The presence of membrane bound CD99 ligands on leukocyte surface

Abstract Objective CD99, a leukocyte surface molecule, reportedly plays an important role in several cellular processes. However, the role of CD99 in T cell regulation remains unclear, as the CD99 ligand associated with T-cell regulation has not yet been identified. Our previous study showed that re...

description Abstract Objective CD99, a leukocyte surface molecule, reportedly plays an important role in several cellular processes. However, the role of CD99 in T cell regulation remains unclear, as the CD99 ligand associated with T-cell regulation has not yet been identified. Our previous study showed that recombinant CD99 bound to CD99 ligands was expressed on monocytes, NK cells and dendritic cells. This interaction regulates the expression of IL-6 and TNF-α in CD3 + T cells following T cell activation. In the present study, we confirmed the presence of CD99 ligands in immune cells. Results A recombinant CD99-human IgG fusion protein, CD99HIgG, was produced and used to search for CD99 ligand expression in various hematopoietic cell lines. Among several cell lines, THP-1 monocytic cell line showed strong positive reaction for CD99HIgG, and CD99 and CD99 ligand complexes were pulled-down using a DTSSP cross-linker. The study demonstrated the presence of the membrane bound CD99 ligand, and CD99 ligand candidates were identified via LC–MS/MS. These results may be useful to further identify the CD99 ligands, and to fully comprehend the role of CD99 in immunoregulation.
