Therapeutic inhibition of FcγRIIb signaling targets leukemic stem cells in chronic myeloid leukemia. Leukemia 2020; 34:2635-2647. [PMID: 32684632 PMCID: PMC7515845 DOI: 10.1038/s41375-020-0977-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/16/2020] [Revised: 07/02/2020] [Accepted: 07/07/2020] [Indexed: 01/20/2023]
Abstract
Despite the successes achieved with molecular targeted inhibition of the oncogenic driver Bcr-Abl in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), the majority of patients still require lifelong tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy. This is primarily caused by resisting leukemic stem cells (LSCs), which prevent achievement of treatment-free remission in all patients. Here we describe the ITIM (immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibition motif)-containing Fc gamma receptor IIb (FcγRIIb, CD32b) for being critical in LSC resistance and show that targeting FcγRIIb downstream signaling, by using a Food and Drug Administration-approved BTK inhibitor, provides a successful therapeutic approach. First, we identified FcγRIIb upregulation in primary CML stem cells. FcγRIIb depletion caused reduced serial re-plaiting efficiency and cell proliferation in malignant cells. FcγRIIb targeting in both a transgenic and retroviral CML mouse model provided in vivo evidence for successful LSC reduction. Subsequently, we identified BTK as a main downstream mediator and targeting the Bcr-Abl-FcγRIIb-BTK axis in primary CML CD34+ cells using ibrutinib, in combination with standard TKI therapy, significantly increased apoptosis in quiescent CML stem cells thereby contributing to the eradication of LSCs.. As a potential curative therapeutic approach, we therefore suggest combining Bcr-Abl TKI therapy along with BTK inhibition.

Abstract
Neoplastic B cells from chronic lymphocytic leukemia patients (CLL) have a profound deficiency in the expression of p66Shc, an adaptor protein with pro-apoptotic and pro-oxidant activities. This defect results in leukemic B cell resistance to apoptosis and additionally impinges on the balance between chemokine receptors that control B cell homing to secondary lymphoid organs and the sphingosine phosphate receptor S1PR1 that controls their egress therefrom, thereby favoring leukemic B cell accumulation in the pro-survival lymphoid niche. Ablation of the gene encoding p66Shc in the Eµ-TCL1 mouse model of human CLL enhances leukemogenesis and promotes leukemic cell invasiveness in both nodal and extranodal organs, providing in vivo evidence of the pathogenic role of the p66Shc defect in CLL pathogenesis. Here we present an overview of the functions of p66Shc in B lymphocytes, with a specific focus on the multiple mechanisms exploited by p66Shc to control B cell trafficking and the abnormalities in this process caused by p66Shc deficiency in CLL.

Abstract
The disorder of B cells is one of the hallmarks of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). The activation state indicated by CD86 of B cells from SLE is well known, while the defect of regulatory B cells mediated by CD1d is also responsible for the process of SLE. In the present study, we focused on the relationship between B cell activation mediated by CD86 and B cell regulatory function mediated by CD1d. Our results showed that the level of CD1d in B cells was decreased during the early stages of B6.MRLlpr SLE mice and imiquimod-treated (IMQ-treated) mice, while the level of CD86 was significantly increased at the late stage. Moreover, the expression of CD1d showed a significantly negative correlation with CD86 level in B cells from IMQ-treated mice (r = -05741; P = 0.0022), B6.MRLlpr mice (r = -0.7091; P = 0.0268), and SLE patients (r = -0.4125; P = 0.0404). The in vivo and in vitro experiments with splenocytes demonstrated that CD1d signaling pathway could inhibit toll-like receptor 7 (TLR7)-induced CD86 expression of B cells. Further studies showed that this relationship also affected antibody production. Thus, our results confirmed the association of CD1d and CD86 levels in B cells from SLE, and demonstrated the importance to preserve the immunoregulatory function of B cells mediated by CD1d in the progression of SLE.

Abstract
The SH2 domain-containing inositol 5'-phosphatase (SHIP) plays a key role in preventing autoimmune phenomena by limiting antigen-mediated B cell activation. SHIP function is thought to require the dual engagement of the BCR and negative regulatory coreceptors as only the latter appear capable of recruiting SHIP from the cytosol to the plasma membrane by the virtue of phosphorylated immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motifs. Here, we demonstrate a coreceptor-independent membrane recruitment and function of SHIP in B cells. In the absence of coreceptor ligation, SHIP translocates to sites of BCR activation through a concerted action of the protein adaptor unit Dok-3/Grb2 and phosphorylated BCR signaling components. Our data reveal auto-inhibitory SHIP activation by the activated BCR and suggest an unexpected negative-regulatory capacity of immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motifs in Igα and Igβ.

