Abstract
Glyco-immune checkpoint receptors, molecules that inhibit immune cell activity following binding to glycosylated cell-surface antigens, are emerging as attractive targets for cancer immunotherapy. Defining biologically relevant ligands that bind and activate such receptors, however, has historically been a significant challenge. Here, we present a CRISPRi genomic screening strategy that allowed unbiased identification of the key genes required for cell-surface presentation of glycan ligands on leukemia cells that bind the glyco-immune checkpoint receptors Siglec-7 and Siglec-9. This approach revealed a selective interaction between Siglec-7 and the mucin-type glycoprotein CD43. Further work identified a specific N-terminal glycopeptide region of CD43 containing clusters of disialylated O-glycan tetrasaccharides that form specific Siglec-7 binding motifs. Knockout or blockade of CD43 in leukemia cells relieves Siglec-7-mediated inhibition of immune killing activity. This work identifies a potential target for immune checkpoint blockade therapy and represents a generalizable approach to dissection of glycan-receptor interactions in living cells.

Abstract
BACKGROUND T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) is an aggressive disease with a poor cure rate for relapsed/resistant patients. Due to the lack of T-cell restricted targetable antigens, effective immune-therapeutics are not presently available and the treatment of chemo-refractory T-ALL is still an unmet clinical need. To develop novel immune-therapy for T-ALL, we generated an afucosylated monoclonal antibody (mAb) (ahuUMG1) and two different bispecific T-cell engagers (BTCEs) against UMG1, a unique CD43-epitope highly and selectively expressed by T-ALL cells from pediatric and adult patients. METHODS UMG1 expression was assessed by immunohistochemistry (IHC) on a wide panel of normal tissue microarrays (TMAs), and by flow cytometry on healthy peripheral blood/bone marrow-derived cells, on 10 different T-ALL cell lines, and on 110 T-ALL primary patient-derived cells. CD43-UMG1 binding site was defined through a peptide microarray scanning. ahuUMG1 was generated by Genetic Glyco-Engineering technology from a novel humanized mAb directed against UMG1 (huUMG1). BTCEs were generated as IgG1-(scFv)2 constructs with bivalent (2+2) or monovalent (2+1) CD3ε arms. Antibody dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC), antibody dependent cellular phagocytosis (ADCP) and redirected T-cell cytotoxicity assays were analysed by flow cytometry. In vivo antitumor activity of ahUMG1 and UMG1-BTCEs was investigated in NSG mice against subcutaneous and orthotopic xenografts of human T-ALL. RESULTS Among 110 T-ALL patient-derived samples, 53 (48.1%) stained positive (24% of TI/TII, 82% of TIII and 42.8% of TIV). Importantly, no expression of UMG1-epitope was found in normal tissues/cells, excluding cortical thymocytes and a minority (<5%) of peripheral blood T lymphocytes. ahUMG1 induced strong ADCC and ADCP on T-ALL cells in vitro, which translated in antitumor activity in vivo and significantly extended survival of treated mice. Both UMG1-BTCEs demonstrated highly effective killing activity against T-ALL cells in vitro. We demonstrated that this effect was specifically exerted by engaged activated T cells. Moreover, UMG1-BTCEs effectively antagonized tumor growth at concentrations >2 log lower as compared with ahuUMG1, with significant mice survival advantage in different T-ALL models in vivo. CONCLUSION Altogether our findings, including the safe UMG1-epitope expression profile, provide a framework for the clinical development of these innovative immune-therapeutics for this still orphan disease.

Abstract
Immunotherapy has proven beneficial in many hematologic and nonhematologic malignancies, but immunotherapy for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) is hampered by the lack of tumor-specific targets. We took advantage of the tumor-immunotherapeutic effect of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and searched the B-cell repertoire of a patient with a lasting and potent graft-versus-AML response for the presence of AML-specific antibodies. We identified an antibody, AT1413, that was of donor origin and that specifically recognizes a novel sialylated epitope on CD43 (CD43s). Strikingly, CD43s is expressed on all World Health Organization 2008 types of AML and MDS. AT1413 induced antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity and complement-dependent cytotoxicity of AML cells in vitro. Of note, AT1413 was highly efficacious against AML cells in a humanized mouse model without affecting nonmalignant human myeloid cells, suggesting AT1413 has potential as a therapeutic antibody.

Abstract
CD43 is one of the most abundant co-stimulatory molecules on a T-cell surface; it transduces activation signals through its cytoplasmic domain, contributing to modulation of the outcome of T-cell responses. The aim of this study was to uncover new signalling pathways regulated by this sialomucin. Analysis of changes in protein abundance allowed us to identify pyruvate kinase isozyme M2 (PKM2), an enzyme of the glycolytic pathway, as an element potentially participating in the signalling cascade resulting from the engagement of CD43 and the T-cell receptor (TCR). We found that the glycolytic activity of this enzyme was not significantly increased in response to TCR+CD43 co-stimulation, but that PKM2 was tyrosine phosphorylated, suggesting that it was performing moonlight functions. We report that phosphorylation of both Y105 of PKM2 and of Y705 of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 was induced in response to TCR+CD43 co-stimulation, resulting in activation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase 5/extracellular signal-regulated kinase 5 (MEK5/ERK5) pathway. ERK5 and the cAMP response element binding protein (CREB) were activated, and c-Myc and nuclear factor-κB (p65) nuclear localization, as well as Bad phosphorylation, were augmented. Consistent with this, expression of human CD43 in a murine T-cell hybridoma favoured cell survival. Altogether, our data highlight novel signalling pathways for the CD43 molecule in T lymphocytes, and underscore a role for CD43 in promoting cell survival through non-glycolytic functions of metabolic enzymes.

