomain proteins that contain protein- and phospholipid-interaction domains. Here, we discuss the diverse but specific, and important, roles that PTPs have in immune cells, focusing mainly on T and B cells, and we highlight recent evidence that even subtle alterations in PTPs can cause immune dysfunction and human disease.

Abstract
CD45 is dynamically repositioned within lipid rafts and the immune synapse during T cell activation, although the molecular consequences of CD45 repositioning remain unclear. In this study we examine the role of CD45 membrane compartmentalization in regulating murine T cell activation. We find that raft-localized CD45 antagonizes IL-2 production by opposing processive TCR signals, whereas raft-excluded CD45 promotes ERK-dependent polarized synaptic lipid raft clustering and IL-2 production. We propose that these dual CD45 activities ensure that only robust TCR signals proceed, whereas signals meeting threshold requirements are potentiated. Our findings highlight membrane compartmentalization as a key regulator of CD45 function and elucidate a novel signal transduction pathway by which raft-excluded CD45 positively regulates T cell activation.

Abstract
Lateral compartmentalization of the plasma membrane into domains is a key feature of immune cell activation and subsequent immune effector functions. Here, we will review the high diversity of membrane domains, ranging from elementary lipid rafts, envisioned as dynamic and small domains (in the tens of nm), to relatively stable microm-scale membrane domains, which form the immunologic synapse of T lymphocytes. We will discuss the relationship between these different types of plasma membrane domains and how raft lipid- and protein-controlled interactions and cell biological processes cooperate to generate functional domains that mediate lymphocyte activity.

Abstract
The CD45 phosphotyrosine phosphatase is expressed on T cells as multiple isoforms due to alternative splicing. The panoply of isoforms expressed is tightly regulated during T cell development and on mature peripheral T cell subsets following activation. We describe the analysis of comparative CD45 isoform expression levels on thymic and T cell subsets from the C57BL/6 mouse. Only four isoforms were expressed at significant protein levels: CD45R0, CD45RB, CD45RBC and CD45RABC, although trace amounts of others may be present. The expression of CD45RBC was about nine-fold higher on CD8(+) than on CD4(+) peripheral T cells, whereas CD45R0 expression was higher on CD4(+) T cells. We provide a general overview of the current models that have been proposed to explain the molecular actions of the different CD45 isoforms. Achieving a thorough understanding of the biological reasons for the existence and tight regulation of CD45 isoform expression in immune cells remains one of the outstanding challenges in the CD45 research field.

Abstract
The protein tyrosine phosphatase CD45 has been shown to be an important regulator of antigen-receptor signaling in both T and B lymphocytes. Lymphocyte populations within the gut mucosa are phenotypically and ontogenetically different from those generally found in secondary lymphoid tissue. In T lymphopenic mice, extrathymic T cell development takes place within the gut. Here we report the characterization of T and B cell populations in the distinct compartments of the gut mucosa and gut-associated lymphoid tissue of CD45-null mice. These data suggest that CD45 is required for the development of the specialized T cell populations within the gut environment as has been previously shown for thymic development. We demonstrate that within the large intestine intraepithelial compartment alphabeta-TCR+ CD4+ T cells are selectively retained by CD45KO mice. T cells and NK cells within the intraepithelium and the gut mucosa associated lymphoid tissue of CD45KO mice frequently possess an activated phenotype, differentiated to produce typical TH1 and TH2 cytokines. These data demonstrate that local environmental differences within the gut can, at least in part, overcome the requirement for CD45 during activation of T cells.

Abstract
Transgenic mice have been constructed expressing high (CD45RABC) and low (CD45R0) molecular weight CD45 isoforms on a CD45-/- background. Phenotypic analysis and in vivo challenge of these mice with influenza and lymphocytic choriomeningitis viruses shows that T cell differentiation and peripheral T cell function are related to the level of CD45 expression but not to which CD45 isoform is expressed. In contrast, B cell differentiation is not restored, irrespective of the level of expression of a single isoform. All CD45 trangenic mice have T cells with an activated phenotype and increased T cell turnover. These effects are more prominent in CD8 than CD4 cells. The transgenic mice share several properties with humans expressing variant CD45 alleles and provide a model to understand immune function in variant individuals.

