Fc{gamma}RIIB are low-affinity receptors for IgG whose intracytoplasmic domain contains an immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibition motif (ITIM). Fc{gamma}RIIB inhibit cell activation triggered by receptors that signal via immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motifs. This inhibition requires ITIM tyrosyl phosphorylation and is correlated with the binding of SH2 domain-containing phosphatases that may mediate the inhibitory signal. In the present work, we investigated the mechanism of Fc{gamma}RIIB phosphorylation and its consequences in mast cells. We demonstrate that the phosphorylation of Fc{gamma}RIIB requires coaggregation with Fc{epsilon}RI and that, once phosphorylated, Fc{gamma}RIIB selectively recruit the inositol polyphosphate 5 phosphatase SHIP, in vivo. In vitro, however, the phosphorylated Fc{gamma}RIIB ITIM binds not only SHIP, but also the two protein tyrosine phosphatases, SHP-1 and SHP-2. We show that the coaggregation of Fc{gamma}RIIB with Fc{epsilon}RI does not prevent Fc{epsilon}RI-mediated activation of lyn and syk. Both kinases can phosphorylate Fc{gamma}RIIB in vitro. However, when coaggregated with Fc{epsilon}RI, Fc{gamma}RIIB was in vivo phosphorylated in syk-deficient mast cells, but not in lyn-deficient mast cells. When Fc{epsilon}RI are coaggregated with Fc{gamma}RIIB by immune complexes, Fc{epsilon}RI-associated lyn may thus phosphorylate Fc{gamma}RIIB. By this mechanism, Fc{epsilon}RI initiate ITIM-dependent inhibition of intracellular propagation of their own signals.

Receptors for the Fc portion of IgG expressed by mouse B cells, Fc{gamma}RIIB, have long been known to inhibit B cell activation when coaggregated with BCR3 by immune complexes (1, 2). Fc{gamma}RIIB are single-chain low-affinity IgG receptors (3, 4, 5) encoded by a single gene in which a separate exon encodes the transmembrane domain and three other exons the intracytoplasmic (IC) domain (6). This enables three membrane isoforms to be generated by alternative splicing of corresponding sequences. Fc{gamma}RIIB1 retain sequences encoded by all four exons; Fc{gamma}RIIB2 lack sequences encoded by the first IC exon; Fc{gamma}RIIB1' are generated by the use of a cryptic splice donor site located in the murine first IC exon (7). Mouse B cells express Fc{gamma}RIIB1 (8) and Fc{gamma}RIIB1' (7). A 13-amino acid IC sequence containing a tyrosine residue, followed by a leucine at position +3, was found to be necessary (9) and sufficient (10) for inhibition. This sequence, present in all three murine Fc{gamma}RIIB isoforms (7, 9), is conserved in the two human Fc{gamma}RIIB isoforms, Fc{gamma}RIIB1 and Fc{gamma}RIIB2, and both human isoforms were reported to inhibit mouse (11) and human (12) B cell activation. Fc{gamma}RIIB were subsequently shown to negatively regulate not only BCR-mediated B cell activation, but also TCR-mediated T cell activation (13) and high-affinity IgE receptor (Fc{epsilon}RI)-mediated mast cell activation (14). Fc{gamma}RIIB also inhibited cell activation by chimeric molecules whose IC domain consisted of that of the Ig{alpha} (10), TCR-{zeta}, or FcR{gamma} (13) transduction subunits, providing evidence that Fc{gamma}RIIB functions as a general negative coreceptor for all receptors containing an immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif (ITAM). The same sequence was found to account for the regulatory effects of Fc{gamma}RIIB on cell activation by the three ITAM-containing immunoreceptors, and mutation of the tyrosine residue was sufficient to abrogate inhibition (10, 13).

Because the YxxL motif present in this sequence was reminiscent of the double YxxL motif constitutive of ITAMs, this sequence was referred to as an immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibition motif (ITIM), and occurrence of ITIMs was searched for in other negative coreceptors. ITIMs were found in the IC domain of human (15) and murine (16) killer cell inhibitory receptors (KIRs), which inhibit the cytotoxic activity of NK cells when they bind to MHC class I molecules on target cells (17); in the IC domain of CD22 (18) and of CTLA-4 (19), expressed on B and T cells, respectively, and which inhibit B cell (20) and T cell activation (21); in the IC domain of gp49B1 (22) and MAFA (23), expressed on mast cells, and which inhibit IgE-induced mediator release (24, 25); and in the IC domain of ILT3, expressed on monocytes and dendritic cells, and which can inhibit the activation of these cells (26).

One general property of ITIMs is their tyrosine phosphorylation and recruitment of SH2 domain-bearing phosphatases. Fc{gamma}RIIB was shown to be phosphorylated both in B cells (10) and in mast cells (27, 28). Fc{gamma}RIIB was reported to recruit the tyrosine phosphatase SHP-1 in B cells (29), and the inositol phosphatase SHIP in both B cells (27, 30, 31) and mast cells (27, 28). In the present work, we devised an experimental model to study the mechanism of inhibition of mast cell activation by Fc{gamma}RIIB. We show that the coaggregation of Fc{epsilon}RI with Fc{gamma}RIIB not only does not inhibit the activation of protein tyrosine kinases (PTK) associated with Fc{epsilon}RI, but enables one of these kinases, lyn, to phosphorylate Fc{gamma}RIIB ITIM. Phosphorylated Fc{gamma}RIIB then selectively recruit SHIP. We propose a model according to which Fc{epsilon}RI contribute to the extinction of the intracellular propagation of their own signals.

Cells

RBL-2H3 cells (32) were cultured in DMEM supplemented with 10% FCS, 100 IU/ml penicillin, and 100 µg/ml streptomycin. Only adherent cells, recovered with trypsin-EDTA, were used. All culture reagents were from Life Technologies (Paisley, Scotland, U.K.). Previously described cDNAs encoding murine Fc{gamma}RIIB1, Fc{gamma}RIIB1', Fc{gamma}RIIB2, and Fc{gamma}RIIB(IC1) (7, 33) were inserted into an expression vector under the control of the SR{alpha} promoter in pBR322 (34) and in which a resistance gene to zeocin was introduced (NT-zeo). Transfectants were selected by culture with 500 µg/ml of zeocin (Cayla, Toulouse, France). RBL transfectants recovered after selection were cloned with steel cylinders, as described (33). The expression of recombinant receptors by cloned cells was assessed by indirect immunofluorescence. The expression of recombinant receptors on clones remained stable over the duration of experiments. Several clones of each transfectant expressing comparable amounts of recombinant receptors were selected and used for experiments. They gave similar results. Transfectants expressing Fc{gamma}RIIB2(Y26G) were previously described (35).

