title: Modulation of CD157 expression in multi-lineage myeloid differentiation of promyelocytic cell lines.
abstract: CD157/BST-1 is expressed on mature myeloid cells but not on their precursors in vivo. Also CD38, a homologous gene to CD157, is upregulated in promyelocytic HL-60 cells by the monocyte and granulocyte differentiation-inducing 1alpha,25dihydroxyvitamin D3 (VD3) and all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA), respectively. We have examined whether CD157 expression is upregulated when the promyeloid HL-60 and/or U937 cells are induced to differentiate into mature phenotypes in vitro. VD3 treatment irreversibly upregulated the expression of CD157 in HL-60 cells but not in U937 cells in a time- and concentration-dependent manner when analyzed by flow cytometry, immunoblotting and/or RT-PCR. Different monocyte and granulocyte lineage inducers induced CD157 expression to varying extents while the macrophage differentiation-inducing phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) induced its down-regulation. Time-kinetics of VD3 treatment of HL-60 cells showed that the appearance of CD157 and CD11b (a differentiation marker) antigens were not substantial up to 24 hours but increased subsequently although the appearance of CD38 became significant within 6 hours. Two-color staining of VD3-treated HL-60 cells displayed an apparently linear correlation between CD157 and CD11b expression. Dibutyryl cAMP (cAMP agonist) and forskolin (cAMP-increasing agent) augmented the VD3-dependent induction of CD157 and CD11b expression while PGE1 (cAMP-decreasing agent) inhibited it, suggesting the involvement of a cAMP-dependent mechanism in VD3-induced CD157 upregulation. Co-treatment of HL-60 cells with VD3 plus TNF-alpha or ara-C produced an additive effect on CD157 upregulation. The upregulated CD157 in the VD3-differentiated HL-60 cells was able to activate CD157-dependent tyrosine kinase signal when cross-linked with anti-CD157 antibody.
