Previously, we demonstrated that B-chronic lymphocytic leukemia
(B-CLL) cells could be divided into 2 groups depending on the
expression of CD38 by the malignant cells. The 2 groups differed in
their signal-transducing capacities initiated by cross-linking of
surface IgM; only in CD38-positive cells was an efficient signal delivered, invariably resulting in cell apoptosis. In this study, we
investigated the effect of surface IgD cross-linking in 10 patients
with CD38-positive B-CLL. Exposure of the malignant cells to goat
antihuman -chain antibodies (Ga -ab) caused
[Ca++]i mobilization and tyrosine kinase
phosphorylation in a manner not different from that observed after goat
antihuman µ-chain antibody (Gaµ-ab) treatment in vitro. However,
Ga -ab-treated cells failed to undergo apoptosis and instead
displayed prolonged survival in culture and differentiated into plasma
cells when rIL2 was concomitantly present. Cross-linking of surface IgD
failed to induce proliferation of the malignant cells in vitro.
Moreover, treatment with Ga -ab did not prevent apoptosis of B-CLL
cells induced by Gaµ-ab. Collectively, these experiments demonstrated that IgM and IgD expressed by the same cell may deliver opposite signals under particular circumstances and provide some clues for the
understanding of the pathophysiology of B-CLL.