Mast cells were derived by culturing fetal liver cells from wild-type and syk-deficient 16.5-day embryos in culture medium supplemented with 10% WEHI 3B-conditioned medium, as previously described (36). Bone marrow-derived mast cells (BMMC) were obtained by culturing bone marrow cells from wild-type and lyn-deficient mice under the same conditions. After 4 wk, the cultures were found to contain more than 90% mast cells, as assessed by microscopic examination. Based on indirect immunofluorescence, all cells expressed Fc{epsilon}RI and Fc{gamma}RIIB, and the deficient cells expressed comparable levels of both receptors as wild-type counterpart cells.

Abs and immunoadsorbents

The mouse IgE mAb 2682-I was used as culture supernatant of a subclone of DNP-H1-{epsilon}-26 hybridoma cells (37). The rat anti-mouse Fc{gamma}RIIB 2.4G2 mAb (38) was purified by affinity chromatography on protein G-Sepharose (Pharmacia, Uppsala, Sweden) from ascitic fluid of nude mice inoculated with 2.4G2 hybridoma cells i.p. F(ab')2 fragments were obtained by pepsin digestion for 48 h. The purity of IgG and F(ab')2 fragments was assessed by SDS-PAGE analysis. F(ab')2 fragments of polyclonal mouse anti-rat Ig (MAR), and F(ab')2 fragments and intact IgG of polyclonal rabbit anti-mouse Ig (RAM) were purchased from Jackson ImmunoResearch Laboratories (West Grove, PA). MAR F(ab')2 were trinitrophenylated by incubation for 2 h at room temperature with trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid (Eastman Kodak, Rochester, NY) in borate-buffered saline, pH 8. TNP10-MAR F(ab')2 obtained were purified on Sephadex G25 (Pharmacia). Rabbit Abs against recombinant extracellular domains of mouse Fc{gamma}RIIB (39) were gifts from Dr. Catherine Sautès (Institut Curie, Paris, France). Horseradish peroxidase-conjugated anti-phosphotyrosine (PY) mouse mAbs PY-20 were purchased from Chemicon (Temecula, CA). Mouse monoclonal anti-SHP-1 and anti-SHP-2 Abs were purchased from Transduction Laboratories (Lexington, KY). Rabbit anti-SHIP Abs were a gift from Dr. Gerald Krystal (University of British Columbia, Vancouver, Canada). Rabbit Abs against FcR{gamma} were a gift from Dr. Jean-Pierre Kinet (Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA). Rabbit anti-lyn Abs used for immunoprecipitation were purchased from Upstate Biotechnology (Lake Placid, NY), and mouse anti-lyn Abs used for Western blotting were purchased from Transduction Laboratories. Rabbit anti-syk Abs used for immunoprecipitation were gifts from Dr. Ulrich Blank (Institut Pasteur, Paris, France), and rabbit anti-syk Abs used for Western blotting were purchased from Santa Cruz Biotechnologies (Santa Cruz, CA). Horseradish peroxidase-conjugated polyclonal goat anti-mouse (GAM) Ig Abs and polyclonal goat anti-rabbit (GAR) Ig Abs were purchased from Santa Cruz Biotechnologies.

Protein G-Sepharose (50 µl beads diluted 1/2) was used to precipitate 2.4G2-bound Fc{gamma}RIIB. Synthetic nonphosphorylated or tyrosine-phosphorylated peptides with the Fc{gamma}RIIB ITIM sequence EAENTIT(p)YSLLKH were purchased from Macromolecular Resources (Fort Collins, CO). They were coupled to CNBr-activated Sepharose beads (Pharmacia) at 1 mg/ml. Anti-FcR{gamma}, anti-lyn, and anti-syk Abs were adsorbed onto protein A-Sepharose (Sigma Chemical Co., St. Louis, MO) (5 µl serum or 5 µg purified Abs/50 µl beads diluted 1/2) by an overnight incubation at 4°C. Washed beads were used as immunoadsorbents to precipitate Fc{epsilon}RI complexes, lyn or syk.

GST fusion proteins

cDNA encoding the IC domain of Fc{gamma}RIIB1' (ICIIB1') was generated by PCR and inserted in the pGEX-4T-2 vertor (Pharmacia). The sequence was determined on the two strands by dideoxynucleotide sequencing. GST-ICIIB1' was produced in DH5-{alpha} bacteria by isopropylthiogalactopyranoside induction, purified on glutathione agarose (Sigma Chemical Co.), and analyzed by SDS-PAGE. Soluble GST-ICIIB1' was obtained by incubating the beads with 50 mM Tris, 25 mM glutathione, pH 8. GST-HS1 was a gift from Dr. Ulrich Blank. GST-p62 (amino acids 331–443 of the mouse GTPase-activating protein-associated p62) was purchased from Santa Cruz Biotechnologies.

Serotonin release and assay

Transfected RBL cells, resuspended in RPMI medium supplemented with 10% FCS (RPMI-FCS) at 1 x 106 cells/ml, were incubated at 37°C for 1 h with 2 µCi/ml [3H]serotonin (Amersham, Les Ulis, France), washed, resuspended in RPMI-FCS, incubated for another hour at 37°C to remove excess [3H]serotonin, washed again, resuspended in the same medium, distributed in 96-well microculture plates at 2 x 105 cells/well, and incubated for 1 h at 37°C with IgE and 2.4G2 F(ab')2 or not in a final volume of 50 µl. Adherent cells were washed four times with 200 µl HBSS; 25 µl culture medium was added to each well and cells were warmed at 37°C for 15 min before challenge. Cells were challenged for 30 min at 37°C with 25 µl TNP-MAR F(ab')2 or RAM F(ab')2 or intact RAM IgG, previously warmed at 37°C for 15 min. Reactions were stopped by adding 50 µl ice-cold medium and by placing plates on ice. Fifty microliters of supernatants were mixed with two hundred microliters of Aqualuma-Plus scintillation fluid (Lumac, The Netherlands) and counted in a beta plate counter (Pharmacia). The percentage of [3H]serotonin release was calculated, using as 100% cpm in 50 µl harvested from wells containing the same number of cells that were lysed in 100 µl of 0.5% SDS and 0.5% Nonidet P-40.