Abstract
Co‐receptors, being either co‐stimulatory or co‐inhibitory, play a pivotal role in T‐cell immunity. Several studies have indicated that CD43, one of the abundant T‐cell surface glycoproteins, acts not only as a potent co‐receptor but also as a negative regulator for T‐cell activation. Here we demonstrate that co‐stimulation of human peripheral blood (PB) T cells through two distinct CD43 epitopes recognized by monoclonal antibodies (mAb) CD43‐6E5 (T6E5‐act) and CD43‐10G7 (T10G7‐act) potently induced T‐cell proliferation. However, T‐cell co‐stimulation through two CD43 epitopes differentially regulated activation of nuclear factor of activated T cells (NFAT) and nuclear factor‐κB (NF‐κB) transcription factors, T‐cell cytokine production and effector function. T6E5‐act produced high levels of interleukin‐22 (IL‐22) and interferon‐γ (IFN‐γ) similar to T cells activated via CD28 (TCD28‐act), whereas T10G7‐act produced low levels of inflammatory cytokines but higher levels of regulatory cytokines transforming growth factor‐β (TGF‐β) and interleukin‐35 (IL‐35). Compared with T6E5‐act or to TCD28‐act, T10G7‐act performed poorly in response to re‐stimulation and further acquired a T‐cell suppressive function. T10G7‐act did not directly inhibit proliferation of responder T cells, but formed stable heterotypic clusters with dendritic cells (DC) via CD2 to constrain activation of responder T cells. Together, our data demonstrate that CD43 is a unique and polarizing regulator of T‐cell function.

Abstract
An important step of innate immune response is the recruitment of polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) to injured tissues through chemotactic molecules. Galectins, a family of endogenous lectins, participate in numerous functions such as lymphoid cell migration, homing, cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions. Particularly, galectin-3 (Gal-3) and -9 have been implicated in the modulation of acute and chronic inflammation by inducing the directional migration of monocytes/macrophages and eosinophils, whereas Gal-1 is considered to function as an anti-inflammatory molecule, capable of inhibiting the influx of PMN to the site of injury. In this study, we assessed the effect of Gal-1 on neutrophil recruitment, in the absence of additional inflammatory insults. Contrasting with its capacity to inhibit cell trafficking and modulate the release of mediators described in models of acute inflammation and autoimmunity, we evidenced that Gal-1 has the capacity to induce neutrophil migration both in vitro and in vivo. This effect is not mediated through a G-protein-coupled receptor but potentially through the sialoglycoprotein CD43, via carbohydrate binding and through the p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway. These results suggest a novel biological function for CD43 on neutrophils and highlight that depending on the environment, Gal-1 can act either as chemoattractant or, as a molecule that negatively regulates migration under acute inflammatory conditions, underscoring the potential of Gal-1 as a target for innovative drug development.

Abstract
Galectin-1 is a galactoside-binding lectin expressed in multiple tissues that has pleiotropic immunomodulatory functions. We previously showed that galectin-1 activates human monocyte-derived dendritic cells (MDDCs) and triggers a specific genetic program that up-regulates DC migration through the extracellular matrix, an integral property of mucosal DCs. Here, we identify the galectin-1 receptors on MDDCs and immediate downstream effectors of galectin-1-induced MDDC activation and migration. Galectin-1 binding to surface CD43 and CD45 on MDDCs induced an unusual unipolar co-clustering of these receptors and activates a dose-dependent calcium flux that is abrogated by lactose. Using a kinome screen and a systems biology approach, we identified Syk and protein kinase C tyrosine kinases as mediators of the DC activation effects of galectin-1. Galectin-1, but not lipopolysaccharide, stimulated Syk phosphorylation and recruitment of phosphorylated Syk to the CD43 and CD45 co-cluster on MDDCs. Inhibitors of Syk and protein kinase C signaling abrogated galectin-1-induced DC activation as monitored by interleukin-6 production; and MMP-1, -10, and -12 gene up-regulation; and enhanced migration through the extracellular matrix. The latter two are specific features of galectin-1-activated DCs. Interestingly, we also found that galectin-1 can prime DCs to respond more quickly to low dose lipopolysaccharide stimulation. Finally, we underscore the biological relevance of galectin-1-enhanced DC migration by showing that intradermal injection of galectin-1 in MRL-fas mice, which have a defect in skin DC emigration, increased the in vivo migration of dermal DCs to draining lymph nodes.

Abstract
Binding of Ag by the Ag receptor in combination with other stimuli provided by costimulatory receptors triggers the expansion and differentiation of T lymphocytes. However, it is unclear whether the time when costimulatory molecules interact with their counterreceptors with regards to Ag recognition leads to different T cell responses. Provided that the coreceptor molecule CD43 is a very abundant molecule evenly distributed on the membrane of T cell surface protruding 45 nm from the cell, we hypothesized that CD43 is one of the first molecules that interacts with the APC and thus modulates TCR activation. We show that engaging CD43 before or simultaneously with the TCR inhibited Lck-Src homology 2 domain containing phosphatase-1 interaction, preventing the onset of a negative feedback loop on TCR signals, favoring high levels of IL-2, cell proliferation, and secretion of proinflammatory cytokines and chemokines. In contrast, the intracellular signals resulting of engaging the TCR before CD43 were insufficient to induce IL-2 production and cell proliferation. Interestingly, when stimulated through the TCR and CD28, cells proliferated vigorously, independent of the order with which molecules were engaged. These results indicate that CD43 induces a signaling cascade that prolongs the duration of TCR signaling and support the temporal summation model for T cell activation. In addition to the strength and duration of intracellular signals, our data underscore temporality with which certain molecules are engaged as yet another mechanism to fine tune T cell signal quality, and ultimately immune function.

Abstract
The recruitment of memory T cells from blood into tissues is a central element of immune surveillance and adaptive immune responses and a key feature of chronic cutaneous inflammatory diseases such as psoriasis and atopic dermatitis. Human memory T cells that infiltrate skin express the carbohydrate epitope cutaneous lymphocyte-associated antigen (CLA). Expression of the CLA epitope on T cells has been described on P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1 (PSGL-1) and associated with the acquisition of both E-selectin and P-selectin ligand functions. In this report, we show that CD43, a sialomucin expressed constitutively on T cells, can also be decorated with the CLA epitope and serve as an E-selectin ligand. CLA expressed on CD43 was found exclusively on the high-molecular-weight (125 kDa) glycoform bearing core-2-branched O-linked glycans. CLA+ CD43 purified from human T cells supported tethering and rolling in shear flow via E-selectin but did not support binding of P-selectin. The identification and characterization of CD43 as a T-cell E-selectin ligand distinct from PSGL-1 expands the role of CD43 in the regulation of T-cell trafficking and provides new targets for the modulation of immune functions in skin.

