SJL mice are known for their poor IgE production upon helminth
infection. In this study, we have demonstrated that SJL standard B
cells (85% IgM+ or B220+), prepared by
complement-mediated T cell lysis, failed to proliferate and to produce
IgE and IgG1 in response to LPS plus IL-4 in vitro. This diminished IgE
production was restored by anti-IL-12 and enhanced by additional
treatment with anti-IL-18, suggesting active suppression by the
cells that produce IL-12 and IL-18. Indeed, SJL standard B cells were
contaminated with Mac-1+ cells. Therefore, we removed
macrophages by passing standard B cells through a Sephadex G-10 column
(G10). Resultant cells (95% IgM+), designated as G10-B
cells, responded to LPS and IL-4 by their proliferation and
differentiation. G-10 treatment markedly diminished the proportion of
B220- cells and Mac-1+ cells in SJL standard B
cells. Furthermore, addition of SJL B220- cells dose
dependently and MHC independently inhibited LPS plus IL-4-induced B
cell growth and IgE production in SJL and BALB/c B cells.
B220- cells in SJL standard B cells contained
Mac-1+ cells (51%) and Fas ligand+
CD4-CD8- double-negative
CD3intIL-2Rß+ T cells (26%). Thus, IL-12 and
IL-18 produced by LPS-stimulated Mac-1+ cells stimulate
this unique subpopulation of T cells to produce IFN-
, which in
combination with Fas ligand, inhibits IgE production from the B cells.
Our present results indicate that Mac-1+ cells and
double-negative CD3intIL-2Rß+ T cells,
uniquely abundant in the spleens of SJL mice, inhibit IgE production,
indicating their new role in IgE response.