Measurement of intracellular Ca2+ concentration

Transfected RBL cells were resuspended at 1 x 106 cells/ml in IMDM containing 5% FBS, 5 µM Indo-1 AM (Molecular Probes, Eugene, OR), and IgE, incubated for 1 h at 37°C, and washed twice. Cells were resuspended in IMDM containing 5% FBS and stimulated at 1 x 106 cells/ml/sample with either 10 µg/ml RAM F(ab')2 or 15 µg/ml intact RAM IgG. Intracellular Ca2+ was monitored for 15 min using a flow cytometer (model 50H; Ortho Diagnostic Systems, Raritan, NJ). The percentage of cells responding was calculated using the data acquisition system ACQ-CYTE and MTIME software (Phoenix Flow Systems, Phoenix, AZ).

[35S]methionine labeling

RBL cells were washed twice in methionine-free DMEM (Sigma Chemical Co.), resuspended at 1 x 106 cells/ml in methionine-free DMEM supplemented with 5% dialyzed FBS, and incubated for 4 h with 0.5 mCi/sample of [35S]methionine (DuPont NEN, Wilmington, DE) at 37°C. Cells were washed twice in PBS and lysed, as described below.

Immunoprecipitation and Western blot analysis

Transfected RBL cells, resuspended at 5 x 106/ml, were incubated for 1 h at 37°C with IgE anti-DNP (culture supernatant diluted 1/10) and 2.4G2 F(ab')2 (3 µg/ml) in complete culture medium, washed three times, resuspended in the same medium at 107 cells/ml, and challenged for 2 min or for the indicated periods of time at 37°C with 10 µg/ml or indicated concentrations of TNP-MAR F(ab')2. They were centrifuged, and pellets containing 107 cells for Fc{gamma}RIIB immunoprecipitation or 3 x 107 cells for Fc{epsilon}RI immunoprecipitation were lysed for 10 min at 0°C at 2 x 108 cells/ml in lysis buffer containing 10 mM Tris, pH 7.4, 150 mM NaCl, 1% Nonidet P-40, 1 mM Na3VO4, 5 mM NaF, 5 mM sodium pyrophosphate, 0.4 mM EDTA, 10 µg/ml aprotinin, 10 µg/ml leupeptin, 10 µg/ml pepstatin, and 1 mM PMSF. Lysates were centrifuged at 10,000 rpm for 10 min at 4°C, and supernatants were incubated with protein G-Sepharose for 30 min at 4°C or with anti-FcR{gamma}-bound protein A-Sepharose for 1 h at 4°C. Immunoadsorbents were washed three times in 1 ml lysis buffer and boiled for 3 min in reducing sample buffer. Eluted material was submitted to SDS-PAGE and transferred onto Immobilon-P membranes (Millipore, Bedford, MA). Membranes were saturated with either 5% BSA or 5% skimmed milk (Régilait, Saint-Martin-Belle-Roche, France) diluted in a buffer containing 10 mM Tris, 150 mM NaCl, pH 7.4, and 0.5% Tween-20 (Merk, Schuchardt, Germany) (Western buffer), and blotted with appropriate dilutions of either horseradish peroxidase-conjugated anti-PY Abs or anti-Fc{gamma}RIIB, anti-SHP-1, anti-SHP-2, and anti-SHIP Abs, followed by horseradish peroxidase-conjugated GAR or GAM IgG. Peroxidase-labeled Abs were detected using the Amersham enhanced chemoluminescence kit.

Immunoprecipitation and in vitro kinase assay

RBL cells or transfectants sensitized with IgE anti-DNP and 2.4G2 F(ab')2 were washed three times, resuspended at 107 cells/ml, and challenged for 2 min at 37°C with 10 µg/ml TNP-MAR F(ab')2 or 1 µg/ml DNP-BSA. Pellets containing 107 cells for anti-lyn and anti-syk immunoprecipitations or 3 x 107 cells for anti FcR{gamma} immunoprecipitation were lysed for 10 min at 0°C at 2 x 108 cells/ml in TNE buffer containing 50 mM Tris, pH 8, 1% Nonidet P-40, 20 mM EDTA, 10 µg/ml aprotinin, 10 µg/ml leupeptin, 1 mM PMSF, and 1 mM Na3VO4. Lysates were centrifuged at 10,000 rpm for 10 min at 4°C, and incubated for 1 h at 4°C with protein A-Sepharose coated with the indicated Abs. Immunoadsorbents were washed three times for anti-FcR{gamma} immunoprecipitation or seven times for anti-lyn and anti-syk immunoprecipitations in 1 ml TNE buffer and once in kinase buffer containing 30 mM HEPES, pH 7.4, 5 mM MgCl2, 5 mM MnCl2, and 0.1 mM Na3VO4. Immunoadsorbents were incubated in 40 µl reaction buffer containing 1 µM ATP, 10 µCi [{gamma}-32P]ATP or not, and 1 µg of the indicated GST fusion proteins for 3 min at 30°C. Reactions were stopped by boiling for 3 min with 20 µl 3x concentrated reducing sample buffer. Eluted material was subjected to SDS-PAGE and either stained with Coomassie blue and autoradiographed or transferred onto Immobilon-P membranes. Membranes were saturated with 5% BSA diluted in Western buffer and blotted with an appropriate dilution of horseradish peroxidase-conjugated anti-PY Abs. In these experiments, the controls for immunoprecipitation were treated in the same conditions, but were not submitted to in vitro kinase assay (IVKA). Eluted material was run on SDS-PAGE, transferred onto Immobilon-P. Membranes were saturated with 5% skimmed milk diluted in Western buffer and blotted with the appropriate dilutions of anti-lyn or anti-syk Abs, followed by horseradish peroxidase-conjugated GAM or GAR IgG.

The coaggregation of Fc{gamma}RIIB with Fc{epsilon}RI inhibits IgE-dependent mast cell activation

To analyze the mechanism of Fc{gamma}RIIB-mediated inhibition in mast cells, we used the rat RBL-2H3 mastocytoma cells, which express endogenous Fc{epsilon}RI and which we stably transfected with cDNA encoding wild-type mouse Fc{gamma}RIIB of the three isoforms or Fc{gamma}RIIB without IC domain.

In a first set of experiments, transfectants expressing Fc{gamma}RIIB were sensitized with mouse IgE and challenged with F(ab')2 fragments of polyclonal RAM Ig Abs to aggregate Fc{epsilon}RI, or with intact RAM IgG to coaggregate Fc{epsilon}RI with Fc{gamma}RIIB. As expected, RAM F(ab')2 induced an IgE dose-dependent serotonin release. Serotonin release of a lower magnitude was observed when cells were challenged with RAM IgG (Fig. 1GoA). Likewise, RAM F(ab')2 induced a rapid increase of intracellular Ca2+ concentration that persisted for several minutes. RAM IgG induced a rapid increase of intracellular Ca2+ with a similar magnitude, but which declined sharply within a few seconds. By contrast, the same sustained Ca2+ response was observed when RBL transfectants expressing Fc{gamma}RIIB whose IC domain was deleted (Fc{gamma}RIIB(IC1)) were challenged with RAM F(ab')2 or IgG. The sustained Ca2+ response was restored in Fc{gamma}RIIB1-expressing transfectants sensitized with mouse IgE, if the IgG binding site of Fc{gamma}RIIB1 was blocked with 2.4G2 before challenge with RAM IgG (Fig. 1GoB). When coaggregated with Fc{epsilon}RI, Fc{gamma}RIIB can therefore inhibit IgE-induced serotonin release and extracellular Ca2+ influx.