Abstract
The turnover of phosphoinositides leading to PKC activation constitutes one of the principal axes of intracellular signaling. In T lymphocytes, the enhanced and prolonged PKC activation resulting from the engagement of the TcR and co-receptor molecules ensures a productive T cell response. The CD43 co-receptor promotes activation and proliferation, by inducing IL-2 secretion and CD69 expression. CD43 engagement has been shown to promote phosphoinositide turnover and DAG production. Moreover, PKC activation was found to be required for the activation of the MAP kinase pathway in response to CD43 ligation. Here we show that CD43 engagement led to the membrane translocation and enzymatic activity of specific PKC isoenzymes: cPKC (alpha/beta), nPKC (epsilon and theta;), aPKC (zeta) and PKCmu. We also show that activation of PKCtheta; resulting from CD43 ligation induced CD69 expression through an ERK-dependent pathway leading to AP-1, NF-kappaB activation and an ERK independent pathway promoting NFAT activation. Together, these data suggest that PKCtheta; plays a critical role in the co-stimulatory functions of CD43 in human T cells.

Abstract
Abstract
The CD43 lymphocyte surface receptor is involved in the regulation of lymphocyte adhesion and activation. Many CD43 functions remain controversial or unclear, and it is not known to which extent CD43 signaling pathways are shared with or distinct from those used by the T-cell receptor (TCR). Here, we systematically compared signaling events and target gene expression induced by CD43 or T-cell costimulation in primary human peripheral T cells. These studies identify nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) p65 serine 468 as a novel inducible phosphorylation site strongly induced by T-cell costimulation and only weakly triggered by CD43 ligation. We also identified CD43 as a novel Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) activator and a comprehensive analysis of further signaling events suggests that both stimuli use overlapping but also distinct signaling pathways. Microarray analysis of inflammatory genes shows 1 group of genes coregulated by both stimuli and 2 further groups of target genes affected solely by costimulation or primarily by CD43.

Abstract
We have used HSCA-2, an mAb that recognizes a sialic acid-dependent epitope on the low molecular mass (approximately 115-kDa) glycoform of CD43 that is expressed in resting T and NK cells, to examine the expression characteristics and stimulatory functions of CD43 in human CD4+ memory T cells. Having previously reported that the memory cells that respond to recall Ags in a CD4+ CD45RO+ T cell population almost all belong to a subset whose surface CD43 expression levels are elevated, we now find that exposing these same memory T cells to HSCA-2 mAb markedly increases their proliferative responsiveness to recall Ags. We think it unlikely that this increase in responsiveness is a result of CD43-mediated monocyte activation, especially given that the HSCA-2 mAb differs from all previously used CD43 mAbs in having no obvious binding specificity for monocyte CD43. Predictably, treatment with HSCA-2 mAb did not lead to significant recall responses in CD4+ CD45RO+ T cells, whose CD43 expression levels were similar to or lower than those of naive cells. Other experiments indicated that the HSCA-2 mAb was capable of enhancing the proliferative responsiveness of CD4+ memory T cells that had been exposed to polyclonal stimulation by monocyte-bound CD3 mAb and could also act in synergy with CD28 mAb to enhance the responsiveness of CD4+ T cells to CD3 stimulation. Taken together, these findings suggest that the CD43 molecules expressed on CD4+ memory T cells may be capable of enhancing the costimulatory signaling and hence providing accessory functions to TCR-mediated activation processes.

Abstract
The CD43 coreceptor molecule has been shown to participate in lymphocyte adhesion and activation. Leukocyte homotypic aggregation results from a cascade of intracellular signals delivered to the cells upon engagement of different cell-surface molecules with their natural ligands. This phenomenon requires an active metabolism, reorganization of the cytoskeleton, and relocalization of cell-surface molecules. The aim of this study was to identify some of the key members of the signaling cascade leading to T lymphocyte homotypic aggregation following CD43 engagement. CD43-mediated homotypic aggregation of T lymphocytes required the participation of Src kinases, phospholipase C-gamma2, protein kinase C, phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase, as well as extracellular-regulated kinase 1/2 and p38. Data shown here suggest that these signaling molecules play a central role in regulating actin cytoskeleton remodeling after CD43 ligation. We also evaluated the ability of immunomodulatory drugs such as leflunomide to block the CD43-mediated homotypic aggregation. Leflunomide blocked the recruitment of targets of the Src family kinases as well as actin polymerization, diminishing the ability of T lymphocytes to aggregate in response to CD43-specific signals, suggesting that this drug might control the migration and recruitment of lymphoid cells to inflamed tissues.

Abstract
CD43 is an abundant cell surface sialoglycoprotein implicated in hemopoietic cell adhesion and activation. Cell stimulation through CD43 results in recruitment of different signaling proteins, including members of the Src family kinases, Syk, phospholipase Cgamma2, the adapter protein Shc, the guanine nucleotide exchange factor Vav, and activation of protein kinase C. In this study, we report that in human T lymphocytes, the zeta-chain is part of the CD43 signaling pathway. Upon CD43 engagement, the zeta-chain was tyrosine-phosphorylated, generating docking sites for tyrosine-phosphorylated zeta-associated protein of 70 kDa and Vav. In vitro kinase assays suggested that zeta-associated protein of 70 kDa could account for the kinase activity associated with the zeta-chain following CD43 engagement. Cross-linking CD43 on the surface of the Lck-deficient JCaM.1 cells failed to phosphorylate the zeta-chain and associated proteins, suggesting that Lck is a key element in the CD43 signaling pathway leading to zeta phosphorylation. CD43 engagement with beads coated with anti-CD43 mAb resulted in concentration of the zeta-chain toward the bead attachment site, but interestingly, the distribution of the T cell Ag receptor complex remained unaffected. Recruitment of the zeta-chain through CD43-mediated signals was not restricted to T lymphocytes because phosphorylation and redistribution of the zeta-chain was also observed in NK cells. Our results provide evidence that the zeta-chain functions as a scaffold molecule in the CD43 signaling pathway, favoring the recruitment and formation of downstream signaling complexes involved in the CD43-mediated cell activation of T lymphocytes and other leukocytes such as NK cells.

