Dendritic cells (DC) are important APCs that play a key role in the induction of an immune response. The signaling molecules that govern early events in DC activation are not well understood. We therefore investigated whether DC express carcinoembryonic Ag-related cell adhesion molecule 1 (CEACAM1, also known as BGP or CD66a), a well-characterized signal-regulating cell-cell adhesion molecule that is expressed on granulocytes, monocytes, and activated T cells and B cells. We found that murine DC express in vitro as well as in vivo both major isoforms of CEACAM1, CEACAM1-L (having a long cytoplasmic domain with immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motifs) and CEACAM1-S (having a short cytoplasmic domain lacking phosphorylat- able tyrosine residues). Ligation of surface-expressed CEACAM1 on DC with the specific mAb AgB10 triggered release of the Downloaded from macrophage inflammatory 1␣, macrophage inflammatory protein 2, and monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 and induced migration of granulocytes, monocytes, T cells, and immature DC. Furthermore, the surface expression of the costimulatory molecules CD40, CD54, CD80, and CD86 was increased, indicating that CEACAM1-induced signaling regulates early maturation and activation of dendritic cells. In addition, signaling via CEACAM1 induced release of the IL-6, .IL-12 p40, and IL-12 p70 and facilitated priming of naive MHC II-restricted CD4؉ T cells with a Th1-like effector phenotype

Hence, our results show that CEACAM1 is a signal-transducing receptor that can regulate early maturation and activation of DC, http://www.jimmunol.org/ thereby facilitating priming and polarization of T cell responses. The Journal of Immunology, 2001, 166: 6537–6544.

The purity of the isolated CD4ϩ T cell subset was Ͼ96% as de- gen, Hilden, Germany). The RNA yield was quantified photometrically and termined by flow cytometry (FCM). 1 ␮g mRNA was used for cDNA syntheses by reverse using The Journal of Immunology 6539 the Reverse Transcription System (Promega, Mannheim, Germany). The reverse transcription product was amplified by PCR for 25 cycles with taq polymerase (Qiagen). PCR conditions were 95°C for 1.5 min, annealing at 60°C (CEACAM1) and at 58°C (␤-) for 1.1 min, extension at 72°C for 1.5 min, and final extension at 72°C for 15 min. The primers used were 5Ј-AGCGTCAGGAGGAGCAACTCAA and 3Ј-AGAAGAAGGGGCT GAAGTTGGC, complementary to both sides of exon 7. Thus, an amplified fragment of 268 bp is expected from the short cytoplasmic isoform, and a fragment of 321 bp is expected from the long cytoplasmic isoform. A 569-bp fragment from the ␤-actin mRNA was amplified using the 5Ј- primer ATGGATGACGATATCGCT and the 3Ј-primer ATGAGG TAGTCTGTCAGGT. Ten microliters of each PCR product were analyzed by 1.5% agarose gel electrophoresis and visualized by ethidium bromide staining.

Signaling through CEACAM1 triggers release of IL-6 and IL-12 We tested whether mDC stimulated by mAb AgB10 release cyto- kines. Purified mDC from both mouse strains spontaneously re- leased low amounts of IL-12 p40 (0.3–1.0 ng/106 cells/ml), IL-12 p70 (20–60 pg/106 cells/ml), and IL-18 but no IFN-␥ or IL-6 into the supernatant during a 2- to 3-day incubation (Fig. 5 and data not shown). CEACAM1-mediated stimulation of DC strongly en- hanced the release of IL-6, IL-12 p40, and IL-12 p70. Ligation of CEACAM1 was as effective as LPS in stimulating release of IL-6 by DC (Fig. 5A). CEACAM1-dependent signals were more effi- cient than TNF-␣ or LPS in triggering release of IL-12 p70 but less potent than CD40 ligation (Fig. 5A). Release of IL-18 or IFN-␥ by DC was not induced by CEACAM1 ligation (data not shown). Treatment of DC with isotype-matched control mAb, the anti-E- cadherin mAb Decma-1, or heat-inactivated mAb AgB10 did not

stimulate IL-6 or IL-12 release by DC (Fig. 5B and data not Downloaded from shown). We detected no synergy among CEACAM1-, CD40-, or TNF-␣-dependent signals in stimulating the release of IL-6, IL-12, or IL-18 release by DC (Fig. 5C and data not shown).

Stimulation of DC through CEACAM1 enhances their T cell-

stimulatory function http://www.jimmunol.org/ The secretion of IL-12 by DC in response to CEACAM1 suggests that these DC can efficiently prime Th1 T cell responses. To test this hypothesis, we cocultured naive splenic CD4ϩ T cells from TCR-transgenic DO11.10 donor mice (40) for 5 days with OVA- FIGURE 4.

B, Heat inactivation (h.i.) of the anti (␣)-CEACAM1 mAb destroyed its capacity to induce IL-12 p70 release, indicat- ing that LPS contamination is not responsible for the induction of IL-12 p70 release. C, Costimu- lation of DC with TNF-␣ or CD40 ligation plus CEACAM1-dependent signals does not induce a synergistic cytokine release response, demon- strated here with IL-12 p40 release. Similar data were observed when IL-6 or IL-12 p70 release was measured (data not shown). 6542 CEACAM1 REGULATES DC FUNCTION

Hence, homophilic binding may not occur to NK cell-inhibitory receptors or Ig-like transcript receptors between CEACAM1-expressing adjacent cells, unless CEACAM1 (ILT). Identification of CEACAM1 expression on DC is important, is activated by alteration of its supramolecular organization. The because the only members of the IRF that have been described on mechanisms for Ab-induced CEACAM1 signaling may accord- murine DC thus far are the paired Ig-like receptors (PIR) (41).

To our knowledge, our work is the Although we do not know whether there are other physiological first to demonstrate that receptors of the IRF transmit maturation- ligands for CEACAM1, it is well known that CEACAM1 acts as inducing signals to DC that facilitate T cell priming. receptor for several microbial pathogens.

Thus, the activating receptor used to signal DC may determine which types of immune cells are preferentially recruited into the emerging immune re- sponse. CEACAM1-mediated signaling stimulated an up-regula- tion of the surface expression of MHC and costimulator molecules on DC and enhanced their IL-12 and IL-6 release. IL-12 p70 (the bioactive form of IL-12) release by DC in response to CEACAM1 perturbation was greater than the IL-12 p70 release triggered by LPS or TNF-␣ but lower than the IL-12 p70 release triggered by CD40 ligation, which is the most potent IL-12-inducing stimulus yet identified (56, 57). These data identify CEACAM1 as an effi- cient inducer of IL-12 release by DC. An important issue for future analyses is how CEACAM1 per- turbation triggers signaling and how this is induced in vivo. The only well-characterized physiological ligand for CEACAM1 is CEACAM1 itself. The N-terminal Ig domain mediates reciprocal homophilic binding (58), which is responsible for the cell-cell ad- hesion activity of CEACAM1. It has been proposed that ho- ϩ FIGURE 6.