Transfectants expressing Fc{gamma}RIIB1 were sensitized with dilutions of IgE anti-DNP indicated on abscissa before they were challenged for serotonin release with 30 µg/ml RAM F(ab')2 or 45 µg/ml RAM IgG. The figure represents the percentage of serotonin released as a function of the concentration of IgE. B, Inhibition of Ca2+ influx. Transfectants expressing Fc{gamma}RIIB1 or Fc{gamma}RIIB(IC1) were sensitized with IgE anti-DNP and challenged for Ca2+ mobilization with 10 µg/ml RAM F(ab')2 (---) or 15 µg/ml RAM IgG (••••). IgE-sensitized transfectants expressing Fc{gamma}RIIB1 were also preincubated with 3 µg/ml 2.4G2 F(ab')2 before challenge with RAM IgG (-•-•-). The figure represents the percentage of responding cells as a function of time.

 
To analyze early events leading to inhibition of mast cell activation, we devised another system in which each receptor could be ligated separately or coligated. RBL transfectants expressing Fc{gamma}RIIB1 were sensitized with murine IgE anti-DNP and incubated or not with 2.4G2 F(ab')2 before they were challenged with TNP-conjugated F(ab')2 fragments of polyclonal mouse anti-rat Ig Abs (TNP-MAR F(ab')2). This reagent was recognized as a multivalent Ag by Fc{epsilon}RI-bound mouse IgE anti-DNP and recognized Fc{gamma}RIIB-bound 2.4G2 F(ab')2. It therefore aggregated Fc{epsilon}RI in cells sensitized with IgE, it aggregated Fc{gamma}RIIB in cells incubated with 2.4G2 F(ab')2, and it coaggregated Fc{epsilon}RI with Fc{gamma}RIIB in cells sensitized with IgE and incubated with 2.4G2 F(ab')2. Unless otherwise specified, these conditions were used in all experiments and, whenever possible, they are referred to as aggregation of Fc{epsilon}RI, aggregation of Fc{gamma}RIIB, and coaggregation of Fc{epsilon}RI with Fc{gamma}RIIB, respectively. We first assessed the kinetics of Fc{gamma}RIIB-dependent inhibition of mast cell activation. Serotonin release in response to Fc{epsilon}RI aggregation was complete after 10 min of stimulation. The coaggregation of Fc{gamma}RIIB1 with Fc{epsilon}RI induced an inhibition of serotonin release that was visible as soon as serotonin was detectable and that persisted over a 30-min stimulation period (Fig. 2GoA). The coaggregation of Fc{gamma}RIIB with Fc{epsilon}RI, therefore, does not affect the kinetics of mediator release, but induces an early and long-lasting inhibition of mast cell activation. We next compared the inhibition induced by the three isoforms of murine Fc{gamma}RIIB, Fc{gamma}RIIB1, Fc{gamma}RIIB1', or Fc{gamma}RIIB2, expressed in RBL cells. Serotonin release induced by Fc{epsilon}RI aggregation was inhibited when Fc{epsilon}RI were coaggregated with Fc{gamma}RIIB1, with Fc{gamma}RIIB1', or with Fc{gamma}RIIB2 (Fig. 2GoB). All three isoforms of Fc{gamma}RIIB can therefore inhibit IgE-mediated mast cell activation.

The coaggregation of Fc{gamma}RIIB with Fc{epsilon}RI induces the phosphorylation of Fc{gamma}RIIB ITIM, enabling the selective recruitment of SHIP by phosphorylated Fc{gamma}RIIB

Fc{gamma}RIIB were found previously to become tyrosine phosphorylated when coaggregated with BCR in B cells (10, 29) or with Fc{epsilon}RI in BMMC (27, 28). To determine conditions required for Fc{gamma}RIIB phosphorylation, transfectants expressing Fc{gamma}RIIB1 were incubated with 2.4G2 F(ab')2 and sensitized or not with IgE anti-DNP before they were challenged with TNP-MAR F(ab')2 for various periods of time. Fc{gamma}RIIB were immunoprecipitated and analyzed by Western blotting with anti-PY and anti-Fc{gamma}RIIB Abs. The weak phosphorylation of resting (data not shown) or aggregated Fc{gamma}RIIB1 increased dramatically upon coaggregation with Fc{epsilon}RI (Fig. 3GoA). The increase of Fc{gamma}RIIB1 phosphorylation was maximal at 15 s and persisted for several minutes. To identify Fc{gamma}RIIB tyrosine residues that become phosphorylated upon coaggregation with Fc{epsilon}RI, we used RBL transfectants expressing Fc{gamma}RIIB2 bearing a point mutation of the ITIM tyrosine. Fc{gamma}RIIB1 IC domain contains four tyrosine residues, and Fc{gamma}RIIB2 IC domain only two. Like Fc{gamma}RIIB1, Fc{gamma}RIIB2 became strongly tyrosine phosphorylated upon coaggregation with Fc{epsilon}RI. There was, however, no detectable tyrosine phosphorylation in Fc{gamma}RIIB2 whose tyrosine residue, in the ITIM (Y26), was replaced by a glycine (Fig. 3GoB). When coaggregated with Fc{epsilon}RI, Fc{gamma}RIIB are therefore rapidly phosphorylated, and phosphorylation is abolished when the ITIM tyrosine is mutated.

Transfectants expressing Fc{gamma}RIIB2 or Fc{gamma}RIIB2 in which the ITIM tyrosine was replaced by a glycine (Fc{gamma}RIIB2(Y26G)) were incubated with 2.4G2 F(ab')2, sensitized or not with IgE anti-DNP, challenged with TNP-MAR F(ab')2 for 2 min, and lysed. Lysates were incubated with protein G-Sepharose. Immunoprecipitated material was submitted to SDS-PAGE, transferred onto Immobilon, and sequentially Western blotted wtih anti-PY and anti-Fc{gamma}RIIB Abs.

