CD40 is a member of the TNF receptor family that was first characterized as an important T-B cell interaction molecule. This receptor is also expressed on many other cell types, including normal basal epithelium, carcinomas, and transformed cell lines. The functions of CD40 in non-B cells are largely unknown. Our studies demonstrate that CD40 mediates nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kappa B) mobilization and IL-6 production in nonhematopoietic cells. Stimulation of the transformed fibroblast cell line SV80 with CD40 ligand (CD40L) or anti- CD40 Ab resulted in the production of IL-6; this could be increased by IFN-gamma pretreatment, which is known to up-regulate CD40 expression. Studies with transfectants overexpressing CD40 demonstrated that activation of CD40 alone is sufficient to induce IL-6 production. The transcription factor NF-kappa B appears to play a central role in CD40- mediated activation of the IL-6 gene; NF-kappa B mobilization directly preceded CD40-mediated IL-6 production, and suppression of NF-kappa B mobilization with the metabolic inhibitor D609 also suppressed the IL-6 response. A striking similarity to the requirements for TNF-induced IL- 6 production, which is mediated by the p55TNF receptor in SV80 cells, was observed. In view of the intracellular homologies between CD40 and the p55TNF receptor, it should be considered that the two receptors share common components in their signaling pathways that lead to IL-6 production.