Abstract
High-level leukemia cell expression of micro-RNA 155 (miR-155) is associated with more aggressive disease in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), including those cases with a low-level expression of ζ-chain-associated protein of 70 kD. CLL with high-level miR-155 expressed lower levels of Src homology-2 domain-containing inositol 5-phosphatase 1 and were more responsive to B-cell receptor (BCR) ligation than CLL with low-level miR-155. Transfection with miR-155 enhanced responsiveness to BCR ligation, whereas transfection with a miR-155 inhibitor had the opposite effect. CLL in lymphoid tissue expressed higher levels of miR155HG than CLL in the blood of the same patient. Also, isolated CD5(bright)CXCR4(dim) cells, representing CLL that had been newly released from the microenvironment, expressed higher levels of miR-155 and were more responsive to BCR ligation than isolated CD5(dim)CXCR4(bright) cells of the same patient. Treatment of CLL or normal B cells with CD40-ligand or B-cell-activating factor upregulated miR-155 and enhanced sensitivity to BCR ligation, effects that could be blocked by inhibitors to miR-155. This study demonstrates that the sensitivity to BCR ligation can be enhanced by high-level expression of miR-155, which in turn can be induced by crosstalk within the tissue microenvironment, potentially contributing to its association with adverse clinical outcome in patients with CLL.

Abstract
Fcγ receptor (FcγR) clustering on monocytes/macrophages results in phagocytosis and inflammatory cytokine production, which serve to eliminate antibody-opsonized targets and activate neighboring immune cells. Toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2), which recognizes a range of both bacterial and fungal components, elicits strong proinflammatory responses in these cells when stimulated by ligands, either natural or synthetic. Thus, we explored the possibility that TLR2 agonists could strengthen FcγR activity within the context of antibody therapy. Human peripheral blood monocytes treated with the TLR2 agonist Pam2CSK4 showed significantly enhanced FcγR-mediated cytokine production as well as phagocytic ability. An examination of the molecular mechanism behind this enhancement revealed increased expression of both FcγRIIa and the common γ subunit following Pam2CSK4 treatment. Interestingly however, expression of the inhibitory receptor FcγRIIb was also modestly increased. Further investigation revealed that Pam2CSK4 also dramatically decreased the expression of SHIP, the major mediator of FcγRIIb inhibitory activity. Using a murine Her2/neu solid tumor model of antibody therapy, we found that Pam2CSK4 significantly enhanced the ability of anti-Her2 antibody to reduce the rate of tumor growth. To verify that the FcγR enhancement was not unique to the diacylated Pam2CSK4, we also tested Pam3CSK4, a related triacylated TLR2 agonist. Results showed significant enhancement in FcγR function and expression. Taken together, these findings indicate that TLR2 activation can positively modulate FcγR and suggest that TLR2 agonists should be considered for testing as adjuvants for antitumor antibody therapy.

Abstract
The strength of the Ag receptor signal influences development and negative selection of B cells, and it might also affect B-cell survival and selection in the GC. Here, we have used mice with B-cell-specific deletion of the 5'-inositol phosphatase SHIP as a model to study affinity selection in cells that are hyperresponsive to Ag and cytokine receptor stimulation. In the absence of SHIP, B cells have lower thresholds for Ag- and interferon (IFN)-induced activation, resulting in augmented negative selection in the BM and enhanced B-cell maturation in the periphery. Despite a tendency to spontaneously downregulate surface IgM expression, SHIP deficiency does not alter anergy induction in response to soluble hen-egg lysozyme Ag in the MDA4 transgenic model. SHIP-deficient B cells spontaneously produce isotype-switched antibodies; however, they are poor responders in immunization and infection models. While SHIP-deficient B cells form GCs and undergo mutation, they are not properly selected for high-affinity antibodies. These results illustrate the importance of negative regulation of B-cell responses, as lower thresholds for B-cell activation promote survival of low affinity and deleterious receptors to the detriment of optimal Ab affinity maturation.

Abstract
CD4 functions to enhance the sensitivity of T cells to antigenic peptide/MHC class II. However, if aggregated in isolation, e.g. in the absence of T cell receptor (TCR), CD4 can transduce yet undefined signals that lead to T cell unresponsiveness to antigen and apoptosis. In Human Immunodeficiency Virus-1 (HIV-1) disease, CD4(+) T cell loss can result from gp120-induced CD4 signaling in uninfected cells. We show here that CD4 aggregation leads to Lck-dependent phosphorylation of the RasGAP adaptors Downstream of kinase-1/2 (Dok-1/2) and the inositol 5-phosphatase-1 (SHIP-1) and association of the two molecules. Studies using SHIP-1 shRNA, knockout mice and decoy inhibitors further indicate that CD4-mediated inhibition of TCR-mediated T cell activation is SHIP-1 and Dok-1/2 dependent, and involves SHIP-1 hydrolysis of Phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosophate (PI(3,4,5)P3) needed for TCR signaling. Our studies provide evidence for a novel mechanism by which ill-timed CD4-mediated signals activated by ligands such as HIV-1 gp120 lead to disarmament of the immune system.

