Antigen-independent adhesion of CD4+ T lymphocytes to Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-transformed B cells is mediated by CD2/lymphocyte function-associated antigen (LFA)-3 and LFA-1/intracellular adhesion molecule (ICAM)-1. Although some anti-CD4 antibodies block the antigen-independent adhesion of CD4+ T lymphocytes, the CD4-HLA class II interaction does not appear to significantly contribute to the forces of cell adhesion since CD4+ T cells equally bind HLA class II+ and HLA class II- mutant B cells. In addition, conjugates formed between CD4+ T cells and HLA class II- B cells remain stable for at least 1 h while CD4+T/HLA class II+ B cell conjugate percentages promptly drop off. Down-regulation of CD4 or spontaneous low expression of CD4 also results in a persistance of conjugates formed with B cells. The role of the CD4-HLA class II interaction has been further studied by investigating the inhibitory effect of synthetic 12-mer peptides analogous to HLA class II and containing the Arg-Phe-Asp-Ser sequence conserved in the beta 1 domain. These peptides were previously found to inhibit HLA class II-restricted T cell responses, this sequence being thought to be involved in CD4-HLA class II interaction. These peptides block conjugate formation of CD4+ resting T cells or clones but not of CD8+ T cells, by interacting with the T cells as shown by preincubation experiments. Down-regulation of CD4 or spontaneous low expression results in the loss of the inhibitory activity. The peptide-mediated inhibition is neutralized by a soluble dimeric CD4 molecule. Alteration within the Arg-Phe-Asp-Ser sequence results in a significant loss of inhibition. It is thus proposed that the CD4-HLA class II interaction negatively regulates antigen-independent adhesion of T cells, this interaction involving the highly conserved Arg-Phe-Asp-Ser sequence in the HLA class II beta 1 sequence as a CD4-binding site.

D006681 HLA-D Antigens Human immune-response or Class II antigens found mainly, but not exclusively, on B-lymphocytes and produced from genes of the HLA-D locus. They are extremely polymorphic families of glycopeptides, each consisting of two chains, alpha and beta. This group of antigens includes the -DR, -DQ and -DP designations, of which HLA-DR is most studied; some of these glycoproteins are associated with certain diseases, possibly of immune etiology.
