Introduction |
Aregulated immune response requires that lymphocytes
not only can be stimulated by antigen, but also that
they receive signals that suppress spontaneous and antigen-dependent activation. The components of a cell involved
in such a "suppressive" signaling pathway have been suggested by the phenotype of hyperactive B cells in mice
having mutations affecting each of three genes: the naturally occurring mutations of the Shp-1 gene in the motheaten and motheaten viable (mev) mouse strains (1, 2), and the targeted interruptions of the Lyn (3) and Cd22 (6) genes.
SHP-1 was the most obvious of these three to have a
role in the downregulation of signal transduction because
its protein tyrosine phosphatase function can potentially reverse cellular activation induced by protein tyrosine kinases. The two SH2-domains of SHP-1 directly couple its
inhibitory function to the activation of tyrosine kinases by
localizing and activating the phosphatase at the site of the
active kinase (10). The biological importance of SHP-1 for
B cell responses is exemplified by me and mev mice, in
which diminished levels of SHP-1 cause expansion of the
B-1 subset of B cells, elevated levels of serum IgM, and a low threshold of membrane immunoglobulin (mIg) signaling (11, 12).
CD22 is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily
that is expressed only on B cells, and early studies had suggested it to be a positive regulator of cellular activation
(13). However, the findings that (a) tyrosine phosphorylated CD22 recruits SHP-1 (14, 15), (b) coligating CD22 to
mIg suppresses activation of mitogen-activated protein (MAP)
kinases (16), and (c) sequestering CD22 from mIg enhances B
cell activation (15) have indicated that CD22 serves primarily
as an inhibitor. Although the precise role of CD22 in the
biology of the B cell is not yet understood in relation to its
natural ligand (sialic acid in the structure, Sia
2-6Gal
1-4GlcNAc; reference 17), the association of CD22 with mIg
in resting B cells (18, 19) suggests that it may constitutively
suppress signaling by the antigen receptor. The absence of
this function may account for the spontaneous, antigen-independent activation of CD22-null B cells in vivo, and for
their enhanced activation in vitro when mIg is ligated (6).
Lyn is an src-related nonreceptor tyrosine kinase that associates with the Ig-
-Ig-
heterodimer (20), contributing
to the activation of Syk (21) and regulation of intracellular
Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i; reference 22), functions that
suggest an important role in the stimulation of the B cell.
Therefore, the finding that the targeted disruption of the
Lyn gene in mice caused elevated levels of IgM, production
of autoantibodies, and accentuated signaling through mIg
was unanticipated (3, 23). One must conclude that Lyn
also has inhibitory functions that are not duplicated by
other kinases, whereas its activating role may be at least partially redundant and shared by other src-type kinases of
the B cell, such as Fyn and Blk (24).
Although inhibition of B cell activation by Fc
RIIB1 is
impaired in Lyn
/
mice (23), the phenotype of the
Lyn
/
B cell more closely resembles that of the Cd22
/
B cell than that of the Fc
RII
/
cell (25). A role for Lyn
in CD22 function is also suggested by the physical association of the two proteins (26). In this study, we find that
Lyn has an essential, nonredundant role in regulating the
ability of CD22 to recruit SHP-1 for the suppression of signaling by mIg.