Abstract
Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) transcriptional activity is regulated by several cytokines and T cell activators. CD43 (sialophorin) is a sialoglycoprotein expressed on the surface of a wide variety of blood cells including T lymphocytes. Several studies have shown that CD43 ligation induces proliferation and activation of human T lymphocytes. We were thus interested in defining whether CD43-mediated signaling events can modulate the life cycle of HIV-1. We demonstrate here that CD43 cross-linking potentiates HIV-1 promoter-driven activity and virus production that is seen following the engagement of the T-cell receptor (TCR).CD3 complex. This effect is independent of the CD28 co-stimulatory molecule and is mediated by both NF-kappaB and NFAT transcription factors. A number of signal transducers known to be involved in the TCR/CD3-dependent signal transduction pathway, including p56(lck), p36(lat), and SLP-76, as well as capacitative entry of calcium, are crucial for the noticed CD43 co-stimulatory effect. Calcium mobilization studies indicate that a synergy is occurring between CD43- and TCR/CD3-mediated signaling events leading to an augmented calcium release. These data suggest that CD43 can be seen as a co-stimulatory cell surface constituent that can modulate HIV-1 expression in T lymphocytes.

Abstract
CD43 (leukosialin, sialophorin), an abundant leukocyte surface sialoglycoprotein, regulates leukocyte adhesion and transmits activating signals in T cells and dendritic cells. Immobilized anti-CD43 monoclonal antibody (mAb) MEM-59 has been previously shown to induce apoptosis of hematopoietic progenitors. In this study we show that it also triggers apoptosis of the myeloid progenitor-derived cell line TF-1. The kinetics of the MEM-59-induced apoptosis were unusually slow, with the first apoptotic cells appearing 36-48 h after their contact with the immobilized antibody; in 5 days, 90% of the cells were dead. CD43-mediated apoptosis was enhanced by coimmobilized anti-CD45 mAb and partly suppressed by coimmobilized anti-CD50 (ICAM-3) or anti-CD99 mAb. The MEM-59-triggered apoptosis of TF-1 cells was also inhibited by the overexpression of an apoptotic regulator, Daxx. CD43-mediated apoptosis was preceded by the repression of the DNA binding activity of the transcription factor AP-1. DNA array screening revealed that the expression of several genes encoding apoptosis-regulating proteins, including 14-3-3 proteins and the granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) receptor beta-subunit, was repressed in TF-1 cells bound to immobilized MEM-59. The down-regulation of 14-3-3 proteins and GM-CSF receptor beta was accompanied by translocation of the proapoptotic protein Bad to the mitochondria. These results suggest that engagement of CD43 may, presumably through the repressing transcription, initiate a Bad-dependent apoptotic pathway.

Abstract
CD43, one of the most abundant glycoproteins on the T cell surface, has been implicated in selection and maturation of thymocytes and migration, adhesion, and activation of mature T cells. The adapter molecule Cbl has been shown to be a negative regulator of Ras. Furthermore, it may also regulate intracellular signaling through the formation of several multi-molecular complexes. Here we investigated the role of Cbl in the CD43-mediated signaling pathway in human T cells. Unlike T cell receptor signaling, the interaction of the adapter protein Cbl with Vav and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase, resulting from CD43-specific signals, is independent of Cbl tyrosine phosphorylation, suggesting an alternative mechanism of interaction. CD43 signals induced a Cbl serine phosphorylation-dependent interaction with the tau-isoform of 14-3-3. protein. Protein kinase C-mediated Cbl serine phosphorylation was required for this interaction, because the PKC inhibitor RO-31-8220 prevented it, as well as 14-3-3 dimerization. Moreover, mutation of Cbl serine residues 619, 623, 639, and 642 abolished the interaction between Cbl and 14-3-3. Overexpression of Cbl in Jurkat cells inhibited the CD43-dependent activation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway and AP-1 transcriptional activity, confirming nevertheless a negative role for Cbl in T cell signaling. However, under normal conditions, PKC activation resulting from CD43 engagement was required to activate the MAPK pathway, suggesting that phosphorylation of Cbl on serine residues by PKC and its association with 14-3-3 molecules may play a role in preventing the Cbl inhibitory effect on the Ras-MAPK pathway. These data suggest that by inducing its phosphorylation on serine residues, CD43-mediated signals may regulate the molecular associations and functions of the Cbl adapter protein.

Abstract
Although numerous reports document a role for CD43 in T cell signaling, the direct participation of this molecule in cell activation has been questioned. In this study we show that CD43 ligation on human normal peripheral T cells was sufficient to induce interleukin-2, CD69, and CD40-L gene expression, without requiring signals provided by additional receptor molecules. This response was partially inhibited by cyclosporin A and staurosporine, suggesting the participation of both the Ca(2+) and the protein kinase C pathways in CD43 signaling. Consistent with the transient CD43-dependent intracellular Ca(2+) peaks reported by others, signals generated through the CD43 molecule resulted in the induction of NF-AT DNA binding activity. CD43-dependent signals resulted also in AP-1 and NFkappaB activation, probably as a result of protein kinase C involvement. AP-1 complexes bound to the AP-1 sequence contained c-Jun, and those bound to the NF-AT-AP-1 composite site contained c-Jun and Fos. NFkappaB complexes containing p65 could be found as early as 1 h after CD43 cross-linking, suggesting that CD43 participates in early events of T cell activation. The induction of the interleukin-2, CD69, and CD-40L genes and the participation of AP-1, NF-AT, and NFkappaB in the CD43-mediated signaling cascade implicate an important role for this molecule in the regulation of gene expression and cell function.