Abstract
Insulin promotes the cardiovascular protective functions of the endothelium including NO production by endothelial NO synthase (eNOS), which it stimulates via Akt kinase which phosphorylates eNOS Ser1179. C-reactive protein (CRP) is an acute-phase reactant that is positively correlated with cardiovascular disease risk in patients with type 2 diabetes. We previously showed that CRP inhibits eNOS activation by insulin by blunting Ser1179 phosphorylation. We now elucidate the underlying molecular mechanisms. We first show in mice that CRP inhibits insulin-induced eNOS phosphorylation, indicating that these processes are operative in vivo. In endothelial cells we find that CRP attenuates insulin-induced Akt phosphorylation, and CRP antagonism of eNOS is negated by expression of constitutively active Akt; the inhibitory effect of CRP on Akt is also observed in vivo. A requirement for the IgG receptor FcgammaRIIB was demonstrated in vitro using blocking antibody, and reconstitution experiments with wild-type and mutant FcgammaRIIB in NIH3T3IR cells revealed that these processes require the ITIM (immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibition motif) of the receptor. Furthermore, we find that endothelium express SHIP-1 (Src homology 2 domain-containing inositol 5'-phosphatase 1), that CRP induces SHIP-1 stimulatory phosphorylation in endothelium in culture and in vivo, and that SHIP-1 knockdown by small interfering RNA prevents CRP antagonism of insulin-induced eNOS activation. Thus, CRP inhibits eNOS stimulation by insulin via FcgammaRIIB and its ITIM, SHIP-1 activation, and resulting blunted activation of Akt. These findings provide mechanistic linkage among CRP, impaired insulin signaling in endothelium, and greater cardiovascular disease risk in type 2 diabetes.

Abstract
Numerous autoimmune and inflammatory disorders stem from the dysregulation of hematopoietic cell activation. The activity of inositol lipid and protein tyrosine phosphatases, and the receptors that recruit them, is critical for prevention of these disorders. Balanced signaling by inhibitory and activating receptors is now recognized to be an important factor in tuning cell function and inflammatory potential. In this review, we provide an overview of current knowledge of membrane proximal events in signaling by inhibitory/regulatory receptors focusing on structural and functional characteristics of receptors and their effectors Src homology 2 (SH2) domain-containing tyrosine phosphatase 1 and SH2 domain-containing inositol 5-phosphatase-1. We review use of new strategies to identify novel regulatory receptors and effectors. Finally, we discuss complementary actions of paired inhibitory and activating receptors, using Fc gammaRIIA and Fc gammaRIIB regulation human basophil activation as a prototype.

Abstract
The humoral immune response requires antigen-specific B cell activation and subsequent terminal differentiation into plasma cells. Engagement of B cell antigen receptor (BCR) on mature B cells activates an intracellular signaling cascade, including calcium mobilization, which leads to cell proliferation and differentiation. Coengagement by immune complex of BCR with the inhibitory Fc receptor FcgammaRIIb, the only IgG receptor expressed on B cells, inhibits B cell activation signals through a negative feedback loop. We now describe antibodies that mimic the inhibitory effects of immune complex by high-affinity coengagement of FcgammaRIIb and the BCR coreceptor complex on human B cells. We engineered the Fc domain of an anti-CD19 antibody to generate variants with up to approximately 430-fold greater affinity to FcgammaRIIb. Relative to native IgG1, the FcgammaRIIb binding-enhanced (IIbE) variants strongly inhibited BCR-induced calcium mobilization and viability in primary human B cells. Inhibitory effects involved phosphorylation of SH2-containing inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase (SHIP), which is known to be involved in FcgammaRIIb-induced negative feedback of B cell activation by immune complex. Coengagement of BCR and FcgammaRIIb by IIbE variants also overcame the anti-apoptotic effects of BCR activation. The use of a single antibody to suppress B cell functions by coengagement of BCR and FcgammaRIIb may represent a novel approach in the treatment of B cell-mediated autoimmune diseases.