Materials and Methods |
Animals and Cells.
Lyn-deficient mice were generated as previously described (3) and used at 6-8 wk of age. Mice were genotyped
by PCR amplification of the wild-type and/or targeted Lyn allele
from tail DNA (3). Splenic and lymph node B cells were purified by
centrifugation through Lympholyte-M (Cedarlane Labs., Ltd.,
Hornby, Ontario, Canada) and through complement-mediated depletion of T cells using anti-Thy1.2 mAb and rabbit complement (27).
Antibodies.
Antibodies used in this study were Lyb 8.2 allotypic mouse anti-mouse CD22 (PharMingen, San Diego, CA);
biotinylated control mouse IgG1-
anti-trinitrophenyl (PharMingen); rabbit anti-human CD22 antisera raised to a CD22-
glutathione S transferase fusion protein; mouse anti-human SHP-1
(which cross-reacts with mouse SHP-1; Transduction Laboratories, Lexington, KY); control mouse IgG1-
(PharMingen); peroxidase-coupled mouse anti-rabbit IgG (Jackson Immunoresearch Labs., West Grove, PA); peroxidase-coupled rabbit anti-
mouse IgG (Jackson Immunoresearch Labs.); mouse 4G10 mAb
to phosphotyrosine (UBI, Lake Placid, NY); RA3-6B2 anti-CD45/B220; Thy 1.2 mAb (Sigma Chemical Co., Poole, UK);
F(ab
)2 goat anti-mouse IgM (Jackson Immunoresearch Labs.),
LO-MK-1 rat IgG2a anti-mouse
(Zymed, South San Francisco, CA); 8C5 anti-Gr-1 (gift of Dr. R. Coffman, DNAX,
Stanford, CA); M1/70 anti-CD11b; 2.4G2 anti-Fc
RI and II;
F4/80 anti-mouse monocyte/macrophage mAb; and Ter119 antierythrocyte precursor mAb.
Flow Cytometric Analysis.
Single cell suspensions were prepared and cell staining was performed as previously described
(28). Cells were analyzed and sorted using an argon laser, and
[Ca2+]i was measured using a UV laser of a Moflow flow cytometer (Cytomation Inc., Fort Collins, CO).
[Ca2+]i Measurement.
Splenocytes were stained with a cocktail of FITC-conjugated antibodies (Thy 1.2, 8C5, M1/70, F4/
80, and Ter119) with B cells left unstained (confirmed by counterstaining with PE-conjugated anti-CD45R/B220). Alternatively, B cells in some experiments were identified by staining
with PE-conjugated anti-CD45R/B220, a procedure shown not
to interfere with CD22 function as determined by assays of
[Ca2+]i (data not shown). After surface staining, 2 × 107 cells
were washed and resuspended in HBSS containing 10 mM Hepes (pH 7.4), 1 mg/ml bovine serum albumin, 1 mM CaCl2 and 1 mM
MgCl2 (HBSA). Indo-1 (Molecular Probes Inc., Eugene, OR)
was added at 2 µM and the cells were incubated in the dark for
40 min at 37°C. Cells were washed, resuspended in HBSA containing saturating amounts of 2.4G2 to block Fc receptors, and
stained with biotinylated Fab fragments of anti-
and either anti-CD22 or control mAbs for 2 min. The fluorescence ratio of the
cells was measured by flow cytometry until the addition of 20 µg/ml soluble avidin to crosslink the cell-bound Fab fragments,
after which the measurement was continued for an additional 320 s.
Immunoprecipitation and Immunoblotting.
7-10 × 107 B cells
(prepared at room temperature as above) were suspended in 0.5 ml HBSS containing 10 mM Hepes (pH 7.4), 1 mM CaCl2, and
1 mM MgCl2, and were activated by the addition of F(ab
)2 goat
anti-mouse IgM (20 µg/ml). Stimulation was terminated by the
addition of an equal volume of 2× NP-40 lysis buffer (15) at 4°C,
followed by mixing and incubation on ice for 15 min. After clearing the lysate by centrifugation at 14,000 rpm for 15 min, CD22 was precipitated by the addition of biotinylated Lyb-8.2 or
an isotype control mAb (8 µg/ml) and avidin-agarose. SHP-1 was precipitated using a mouse anti-human SHP-1 antibody
known to cross-react with the mouse protein (4 µg/ml), followed by rabbit anti-mouse Ig and protein A-Sepharose. The resulting precipitates were washed four times, resuspended in Laemlli
buffer with 100 mM dithiothreitol, , and boiled for 5 min. Lysates
were then separated by SDS-PAGE and transferred to nitrocellulose membranes. Transfer was confirmed and molecular weight
markers were visualized with Ponceau stain.
To detect tyrosine phosphorylation, nitrocellulose membranes
were incubated with 4G10 (0.1 mg/ml), radiolabeled as previously described (29), washed, and exposed to XOMAT film
(Eastman Kodak Co., Rochester, NY) at
80°C using an intensifying screen. CD22 and SHP-1 were detected using rabbit anti-
human CD22 antibody and mouse anti-human SHP-1 mAb
(both shown to cross-react with the relevant mouse protein), followed by horseradish peroxidase-conjugated mouse anti-rabbit
and rabbit anti-mouse Ig, respectively. After washing an enhanced chemiluminescence detection system (ECL; Supersignal©;
Pierce Chemical Co., Rockford, IL) was used for visualization.

