Recently we reported that the down-regulation of CD99 (Mic2)
is a primary requirement for the generation of Hodgkin's and Reed-Sternberg (H-RS) cells seen in Hodgkin's disease. In
this study, we provide evidence that the down-regulation of CD99 is induced by high expression of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) latent membrane
protein 1 (LMP-1), which is highly expressed in H-RS cells of
EBV-associated Hodgkin's disease. To investigate the effect of LMP-1
on the expression of CD99 in vitro, we established a stable cell line
by transfecting an SV40-early promoter driven-LMP-1 expression
construct into a neoplastic lymphoblastoid B cell line, IM9, in which
the level of endogenous LMP-1 expression is almost negligible. In this
cell line, the overexpression of LMP-1 led to the down-regulation of
CD99 and the acquisition of morphological and functional
characteristics of H-RS cells indistinguishable from those in lymph
nodes of Hodgkin's disease patients and in CD99-deficient B cells. In
addition, induced LMP-1 expression in an EBV-negative B cell clone,
BJAB, directly caused the down-regulation of surface CD99 expression.
Northern and Western analysis data, showing that overexpression of
LMP-1 negatively influenced the expression of CD99, were supported by
experiments in which a CD99 promoter-driven luciferase promoter
reporter construct transfected into 293T cells was down-regulated when
LMP-1 was coexpressed. Therefore, our data strongly suggest that the
EBV LMP-1 protein plays a pivotal role in the down-regulation of CD99
via transcriptional regulation, which leads to the generation of the
H-RS cells. (Blood. 2000;95:294-300)
