Abstract
CD47 is a unique member of the Ig superfamily with a single extracellular Ig domain followed by a multiply membrane-spanning (MMS) domain with five transmembrane segments, implicated in both integrin-dependent and -independent signaling cascades. Essentially all functions of CD47 require both the Ig and MMS domains, raising the possibility that interaction between the two domains is required for normal function. Conservation of Cys residues among CD47 homologues suggested the existence of a disulfide bond between the Ig and MMS domains that was confirmed by chemical digestion and mapped to Cys(33) and Cys(263). Subtle changes in CD47 conformation in the absence of the disulfide were suggested by decreased binding of two anti-Ig domain monoclonal antibodies, decreased SIRPalpha1 binding, and reduced CD47/SIRPalpha1-mediated cell adhesion. Mutagenesis to prevent formation of this disulfide completely disrupted CD47 signaling independent of effects on ligand binding, as assessed by T cell interleukin-2 secretion and Ca(2+) responses. Loss of the disulfide did not affect membrane raft localization of CD47 or its association with alpha(v)beta(3) integrin. Thus, a disulfide bond between the Ig and MMS domains of CD47 is required for normal ligand binding and signal transduction.

Abstract
Polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMNs) are the major source of proteolytic activities involved mainly in tissue injuries observed in chronic inflammatory disorders. High levels of soluble forms of CD23 (the low-affinity receptor for IgE) were found in biological fluids from these patients, and recent reports focused on a CD23-mediated regulation of inflammatory response. In this context, we show here that co-culture of activated PMN with CD23+ B cells resulted in a drastic release of soluble CD23 fragments from the cell surface. This cleavage was inhibited by serine proteases inhibitors, including a1-antitrypsin. We next demonstrated that purified human leukocyte elastase or cathepsin G efficiently cleaved membrane CD23 on B cells with a high specificity. Soluble fragments released by serine proteases-mediated CD23 proteolysis stimulated resting monocytes to produce oxidative burst and proinflammatory cytokine without any co-stimulatory signal. This work strongly supports the idea that the capacity of PMN-derived proteases to release soluble forms of CD23 participates in the inflammatory process mediated by these cells.

Abstract
The presentation of extremely low doses of antigen to T cells is enhanced by immunoglobulin E (IgE)-dependent antigen focusing to CD23, the low-affinity receptor for IgE, expressed on activated B cells. CD23 contains a C-type lectin domain in its extracellular sequence and a targeting signal for coated pits, required for endocytosis, in its cytoplasmic sequence. CD23 is non-covalently associated with the major histocompatibility complex class II antigen, human leucocyte antigen HLA-DR, on the surface of human B cells, but the fate of this complex following endocytosis is unknown. To answer this question we have labelled these proteins on the surface of RPMI 8866 B cells and traced their route through the cytoplasm. Endocytosis mediated by anti-CD23 antibodies (BU38 and MHM6) led to the loss of CD23 from the cells. Endocytosis mediated by an antibody to HLA-DR (CR3/43) or an antigen-IgE complex (NP-BSA-anti-NP IgE), however, led to recycling of the HLA-DR-CD23 complex to the cell surface on a time scale (3-6 hr) consistent with the recycling of HLA-DR in antigen presentation. Along the latter pathway CD23 label was observed in cytoplasmic organelles that resembled the 'compartments for peptide loading' or 'class II vesicles' described by previous authors. Two features of the recycling process may contribute to the efficiency of antigen presentation. Peptide exchange may be facilitated by the proximity of HLA-DR and antigen in peptide loading compartments of the endosomal network. The return of CD23 with HLA-DR to the cell surface may then help to stabilize specific B-cell-T-cell interactions, contributing to T-cell activation.