Abstract
CD43 (leukosialin, sialophorin) is a cell surface mucin expressed at high levels on most leukocytes and is reported to be involved in adhesion, anti-adhesion, and signal transduction prodders. Regulation of its expression is thought to take place through methylation of the DNA in the nonproducing cells, and the methylation inhibitor 5-azacytidine induces expression of the sialophorin gene. Here we report three cases of patients with myelodysplastic syndromes in which acquired severe deficiency of the CD43 antigen on the surface of most hemopoietic cells was observed. Peripheral blood mononuclear (PBMC) cells from 32 MDS patients and 20 healthy individuals were analyzed by flow cytometry after labeling with an anti-CD43 (DF-T1) monoclonal antibody. In 1 patient with refractory anemia with excess of blasts (RAEB) and 2 patients with refractory anemia with excess of blasts in transformation (RAEB-t), the percentages of CD43(+) PBMC were 3.8%, 6%, and 9.9%, respectively. The deficiency was observed at protein and RNA level as confirmed by western and southern blot, while analysis of the DNA by single-strand conformation polymorphism and sequencing did not reveal any difference in the gene sequence between the CD43(+) and CD43(-) cells of these patients. It is known that patients with MDS may have normal and dysplastic population of hemopoietic cells. Further studies are needed to reveal the mechanism of downregulation of the gene in these 3 patients and whether the phenomenon is related to the dysplastic population only or not.

Abstract
In a screen designed to identify genes that regulate T cell receptor (TCR)/CD3-mediated apoptosis, we found that high level expression of CD43 protected T cell hybridomas from activation-induced cell death. The protection appears to result from its capacity to block Fas-mediated death signals rather than from inhibition of the upregulation of Fas and/or Fas ligand after T cell stimulation. We found that peripheral CD4(+) T cells can be divided into two subsets based on the level of CD43 surface expression. The CD4(+)CD43(low) subset exhibits a naive T cell phenotype, being CD62L(high)CD45RB(high)CD44(low), whereas CD4(+)CD43(high) cells exhibit a memory phenotype, being CD62L(low)CD45RB(low)CD44(high). Recent studies have demonstrated that engagement of TCR and Fas induces naive CD4(+) T cells to undergo apoptosis, and the same treatment enhances the proliferation of memory CD4(+) T cells. We confirm here that peripheral CD4(+)CD43(high) T cells are resistant to TCR/CD3-mediated cell death. These results suggest that the expression levels of CD43 on naive and memory CD4(+) T cells determine their susceptibility to Fas-dependent cell death and that high level expression of CD43 may be used as a marker to define CD4(+) memory T cells. Expression of CD43 provides a novel mechanism by which tumor cells expressing abnormally high levels of CD43 may escape Fas-mediated killing.

Abstract
Abstract
The 8B4/20 Ag is a 120-kDa molecule whose expression on human thymocytes varies according to the differentiation stage: high density on immature CD3−/low thymocytes, reduced density on CD3medium and double-positive thymocytes, and absent on CD3high and single-positive thymocytes and on circulating T cells. In this paper we present immunological and biochemical evidence demonstrating that 8B4/20 Ag is a variant of CD43. We show that 8B4/20-expressing molecules, which are a subset of the CD43 molecules on thymocytes, are heterogeneous in charge, suggesting varying sialylation levels. The 8B4/20 epitope was mapped to the peripherally exposed N-terminal region of CD43, and the 8B4/20 antigenic determinant was characterized by requirement for the sialic acid exocyclic polyhydroxyl side chain, a feature shared with ligands of CD22. Altogether, 8B4/20-CD43 expression pattern and biochemical characteristics suggest its participation in carbohydrate-based interactions in the thymus. We therefore used specific Ab to mimic putative 8B4/20 interactions with natural ligand and examined the effect on isolated thymocytes. Treatment with 8B4/20 had no effect on in vitro apoptosis of isolated thymocytes. In contrast, 8B4/20 ligation enhanced the conversion of isolated thymocytes to differentiated phenotypes. Increased numbers were found in 8B4/20-treated cultures of CD3high and single-positive thymocytes and decreased numbers of CD3−/low and double-positive thymocytes, strongly suggesting that engagement of 8B4/20 delivers a positive signal that favors completion of the thymocyte maturation program. The ability of 8B4/20 mAb to drive thymocyte maturation in vitro suggests that CD43 molecules bearing the 8B4/20 epitope participate in early events of thymic selection.

Abstract
We confirm here the CD43 specificity of the CBF.78 monoclonal antibody (mAb) and compare its phenotypic and functional capacities to classical group-A mAbs (DFT1, MEM-59) and to 2 other CD43 mAbs (RDP/AD9, 161-46). It reacts with stable human CD43 transfectants in a sialic acid independent way and blocks completely cell binding of RDP/AD9 or 161-46 more or less but not DFT1 and MEM-59. Its distribution differs from all other CD43. B lymphocytes, but surprisingly the majority of granulocytes or monocytes are CBF.78 negative. CBF.78 is expressed on all T lymphocytes, but the number of CBF.78 molecules/cell is low and equally represented on resting T CD4 and CD8 cells. In comparison to naive T lymphocytes, CD45RO cells increase their CBF.78 epitopes much more than other CD43 epitopes. At a single cell level, confocal microscopy shows that CBF.78 can exist independently of other epitopes. CBF.78 is able to induce homotypic adhesion in different cell lines but not in peripheral blood lymphocytes and is unable to relocalise the targeted molecules. U937 cell line that is not agglutinated by CBF.78 (or RDP/AD9) undergoes a stronger adhesion with PMA, when this reagent is combined with this mAb. By itself CBF.78 is unable to activate T lymphocytes and to costimulate CD3 mAbs but partially blocks PMA. The phosphorylation of the tyrosine kinase p59fyn and p56lck, driven by CBF.78, is weak and almost blocked by PMA. Altogether these data support the hypothesis that there are at least 3 modes of interaction between PKC and CD43 pathways: each pathway is inhibitory towards the other but the CD43 one can also be synergistic.