Abstract
Antibodies are secreted to recognize and in some cases directly neutralize pathogens. Another important means by which they are essential components of the immune system is through binding to Fc receptors. Effector responses triggered by antibody binding of Fc receptors affect a host of important cellular responses such as phagocytosis, inflammatory cytokine release, antigen presentation, and regulation of humoral responses. A crucial check on this antibody-mediated signal is through the inhibitory receptor, FcgammaRIIB. In this review we discuss how dysregulation of FcgammaRIIB can result in a lowered threshold for autoimmunity in mice and humans. We close with a discussion of the potential for applying these findings to immunotherapy.

Abstract
B cells respond to antigen stimulation with mobilization of the Ca(2+) second messenger in two phases operated by two distinct sets of effector proteins. First, an antigen receptor-specific Ca(2+) initiation complex is assembled, activated, and targeted to the plasma membrane to trigger the transient release of Ca(2+) from intracellular stores of the endoplasmic reticulum. Second, more ubiquitously expressed Ca(2+) channels of the plasma membrane are opened to allow for sustained Ca(2+) influx from the extracellular medium. Depending on the developmental stage of the B cell, the kinetics and profile of the two phases are adjusted at multiple levels of positive and negative regulation. A molecular basis for the Ca(2+) signaling plasticity is provided by cytosolic and transmembrane adapter proteins. They act as signal organizers, which control enzyme/substrate interactions by directing the different signaling modules into specific subcellular compartments. These arrangements orchestrate a graduated activation of Ca(2+)-sensitive downstream pathways, which ultimately determine appropriate cellular responses, namely elimination of autoreactive B cells or proliferation and differentiation of immunocompetent B cells into antibody-secreting plasma cells.

An encounter of B cells with cognate self Ags in the periphery can lead to anergy, a condition characterized by altered anatomical localization, shortened life span, and refractility to Ag stimulation. We recently reported that an immature B cell encounter with cognate self-Ag in the bone marrow can also lead to anergy. In this study we show that anergic as well as acutely Ag-stimulated immature B cells are defective in stromal cell-derived factor-1 (SDF-1)-induced calcium mobilization and migration and do not localize to bone marrow following adoptive transfer. This hyporesponsiveness does not involve CXCR4 modulation. However, BCR signal-mediated hyporesponsiveness to SDF-1 is associated with phosphorylation of the 5-inositol phosphatase SHIP1 and requires SHIP1 expression. Therefore, an encounter with cognate Ag may, by preventing SDF-1-induced phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-triphosphate accumulation, trigger premature emigration of immature B cells from bone marrow.

Abstract
The adaptor protein, downstream of tyrosine kinases-1 (Dok-1), and the phosphatase SHIP are both tyrosine phosphorylated in response to T cell stimulation. However, a function for these molecules in T cell development has not been defined. To clarify the role of Dok-1 and SHIP in T cell development in vivo, we compared the T cell phenotype of wild-type, Dok-1 knockout (KO), SHIP KO, and Dok-1/SHIP double-knockout (DKO) mice. Dok-1/SHIP DKO mice were runted and had a shorter life span compared with either Dok-1 KO or SHIP KO mice. Thymocyte numbers from Dok-1/SHIP DKO mice were reduced by 90%. Surface expression of both CD25 and CD69 was elevated on freshly isolated splenic CD4(+) T cells from SHIP KO and Dok-1/SHIP DKO, suggesting these cells were constitutively activated. However, these T cells did not proliferate or produce IL-2 after stimulation. Interestingly, the CD4(+) T cells from SHIP KO and Dok-1/SHIP DKO mice produced higher levels of TGF-beta, expressed Foxp3, and inhibited IL-2 production by CD3-stimulated CD4(+)CD25(-) T cells in vitro. These findings suggest Dok-1 and SHIP function in pathways that influence regulatory T cell development.

Abstract
Anaplastic large-cell lymphoma (ALCL) is frequently associated with the 2;5 translocation and expresses the NPM-ALK fusion protein, which possesses a constitutive tyrosine kinase activity. We analyzed SHP1 tyrosine phosphatase expression and activity in 3 ALK-positive ALCL cell lines (Karpas 299, Cost, and SU-DHL1) and in lymph node biopsies (n = 40). We found an inverse correlation between the level of NPM-ALK phosphorylation and SHP1 phosphatase activity. Pull-down and coimmunoprecipitation experiments demonstrated a SHP1/NPM-ALK association. Furthermore, confocal microscopy performed on ALCL cell lines and biopsy specimens showed the colocalization of the 2 proteins in cytoplasmic bodies containing Y664-phosphorylated NPM-ALK. Dephosphorylation of NPM-ALK by SHP1 demonstrated that NPM-ALK was a SHP1 substrate. Downregulation of SHP1 expression by RNAi in Karpas cells led to hyperphosphorylation of NPM-ALK, STAT3 activation, and increase in cell proliferation. Furthermore, SHP1 overexpression in 3T3 fibroblasts stably expressing NPM-ALK led to the decrease of NPM-ALK phosphorylation, lower cell proliferation, and tumor progression in nude mice. These findings show that SHP1 is a negative regulator of NPM-ALK signaling. The use of tissue microarrays revealed that 50% of ALK-positive ALCLs were positive for SHP1. Our results suggest that SHP1 could be a critical enzyme in ALCL biology and a potential therapeutic target.

