Endogenous CD28 expressed on myeloma cells up-regulates interleukin-8 production: implications for multiple myeloma progression

Virginia Smith Shapiro, Marianne Newton Mollenauer, and Arthur Weiss

From the Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, and the Department of Medicine and Howard Hughes Medical Institute, University of California, San Francisco.

CD28 is the major costimulatory molecule on T cells. CD28 activation, in conjunction with T-cell receptor engagement, up-regulates transcription of several cytokines, including interleukin-2 (IL-2), through transcriptional activation of the RE/AP composite element. Although CD28 is not normally expressed on B cells or plasma cells, more than 90% of extramedullary myelomas (a late stage B-cell neoplasm) express CD28. The functional significance of this is unknown. The results of this study demonstrate that CD28 stimulates transcriptional activation of RE/AP-based reporters in B cells and myeloma cells. However, CD28 stimulation does not up-regulate IL-2 production in myeloma cell lines, demonstrating that the IL-2 promoter may not be a relevant RE/AP-containing target of CD28 in myelomas. Instead, an RE/AP composite element has been identified within the promoter of the IL-8 gene, a chemokine that promotes angiogenesis. Furthermore, stimulation of endogenous CD28 expressed by 3 myeloma cell lines increased IL-8 production. Therefore, the study demonstrates that CD28 is functional in myelomas to up-regulate transcription of endogenous genes, including IL-8. The proposal is made that aberrant expression of CD28 may play a role in the progression of multiple myeloma.