Abstract
The sialomucin CD34 is a useful marker for hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells. However, the role of CD34 remains poorly understood. Here we investigate the functions of CD34 and another sialomucin CD43 coexpressed on hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells. Stimulation of undifferentiated hematopoietic KG1a cells with anti-CD34 or anti-CD43 induced homotypic cytoadhesion, accompanied by formation of a long-lived cap of CD34 and CD43 respectively, which colocalized with F-actin. Stimulation with either antibody specifically increased tyrosine phosphorylation of the identical set of proteins of Lyn, Syk, pp60, pp69, and pp77 at the capping site. These events were similar to those observed in monocytic U937 cells ectopically expressing CD34. After stimulation of KG1a cells, coimmunoprecipitation of Lyn with pp69 and pp77 and of Syk with pp37 was detected in the membrane fraction. Blockade of antibody-induced cap formation by treatment with cytochalasin D leads to inhibition of tyrosine phosphorylation of Syk and pp77 and homotypic cytoadhesion. Moreover, normal human CD34+ bone marrow cells showed cap formation of CD34 or CD43 after stimulation. These results suggest that crosslinking of either CD34 or CD43 activates the same signaling pathway for cytoadhesion through Lyn, Syk, and the novel tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins within hematopoiesis.

Abstract
Abstract
CD43/leukosialin is a major sialoglycoprotein of the dendritic cell (DC) surface, which can regulate cell adhesion and has the potential to mediate cell activation signals. Monocyte-derived DC transiently incubated with the anti-CD43 mAb, MEM-59, or with F(ab′)2 fragments, but not with monovalent Fab fragments or control IgG, 24 h later showed increased levels of membrane HLA-DR, CD54, CD40, CD80, CD86, and CD83. In parallel, CD43 cross-linking induced synthesis and release of IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α, IL-12, and IL-10. CD43 ligation inhibited the endocytic activity of DC, and enhanced the capacity of DC to stimulate T cell proliferation in the primary allogeneic and autologous MLR assay. In addition, anti-CD43-treated DC were less efficient at presenting native HIV-1 reverse transcriptase to a specific CD4+ T cell clone, whereas presentation of the reverse transcriptase 55–72 peptide to the same clone was increased. Finally, MEM-59 or its F(ab′)2 fragments elicited a rise in intracellular free calcium and tyrosine phosphorylation of a 25-kDa protein in DC. The results thus indicate that CD43 cross-linking with specific ligands induces activation and functional maturation of DC.

Abstract
AbstractThe sialomucin CD34 is a useful marker for hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells. However, the role of CD34 remains poorly understood. Here we investigate the functions of CD34 and another sialomucin CD43 coexpressed on hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells. Stimulation of undifferentiated hematopoietic KG1a cells with anti-CD34 or anti-CD43 induced homotypic cytoadhesion, accompanied by formation of a long-lived cap of CD34 and CD43 respectively, which colocalized with F-actin. Stimulation with either antibody specifically increased tyrosine phosphorylation of the identical set of proteins of Lyn, Syk, pp60, pp69, and pp77 at the capping site. These events were similar to those observed in monocytic U937 cells ectopically expressing CD34. After stimulation of KG1a cells, coimmunoprecipitation of Lyn with pp69 and pp77 and of Syk with pp37 was detected in the membrane fraction. Blockade of antibody-induced cap formation by treatment with cytochalasin D leads to inhibition of tyrosine phosphorylation of Syk and pp77 and homotypic cytoadhesion. Moreover, normal human CD34+ bone marrow cells showed cap formation of CD34 or CD43 after stimulation. These results suggest that crosslinking of either CD34 or CD43 activates the same signaling pathway for cytoadhesion through Lyn, Syk, and the novel tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins within hematopoiesis.

Abstract
Attachment of cells to extracellular matrix components is critical for the regulation of hematopoiesis. CD43 is a mucin-like transmembrane sialoglycoprotein expressed on the surface of almost all hematopoietic cells. A highly extended structure of extracellular mucin with negative charge may function as a repulsive barrier to hematopoietic cells. However, some investigators have shown that CD43 has proadhesive properties, and engagement of CD43 has been reported to upregulate integrin-mediated cell adhesion in T cells. We found that cross-linking of CD43 with monoclonal antibodies (MoAbs) enhanced integrin 4β1 (very late antigen [VLA]-4) and 5 β1 (VLA-5)-dependent adhesion of human cord blood CD34+ cells to fibronectin. CD34+ CD38hi, but not CD34+CD38−/low cells responded significantly to the stimulus, suggesting that committed, but not stem and more immature progenitors are sensitive to CD43-mediated activation of integrin. To elucidate the molecular mechanism leading to integrin activation, we used the growth factor-dependent cell line MO7e. Cross-linking of CD43 induced tyrosine phosphorylation of several intracellular molecules including the protein tyrosine kinase Syk, the proto-oncogene product Cbl, and phospholipase C (PLC)-γ2 in MO7e cells. Moreover, protein tyrosine kinase inhibitor herbimycin A and PLC inhibitor U73122 both blocked CD43-induced enhancement of adhesion to fibronectin. These results indicate that signals mediated through CD43 may increase integrin affinity to fibronectin via a pathway dependent on protein tyrosine kinase and PLC-γ activation in hematopoietic progenitors.