Abstract
Proteins that bear immunoreceptor tyrosine based inhibitory motifs (ITIM) are believed to participate in the repression of cell activation via phosphatases such as SHP-1, SHP-2 and/or SHIP-1. CLECSF6, also called DCIR, is a transmembrane protein expressed on leukocytes and predominantly on neutrophils that bears one ITIM pattern. This feature confers to CLECSF6 a role in the repression of cell activation. In order to better understand its role in neutrophil signalling, we analysed the binding of phosphatases to the ITIM of CLECSF6. We showed that a peptide bearing the ITIM of CLECSF6 in its phosphorylated form associates with both SHP-1 and SHP-2. Phosphorylated SHP-1 binds the ITIM whereas phosphorylated SHP-2 does not. In addition, granulocyte macrophage-colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF) reduces the binding of SHP-2 to the ITIM of CLECSF6 while enhancing the phosphorylation level of SHP-2. GM-CSF is known to recruit SHP-2 to its receptor. These data suggest that the phosphorylation of SHP-2 by GM-CSF promotes the binding of SHP-2 to the GM-CSF receptor to the disadvantage of CLECSF6. Therefore, upon a treatment with GM-CSF, SHP-2 could move from a CLECSF6 associated signalosome with a repressor function to a GM-CSF receptor associated signalosome with an activator function.

Abstract
Mast cell-mediated responses are likely to be regulated by the cross talk between activatory and inhibitory signals. We have screened human cord blood mast cells for recently characterized inhibitory receptors expressed on NK cells. We found that IRp60, an Ig superfamily member, is expressed on human mast cells. On NK cells, IRp60 cross-linking leads to the inhibition of cytotoxic activity vs target cells in vitro. IRp60 is constitutively expressed on mast cells but is down-regulated in vitro by the eosinophil proteins major basic protein and eosinophil-derived neurotoxin. An immune complex-mediated cross-linking of IRp60 led to inhibition of IgE-induced degranulation and stem cell factor-mediated survival via a mechanism involving tyrosine phosphorylation, phosphatase recruitment, and termination of cellular calcium influx. To evaluate the role of IRp60 in regulation of allergic responses in vivo, a murine model of allergic peritonitis was used in which the murine homolog of IRp60, LMIR1, was neutralized in BALB/c mice by mAbs. This neutralization led to a significantly augmented release of inflammatory mediators and eosinophilic infiltration. These data demonstrate a novel pathway for the regulation of human mast cell function and allergic responses, indicating IRp60 as a candidate target for future treatment of allergic and mast cell-associated diseases.

Abstract
The activation threshold of cells in the immune system is often tuned by cell surface molecules. The Fc receptors expressed on various hematopoietic cells constitute critical elements for activating or downmodulating immune responses and combines humoral and cell-mediated immunity. Thus, Fc receptors are the intelligent sensors of the immune status in the individual. However, impaired regulation by Fc receptors will lead to unresponsiveness or hyperreactivity to foreign as well as self-antigens. Murine models for autoimmune disease indicate the indispensable roles of the inhibitory Fc receptor in the suppression of such disorders, whereas activating-type FcRs are crucial for the onset and exacerbation of the disease. The development of many autoimmune diseases in humans may be caused by impairment of the human Fc receptor regulatory system. This review is aimed at providing a current overview of the mechanism of Fc receptor-based immune regulation and the possible scenario of how autoimmune disease might result from their dysfunction.

Abstract
Identification of the mechanisms by which a T cell is able to sense ligands of varying strength, such as those that mediate tumor growth, viral evasion, and autoimmunity, is a major goal of T-cell activation studies. In recent years, parameters important for T-cell activation by strong ligands (agonists) are beginning to be characterized. Here, we review our current work on the factors that are critical for T-cell activation by ligands that differ in potency, typified by full agonists, weak agonists, partial agonists, and antagonists. Furthermore, we discuss mechanisms contributing to the lack of a full range of effector functions observed in T cells following their stimulation by suboptimal ligands. Finally, we present strategies for the design of peptide-based therapies to control activation of polyclonal, autoreactive T-cell populations.