 
Phosphorylated ITIM is a potential ligand for molecules containing SH2 domains, and phosphorylated Fc{gamma}RIIB were shown previously to bind to the SH2 domain-containing protein tyrosine phosphatases SHP-1 and SHP-2, and to the inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase SHIP. These three phosphatases, however, were differentially recruited in B cells (29, 30) and in BMMC (28), as judged by their ability to coprecipitate with phosphorylated Fc{gamma}RIIB. To determine whether phospho-ITIM could bind to SHP-1, SHP-2, SHIP, and/or to other SH2-containing molecules in RBL cells, synthetic peptides consisting of the ITIM sequence, phosphorylated or not on the tyrosine residue and coupled to Sepharose beads, were used to precipitate lysates from [35S]methionine-labeled RBL cells. As detected by autoradiography, no material was precipitated by nonphosphorylated ITIM peptides. Phosphorylated ITIM peptides precipitated three major proteins, whose apparent m.w. were 150, 69, and 66 kDa. These proteins were identified, by Western blot, as the various isoforms of SHIP, SHP-2, and SHP-1, respectively (Fig. 4GoA).

A, Precipitation of the three phosphatases by phosphorylated ITIM peptides in cell lysates from [35S]methionine-labeled RBL cells. Lysates from metabolically labeled RBL cells were incubated with Sepharose coupled to nonphosphorylated or phosphorylated ITIM peptides. Material eluted from immunoadsorbents was submitted to SDS-PAGE and transferred onto Immobilon. Left panel, Autoradiogram; right panel, Western blot analysis. Blots were incubated sequentially with anti-SHP-2, anti-SHP-1, and anti-SHIP Abs. B, Coprecipitation of SHIP with phosphorylated Fc{gamma}RIIB. Transfectants expressing Fc{gamma}RIIB1 or IC domain-deleted Fc{gamma}RIIB (Fc{gamma}RIIB(IC1)) were sensitized or not with IgE anti-DNP, incubated with or without 2.4G2 F(ab')2, challenged or not with TNP-MAR F(ab')2 for 2 min, and lysed. Lysates were incubated with protein G-Sepharose. Immunoprecipitated material was submitted to SDS-PAGE, transferred onto Immobilon, and Western blotted with anti-Fc{gamma}RIIB, anti-PY, anti-SHP-1, anti-SHP-2, and anti-SHIP Abs. Whole cell lysates (WCL) were used as positive controls for Western blotting with anti-phosphatase Abs.

 
We next examined whether these phosphatases could be coprecipitated with phosphorylated Fc{gamma}RIIB, after coaggregation with Fc{epsilon}RI. Transfectants expressing Fc{gamma}RIIB1 were incubated with or without 2.4G2 F(ab')2 and sensitized, or not, with mouse IgE anti-DNP, before they were challenged with TNP-MAR F(ab')2 for 2 min. Fc{gamma}RIIB immunoprecipitates were analyzed by Western blotting with anti-Fc{gamma}RIIB, anti-PY, anti-SHP-1, anti-SHP-2, and anti-SHIP Abs. Fc{gamma}RIIB1 was not phosphorylated when aggregated, but became strongly tyrosine phosphorylated when coaggregated with Fc{epsilon}RI. Neither SHP-1 nor SHP-2 was coprecipitated with phosphorylated Fc{gamma}RIIB1. However, SHIP was coprecipitated with phosphorylated Fc{gamma}RIIB1 (Fig. 4GoB). It was reported recently that SHIP can bind several cytoplasmic molecules involved in cell activation via Fc{epsilon}RI (40). To determine whether SHIP seen in Fc{epsilon}RI-coaggregated Fc{gamma}RIIB immunoprecipitates was associated with Fc{gamma}RIIB, RBL transfectants expressing Fc{gamma}RIIB whose IC domain was deleted were used under the same conditions in the same experiment. No SHP-1 and no SHP-2, but also no SHIP, were coprecipitated with IC domain-deleted Fc{gamma}RIIB (Fig. 4GoB). SHIP is therefore selectively recruited by phosphorylated Fc{gamma}RIIB, and recruitment requires the IC domain of Fc{gamma}RIIB.

These results altogether indicate that the coaggregation of Fc{gamma}RIIB with Fc{epsilon}RI induces the phosphorylation of Fc{gamma}RIIB on the ITIM tyrosine and this phosphorylation leads to the selective recruitment of SHIP.

The coaggregation of Fc{epsilon}RI with Fc{gamma}RIIB does not affect the phosphorylation of Fc{epsilon}RI ITAMs and the activation of syk

To assess the effects of Fc{gamma}RIIB on signals transduced by Fc{epsilon}RI, we compared the pattern of tyrosine phosphorylation in whole cell lysates after aggregation of Fc{gamma}RIIB, aggregation of Fc{epsilon}RI, or coaggregation of the two receptors in transfectants expressing Fc{gamma}RIIB1. No tyrosine phosphorylation was induced after Fc{gamma}RIIB1 aggregation, whereas Fc{epsilon}RI aggregation induced the tyrosine phosphorylation of a number of intracellular proteins. A comparable pattern of phosphorylation was induced when Fc{epsilon}RI were coaggregated with Fc{gamma}RIIB (Fig. 5GoA). These results indicate that Fc{gamma}RIIB neither induce phosphorylation, when aggregated, nor inhibit IgE-induced phosphorylation, when coaggregated with Fc{epsilon}RI.

Lysates were incubated with protein A-Sepharose coated with anti-FcR{gamma} Abs. Immunoprecipitates were submitted to SDS-PAGE, transferred onto Immobilon, and Western blotted with anti-PY Abs. C, Tyrosine phosphorylation and activation of syk. Transfectants expressing Fc{gamma}RIIB1 were sensitized with IgE anti-DNP, incubated with or without 2.4G2 F(ab')2, challenged or not with TNP-MAR F(ab')2 for 2 min, and lysed. Lysates were incubated with protein A-Sepharose coated with anti-syk Abs. Immunoprecipitates were separated into three parts. One part was used for Western blot with anti-syk Abs, one part was used for Western blot with anti-PY Abs, and one part was submitted to an IVKA in presence of 1 µg GST-HS1 for 3 min. All samples were run on SDS-PAGE, transferred onto Immobilon, and Western blotted as indicated. One microgram of GST-HS1, not incubated with immunoprecipitates, was used as a negative control for the IVKA.