Abstract
Abstract
The regulation of T cell activation and adhesion by CD43 (leukosialin, sialophorin) has been thought to be mainly a function of the large size and negative charge of the extracellular domain of the protein. In this work, we demonstrate that the cytoplasmic tail is both necessary and sufficient for the negative regulatory effect of CD43 on cell-cell adhesion. Expression of mutant CD43 proteins in primary T cells from CD43-deficient mice demonstrated that the antiproliferative effect of CD43 is also dependent upon the cytoplasmic tail. In contrast, Ab-mediated costimulation through CD43 does not require the intracellular domain of CD43. These data demonstrate that CD43 primarily serves as a negative regulator of T cell activation and adhesion, and that this is mediated not exclusively by passive effects of the extracellular domain, but requires participation of the cytoplasmic tail, perhaps through interactions with the cytoskeleton, or alternatively, active regulation of intracellular signaling pathways.

Abstract
Abstract
Galectin-1 is an endogenous lectin expressed by thymic and lymph node stromal cells at sites of Ag presentation and T cell death during normal development. It is known to have immunomodulatory activity in vivo and can induce apoptosis in thymocytes and activated T cells (1–3). Here we demonstrate that galectin-1 stimulation cooperates with TCR engagement to induce apoptosis, but antagonizes TCR-induced IL-2 production and proliferation in a murine T cell hybridoma and freshly isolated mouse thymocytes, respectively. Although CD4+CD8+ double positive cells are the primary thymic subpopulation susceptible to galectin-1 treatment alone, concomitant CD3 engagement and galectin-1 stimulation broaden susceptible thymocyte subpopulations to include a subset of each CD4−CD8−, CD4+CD8+, CD4−CD8+, and CD4+CD8− subpopulations. Furthermore, CD3 engagement cooperates with suboptimal galectin-1 stimulation to enhance cell death in the CD4+CD8+ subpopulation. Galectin-1 stimulation is shown to synergize with TCR engagement to dramatically and specifically enhance extracellular signal-regulated kinase-2 (ERK-2) activation, though it does not uniformly enhance TCR-induced tyrosine phosphorylation. Unlike TCR-induced IL-2 production, TCR/galectin-1-induced apoptosis is not modulated by the expression of kinase inactive or constitutively activated Lck. These data support a role for galectin-1 as a potent modulator of TCR signals and functions and indicate that individual TCR-induced signals can be independently modulated to specifically affect distinct TCR functions.

Abstract
To initiate a specific immune response, lymphoid cells integrate a variety of signals generated through the orchestrated interaction of multiple cell surface molecules with their counter-receptors. As a result of the specific recognition of the antigen through antigen-specific receptors, and of the monitoring of their particular environment through the so-called coreceptor molecules, lymphoid cells go through elaborate processes of maturation and activation, contributing to the plasticity and sensitivity of immune response. CD43 is the major sialic acid rich protein on the surface of lymphocytes. However, the specific roles of this protein in different lymphoid cells under normal physiological conditions remain largely unknown. In this review we will mainly focus on the recent advances concerning the functions of this molecule as a coreceptor of different lymphoid cells as well as on the participation of this molecule in different pathologies.

Abstract
Abstract
CD43, a large highly glycosylated molecule, is arguably the most abundant molecule on the surface of T cells. Nevertheless, the function of CD43 remains unclear. Utilizing fluorescence microscopy, we find that CD43 is excluded from the T cell-APC contact site. This exclusion is Ag dependent since optimal CD43 exclusion requires Ag-pulsed APC, and since signaling through CD3, in the absence of any other receptor ligand interactions, can induce the modulation of CD43. These data suggest that CD43 may function as a barrier to nonspecific T cell-APC interactions that is removed as a result of T cell activation. Exclusion from the interaction site is a unique feature of CD43 and not universally found for all large highly glycosylated molecules since CD45 is not excluded. Thus, CD43 may represent a novel regulatory molecule on the T cell surface that can direct T cell interactions by changing its location on the cell surface.

Abstract
Chemokines as well as the signaling through the adhesion molecules intercellular adhesion molecule (ICAM)-3 and CD43 are able to induce in T lymphocytes their switching from a spherical to a polarized motile morphology, with the formation of a uropod at the rear of the cell. We investigated here the role of CD43 in the regulation of T-cell polarity, CD43-cytoskeletal interactions, and lymphocyte aggregation. Pro-activatory anti-CD43 monoclonal antibody (MoAb) induced polarization of T lymphocytes with redistribution of CD43 to the uropod and the CCR2 chemokine receptor to the leading edge of the cell. Immunofluorescence analysis showed that all three ezrin-radixin-moesin (ERM) actin-binding proteins localized in the uropod of both human T lymphoblasts stimulated with anti-CD43 MoAb and tumor-infiltrating T lymphocytes. Radixin localized at the uropod neck, whereas ezrin and moesin colocalized with CD43 in the uropod. Biochemical analyses showed that ezrin and moesin coimmunoprecipitated with CD43 in T lymphoblasts. Furthermore, in these cells, the CD43-associated moesin increased after stimulation through CD43. The interaction of moesin and ezrin with CD43 was specifically mediated by the cytoplasmic domain of CD43, as shown by precipitation of both ERM proteins with a GST-fusion protein containing the CD43 cytoplasmic tail. Videomicroscopy analysis of homotypic cell aggregation induced through CD43 showed that cellular uropods mediate cell-cell contacts and lymphocyte recruitment. Immunofluorescence microscopy performed in parallel showed that uropods enriched in CD43 and moesin localized at the cell-cell contact areas of cell aggregates. The polarization and homotypic cell aggregation induced through CD43 was prevented by butanedione monoxime, indicating the involvement of myosin cytoskeleton in these phenomena. Altogether, these data indicate that CD43 plays an important regulatory role in remodeling T-cell morphology, likely through its interaction with actin-binding proteins ezrin and moesin. In addition, the redistribution of CD43 to the uropod region of migrating lymphocytes and during the formation of cell aggregates together with the enhancing effect of anti-CD43 antibodies on lymphocyte cell recruitment suggest that CD43 plays a key role in the regulation of cell-cell interactions during lymphocyte traffic.

Abstract
CD43 (leukosialin) has hitherto been considered as an exclusive leukocyte marker, but now we report the expression of CD43 in the epithelial cells of all studied colorectal adenomas (21/21) and in about 50% (18/34) of adenocarcinomas as analyzed both at the mRNA and protein levels. Direct evidence showing the causal role of CD43 in colon tumorigenesis is lacking, but its involvement in leukocyte activation and impairment of apoptotic response suggests a role for CD43 in colon cancer development.