Abstract
The molecular mechanisms of signal transduction have been the focus of intense research during the last decade. In T cells, much of the work has centered on protein tyrosine kinase-mediated signaling from the TCR and cytokine receptors, while the study of protein tyrosine phosphatases has lagged behind. Nevertheless, it has now become clear that many protein tyrosine phosphatases play equally important roles in T cell physiology and that no kinase-regulated system would work without the counterbalancing participation of phosphatases. In fact, we have learned that many processes are regulated primarily on the phosphatase side. This minireview summarizes the current state-of-the art in our understanding of the regulation and biology of protein tyrosine phosphatases in T lymphocyte physiology.

Abstract
Antibodies specific for self-antigens mediate life-threatening pathology in several autoimmune diseases. Clearly the ability to target the plasma cells (PCs) producing the autoantibodies would be of great clinical benefit. Current immunosuppressive therapies are based on the premise that autoreactive PCs are short-lived and replenished from ongoing immune responses. However, recent results question this assumption and suggest that optimizing the treatment of severe autoimmune conditions will require a significant investment in elucidating the details of PC biology.

Abstract
CD45(+):Sca1(+) adult stem cells isolated from uninjured muscle do not display any myogenic potential, whereas those isolated from regenerating muscle give rise to myoblasts expressing the paired-box transcription factor Pax7 and the bHLH factors Myf5 and MyoD. By contrast, CD45(+):Sca1(+) isolated from injured Pax7( -/-) muscle were incapable of forming myoblasts. Infection of CD45(+):Sca1(+) cells from uninjured muscle with retrovirus expressing Pax7 efficiently activated the myogenic program. The resulting myoblasts expressed Myf5 and MyoD and differentiated into myotubes that expressed myogenin and myosin heavy chain. Infection of CD45(-):Sca1(-) cells from Pax7( -/-) muscle similarly gave rise to myoblasts. Notably, infection of Pax7-deficient muscle with adenoviral Pax7 resulted in the de novo formation of regenerated myofibers. Taken together, these results indicate that Pax7 is necessary and sufficient to induce the myogenic specification of CD45(+) stem cells resident in adult skeletal muscle. Moreover, these experiments suggest that viral transduction of Pax7 is a potential therapeutic approach for the treatment of neuromuscular degenerative diseases.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to examine whether CD45 mediates interleukin 6 (IL-6) signaling in human multiple myeloma (MM) cells. We chose U266 MM cells as a study model and isolated cells into CD45+ and CD45- subpopulations. CD45+ and CD45- U266 cells were cocultured with bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs). IL-6-induced proliferation in CD45+ U266 cells was inhibited by vanadate, a potent protein tyrosine phosphatase inhibitor. However, IL-6-independent CD45- U266 cell growth was not affected by vanadate. CD45+ U266 cells, but not CD45- U266 cells, have the capability of cell adhesion concomitant with actin filament polymerization at the adherent cells. Adhesion of CD45+ U266 cells to BMSCs was impaired by vanadate. We clarified the signaling differences between CD45+ and CD45- U266 cells in response to IL-6. In CD45+ U266 cells, IL-6 increased tyrosine phosphorylation of gp130 and STAT3 and stimulated the level of Mcl-1 protein expression. An association between CD45 and the Src-family protein tyrosine kinase, Lyn, was maintained in the presence of IL-6; the formation of the CD45/Lyn complex was impaired by vanadate. Additionally, IL-6-induced Lyn kinase activity in CD45+ U266 cells was increased by the cross-linking of CD45, and this increase was due to the dephosphorylation of Tyr507 at Lyn. In conclusion, IL-6-dependent MM cells require CD45 to initiate IL-6 signaling and to maintain Lyn kinase activity, both of which are essential for cell proliferation and cell adhesion.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES CD45 is a critical regulator of signaling threshold in immune cells. There are clinical and animal studies suggesting that the CD45-negative phenotype is the phenotype of progressive multiple myeloma (MM). The aims of this study were to confirm this hypothesis and to test the prognostic value of CD45 expression in newly diagnosed MM patients. DESIGN AND METHODS In a retrospective study of 95 newly diagnosed MM patients treated with high dose therapy we used 4-color flow cytometry to determine CD45 expression and correlated the immunophenotipic data with clinical data. RESULTS Thirty of 95 patients (31.5%) lacked CD45 expression at diagnosis. The CD45 phenotype significantly affected the overall survival (OS) of the patients, like the most common presenting prognostic parameters analyzed including b-2-microglobulin, age and 14q32 translocations. CD45 negative MM patients had a significantly worse OS than did CD45 positive cases of MM: 28.7% cumulative survival at 4 years, median 42 months vs not reached; p = 0.004. Furthermore, CD45 remained the only parameter adversely affecting OS in multivariate analysis. INTERPRETATION AND CONCLUSIONS The CD45 negative phenotype could reflect the phenotype of progressive disease in relation to the intrinsic malignancy of the MM clone. Indeed, CD45 negative myeloma cells appear to have a greater capacity to circulate, disseminate and clone as well as being less sensitive to apoptosis.