Results |
B cells lacking CD22, Lyn, or SHP-1 more readily elevate [Ca2+]i in response to ligation of mIg than do normal
B cells (5, 12, 23), indicating that these proteins may
regulate B cell activation by a common mechanism. As
cross-linking CD22 to mIg provides a means by which its
inhibitory function can be assessed (16), we determined
whether coligating CD22 to mIg diminishes the [Ca2+]i response induced by the antigen receptor. B cells were loaded with the Ca2+-sensitive fluorescent indicator, indo-1, and
were preincubated with biotinylated Fab fragment of antibody to
light chain in combination with either biotinylated Fab anti-CD22 or control irrelevant Fab. The cells
were activated by addition of avidin, and [Ca2+]i was monitored by flow cytometry. In B cells from Lyn+/+ mice, cross-linking of anti-
alone induced a prompt rise in
[Ca2+]i that was followed by a gradual decline after 320 s to
a level that was 33% of the maximal increment (Fig. 1).
Coligating CD22 to
suppressed the initial response by
40%, and maintained this inhibitory effect until the [Ca2+]i
had returned to that of unstimulated cells (Fig. 1). In contrast to these findings in wild-type B cells, CD22 coligation
did not inhibit the rise in [Ca2+]i induced by mIg in
Lyn
/
B cells (Fig. 1). These results were not caused by
absent expression of CD22 on B cells from Lyn
/
mice,
as expression was similar to that of their +/+ littermates (Fig. 1). Similar results were obtained in four additional experiments in which B cells were identified either by gating
out all non-B cells that had been stained by a cocktail of
monoclonal antibodies, or, as was done in this experiment, by
their staining with antibody to B220. Therefore, juxtaposition of CD22 to mIg diminishes the capacity of the antigen
receptor to elevate [Ca2+]i, and this function requires Lyn.

lymphocytes that had been loaded with Indo-1 were incubated with biotinylated Fab fragments of anti- and either anti-CD22 (Lyb-8.2; solid
line) or isotype control antibodies (dashed line). The fluorescence ratio of
the cells was measured by flow cytometry until the addition of avidin to
cross-link the cell-bound Fab fragments, after which the measurement
was continued for an additional 320 s. B cells were identified in this experiment by counterstaining with B220. (B) Analysis of these splenocytes
showed that although there were fewer B220-positive cells in Lyn /

To determine whether Lyn mediates the mIg-induced
tyrosine phosphorylation of CD22, purified splenic B cells
from Lyn
/
and Lyn+/+ mice were held in buffer or
were stimulated with the F(ab
)2 fragment of polyclonal
anti-µ for 1 and 5 min, the cells were lysed, and CD22 was
immunoprecipitated. The precipitated proteins were assessed both by immunoblotting with antibody to phosphotyrosine and antibody to CD22. CD22 in Lyn+/+ B cells
demonstrated constitutive tyrosine phosphorylation, and ligation of mIgM increased this modification (Fig. 2 A). This
change in CD22 was especially apparent when, by scanning
densitometry, the ratio of the antiphosphotyrosine signal to
the anti-CD22 signal which adjusts for minor changes in
the loading of CD22, was determined (Fig. 2 B). CD22
was also constitutively phosphorylated in B cells from
Lyn
/
mice to almost the same level as in wild type B
cells, but the ratio of the antiphosphotyrosine signal to the
anti-CD22 signal was not increased by ligating mIg (Fig.
2). Therefore, Lyn selectively mediates mIg-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of CD22.

Tyrosine phosphorylation of CD22 in resting and
mIg-activated B cells from
Lyn+/+ and Lyn / mice.
(A) Purified B cells were stimulated with the F(ab )2 fragment
of anti-µ for timed intervals and
then lysed. CD22 was immunoprecipitated (IP) from the lysates with anti-CD22 or control
mouse IgG1. The precipitates
were subjected to SDS-PAGE
followed by sequential immunoblotting with 125I-labeled monoclonal antiphosphotyrosine, and with rabbit anti-CD22 with detection by ECL. (B) The ratio of the intensity of
the antiphosphotyrosine and anti-CD22 signals at each time point was determined by densitometric analysis, which permitted a comparison of the
relative tyrosine phosphorylation of CD22 in B cells from the Lyn+/+
and Lyn / mice.