Abstract
The monoclonal antibody (mAb) J393 induces apoptosis in Jurkat T-cells. NH2-terminal amino acid sequence analysis identified the 140-kDa surface antigen for mAb J393 as CD43/leukosialin, the major sialoglycoprotein of leukocytes. While Jurkat cells co-expressed two discrete cell-surface isoforms of CD43, recognized by mAb J393 and mAb G10-2, respectively, only J393/CD43 signaled apoptosis. J393/CD43 was found to be hyposialylated, bearing predominantly O-linked monosaccharide glycans, whereas G10-2/CD43 bore complex sialylated tetra- and hexasaccharide chains. Treatment with soluble, bivalent mAb J393 killed 25-50% of the cell population, while concomitant engagement of either the CD3.TcR complex or the integrins CD18 and CD29 significantly potentiated this effect. Treatment of Jurkat cells with mAb J393 induced tyrosine phosphorylation of specific protein substrates that underwent hyperphosphorylation upon antigen receptor costimulation. Tyrosine kinase inhibition by herbimycin A diminished J393/CD43-mediated apoptosis, whereas inhibition of phosphotyrosine phosphatase activity by bis(maltolato)oxovanadium-IV enhanced cell death. Signal transduction through tyrosine kinase activation may lead to altered gene expression, as J393/CD43 ligation prompted decreases in the nuclear localization of the transcriptional regulatory protein NF-kappaB and proteins binding the interferon-inducible regulatory element. Since peripheral blood T-lymphocytes express cryptic epitopes for mAb J393, these findings demonstrate the existence of a tightly regulated CD43-mediated pathway for inducing apoptosis in human T-cell lineages.

Abstract
Resting T cells spontaneously adhere in a selective manner to potent accessory cells, such as dendritic cells (DC) and lymphoblastoid B blasts (LCL). Here we demonstrate that leukosialin (CD43) and major histocompatibility complex class I molecules (MHC-I) might play a critical role in this process. T cell conjugate formation with monocyte-derived DC (md-DC) and LCL could be strongly inhibited by either preincubating T cells with Fab fragments of CD43 monoclonal antibody (mAb) 6F5 or by preincubating md-DC or LCL with MHC-I mAb W6/32. Intact CD43 mAb 6F5, in contrast to monovalent Fab fragments, enhanced T cell adhesiveness by transactivating CD2 binding to CD58 molecules. Interestingly, induction of this proadhesive signal via CD43 with intact 6F5 mAb was found to revert mAb W6/32-mediated inhibition of T cell conjugate formation. These observations indicated that CD43 cross-linkage mimics and monovalent mAb 6F5 inhibits interaction of T cell CD43 with a stimulatory ligand on opposing cells, presumably MHC-I. For the demonstration of direct physical interaction between CD43 on T cells and MHC-I-coated beads it was necessary, however, to ligate CD2 on T cells with a stimulatory pair of CD2 mAbs (VIT13 plus TS2/18). This suggests that CD2 ligation crosswise upregulates CD43 binding avidity for MHC-I and that both adhesion molecule pairs (CD43/MHC-I and CD2/CD58) act in concert to induce and mediate T cell conjugate formation with certain cell types.

Abstract
CD43 is a major surface sialoprotein on hemopoietic cells, whose extracellular domain is heavily O-glycosylated. The functional role of CD43 in the hemopoietic system is not fully understood; however, it has been suggested that CD43 may have a role in cell-cell repulsion and in modifying T cell proliferation and activation. CD43 is expressed in immature B cells in the bone marrow, but not by peripheral B cells, except for B-1 B cells and plasma cells. To analyze the biological effect of CD43 in B-lineage cells, we transfected mouse CD43 cDNA into a CD43- B cell lymphoma, WEHI 231, and the growth and survival in culture were compared to those of a parental cell line, human CD8 transfectants, and CD43- revertants established from CD43+ clones. We observed that CD43 expression supported cell growth in culture upon serum reduction, whereas growth of CD43- cell lines was barely detected under this condition. CD43- cell lines accumulated in G1 phase of the cell cycle, and the numbers of viable cells were greatly reduced during culture upon serum depletion, whereas expression of CD43 reduced the susceptibility to G1 arrest and temporarily retarded the apoptotic process, which, in turn, resulted in an increase and maintenance of the number of viable cells in culture. The results suggest that CD43 may have some role in the survival and expansion of B-lineage cells. The biological effect of CD43 was initiated without stimulation by cross-linking and was significantly impaired by replacement of the extracellular domain by the human CD8 extracellular domain. The basis of these regulatory processes is discussed.

Abstract
CD43, the most abundant membrane protein of T lymphocytes, is able to initiate signal transduction pathways that lead to Ca2+ mobilization and interleukin-2 production, yet the molecular events involved in CD43's signal transduction pathway are poorly understood. In the present report we show that activation of both purified T lymphocytes and Jurkat cells, through CD43 cross-linking with the anti-CD43 L10 monoclonal antibody, induced CD43 association to Fyn kinase. This association is mediated by the Src homology 3 (SH3) domain of Fyn, since a glutathione S-transferase-Fyn SH3 fusion protein was able to precipitate CD43 from lysates of CD43-activated T cells. A synthetic peptide containing the SH3 binding sites of p85, located within the amino acid sequence 300ERQPAPALPPKPPKP314, was able to inhibit binding of CD43 to Fyn as well as to the glutathione S-transferase-Fyn SH3 fusion protein. We also provide evidence that upon CD43 cross-linking, Fyn is tyrosine-phosphorylated in a time-dependent manner. Our results suggest that CD43 cross-linking on the T cell surface induces the interaction between CD43 and Fyn, presumably through the Fyn SH3 domain and a putative SH3 binding site in CD43, leading to Fyn tyrosine phosphorylation and signal propagation.
