chemokine R family. The cDNA encoding CXCR4 has been cloned by a number
of groups, initially as an orphan receptor (1, 2, 3, 4, 5). Although high levels
of CXCR4 transcripts are found in leukocytes and a wide variety of
tissues (1, 2, 3, 5, 6), its expression is not ubiquitous and seems to be
cell-specific in hematopoietic cells. CXCR4 is expressed on the cell
surface of a majority of T cells, all B cells, and monocytes, but is
only weakly expressed on NK cells and is not detected on neutrophils
(7). CXCR4 has a unique ligand, stromal-derived factor-1
(SDF-1),4 originally
identified as a growth factor for mouse pre-B cells (8, 9). CXCR4, together with CCR5, a member of the ß chemokine R family, have gained wide attention since the discovery that these molecules serve as coreceptors for entry of T lymphocyte (T)-tropic (10) or macrophage (M)-tropic (11, 12, 13) HIV strains, respectively. It has been reported that CXCR4 and CCR5 are differentially expressed on activated peripheral blood T lymphocytes (14, 15). However, despite the crucial importance of CXCR4 in HIV-induced pathology, the role of T cell differentiation-inducing cytokines in the regulation of its expression has not yet been determined.
In this study, we have investigated the modulatory effects of IL-4 on CXCR4 expression on resting, as well as on activated, human T cells and T cell clones and have tested the functionality of the IL-4-induced CXCR4.

CD4+ T cells were purified by negative selection (purity > 95%) from peripheral and cord blood mononuclear cell preparations, using a mixture of isotype-matched mAb specific for B cells, monocytes, NK cells, CD8+ T cells and erythrocytes, and IgG-coated magnetic beads (Stem Cell Technologies, Vancouver, Canada), according to the manufacturers instructions. Cloned T cell lines were generated by using stimulation, cloning, and culture procedures that have been described previously (16). All cultures and experiments were conducted in Yssels medium (Ref. 17; Irvine Scientific, Santa Ana, CA), supplemented with 1% human AB+ serum.
mAbs, immunofluorescence, and flow cytometry
Anti-human biotinylated anti-CXCR4 mAb IVR-7 (IgG1; 7 , biotinylated isotype-matched control mAb, phycoerthrin-conjugated streptavidin and FITC-conjugated anti-CD25 mAb (Becton Dickinson, San Jose, CA) were used for flow cytometry. Immunofluorescence staining techniques have been described previously (7), and cells were analyzed by using a FACScalibur flow cytometer (Becton Dickinson).
Cell culture and stimulation conditions
One million purified peripheral blood T cells, cord blood T cells, or T cell clones were stimulated with bead-immobilized anti-CD3 (SPV-T3b) and anti-CD28 mAbs (B-T3; Diaclone, Besançon, France) at a ratio of beads/T cells of 5:1, or stimulated with a mitogenic combination of anti-CD2 (39C1.5 and 6F10.3, kindly provided by Dr. D. Olive, Institut National de la Santé et de la Recherche Médicale, Marseille, France) and anti-CD28 mAbs (final concentration, 2.5 µg/ml), in the presence or absence of 2 ng/ml rIL-2, 5 ng/ml rIL-4 (kind gifts of Dr. S. Menon, DNAX, Palo Alto, CA and Dr. N. Nagabushan, Schering-Plough, Kennilworth, NJ, respectively), or 0.5 ng/ml rIL-12 (R&D Systems, Minneapolis, MN). For stimulation with bead-immobilized mAbs, goat-anti-mouse Ab-coated Dynal M-450 magnetic beads (Dynal, Oslo, Norway) were coupled with equal amounts of SPV-T3b and B-T3 according to the manufacturers instructions.
Cell stimulation and Western blot analysis for measurement of p42 ERK-2 MAP kinase (MAPK) activity
T cell clones, cultured in the presence or absence of rIL-4, were washed extensively, starved for 4 h in medium lacking serum at 37°C, washed once more, and resuspended in PBS at a concentration of 1 x 107 cells/ml. One million cells were incubated with either 25 nM rSDF-1 (generously provided by Dr. K. Bacon, Neurokine, San Diego, CA) or with 10 µg of the anti-CD3 mAb UCHT-1 (PharMingen, La Jolla, CA) for 3 min at 37°C. Western blot analysis was performed as reported previously (18), using an anti-active MAPK polyclonal Ab (Promega, Madison, WI) and horseradish peroxidase-conjugated goat anti-rabbit IgG (Amersham, Arlington Heights, IL). Equivalent loading was assessed by reblotting the membranes with an anti-ERK-2 mAb (Transduction Laboratories, Lexington, KY), as well as with an anti-Zap-70 mAb (a kind gift of Dr. Art Weiss, University of California, San Francisco, CA).
Infection with and detection of HIV in T cell clones
T cell clones, cultured in the presence of either rIL-2 or rIL-2 and rIL-4, were washed, resuspended at a concentration of 107 cells/ml, and cocultured with the T-tropic strain HIV-1LAI (a kind gift of Dr. D. Klatzmann, Hôpital de la Salpétrière, Paris, France). After an incubation for 1 h at 37°C, cells were washed and cultured for an additional 6 days with the same cytokine combination, and the percentage of HIV-infected cells was determined by flow cytometry using the FITC-conjugated anti-p24 mAb KC57-RD1 (Coulter, Hialeah, FL), as described (19).

As has been shown for many seven-transmembrane proteins, chemokine R
signaling is dependent on coupling to Bordetella pertussis
toxin-sensitive G proteins, resulting in downstream signaling events,
including those mediated via the Ras/Raf/MAPK pathway (21, 22). To
investigate whether IL-4-induced CXCR4 expression on T cells was
functional, the ability of SDF-1 to activate the MAPK-signal
transduction cascade was assessed. As shown in Fig. 4
A, activated ERK-2 MAPK could
be detected in the rIL-4-cultured, CXCR4-expressing, Th1 clone HY-243
following stimulation of the cells with 25 nM rSDF-1. Levels of
activated ERK-2 MAPK were comparable to those induced following
triggering of the TCR/CD3 complex on these cells with a cross-linked
anti-CD3 mAb. Although equivalent activation of ERK-2 was observed
upon CD3-engagement of the Th1 clone, cultured in the absence of rIL-4,
stimulation of the MAPK pathway was not observed upon treatment of
these cells with rSDF-1. Similar results were obtained with the cord
blood-derived Th1 clone CB-214 (data not shown). The observed
differences between T cell clones cultured in the absence or presence
of rIL-4 were not due to changes in global levels of signaling
proteins, because ERK-2 expression, as well as levels of the T
cell-specific ZAP-70 protein tyrosine kinase, were equivalent under
both culture conditions (Fig. 4
, B and C).
Although T cell clones, cultured in rIL-2 and rIL-4, constitutively
expressed low levels of activated ERK-2 before activation, it is
important to note that IL-4 itself is not able to activate ERK-2 (23).
Taken together, it is shown here that interaction of CXCR4 with its
ligand results in a rapid activation of the Ras/Raf/MAPK pathway on T
lymphocytes. However, it remains to be determined whether the MAPK
signaling cascade is also activated upon binding of HIV to CXCR4 and,
if so, whether this activation pathway plays a role in HIV entry
as well.