Abstract
Mature B cells express a single immunoglobulin Fc receptor, FcgammaRIIB, that functions to block downstream signaling by co-aggregated antigen receptors. Co-aggregation of receptors is essential because BCR activated kinases must phosphorylate FcgammaRIIB to recruit SHIP and mediate inhibitory signals. Pre-B cells also express FcgammaRIIB, but since they do not yet express antigen receptor, it is unclear when they are activated physiologically. Here, we demonstrate that aggregation of the FcR on pre-B cells leads to potent inhibitory signaling. Aggregation of the FcR alone leads to downstream effects including the induction of cell death and the blockade of SDF-1 induced migration. The biochemical circuitry that mediates this response is unique because although SHIP is required for this signaling and is phosphorylated upon receptor aggregation, this occurs in the absence of FcgammaRIIB phosphorylation. Results indicate that immune complexes may inhibit B cell production in the bone marrow by antigen non-specific mechanisms.

Abstract
It has been established that amelioration of murine immune thrombocytopenia purpura (ITP) by IVIg is dependent on the inhibitory receptor FcgammaRIIB. Co-cross-linking of the FcgammaRIIB with the B-cell receptor complex or with FcepsilonRI in mast cells results in cell inhibition, which is mediated by recruitment of the inositol phosphatase SHIP1 to the cytoplasmic tail of the FcgammaR. The FcgammaRIIB can also associate with protein tyrosine phosphatase SHP-1 as a potential secondary target of the receptor. Alternatively, homoaggregation of FcgammaRIIB can induce a proapoptotic state in B cells that is dependent on the presence of Bruton tyrosine kinase (Btk), a kinase also expressed in monocytes. We sought to determine if these signaling pathways may direct IVIg-mediated FcgammaRIIB-dependent regulation of in vivo monocyte function in a murine model of ITP in which IVIg functions in an FcgammaRIIB-dependent manner. We demonstrate that mice deficient in SHIP1, SHP-1, and Btk respond to the ameliorating effects of IVIg with the same kinetics as control mice. We conclude that IVIgmediated inhibitory pathways operating via monocyte FcgammaRIIB may involve a transmembrane signaling pathway different from that of B cells.

Abstract
We present a hypothesis regarding the mode of induction of the inhibitory phosphatases SHP-1 and SHIP in hematopoietic cells. One mode is a general one in which the phosphatase regulates but does not abort signal transduction and biology. Regulator phosphatases are induced by directly or indirectly engaging the amino acid motifs present in the activating receptor, and act to control the biochemical and biological output. The other mode of induction is a specific one, which critically involves paired co-clustering of activating and inhibitory receptors. Phosphatases working in this way act only under conditions of paired co-clustering of activating and inhibitory receptors, and directly bind amino acid motifs present in the inhibitory receptor. However, this mode of induction is apparently more efficient, as cellular activation is completely aborted. This review presents several examples of each mode of inhibition and speculates on their mechanisms.

Abstract
Molecular mechanisms by which the Src homology 2 domain-containing inositol 5-phosphatase (SHIP) negatively regulates phagocytosis in macrophages are unclear. We addressed the issue using bone marrow-derived macrophages from FcgammaR- or SHIP-deficient mice. Phagocytic activities of macrophages from FcgammaRII(b)(-/-) and SHIP(-/-) mice were enhanced to a similar extent, relative to those from wild type. However, calcium influx was only marginally affected in FcgammaRII(b)(-/-), but greatly enhanced in SHIP(-/-) macrophages. Furthermore, SHIP was phosphorylated on tyrosine residues upon FcgammaR aggregation even in macrophages from FcgammaRII(b)(-/-) mice or upon clustering of a chimeric receptor containing CD8 and the immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif (ITAM)-bearing gamma-chain or human-restricted FcgammaRIIa. These findings indicate that, unlike B cells, SHIP is efficiently phosphorylated in the absence of an immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibition motif (ITIM)-bearing receptor. We further demonstrate that SHIP directly bound to phosphorylated peptides derived from FcgammaRIIa with a high affinity, comparable to that of FcgammaRII(b). Lastly, FcgammaRIIa-mediated phagocytosis was significantly enhanced in THP-1 cells overexpressing dominant-negative form of SHIP in the absence of FcgammaRII(b). These results indicate that SHIP negatively regulates FcgammaR-mediated phagocytosis through all ITAM-containing IgG receptors using a molecular mechanism distinct from that in B cells.

