CD5 is a glycoprotein expressed at a high level on the surface of mature T lymphocytes. Studies with CD5 mAb and CD5-deficient mice have shown that the CD5 molecules have a significant role in T cell growth response. However, the precise role of CD5 in immune cell interactions is still unclear. The present study provides evidence that CD5 plays a direct role in providing growth signals during the contact-dependent activation and proliferation of splenic B cells. An anti-CD5 mAb inhibited Th1- and Th2-type cell-induced B cell proliferation. CD5-Ig, a chimeric fusion protein, induced proliferation of resting B cells. Flow cytometric analyses using CD5-Ig and mAb to CD72 demonstrated that CD5 bound to a ligand (CD5L), and this binding was not blocked by a variety of anti-CD72 mAb. Also, CD5-Ig did not bind to CD72+-transfected cells. Immunoprecipitation of surface labeled B cell molecules with CD5-Ig showed that CD5L was composed of 77-80 and 38-40 kDa polypeptide chains, distinct from CD72. CD5L was expressed on activated splenic B cells, but not T cells, whereas its expression was constitutive on peritoneal B cells and on B lymphoma cell lines.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007136 Immunoglobulins Multi-subunit proteins which function in IMMUNITY. They are produced by B LYMPHOCYTES from the IMMUNOGLOBULIN GENES. They are comprised of two heavy (IMMUNOGLOBULIN HEAVY CHAINS) and two light chains (IMMUNOGLOBULIN LIGHT CHAINS) with additional ancillary polypeptide chains depending on their isoforms. The variety of isoforms include monomeric or polymeric forms, and transmembrane forms (B-CELL ANTIGEN RECEPTORS) or secreted forms (ANTIBODIES). They are divided by the amino acid sequence of their heavy chains into five classes (IMMUNOGLOBULIN A; IMMUNOGLOBULIN D; IMMUNOGLOBULIN E; IMMUNOGLOBULIN G; IMMUNOGLOBULIN M) and various subclasses.

D008024 Ligands A molecule that binds to another molecule, used especially to refer to a small molecule that binds specifically to a larger molecule, e.g., an antigen binding to an antibody, a hormone or neurotransmitter binding to a receptor, or a substrate or allosteric effector binding to an enzyme. Ligands are also molecules that donate or accept a pair of electrons to form a coordinate covalent bond with the central metal atom of a coordination complex. (From Dorland, 27th ed) Ligand

D008213 Lymphocyte Activation Morphologic alteration of small B LYMPHOCYTES or T LYMPHOCYTES in culture into large blast-like cells able to synthesize DNA and RNA and to divide mitotically. It is induced by INTERLEUKINS; MITOGENS such as PHYTOHEMAGGLUTININS, and by specific ANTIGENS. It may also occur in vivo as in GRAFT REJECTION.