Abstract
Muscle recently has been identified as a good source of adult stem cells that can differentiate into cells of different lineages. The most well-known muscle progenitor cells are satellite cells, which not only contribute to the replenishment of the myogenic cell pool but also can become osteoblasts, adipocytes and chondrocytes. Other populations of stem cells that appear to be distinct from satellite cells also have been discovered recently. Muscle-derived stem cells (MDSCs) can be divided into two major categories based on these cells' varied abilities to differentiate into myogenic lineages. Interestingly, MDSCs that can differentiate readily into myogenic cells are usually CD45-. In contrast, MDSCs with less myogenic potential are CD45+. Various lines of evidence suggest that different populations of MDSCs are closely related. Furthermore, MDSCs appear to be closely related to endothelial cells or pericytes of the capillaries surrounding myofibers. When used in tissue engineering applications, MDSCs--particularly those genetically engineered to express growth factors--have been demonstrated to possess great potential for the regeneration and repair of muscle, bone and cartilage. Further research is necessary to delineate the relationship between different populations of MDSCs and between MDSCs and other adult stem cells, to investigate their developmental origin, and to determine the regulatory pathways and factors that control stem cell self-renewal, proliferation and differentiation. This knowledge could greatly enhance the usefulness of muscle-derived stem cells, as well as other adult stem cells, for tissue repair and regeneration applications.

Abstract
Polycythemia vera (PV) is a myeloproliferative disorder arising in a multipotent hematopoietic stem cell. The pathogenesis of PV remains poorly understood; however, the biologic hallmark of this disease is the presence of erythropoietin (Epo)-independent colony formation (endogenous erythroid colony [EEC]) and cytokine hypersensitivity. We have developed a simple liquid culture from CD34+ cells to study PV erythroid differentiation. PV erythroid differentiation was characterized in this culture system by two types of abnormalities: 1) an increased proliferation of progenitors in response to cytokines, associated with strict cytokine dependency for preventing apoptosis; and 2) Epo-independent terminal erythroid differentiation in the presence of stem cell factor and interleukin-3 as evidenced by the acquisition of glycophorin A. The level of Epo-independent terminal differentiation correlates in PV patients with the number of EEC. Epo-independent terminal differentiation as well as normal Epo-induced differentiation were repressed by inhibitors of JAK2 (AG490), PI3K (LY294002), and the Src family kinases (PP2). In contrast, an inhibitor of the ERK/MAP kinase pathway (PD98059) had no effect on Epo-independent terminal differentiation. These signaling abnormalities were not mediated by a decreased expression or activity of the membrane tyrosine phosphatase CD45, which dephosphorylates JAK2 and Src family kinases. This study demonstrates that early steps of PV erythroid differentiation are strictly cytokine dependent. In contrast, late erythroid differentiation is an Epo-independent phenomenon that is mediated by signaling pathways identical to those in Epo-induced differentiation.

