T cell costimulation
What is meant by “costimulation”?
How does one define T cell activation?
Observation: Signaling through the TCR is notsufficient to drive IL-2 production and T cell proliferation.Some other signal is needed.
“Signal 2” “Costimulation”
} Ability to become an effector cell
In the absence of costimulation, activation of the T cell through the TCR results in a failure to proliferate and the induction of anergy.
IL-2
Anergy
TCR signal only TCR + costimulation
Exogenously supplied IL-2
Anergic state can be “outgrown” by culture in the presence of IL-2 over time.
(Jenkins and Schwartz. J Exp Med. 1987)
What drives/allows IL-2 production during T cell:APC interaction?
CD28 Originally referred to as a Tp44, and implicated for its role in T cell:APC adhesion. (Linsley et al. PNAS. 1990)
CD28 when binds its ligand, B7, transmits an intracellular signal via its cytoplasmic tail.YXXM
IL-2
“Costimulation” results in stabilizing of IL-2 mRNA and transcription from IL-2 promoter. (Fraser et al. Science. 1991)

More about CD28
CD28 - constitutively expressed on the surface of T cells.In mice, all T cells express CD28. In humans, mostT cells (except for a sub-pop. of CD8+) express CD28.
B7-2
B7-1
CTLA-4 - higher specificity, higher affinity for B7-1. Not expressed at surface of naive T cell. Sequestered intracellularly, delivered to synapse quickly afterT cell activation.

Proteins implicated in CD28 costimulation
TCR Proximal Effects mediated by CD28:B7 interaction
(Michel et al. Immunity. 2001)
Jurkat T cells expressing no CD28, wild type CD28 or a CD28 cytoplasmic tail deletion mutant were incubated with 531-B7 cells expressing MHC class II and B7.1 and assayed for conjugate formation.

Signaling through CD28:B7 augments TCR generated signal
PLC and SLP-76 show CD28 costimulation dependent phosphorylation following TCR signaling.

Signaling through CD28:B7 augments TCR generated signal
PLC and SLP-76 show CD28 costimulation dependent phosphorylation following TCR signaling.
(Michel et al. Immunity. 2001)
Phosphorylation of ZAP-70 and LAT is not dependant on CD28 costimulation
Signaling through CD28:B7 augments TCR generated signal
Thus, the lack of signaling from CD28 selectively affects TCR-directed phosphorylation of PLC1 and SLP-76 while sparing other more proximal events such as the phosphorylation of ZAP-70 and its substrate LAT.

CD28 Signals independently of TCR
VAV and SLP-76 transfected into COScells and ligation of CD28
Molecules involved in TCR signaling and CD28 signal are inseparable.
CD28 is normally incapable of deliveringa signal when crosslinked on T cells without TCR signaling.
VAV and SLP-76 transfection into non-hematapoietic cells (COS) completes theT cell NF-AT signal transduction pathway.

Which of these functions is the second signal?
Is there “a second signal” per se, or is there only costimulation/coactivation?