 
To analyze the first steps of signal transduction, we next examined whether coaggregation of Fc{epsilon}RI with Fc{gamma}RIIB would affect the tyrosine phosphorylation of ITAMs in the FcR{gamma} and FcRß subunits of Fc{epsilon}RI. RBL transfectants expressing Fc{gamma}RIIB1 were sensitized with mouse IgE anti-DNP, incubated or not with 2.4G2 F(ab')2, and challenged with increasing concentrations of TNP-MAR F(ab')2. Fc{epsilon}RI complexes were immunoprecipitated with anti-FcR{gamma} Abs and analyzed by Western blotting with anti-PY Abs. The aggregation of Fc{epsilon}RI induced a TNP-MAR F(ab')2 dose-dependent tyrosine phosphorylation of FcRß and FcR{gamma}. Neither phosphorylation of FcRß nor that of FcR{gamma} was reduced significantly upon coaggregation of Fc{epsilon}RI with Fc{gamma}RIIB (Fig. 5GoB). ITAM phosphorylation was therefore not prevented by coaggregation, suggesting that the activity of PTK activated following Fc{epsilon}RI aggregation was not affected by coaggregation.

To analyze the next steps of signal transduction, we examined the phosphorylation of lyn and syk and their kinase activities. Transfectants expressing Fc{gamma}RIIB1 were sensitized with mouse IgE anti-DNP and incubated or not with 2.4G2 F(ab')2 before they were challenged or not with TNP-MAR F(ab')2 for 2 min. lyn and syk were immunoprecipitated with anti-lyn or anti-syk Abs, and immunoprecipitates were submitted or not to an IVKA in the presence of ATP and, as exogenous substrates, GST-p62 and GST-HS1, respectively. GST-HS1 was phosphorylated by syk, but not by lyn, whereas GST-p62 was phosphorylated by both kinases (data not shown). Reaction mixtures were analyzed by Western blotting with anti-PY, anti-lyn, or anti-syk Abs. As previously reported (41, 42), lyn was phosphorylated constitutively in anti-lyn immunoprecipitates, and lyn phosphorylation was neither significantly increased upon Fc{epsilon}RI aggregation nor significantly decreased upon coaggregation of Fc{epsilon}RI with Fc{gamma}RIIB. Likewise, the in vitro kinase activity of lyn on GST-p62 neither increased after Fc{epsilon}RI aggregation nor decreased after Fc{epsilon}RI-Fc{gamma}RIIB coaggregation (data not shown). Therefore, no conclusion can be drawn regarding inhibition of lyn activation by Fc{gamma}RIIB. By contrast, no tyrosine phosphorylation of syk was seen in nonstimulated cells, but syk phosphorylation was induced after the aggregation of Fc{epsilon}RI. syk phosphorylation was also observed when Fc{epsilon}RI were coaggregated with Fc{gamma}RIIB, and this phosphorylation, although appearing slightly reduced in this experiment, was not reproducibly decreased (Fig. 5GoC). GST-HS1 was in vitro phosphorylated by syk immunoprecipitated from nonstimulated cells. The aggregation of Fc{epsilon}RI strongly increased the in vitro phosphorylation of GST-HS1. A comparable in vitro phosphorylation of GST-HS1 was mediated by syk immunoprecipitated from transfectants whose Fc{epsilon}RI were coaggregated with Fc{gamma}RIIB1 (Fig. 5GoC). The coaggregation of Fc{gamma}RIIB with Fc{epsilon}RI therefore does not detectably affect either the phosphorylation or the kinase activity of syk induced upon Fc{epsilon}RI aggregation by IgE and Ag.

Taken together, these results indicate that Fc{gamma}RIIB-mediated inhibition does not prevent Fc{epsilon}RI-mediated transduction of signals leading to receptor phosphorylation and syk activation.

The coaggregation of Fc{gamma}RIIB with Fc{epsilon}RI enables Fc{epsilon}RI-associated lyn to phosphorylate Fc{gamma}RIIB

Since Fc{gamma}RIIB: 1) does not become phosphorylated when aggregated, but only when coaggregated with Fc{epsilon}RI, and 2) does not prevent Fc{epsilon}RI-associated kinases from being activated when coaggregated with Fc{epsilon}RI, we hypothesized that Fc{gamma}RIIB might be a substrate for Fc{epsilon}RI-associated PTK.

To test this hypothesis, we made a GST fusion protein consisting of the IC domain of Fc{gamma}RIIB1' (GST-ICIIB1'), which was used as an exogenous substrate for Fc{epsilon}RI-associated kinases in IVKA. Nontransfected RBL cells were sensitized with mouse IgE anti-DNP and challenged or not with DNP-BSA for 2 min. Fc{epsilon}RI complexes were precipitated with anti-FcR{gamma} Abs and submitted to an IVKA in the presence of [{gamma}-32P]ATP and GST-ICIIB1' or, as a negative control, GST. Reaction mixtures were fractionated by SDS-PAGE and analyzed by Coomassie blue staining and by autoradiography. The aggregation of Fc{epsilon}RI increased the in vitro phosphorylation of a number of proteins that coprecipitated with Fc{epsilon}RI, including a protein with the same apparent m.w. as FcRß. GST-ICIIB1' was weakly phosphorylated when added to Fc{epsilon}RI complexes precipitated from nonstimulated cells and heavily phosphorylated when added to Fc{epsilon}RI complexes precipitated from stimulated cells. Under the same conditions, GST was not phosphorylated (Fig. 6Go). Active kinase(s) that associates with Fc{epsilon}RI complexes following receptor aggregation can therefore phosphorylate the IC domain of Fc{gamma}RIIB in vitro.

lyn and syk are among the PTKs that are activated upon Fc{epsilon}RI aggregation (41, 42). Indeed, when cell lysates from RBL sensitized with IgE and challenged with Ag were immunoprecipitated with anti-FcR{gamma} and analyzed by IVKA on GST-p62 and GST-HS1 used as exogenous substrates for lyn and syk, respectively, both substrates were phosphorylated (data not shown). To investigate whether lyn and/or syk may phosphorylate GST-ICIIB1' in vitro, RBL cells were sensitized with IgE anti-DNP and challenged with DNP-BSA for 2 min. lyn and syk were immunoprecipitated and submitted to IVKA with GST-ICIIB1' as an exogenous substrate. GST-p62 and GST-HS1 were used as positive control substrates for lyn and syk, respectively. Reaction mixtures were analyzed by Western blotting with anti-PY, anti-lyn, and anti-syk Abs. Equivalent in vitro phosphorylation of GST-ICIIB1' was observed when GST-ICIIB1' was added to anti-lyn and anti-syk immunoprecipitates (Fig. 7Go). Both lyn and syk can therefore phosphorylate GST-ICIIB1' in vitro.

