The surface and cytoplasmic expressions of the transducing chain (IFN-{gamma}R2) of the heterodimeric IFN-{gamma} receptor on human T lymphocytes have been investigated. We show that its surface expression is low, whereas high cytoplasmic levels are found in both resting and PHA-activated T lymphocytes. This low expression does not prevent activated T cells from responding to IFN-{gamma}, because it induces IFN-regulatory factor 1 expression. Low surface IFN-{gamma}R2 expression appears to be due to recycling between cytoplasmic stores and the cell surface, which does not depend on signals mediated by endogenous IFN-{gamma}, because IFN-{gamma}R2 surface expression is low, and its internalization is equally observed in patients with inherited IFN-{gamma}R1 gene deficiency and in healthy donors. Moreover, IFN-{gamma}R2 internalization in T lymphoblasts from healthy donors was not affected by the presence of anti-IFN-{gamma}-neutralizing or anti-IFN-{gamma}R1-blocking mAb. In conclusion, these data illustrate a new mechanism whereby human T cells limit the surface expression of IFN-{gamma}R2 in a ligand-independent manner.