The recruitment of SHP-1 is considered to mediate the
inhibitory effects of CD22. Therefore, we examined the
interaction of SHP-1 with CD22 in Lyn+/+ and Lyn
/
B cells before and after cross-linking mIgM by analyzing
immunoprecipitates of SHP-1 for the presence of tyrosine
phosphorylated CD22. In resting wild-type B cells, SHP-1
was associated with a tyrosine phosphorylated protein having the molecular weight of CD22, and activation of these
B cells through mIgM increased this complex by almost
threefold (Fig. 3). In contrast, in Lyn
/
B cells SHP-1
was neither constitutively nor inducibly associated with
CD22, the amount of the complex being at least an order
of magnitude less than in Lyn+/+ cells (Fig. 3). Thus, in
Lyn
/
B cells, CD22 is not phosphorylated at tyrosines
appropriate for the recruitment of SHP-1, accounting for
its inability to inhibit mIg signaling.

antiphosphotyrosine, and proteins with lower molecular weights were
immunoblotted with anti-SHP-1, which was detected by ECL. (B) The
ratio of the intensity of the antiphosphotyrosine and anti-SHP-1 signals at
each time point was determined by densitometric analysis, which permitted a comparison of the relative association of phosphorylated CD22 with

Discussion |
The mIg-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of CD22
(Fig. 2) leading to the recruitment of SHP-1 (Fig. 3) and
inhibition of mIg signaling, as exemplified by an impaired
[Ca2+]i response (Fig. 1), requires the presence of Lyn. Loss
of this function of Lyn may be the basis for the hyperactive
B cell response of Lyn-deficient B cells in vitro (24), and
may contribute to the production of autoantibodies in
vivo. The loss of Fc
RIIB1 inhibitory function, which is
also a characteristic of the Lyn-deficient B cell (5, 23), is
less likely to contribute to the phenotype of Lyn
/
mice,
as mice lacking Fc
RIIB1 have more modest changes in B
cell function in vivo and in vitro (25), reflecting the negative regulatory role of this receptor in maintenance rather than in the initiation of the B cell response to antigen.
This study demonstrates that Lyn, although largely redundant for positive regulation of mIg signaling, is irreplaceable for suppressive signaling via CD22. The former
observation could have been anticipated based on studies of
the activation of other src-related kinases (such as Blk and
Fyn), by mIg in mammalian B cells (24), and from the finding of Syk-dependent activation of phospholipase C-
in
chicken DT40 cells lacking Lyn (22). Thus, the association of Lyn with CD22 (26) may have the unique functional
consequence of mediating the phosphorylation of specific
tyrosines which recruit SHP-1. Consistent with this possibility is the preference of Lyn for phosphopeptides having
the consensus sequence shown in Fig. 4 (30). The three
phosphopeptides of CD22 previously shown to bind SHP-1
and to activate its phosphatase function (15) all share with
this consensus sequence an acidic amino acid at the +4 position, and leucine at the
3 position; of the three CD22 phosphopeptides not interacting with SHP-1, only one has
aspartate at +4, and none has the leucine at
3 (Fig. 4).
Presumably another tyrosine kinase(s) is responsible for the
constitutive phosphorylation of the tyrosines of CD22 in
the Lyn
/
B cells that do not mediate the binding of
SHP-1 (Fig. 2). Although this study has not addressed the
role of these other phosphotyrosines, the absence of any effect on Ca2+ signaling when CD22 is cross-linked to mIg
on Lyn-deficient B cells indicates that they do not engage
intracellular proteins that augment this early cellular response. Thus, these studies fail to support a role for CD22
in the positive regulation of B cell activation, even when
interaction with SHP-1 does not occur.

In the B cell, tyrosine kinases have both positive and
negative effects on cellular activation through the phosphorylation of membrane proteins with distinct regulatory functions. The phosphorylation of the Ig-
-Ig-
heterodimer
of the antigen receptor complex and of CD19 promotes
the activation of the B cell by recruiting enzymes such as
Syk, Vav, and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase. Conversely, the phosphorylation of the Fc
RIIB1 and CD22 recruits
the phosphatases, SHIP and SHP-1, for suppression of cellular stimulation. Thus, ligating the antigen receptor, even
when sufficient stimulus is provided for activation of a tyrosine kinase, does not necessarily lead to cellular activation. Rather, this stimulus creates the potential for either
activation or suppression, with the outcome determined by
presence or absence of the ligands for the regulatory membrane proteins, CD19, CD22, and Fc
RIIB1.
The autoimmunity that occurs when either Lyn or SHP-1
is deleted is more striking than the modest occurrence of
autoantibodies that is observed when CD22 expression by
B cells is ablated. Although the absence of any one of these
three molecules would have a similar effect on the B cell by
promoting signaling through mIg, Lyn and SHP-1 are expressed in other hematopoietic cells in which they have
important functions. Therefore, for the production of
pathogenic autoantibodies, impaired regulation of B cells
alone (as occurs in Cd22
/
mice) may not be sufficient,
and significant autoimmunity may require dysregulated signaling in the several cell types that cooperate in the immune response.