To evaluate the respective roles of the two kinases in vivo, we examined the phosphorylation of Fc{gamma}RIIB, when coaggregated with Fc{epsilon}RI in mast cells derived from syk-deficient or lyn-deficient mice. Mast cells derived from both knockout mice expressed similar amounts of Fc{epsilon}RI and Fc{gamma}RIIB as mast cells derived from wild-type mice, as assessed by indirect immunofluorescence (data not shown). As expected, no syk was detected in syk-deficient mast cells (Fig. 8GoA), and no lyn was detected in lyn-deficient mast cells (Fig. 8GoB), as assessed by Western blotting in whole cell lysates. To analyze kinase activities present in syk-deficient and lyn-deficient mast cells, cells were sensitized with mouse IgE and challenged with RAM F(ab')2. syk and lyn were immunoprecipitated and submitted to IVKA in the presence of GST-HS1 or GST-p62, respectively. Reaction mixtures were analyzed by Western blotting with anti-PY Abs. The same phosphorylation of GST-p62 was observed when added to anti-lyn immunoprecipitates from wild-type and syk-deficient mast cells, whereas GST-HS1 was phosphorylated when added to anti-syk immunoprecipitates from wild-type mast cells, but not from syk-deficient mast cells (Fig. 8GoA). The same phosphorylation of GST-HS1 was observed when added to anti-syk immunoprecipitates from wild-type and lyn-deficient mast cells, whereas GST-p62 was phosphorylated when added to anti-lyn immunoprecipitates from wild-type mast cells, but not from lyn-deficient mast cells (Fig. 8GoB). To study the in vivo phosphorylation of Fc{gamma}RIIB, syk-deficient and lyn-deficient mast cells were sensitized with mouse IgE and challenged or not with RAM F(ab')2 or RAM IgG. Fc{gamma}RIIB were immunoprecipitated and analyzed by Western blotting with anti-PY and anti-Fc{gamma}RIIB Abs. Fc{gamma}RIIB phosphorylation was seen in immunoprecipitates from wild-type and syk-deficient mast cells, and the level of phosphorylation was correlated with the amount of immunoprecipitated Fc{gamma}RIIB (Fig. 8GoA). Fc{gamma}RIIB phosphorylation was seen in immunoprecipitates from wild-type mast cells, but not in immunoprecipitates from lyn-deficient mast cells, although comparable amounts of Fc{gamma}RIIB were precipitated from wild-type and lyn-deficient mast cells (Fig. 8GoB). The phosphorylation of Fc{gamma}RIIB was therefore not impaired in syk-deficient mast cells, but completely inhibited in lyn-deficient mast cells.

In the present work, we examined the consequences and the mechanism of the phosphorylation of murine Fc{gamma}RIIB, following coaggregation with Fc{epsilon}RI. We found that: 1) phosphorylated Fc{gamma}RIIB selectively recruit the inositol polyphosphate 5 phosphatase, SHIP, in vivo; 2) the phosphorylation of Fc{gamma}RIIB requires the coaggregation with Fc{epsilon}RI; 3) the coaggregation of Fc{gamma}RIIB with Fc{epsilon}RI does not prevent Fc{epsilon}RI from transducing signals leading to Fc{epsilon}RI phosphorylation and syk activation; 4) when activated by the aggregation of Fc{epsilon}RI, lyn and syk can both phosphorylate Fc{gamma}RIIB in vitro; but 5) lyn, but not syk, is required for in vivo phosphorylation of Fc{gamma}RIIB.

To study the mechanism of Fc{gamma}RIIB-mediated inhibition of IgE-induced mast cell activation, we devised an experimental model in which Fc{epsilon}RI and murine recombinant Fc{gamma}RIIB, expressed in RBL-2H3 cells, could be independently aggregated, or coaggregated at the cell surface. Using this model, we confirmed that the three mouse Fc{gamma}RIIB isoforms, which all contain an ITIM, are able to inhibit IgE-induced serotonin release. Inhibition was observed as soon as serotonin release was detectable, and it did not result from a delay in secretion.

An early event observed when coaggregating Fc{epsilon}RI with Fc{gamma}RIIB was the tyrosine phosphorylation of Fc{gamma}RIIB. Fc{gamma}RIIB phosphorylation occurred within 15 s, i.e., as early as that of the ITAM-containing Fc{epsilon}RI subunits (43). Fc{gamma}RIIB phosphorylation required the conservation of the ITIM tyrosine. This result does not formally prove that phosphorylation occurs on the ITIM tyrosine since Fc{gamma}RIIB2 contains two tyrosines. It nevertheless indicates that this residue is mandatory for Fc{gamma}RIIB phosphorylation. Supporting the assumption that the ITIM tyrosine is indeed phosphorylated, Fc{gamma}RIIB was found to recruit SH2 domain-bearing phosphatases (27, 28, 29, 30). We observed that, when incubated with lysates from [35S]methionine-labeled RBL cells, synthetic peptides corresponding to Fc{gamma}RIIB phospho-ITIM bound in vitro to the same three phosphatases as when incubated with B cell (29) or BMMC (27, 28) lysates. These were two tyrosine phosphatases, SHP-1 and SHP-2, and the inositol polyphosphate 5 phosphatase, SHIP. Remarkably, only SHIP was coprecipitated with phosphorylated Fc{gamma}RIIB in RBL cells. The same was observed in BMMC (28). The structural bases and biologic significance of selective recruitment remain to be established. Supporting a selective in vivo recruitment of SHIP in mast cells, Fc{gamma}RIIB were found to inhibit IgE-mediated activation in mast cells derived from bone marrow of the SHP-1-deficient motheaten mice (27, 28), indicating that SHP-1 is not required for inhibition of serotonin release. Whether SHIP is directly responsible for Fc{gamma}RIIB-mediated inhibition of mast cell activation remains to be demonstrated. The coprecipitation of SHIP with phosphorylated Fc{gamma}RIIB is simply correlated with inhibition of secretion. We observed that the coaggregation of Fc{epsilon}RI with Fc{gamma}RIIB in RBL cells inhibits the late Ca2+ flux, without affecting the early phase of Ca2+ mobilization. The same was observed in B cells (44) and in BMMC (28). How SHIP can possibly block the influx of extracellular Ca2+ is unclear. SHIP, indeed, dephosphorylates 5'-phosphate groups in inositol (1, 3, 4, 5)-tetraphosphate and in phosphatidylinositol (3, 4, 5)-trisphosphate (45). These substrates are not known to be directly involved in the opening of Ca2+ channels. SHIP can however interfere with the phospholipid metabolism: phosphatidylinositol (3, 4, 5)-trisphosphate was suggested to enhance the translocation of PLC{gamma}-2 to the plasma membrane (46), where it hydrolyzes phosphatidylinositol (4, 5)-bisphosphate into inositol (1, 4, 5)-trisphosphate. SHIP may thus ultimately decrease the sustained production of inositol (1, 4, 5)-trisphosphate, which is needed for generating the signals leading to the entry of extracellular Ca2+ (47), as it was observed in B cells (48). Alternatively and not exclusively, SHIP can bind, directly or indirectly, to other molecules implicated in signal transduction, such as shc (49) or SHP-2 (50), respectively. Finally, one cannot exclude that not yet identified molecules may contribute to Fc{gamma}RIIB-mediated inhibition.