Abstract
Embryo liver morphogenesis takes place after gastrulation and starts with a ventral foregut evagination that reacts to factor signaling from both cardiac mesoderm and septum transversum mesenchyme. Current knowledge of the progenitor stem cell populations involved in this early embryo liver development is scarce. We describe here a population of 11-day postcoitus c-Kit(low)(CD45/TER119)- liver progenitors that selectively expressed hepatospecific genes and proteins in vivo, was self-maintained in vitro by long-term proliferation, and simultaneously differentiated into functional hepatocytes and bile duct cells. Purified c-Kit(low)(CD45/TER119)- liver cells cocultured with cell-depleted fetal liver fragments engrafted and repopulated the hepatic cell compartments of the latter organoids, suggesting that they may include the embryonic stem cells responsible for liver development.

Abstract
During acute infectious mononucleosis (AIM), large clones of Epstein-Barr virus-specific T lymphocytes are produced. To investigate the dynamics of clonal expansion, we measured cell proliferation during AIM using deuterated glucose to label DNA of dividing cells in vivo, analyzing cells according to CD4, CD8 and CD45 phenotype. The proportion of labeled CD8(+)CD45R0(+) T lymphocytes was dramatically increased in AIM subjects compared to controls (mean 17.5 versus 2.8%/day; p<0.005), indicating very rapid proliferation. Labeling was also increased in CD4(+)CD45R0(+) cells (7.1 versus 2.1%/day; p<0.01), but less so in CD45RA(+) cells. Mathematical modeling, accounting for death of labeled cells and changing pool sizes, gave estimated proliferation rates in CD8(+)CD45R0(+) cells of 11-130% of cells proliferating per day (mean 47%/day), equivalent to a doubling time of 1.5 days and an appearance rate in blood of about 5 x 10(9) cells/day (versus 7 x 10(7) cells/day in controls). Very rapid death rates were also observed amongst labeled cells (range 28-124, mean 57%/day),indicating very short survival times in the circulation. Thus, we have shown direct evidence for massive proliferation of CD8(+)CD45R0(+) T lymphocytes in AIM and demonstrated that rapid cell division continues concurrently with greatly accelerated rates of cell disappearance.

Abstract
Infection with human T-cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV-1) is characterized by long latency periods, indicating that viral gene expression is under tight control. There is presently little information available regarding the nature of extracellular stimuli that can transactivate the regulatory elements of HTLV-1 (i.e., long terminal repeat [LTR]). To gain insight into the biological importance of externally induced activation pathways in virus gene expression, primary and established T cells were transfected with HTLV-1-based reporter gene vectors and then were treated with agents that cross-linked the T-cell receptor (TCR) or the costimulatory CD28 molecule with prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)). We demonstrated that a potent induction of HTLV-1 LTR-driven reporter gene activity was seen only when the three agents were used in combination. Interestingly, similar observations were made when using C91/PL, a cell line that carries integrated HTLV-1 proviral DNA. This TCR-CD28-PGE(2)-mediated increase in virus transcription was dependent on protein kinase A activation and induction of the cAMP response element binding protein. Experiments with a mutated reporter construct further revealed the importance of the Tax-responsive elements in the HTLV-1 LTR in the observed up regulation of virus gene expression when TCR/CD28 engagement was combined with PGE(2) treatment. The protein tyrosine kinases p56(lck) and the transmembrane tyrosine phosphatase CD45 were all found to be involved in TCR-CD28-PGE(2)-directed increase in HTLV-1 LTR activity. This study presents new information on the possible mechanisms underlying reactivation of this retrovirus.

Abstract
This review deals with the analysis of modern literature about structure, catalytical activity, biological role and practical usage of protein tyrosine phosphatase CD45, which is widely distributed in the membranes of hematopoietic cells. The enzyme location makes it a highly sensitive test for estimation of development of such pathological states as immunological and neoplastic diseases, malignant tumors and transplantation responses of tissue tearing away. Unequal enzyme isoforms expressed in various leucocyte cell lines at different stages of development and differentiation are typical of those species. The existence of multiple isoforms is not used only to determine various cell lines, but also causes existence of variable adhesion requirements resulting in local restriction of activity and changes in the substrate binding. There is no doubt that definition of substrate molecules, influence of proteintyrosinephosphatase CD45 translocation and regulation of its activity by other ligands are important questions. Solution of these problems will be useful for searching the correctional means of dysfunctions of the tissues, enriched with protein tyrosine phosphatase CD45.