Abstract
Tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha and interleukin (IL-)1beta, essential players in the pathogenesis of immuno-inflammatory diseases, are strongly induced in monocytes by direct contact with stimulated T lymphocytes. The present study shows that the latter mechanism is inhibited by interferon (IFN)-beta. In co-cultures of autologous T lymphocytes and monocytes stimulated by phytohaemagglutinin (PHA), IFN-beta inhibited the production of TNF-alpha and IL-1beta by 88 and 98%, respectively, whereas the simultaneous production of IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1Ra), was enhanced two-fold. The latter effects of IFN-beta were independent of modulations in IFN-gamma, IL-4 and IL-10 production. When monocytes were activated by plasma membranes of stimulated T cells, IFN-beta slightly inhibited the production of TNF-alpha and IL-1beta, while enhancing 1.5-fold that of IL-1Ra. The latter effect correlated with the persistence of high steady-state levels of IL-1Ra mRNA after 24 h of activation. Membranes isolated from T lymphocytes that had been stimulated in the presence of IFN-beta displayed a 80% decrease in their capacity to induce the production of IL-1beta and TNF-alpha in monocytes, whereas IL-1Ra induction was decreased by only 32%. These results demonstrate that IFN-beta modulates contact-mediated activation of monocytes by acting on both T lymphocytes and monocytes, decreasing the ability of T lymphocytes to induce TNF-alpha and IL-1beta production in monocytes and directly enhancing the production of IL-1Ra in the latter cells.

Abstract
Recent research has shown that in the processes of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), interleukin (IL)-1 is one of the pivotal cytokines in initiating disease, and the body's natural response, IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1Ra), has been shown conclusively to block its effects. In laboratory and animal studies inhibition of IL-1 by either antibodies to IL-1 or IL-1Ra proved beneficial to the outcome. To date, two large well-controlled studies in patients with RA led to the conclusion that IL-1Ra is clinically effective and that it slows progression of bone damage as measured radiographically. Being a specific, selective inhibitor of the IL-1 pathway, IL-1Ra could constitute an important new approach to treating patients with RA that significantly reduces the signs and symptoms of the disease, reduces joint destruction and up to now has proved safe and well tolerated.

Abstract
Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) and interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta), essential components in the pathogenesis of immunoinflammatory diseases, are strongly induced in monocytes by direct contact with stimulated T lymphocytes. This study demonstrates that adult human serum (HS) but not fetal calf or cord blood serum displays inhibitory activity toward the contact-mediated activation of monocytes by stimulated T cells, decreasing the production of both TNF-alpha and IL-1beta. Fractionation of HS and N-terminal microsequencing as well as electroelution of material subjected to preparative electrophoresis revealed that apolipoprotein A-I (apo A-I), a "negative" acute-phase protein, was the inhibitory factor. Functional assays and flow cytometry analyses show that high-density lipoprotein (HDL)-associated apo A-I inhibits contact-mediated activation of monocytes by binding to stimulated T cells, thus inhibiting TNF-alpha and IL-1beta production at both protein and messenger RNA levels. Furthermore, apo A-I inhibits monocyte inflammatory functions in peripheral blood mononuclear cells activated by either specific antigens or lectins without affecting cell proliferation. These results demonstrate a new anti-inflammatory activity of HDL-associated apo A-I that might have modulating functions in nonseptic conditions. Therefore, because HDL has been shown to bind and neutralize lipopolysaccharide, HDL appears to play an important part in modulating both acute and chronic inflammation. The novel anti-inflammatory function of apo A-I reported here might lead to new therapeutic approaches in inflammatory diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, systemic lupus erythematosus, and atherosclerosis.

Abstract
Integrin-associated protein (CD47/IAP) is a pentaspan molecule that regulates integrin functions. We prepared a CD47-deficient Jurkat T cell line to assess its role in the arrest of T cells on inflammatory endothelium. Under flow conditions, constitutive arrest of CD47-deficient cells is strongly decreased as compared to the original cell line, whereas reexpression of CD47 reestablishes their ability to stop. Moreover, cells transfected with a chimera made with the extracellular portion of CD47 and the transmembrane domain of CD7 or several truncated forms of CD47 show that the first transmembrane domain and a short cytoplasmic loop are sufficient for this process. CD47 effect is indirect and depends mainly on the alpha4beta1/VCAM-1 pathway, as shown by blocking antibodies. We detected on endothelium the two CD47 counter receptors known to date: thrombospondin and SIRP1alpha. Blocking experiments show that both are involved. Overall, CD47 participates in the constitutive arrest of T lymphocytes on inflamed vascular endothelium by up-regulating alpha 4beta1 integrins.