Abstract
The low-affinity receptor for IgG, Fc gamma RIIB, is expressed widely in the immune system and functions to attenuate Ag-induced immune responses. In mast cells, coaggregation of Fc gamma RIIB with the high-affinity IgE receptor, Fc epsilon RI, leads to inhibition of Ag-induced degranulation and cytokine production. Fc gamma RIIB inhibitory activity requires a conserved motif within the Fc gamma RIIB cytoplasmic domain termed the immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibition motif. When coaggregated with an activating receptor (e.g., Fc epsilon RI, B cell Ag receptor), Fc gamma RIIB is rapidly phosphorylated on tyrosine and recruits the SH2 domain-containing inositol 5-phosphatase (SHIP). However, the mechanisms by which SHIP mediates Fc gamma RIIB inhibitory function in mast cells remain poorly defined. In this report we demonstrate that Fc gamma RIIB coaggregation with Fc epsilon RI stimulates enhanced SHIP tyrosine phosphorylation and association with Shc and p62(dok). Concurrently, enhanced p62(dok) tyrosine phosphorylation and association with RasGAP are observed, suggesting that SHIP may mediate Fc gamma RIIB inhibitory function in mast cells via recruitment of p62(dok) and RasGAP. Supporting this hypothesis, recruitment of p62(dok) to Fc epsilon RI is sufficient to inhibit Fc epsilon RI-induced calcium mobilization and extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 activation. Interestingly, both the amino-terminal pleckstrin homology and phosphotyrosine binding domains and the carboxyl-terminal proline/tyrosine-rich region of p62(dok) can mediate inhibition, suggesting activation of parallel downstream signaling pathways that converge at extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 activation. Finally, studies using gene-ablated mice indicate that p62(dok) is dispensable for Fc gamma RIIB inhibitory signaling in mast cells. Taken together, these data suggest a role for p62(dok) as a mediator of Fc gamma RIIB inhibition of Fc epsilon RI signal transduction in mast cells.

Abstract
Many studies have shown that FcgammaRIIB is a negative regulator of B cell receptor signaling, and even though FcgammaRIIB is expressed through all developmental stages of the B cell lineage, its involvement in pre-B cell receptor (pre-BCR) signaling has not been examined. To investigate FcgammaRIIB function at the pre-B cell stage, we have established pre-BCR positive pre-B cell lines from normal mice and FcgammaRIIB-deficient mice, named PreBR and Fcgamma(-/-)PreBR, respectively. These cell lines are able to differentiate into immature B cells in vitro by removal of IL-7. In PreBR, apoptosis was moderately induced by F(ab')(2) anti-mu Ab, but not by intact anti-mu Ab. Phosphorylation of SH2-containing inositol 5-phosphatase (SHIP) and Dok, which are involved in FcgammaRIIB signaling, was induced by anti-mu cross-linking in PreBR. In contrast, apoptosis was strongly induced by both the F(ab')(2) and intact anti-mu Abs in Fcgamma(-/-)PreBR, and the level of phosphorylation of SHIP or Dok was much lower in Fcgamma(-/-)PreBR than those observed in PreBR. Restoration of FcgammaRIIB to Fcgamma(-/-)PreBR followed by anti-mu cross-linking blocked severe apoptosis, and up-regulated SHIP and Dok phosphorylation. The results demonstrate that FcgammaRIIB negatively regulates pre-BCR-mediated signaling for apoptosis.

Abstract
The mast cell function-associated Ag (MAFA) is a type II membrane glycoprotein originally found on the plasma membrane of rat mucosal-type mast cells (RBL-2H3 line). A C-type lectin domain and an immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motif (ITIM) are located in the extracellular and intracellular domains of MAFA, respectively. MAFA clustering has previously been shown to suppress the secretory response of these cells to the FcepsilonRI stimulus. Here we show that the tyrosine of the ITIM undergoes phosphorylation, on MAFA clustering, that is markedly enhanced on pervanadate treatment of the cells. Furthermore, the Src homology 3 domain of the protein tyrosine kinase Lyn binds directly to a peptide containing nonphosphorylated MAFA ITIM and PAAP motif. Results of both in vitro and in vivo experiments suggest that Lyn is probably responsible for this ITIM phosphorylation, which increases the Src homology domain 2 (SH2) affinity of Lyn for the peptide. In vitro measurements established that tyrosine-phosphorylated MAFA ITIM peptides also bind the SH2 domains of inositol 5'-phosphatase (SHIP) as well as protein tyrosine phosphatase-2. However, the former single domain is bound 8-fold stronger than both of the latter. Further support for the role of SHIP in the action of MAFA stems from in vivo experiments in which tyrosine-phosphorylated MAFA was found to bind primarily SHIP. In RBL-2H3 cells overexpressing wild-type SHIP, MAFA clustering causes markedly stronger inhibition of the secretory response than in control cells expressing normal SHIP levels or cells overexpressing either wild-type protein tyrosine phosphatase-2 or its dominant negative form. In contrast, on overexpression of the SH2 domain of SHIP, the inhibitory action of MAFA is essentially abolished. Taken together, these results suggest that SHIP is the primary enzyme responsible for mediating the inhibition by MAFA of RBL-2H3 cell response to the FcepsilonRI stimulus.