Abstract
Regulation of tyrosine phosphorylation is a critical control point for integration of environmental signals into cellular responses. This regulation is mediated by the reciprocal actions of protein tyrosine kinases and phosphatases. CD45, the first and prototypic receptor-like protein tyrosine phosphatase, is expressed on all nucleated hematopoietic cells and plays a central role in this process. Studies of CD45 mutant cell lines, CD45-deficient mice, and CD45-deficient humans initially demonstrated the essential role of CD45 in antigen receptor signal transduction and lymphocyte development. It is now known that CD45 also modulates signals emanating from integrin and cytokine receptors. Recent work has focused on regulation of CD45 expression and alternative splicing, isoform-specific differences in signal transduction, and regulation of phosphatase activity. From these studies, a model is emerging in which CD45 affects cellular responses by controlling the relative threshold of sensitivity to external stimuli. Perturbation of this function may contribute to autoimmunity, immunodeficiency, and malignancy. Moreover, recent advances suggest that modulation of CD45 function can have therapeutic benefit in many disease states.

Abstract
The protein tyrosine phosphatase CD45 is expressed as a series of isoforms whose tissue and differentiation stage specificity is broadly conserved in evolution. CD45 has been shown to be an important regulator of a variety of functions in many different hemopoietic lineages. We have chosen an in vivo genetic complementation strategy to investigate the differential functions between isoforms. In this study, we report the characterization of transgenic mice which express the isoforms CD45RO or CD45RB as their only CD45 molecules, at a variety of expression levels and in the majority of hemopoietic lineages. Both CD45RO and CD45RB isoforms reconstitute thymocyte development in a CD45-null mouse background when expressed above a threshold level. The resulting mature T cells populate the peripheral lymphoid organs where they are found at normal frequency. Both CD45RO and CD45RB isoforms also permit T cell function in the periphery, although the threshold for normal function here appears to be set higher than in the thymus. In contrast, neither isoform is capable of fully restoring peripheral B cell maturation, even at levels approaching those in heterozygous CD45(+/-) mice in which maturation is normal. In vitro activation of B cells by Ag-receptor stimulation is only minimally complemented by these CD45RO and CD45RB transgenes. Our results suggest that CD45 isoforms play unique roles which differ between the T and B lineages.

Abstract
Platelet factor 4 (PF4) is a CXC chemokine secreted by activated platelets. PF4 has been shown to promote monocyte survival and induce the differentiation of monocytes into macrophages. However, the effect of PF4 on differentiation of monocytes into dendritic cells (DC) has yet to be determined. As reported previously, monocytes cultured in RPMI medium containing FCS, granulocyte macrophage colony stimulating factor and IL-4 differentiated into CD1a+ DC. When PF4 was added, the expression of CD1a on DC was inhibited. This inhibitory effect was not observed with the other platelet-derived CXC chemokine, beta-thromboglobulin. The relative number of CD1a- DC increased from 17 to 92% when the PF4 concentration was increased from 0 to 10 micro g/ml. The inhibitory effect of PF4 on CD1a expression was reversed by 50 U/ml heparin. DC developed in the PF4-containing media appeared more adhesive to plastic culture wells and had higher light side scatter by flow cytometry. Immunophenotypically, monocyte-derived DC in the presence of increasing concentrations of PF4 proportionally expressed higher CD86 and lower HLA-DR. The levels of CD11c, CD40 and CD80 remained unchanged with or without PF4. Both CD1a+ DC and CD1a- DC were negative for CD14, CD68 and CD83. Functionally, DC developed in the presence of PF4 had their secretion of tumor necrosis factor-alpha and IL-12 reduced by 75 +/- 10 and 79 +/- 13% respectively when they were stimulated by 100 ng/ml lipopolysaccharide and 50 ng/ml IFN-gamma. CD1a- DC developed in the presence of PF4 were not as active as the control CD1a+ DC in stimulating allogeneic T cells to proliferate. In addition, CD1a- DC were less potent in priming naive CD4+ T cells to secrete both type 1 and 2 cytokines. These results indicate that PF4 can influence differentiation and function of monocyte-derived DC.