Compatible with our finding that no tyrosine phosphatase is recruited by phosphorylated Fc{gamma}RIIB in mast cells, we observed that the coaggregation with Fc{gamma}RIIB did not prevent Fc{epsilon}RI from activating PTK. The pattern of phosphorylation of intracellular substrates was not affected by coaggregation. The phosphorylation of FcRß and FcR{gamma} ITAMs was not inhibited, and the activation of syk was not decreased, as judged by its in vivo phosphorylation and by its in vitro kinase activity on a syk-specific substrate. This indicates that the initial steps of signal transduction following Fc{epsilon}RI aggregation are not impaired by Fc{gamma}RIIB, and that inhibition acts on second messengers rather than on early phosphorylation events.

Fc{gamma}RIIB must be phosphorylated to inhibit mast cell activation: the point mutation of the ITIM tyrosine was sufficient to abrogate inhibition of mediator release (13), and this mutation prevented Fc{gamma}RIIB phosphorylation. Inhibition of serotonin release required that Fc{epsilon}RI be coaggregated with Fc{gamma}RIIB (14), and Fc{gamma}RIIB became tyrosine phosphorylated only when coaggregated with Fc{epsilon}RI. This suggests that Fc{gamma}RIIB may not be constitutively associated with a tyrosine kinase. Supporting this hypothesis, Fc{gamma}RIIB aggregation induced no phosphorylation of intracellular substrates. We therefore hypothesized that Fc{gamma}RIIB phosphorylation depends on Fc{epsilon}RI-associated kinases that become activated and/or recruited in the receptor complex. We provide evidence supporting this possibility. PTK that were coprecipitated with activated Fc{epsilon}RI could phosphorylate in vitro a GST fusion protein consisting of the Fc{gamma}RIIB IC domain. lyn and syk were shown previously to coprecipitate with aggregated Fc{epsilon}RI under these conditions (41, 42), and we found in vitro kinase activities on both lyn and syk substrates in immunoprecipitates of activated Fc{epsilon}RI (data not shown). When immunoprecipitated from RBL cells sensitized with IgE and challenged with Ag, both lyn and syk phosphorylated GST-Fc{gamma}RIIB IC in vitro. To validate these in vitro data, we examined wether Fc{gamma}RIIB could be phosphorylated in vivo when coaggregated with Fc{epsilon}RI in mast cells derived from syk-deficient mice or lyn-deficient mice. We found that Fc{gamma}RIIB became phosphorylated in syk-deficient mast cells. This indicates that syk is not mandatory for Fc{gamma}RIIB phosphorylation. By contrast, Fc{gamma}RIIB phosphorylation was abrogated in lyn-deficient mast cells, although the kinase activity of syk was conserved in these cells. This indicates that lyn is required for Fc{gamma}RIIB phosphorylation in vivo, and that it cannot be replaced by another kinase. Whether lyn directly phosphorylates Fc{gamma}RIIB or whether it activates another kinase that phosphorylates Fc{gamma}RIIB cannot be determined. Our data altogether suggest that, upon coaggregation of the two receptors, lyn is normally activated and brought by Fc{epsilon}RI in the vicinity of the Fc{gamma}RIIB ITIM, enabling Fc{gamma}RIIB to be phosphorylated, to recruit SHIP and, ultimately, to inhibit mast cell responses. Such a mechanism seems to be unique, in view of previous studies on Fc{gamma}RIIB-mediated inhibition of B cell activation and on inhibition mediated by other ITIM-bearing negative coreceptors such as human KIRs.

In B cells, phosphorylated Fc{gamma}RIIB were reported to recruit SHP-1, and Fc{gamma}RIIB-mediated inhibition of cell activation was abrogated in B cells from motheaten mice (29). CD19 was proposed to be a potential substrate of SHP-1, as its phosphorylation was inhibited upon coaggregation of BCR with Fc{gamma}RIIB. As a consequence, the association of CD19 with phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase seen upon BCR aggregation was prevented (51, 52). No equivalent of CD19 is known in mast cells. Neither the phosphorylation pattern of intracellular substrates nor the phosphorylation of specific proteins involved in signal transduction, including Ig{alpha}, Igß, lyn, syk, and PLC-{gamma}, was affected (51, 52) upon coaggregation of BCR with Fc{gamma}RIIB. Kinases associated with BCR might therefore phosphorylate Fc{gamma}RIIB in B cells, like we found for kinases associated with Fc{epsilon}RI in mast cells, as suggested by the recent observation that Fc{gamma}RIIB-mediated inhibition is impaired in B cells from lyn-/- mice (53). Finally, the apparent discrepancy between studies made in B cells and in mast cells may be reconciled by the recent finding that phosphorylated Fc{gamma}RIIB could recruit SHIP also in B cells (30, 31). By contrast with Fc{gamma}RIIB, phosphorylated KIR ITIM peptides were shown to bind in vitro to SHP-1 (54) and SHP-2, but not to SHIP (55) and, when coaggregated with Fc{epsilon}RI in RBL cells (56), p58 KIRs recruited SHP-1, whereas Fc{gamma}RIIB recruited SHIP (our unpublished results). The recruitment of tyrosine phosphatases by phosphorylated KIRs was correlated with the dephosphorylation of {zeta}, ZAP-70, and PLC{gamma}-1/2 in NK cells (57).

In conclusion, this study provides evidence that Fc{epsilon}RI are involved in Fc{gamma}RIIB-mediated inhibition of IgE-dependent mast cell activation. Fc{gamma}RIIB (14) and KIRs (56) both must be coaggregated with ITAM-bearing receptors to inhibit cell activation. The biologic significance of coaggregation seems, however, to be different for the two ITIM-bearing receptors. In KIR-mediated inhibition, coaggregation makes phosphorylated tyrosines of cell-activating receptors and/or kinases the substrates of protein tyrosine phosphatases recruited by phosphorylated KIRs. In Fc{gamma}RIIB-mediated inhibition, coaggregation makes the ITIM a substrate for Fc{epsilon}RI-associated lyn, enabling Fc{gamma}RIIB to recruit SHIP. As a consequence, cell-activating receptors may be passive targets in KIR-mediated inhibition, whereas they actively participate to their own inhibition, by enabling ITIM phosphorylation, in Fc{gamma}RIIB-mediated inhibition.