Abstract
B cell chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (B-CLL) is characterised by defective apoptosis that cannot be explained solely on the basis of the known chromosomal abnormalities. We and other have now reported that the leukemic cells spontaneously display the inducible isoform of nitric oxide synthase, iNOS. Inhibition of the iNOS pathway leads to increased apoptosis of the tumoral cells in vitro, indicating that the endogenous release of NO contributes to their resistance to the normal apoptotic process. The factors that induce the expression of iNOS in vivo in the leukemic cells are not yet identified. Yet, as interaction of B-CLL leukemic cells with bone marrow stromal cells promotes their survival, the involvement of adhesion molecules and integrins may be suspected. The engagement of CD23 stimulates iNOS activation in the tumoral cells, suggesting that in vivo interaction of CD23 with one of its recognised ligands may contribute to iNOS induction. A role for CD40-CD40 ligand interaction may also be hypothesised. The mechanisms involved in the anti-apoptotic role of NO are not fully understood, but may implicate the inhibition of caspase activity, hence the impairment of the Fas pathway. In addition, the mitochondrial membrane potential disruption appears to be a NO-sensitive step in the apoptosis cascade. The presence of a NOS displaying anti-apoptotic properties has now been recognised in different cell types, including various leukaemia. A better knowledge of the mechanisms governing the ultimate fate of NO, anti- versus pro-apoptotic would allow the development of new therapeutic approaches for the treatment of these diseases.

Abstract
Thrombospondin-1 (TSP-1) is a matricellular protein that regulates cellular phenotype during tissue genesis and repair. It acts as a molecular facilitator by bringing together cytokines, growth factors, matrix components, membrane receptors and extracellular proteases. TSP-1 binds to a wide variety of integrin and non-integrin cell surface receptors. The binding sites for these receptors on TSP-1 are dispersed throughout the molecule, with most domains binding multiple receptors. In some cases, TSP-1 binds to multiple receptors concurrently, and recent data indicate that there is cross-talk between the receptor systems. Thus, TSP-1 may function to direct the clustering of receptors to specialized domains for adhesion and signal transduction.

Abstract
Coxiella burnetii, the agent of Q fever, enters human monocytes through alpha(v)beta(3) integrin and survives inside host cells. In addition, C. burnetii stimulates the synthesis of inflammatory cytokines including tumor necrosis factor (TNF) by monocytes. We studied the role of the interaction of C. burnetii with THP-1 monocytes in TNF production. TNF transcripts and TNF release reached maximum values within 4 h. Almost all monocytes bound C. burnetii after 4 h, while the percentage of phagocytosing monocytes did not exceed 20%. Cytochalasin D, which prevented the uptake of C. burnetii without interfering with its binding, did not affect the expression of TNF mRNA. Thus, bacterial adherence, but not phagocytosis, is necessary for TNF production by monocytes. The monocyte alpha(v)beta(3) integrin was involved in TNF synthesis since peptides containing RGD sequences and blocking antibodies against alpha(v)beta(3) integrin inhibited TNF transcripts induced by C. burnetii. Nevertheless, the cross-linking of alpha(v)beta(3) integrin by specific antibodies was not sufficient to induce TNF synthesis. The signal delivered by C. burnetii was triggered by bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Polymyxin B inhibited the TNF production stimulated by C. burnetii, and soluble LPS isolated from C. burnetii largely mimicked viable bacteria. On the other hand, avirulent variants of C. burnetii induced TNF production through an increased binding to monocytes rather than through the potency of their LPS. We suggest that the adherence of C. burnetii to monocytes via alpha(v)beta(3) integrin enables surface LPS to stimulate TNF production in THP-1 monocytes.