Abstract
CD45 is the major protein tyrosine phosphatase receptor on T cell surfaces that functions as both a positive and a negative regulator of T cell receptor (TCR) signaling. Although CD45 is required for the activation of TCR-associated Src family kinases, it also dephosphorylates phosphoproteins involved in the TCR-signaling cascade. This study links CD45 to the inhibitory activity of placental protein 14 (PP14), a major soluble protein of pregnancy that is now known to be a direct modulator of T cells and to function by desensitizing TCR signaling. PP14 and CD45 co-capped with each other, pointing to a physical linkage between the two. Interestingly, however, the binding of PP14 to T cell surfaces was not restricted to CD45 alone, with evidence showing that PP14 binds to other surface molecules in a carbohydrate-dependent fashion. Notwithstanding the broader molecular binding potential of PP14, its interaction with CD45 appeared to have special functional significance. Using transfected derivatives of the HPB. ALL mutant T cell line that differ in CD45 expression, we established that the inhibitory effects of PP14 are dependent upon the expression of intact CD45 on T cell surfaces. Based upon these findings, we propose a new immunoregulatory model for PP14, wherein one of its surface molecular targets, CD45, mediates its T cell inhibitory activity, accounting for the intriguing capacity of PP14 to elevate TCR activation thresholds and thereby down-regulate T cell activation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND /aims: The retina possesses a rich network of CD45(+) positive myeloid derived cells that both surround inner retinal vessels and lie within the retina (microglia). Microglia migrate and accumulate in response to neurodegeneration and inflammation. Although microglia express MHC class II, their role remains undefined. The aims of this study are to investigate changes in human microglia phenotype, migration, and activation status in response to pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory stimulation. METHODS Donor eyes were obtained from the Bristol Eye Bank with consent and whole retina was removed. 5 mm retinal trephines were cultured in glucose enhanced RPMI on cell culture insert membranes for up to 72 hours. The effects of lipopolysaccharide/interferon-gamma (LPS/IFNgamma) and transforming growth factor beta inhibits (TGFbeta) stimulation, alone or in combination, on migration, phenotype, and activation status (iNOS expression) of microglia were studied using immunofluorescence and cytokine analysis by ELISA. RESULTS CD45(+) MHC class II(+) retinal microglia were observed within retinal explants, and in culture microglia readily migrated, adhered to culture membrane, downregulated MHC class II expression, and produced interleukin 12 (IL-12) and tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNFalpha). Following LPS/IFNgamma stimulation microglia remained MHC class II(-) iNOS(-), and secreted IL-10. Migration was suppressed and this could be reversed by neutralising IL-10 activity. TGFbeta did not affect ability of microglia to migrate and was unable to reverse LPS/IFNgamma induced suppression. CONCLUSIONS Microglia readily migrate from retinal explants and are subsequently MHC class II(-), iNOS(-), and generate IL-12. In response to LPS/IFNgamma microglia produce IL-10, which inhibits both their migration and activation. TGFbeta was unable to counter LPS/IFNgamma effects. The data infer that microglia respond coordinately, dependent upon initial cytokine stimulation, but paradoxically respond to classic myeloid activation signals.

Abstract
Placental protein 14 (PP14) is a glycoprotein of the lipocalin family that acts as a negative regulator in T cell receptor-mediated activation. In this study, we investigated PP14s potential role in regulating B cell activation. While PP14-inhibited B cell proliferation, IgM secretion and the surface expression of MHC class II, the expression of other surface molecules, such as CD69 and CD86, were unaffected. These observed effects were independent of the anti-IgM concentration used for stimulation, regardless of the presence of either T cells or IL-4, and persisted when B cells were stimulated by stimuli, which circumvent early events during B cell Ag receptor (BCR) activation, namely, protein kinase C activators in combination with Ca(2+) ionophore. Interestingly, we demonstrated that PP14s inhibitory characteristics are reminiscence of that achieved by independent ligation of CD19 using anti-CD19 mAb. Together with our previously reported effects on T cells, these findings identify PP14 as a soluble regulatory factor capable of interacting with both T and B cells in a carbohydrate-dependent manner and as a result it can affect both cellular and humoral immune responses.

