Long-lived antibody-secreting plasma cells are formed in the
secondary lymphoid organs and subsequently home to the bone marrow, although the mechanisms that control this migration remain primarily unknown. In this study, we show that IgG plasma cells constitute a
significant fraction of cervical lymph node cells from older mice
deficient in both E- and P-selectin (E/P / ), and that
these cells can be prospectively isolated by phenotype. These IgG
plasma cells were polyclonal, cytoplasmic Ig+,
spontaneously secreted antibody, were in the
G0/G1 phase of the cell cycle, and failed to
express multiple B-cell surface markers. The plasma cells exhibited
up-regulated cell surface expression of multiple adhesion molecules,
including 4 and leukocyte function-associated antigen 1 (LFA-1) integrins, CD44, and P-selectin glycoprotein ligand 1 (PSGL-1). IgG plasma cells bound to vascular cell
adhesion molecule 1 (VCAM-1) significantly better than IgM+
B cells, indicating that the 4 integrins were
constitutively active. A subset of IgG plasma cells also bound
hyaluronic acid, the ligand for CD44. In addition, the IgG plasma cells
interacted strongly with E-selectin, but poorly with P-selectin,
despite elevated levels of PSGL-1 protein. The preferential interaction of plasma cells with E-selectin, but not P-selectin, correlated with elevated 1,3-fucosyltransferase-VII messenger RNA levels, but
selective down-regulation of core 2 1-6-N-glucosaminyltransferase levels, compared to B
cells. These results demonstrate a unique adhesion profile for murine
IgG plasma cells. Furthermore, the E/P / mice represent
a novel system to isolate and purify significant numbers of primary IgG
plasma cells.