Abstract
The immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motif (ITIM) of human type IIb Fcgamma receptor (FcgammaRIIb) is phosphorylated on its tyrosine upon co-clustering with the B cell receptor (BCR). The phosphorylated ITIM (p-ITIM) binds to the SH2 domains of polyphosphoinositol 5-phosphatase (SHIP) and the tyrosine phosphatase, SHP-2. We investigated the involvement of the molecular complex composed of the phosphorylated SHIP and FcgammaRIIb in the activation of SHP-2. As a model compound, we synthesized a bisphosphopeptide, combining the sequences of p-ITIM and the N-terminal tyrosine phosphorylated motif of SHIP with a flexible spacer. This compound bound to the recombinant SH2 domains of SHP-2 with high affinity and activated the phosphatase in an in vitro assay. These data suggest that the phosphorylated FcgammaRII-SHIP complexes formed in the intact cells may also activate SHP-2. Grb2-associated binder 1 (Gab1) is a multisite docking protein, which becomes tyrosine-phosphorylated in response to various types of signaling, including BCR. In turn it binds to the SH2 domains of SHP-2, SHIP and the p85 subunit of phosphatidyl inositol 3-kinase (PtdIns3-K) and may regulate their activity. Gab1 is a potential substrate of SHP-2, thus its binding to FcgammaRIIb may modify the Gab1-bound signaling complex. We show here that Gab1 is part of the multiprotein complex assembled by FcgammaRIIb upon its co-clustering with BCR. Gab1 may recruit SH2 domain-containing molecules to the phosphorylated FcgammaRIIb. SHP-2, activated upon the binding to FcgammaRIIb-SHIP complex, partially dephosphorylates Gab1, resulting in the release of PtdIns3-K and ultimately in the inhibition of downstream activation pathways in BCR/FcgammaRIIb co-aggregated cells.

Abstract
FcgammaRIIB functions as an inhibitory receptor to dampen B cell Ag receptor signals and immune responses. Accumulating evidence indicates that ex vivo B cells require the inositol 5-phosphatase, Src homology domain 2-containing inositol 5-phosphatase (SHIP), for FcgammaRIIB-mediated inhibitory signaling. However, we report here that LPS-activated primary B cells do not require SHIP and thus differ from resting B cells. SHIP-deficient B cell blasts display efficient FcgammaRIIB-dependent inhibition of calcium mobilization as well as Akt and extracellular signal-related protein kinase phosphorylation. Surprisingly, FcgammaRIIB-dependent degradation of phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate and conversion into phosphatidylinositol 3,4-bisphosphate occur in SHIP-deficient B cell blasts, demonstrating the function of an additional inositol 5-phosphatase. Further analysis reveals that while resting cells express only SHIP, B cell blasts also express the recently described inositol 5-phosphatase, SHIP-2. Finally, data suggest that both SHIP-2 and SHIP can mediate downstream biologic consequences of FcgammaRIIB signaling, including inhibition of the proliferative response.

Abstract
The SH2-containing inositol 5'-phosphatase (SHIP) is tyrosine-phosphorylated in response to cytokines such as interleukin (IL)-3, granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor, and macrophage colony-stimulating factor. SHIP has been shown to modulate negatively these cytokine signalings; however, a potential role in IL-4 signaling remains uncharacterized. It has been recently shown that IL-4 induces tyrosine phosphorylation of SHIP, implicating the phosphatase in IL-4 processes. Tyrosine kinases, Jak1 and Jak3, involved in IL-4 signaling can associate with SHIP, yet only Jak1 can tyrosine-phosphorylate SHIP when co-expressed. In functional studies, cells overexpressing wild type SHIP are found to be hyperproliferative in response to IL-4 in comparison to parental cells. In contrast, cells expressing catalytically inactive form, SHIP(D672A), show reduced proliferation in response to IL-4. These changes in IL-4-induced proliferation correlate with alterations in phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-triphosphate levels. However, no differential activation of STAT6, Akt, IRS-2, or p70(S6k), in response to IL-4, was observed in these cells. These data suggest that the catalytic activity of SHIP acts in a novel manner to influence IL-4 signaling. In addition, these data support recent findings that suggest there are uncharacterized signaling pathways downstream of phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-triphosphate.