Abstract
PAG/Cbp (hereafter named PAG) is a transmembrane adaptor molecule found in lipid rafts. In resting human T cells, PAG is tyrosine phosphorylated and associated with Csk, an inhibitor of Src-related protein tyrosine kinases. These modifications are rapidly lost in response to T-cell receptor (TCR) stimulation. Overexpression of PAG was reported to inhibit TCR-mediated responses in Jurkat T cells. Herein, we have examined the physiological relevance and the mechanism of PAG-mediated inhibition in T cells. Our studies showed that PAG tyrosine phosphorylation and association with Csk are suppressed in response to activation of normal mouse T cells. By expressing wild-type and phosphorylation-defective (dominant-negative) PAG polypeptides in these cells, we found that the inhibitory effect of PAG is dependent on its capacity to be tyrosine phosphorylated and to associate with Csk. PAG-mediated inhibition was accompanied by a repression of proximal TCR signaling and was rescued by expression of a constitutively activated Src-related kinase, implying that it is due to an inactivation of Src kinases by PAG-associated Csk. We also attempted to identify the protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs) responsible for dephosphorylating PAG in T cells. Through cell fractionation studies and analyses of genetically modified mice, we established that PTPs such as PEP and SHP-1 are unlikely to be involved in the dephosphorylation of PAG in T cells. However, the transmembrane PTP CD45 seems to play an important role in this process. Taken together, these data provide firm evidence that PAG is a bona fide negative regulator of T-cell activation as a result of its capacity to recruit Csk. They also suggest that the inhibitory function of PAG in T cells is suppressed by CD45. Lastly, they support the idea that dephosphorylation of proteins on tyrosine residues is critical for the initiation of T-cell activation.

Abstract
Activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AID) plays critical roles in Ig class switch recombination and V(H) gene somatic hypermutation. We investigated the role of IL-4 in AID mRNA induction, the signaling transduction involved in IL-4-mediated AID induction, and the effect of CD45 on IL-4-dependent AID expression in human B cells. IL-4 was able to induce AID expression in human primary B cells and B cell lines, and IL-4-induced AID expression was further enhanced by CD40 signaling. IL-4-dependent AID induction was inhibited by a dominant-negative STAT6, indicating that IL-4 induced AID expression via the Janus kinase (JAK)/STAT6 signaling pathway. Moreover, triggering of CD45 with anti-CD45 Abs can inhibit IL-4-induced AID expression, and this CD45-mediated AID inhibition correlated with the ability of anti-CD45 to suppress IL-4-activated JAK1, JAK3, and STAT6 phosphorylations. Thus, in humans, IL-4 alone is sufficient to drive AID expression, and CD40 signaling is required for optimal AID production; IL-4-induced AID expression is mediated via the JAK/STAT signaling pathway, and can be negatively regulated by the JAK phosphatase activity of CD45. This study indicates that the JAK phosphatase activity of CD45 can be induced by anti-CD45 Ab treatment, and this principle may find clinical application in modulation of JAK activation in immune-mediated diseases.

Abstract
The last decade has seen an exponentially increasing interest in the molecular mechanisms of signal transduction. In T cells, much of the focus has been on protein tyrosine kinase (PTK)-mediated signaling from the T cell receptor (TCR) and cytokine receptors, while the study of protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPases) has lagged behind. However, recent discoveries have revealed that several PTPases play important roles in many different aspects of T cell physiology. We predict that the phosphatases will become a 'hot topic' in the field within the next few years. This review summarizes the current understanding of the regulation and biology of PTPases in T lymphocyte activation.