Abstract
One of the recently described antigens broadly expressed on human leukocytes is CDw149, which was defined at the 6th Human Leukocyte Differentiation Antigen (HLDA) Workshop by means of 2 monoclonal antibodies (mAbs). Molecular characterization of this antigen has been lacking. In the present study we demonstrate that these anti-CDw149 mAbs actually recognize a clustered subset of a well-defined membrane protein, CD47, also known as integrin-associated protein (IAP). This clustered subset is present on leukocytes but not erythrocytes. The anti-CDw149 mAbs bind with only low affinity to a monomeric (unclustered) subset of CD47 but with high avidity to the CD47 clusters. A fraction of CD47 is associated with large complexes containing cytoplasmic signaling molecules (Src family kinases and heterotrimeric G-proteins) similar to glycosphingolipid-enriched microdomains (GEMs), which may explain the previously described signaling capacity of CD47. The low-affinity anti-CD47 mAbs may be useful tools targeting specific receptor complexes involved in cell activation. Specific reactivity of low-affinity mAbs with clustered subsets of cell surface antigens may more generally explain the nature of poorly defined "activation forms" or activation neoepitopes described previously for several cell surface molecules.

Abstract
Vascular basement membrane is an important regulator of angiogenesis and undergoes many alterations during angiogenesis and these changes are speculated to influence neovascularization. Recently, fragments of collagen molecules have been identified to possess anti-angiogenic activity. Tumstatin (alpha3(IV)NC1 domain) is one such novel molecule with distinct anti-tumor properties and possesses an N-terminal (amino acids 54-132) anti-angiogenic and a C-terminal (amino acids 185-203) anti-tumor cell activity (Maeshima, Y., et al. 2000) J. Biol. Chem. 275, 21340-21348). Previous studies have identified the 185-203 amino acid sequence as a ligand for alpha(v)beta(3) integrin (Shahan, T. A., et al. (1999) Cancer Res. 59, 4584-4590). In the present study, we found distinct additional RGD-independent alpha(v)beta(3) integrin binding site within 54-132 amino acids of tumstatin. This site is not essential for inhibition of tumor cell proliferation but necessary for the anti-angiogenic activity. A fragment of tumstatin containing 54-132 amino acid (tum-2) binds both endothelial cells and melanoma cells but only inhibited proliferation of endothelial cells, with no effect on tumor cell proliferation. A similar experiment with fragment of tumstatin containing the 185-203 amino acid (tum-4) demonstrates that it binds both endothelial cells and melanoma cells but only inhibits the proliferation of melanoma cells. The presence of cyclic RGD peptides did not affect the alpha(v)beta(3) integrin-mediated activity of tumstatin, although significant inhibition of endothelial cell binding to vitronectin was observed. The two distinct RGD-independent binding sites on tumstatin suggest unique alpha(v)beta(3) integrin-mediated mechanisms governing the two distinct anti-tumor properties of tumstatin.

Abstract
Abstractβ2 integrins are involved in the recruitment of leukocytes to inflammatory sites and in cellular activation. We demonstrate that ligation of CD11b (Mac-1, CR3) or CD11c (p150, CR4) alpha chains of β2 integrins by mAbs or soluble chimeric CD23 (sCD23) on human freshly isolated monocytes rapidly stimulates high levels of interleukin-1β production. This induction takes place at the transcriptional level and is regulated by members of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) family. Indeed, stimulation of monocytes through engagement of CD11b or CD11c results in the phosphorylation and activation of ERK1, ERK2, and p38/SAPK2 MAP kinases. U0126, a potent inhibitor of the upstream activator of ERK1/2, ie, MEK1/2, suppresses IL-1β messenger RNA (mRNA) expression in a dose-dependent fashion, showing the implication of this pathway in the transcriptional control of IL-1β production. On the other hand, inhibition of p38 by SB203580 indicates that this MAPK is involved in the control of IL-1β production at both transcriptional and translational levels. Together these data demonstrate that ligation of CD11b and CD11c β2 integrins by mAbs or sCD23 fusion proteins triggers the activation of 2 distinct MAPK signaling pathways that cooperate in controlling IL-1β synthesis at different levels.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis-affected cartilage exhibits enhanced expression of fibronectin (FN) and osteopontin (OPN) mRNA in differential display and bioinformatics screen. Functional genomic analysis shows that the engagement of the integrin receptors alpha 5 beta 1 and alpha v beta 3 of FN and OPN, respectively, have profound effects on chondrocyte functions. Ligation of alpha 5 beta 1 using activating mAb JBS5 (which acts as agonist similar to FN N-terminal fragment) up-regulates the inflammatory mediators such as NO and PGE2 as well as the cytokines, IL-6 and IL-8. Furthermore, up-regulation of these proinflammatory mediators by alpha 5 beta1 integrin ligation is mediated via induction and autocrine production of IL-1 beta, because type II soluble IL-1 decoy receptor inhibits their production. In contrast, alpha v beta 3 complex-specific function-blocking mAb (LM609), which acts as an agonist similar to OPN, attenuates the production of IL-1 beta, NO, and PGE2 (triggered by alpha 5 beta 1, IL-1 beta, IL-18, or IL-1 beta, TNF-alpha, plus LPS) in a dominant negative fashion by osteoarthritis-affected cartilage and activated bovine chondrocytes. These data demonstrate a cross-talk in signaling mechanisms among integrins and show that integrin-mediated "outside in" and "inside out" signaling very likely influences cartilage homeostasis, and its deregulation may play a role in the pathogenesis of osteoarthritis.

Abstract
Integrin-associated protein (CD47) is a multiply membrane spanning member of the immunoglobulin superfamily that regulates some adhesion-dependent cell functions through formation of a complex with alphavbeta3 integrin and trimeric G proteins. Cholesterol is critical for the association of the three protein components of the supramolecular complex and for its signaling. The multiply membrane spanning domain of IAP is required for complex formation because it binds cholesterol. The supramolecular complex forms preferentially in glycosphingolipid-enriched membrane domains. Binding of mAb 10G2 to the IAP Ig domain, previously shown to be required for association with alphavbeta3, is affected by both the multiply membrane spanning domain and cholesterol. These data demonstrate that cholesterol is an essential component of the alphavbeta3/IAP/G protein signaling complex, presumably acting through an effect on IAP conformation.

Goodman MG. Mechanism of synergy between T cell signals and C8-substituted guanine nucleosides in humoral immunity: B lymphotropic cytokines induce responsiveness to 8-mercaptoguanosine. Br J Pharmacol 1986; 167:1415-30.

Abstract
B lymphocytes require a source of T cell-like help to produce antibody to T cell-dependent antigens. T cell-derived lymphokines and C8-substituted guanine ribonucleosides (such as 8-mercaptoguanosine; 8MGuo) are effective sources of such T cell-like help. Addition of T cell-derived lymphokines to antigen-activated B cells together with 8MGuo results in synergistic B cell differentiation, amplifying the sum of the individual responses twofold to four-fold. Lymphokine activity is required at initiation of culture for optimal synergy with 8MGuo, whereas the nucleoside can be added up to 48 hr after the lymphokines with full synergy. 8MGuo provides a perceived T cell-like differentiation signal to B cells from immunodeficient xid mice, thereby distinguishing a subset of Lyb-5- nucleoside-responsive B cells from those activated by soluble anti-mu followed by B cell stimulatory factor-1, interleukin 1, and B cell differentiation factors, which are Lyb-5+. Moreover, at least a subset of the B cells recruited by the synergistic interaction of lymphokines and nucleoside is distinct from that responsive to 8MGuo + antigen, insofar as Sephadex G-10 nonadherent xid B cells fail to respond to either 8MGuo or lymphokines alone, but do respond to the combination. A distinct subpopulation can also be demonstrated among normal B cells by limiting dilution analysis in which the precursor frequency of antigen-reactive B cells in the presence of lymphokines or nucleoside alone increases substantially when both agents are present together. In concert with the kinetic data, these observations suggest that synergy derives at least in part from the ability of lymphokines to induce one or more elements the absence of which limits the capacity of a distinct B cell subpopulation to respond to 8MGuo.
