Figure Legend Snippet: Fig.4: Decreased capacity of L3P-BLK to facilitate B cell receptor-mediated HLA-DR/peptide presentation to CD4+ T -cells. Tetanus toxoid (TT) protein is complexed with anti-IgG F(ab’)2 fragments in ratio 1:2 or 1:4 for 6 hours at 4C (using streptavidin/ biotin conjugation). Paired human B-LCLs expressing common or L3P-BLK variant are loaded (4hrs, 37°C) with 0, 1, or 10 μg anti- IgG-TT complexes. Next, human TT peptide/MHCII-specific CD4+ T-cells are added for co-culture with the B-LCLs (1:1 ratio, O/N, 37°C). B-LCL mediated activation of antigen-specific CD4+ T-cells was measured by analysis of induced CD154 (CD40L) expression. A. CD40L staining in absence of exogenous antigen is set as background levels for both B-LCLs expressing common BLK (upper panel) or L3P-BLK (lower panel). Representative of 3 independent experiments. B. L3P-BLK expressing B-LCL cells (grey) are less able to induce activation of antigen-specific CD4+ T-cells (CD40L high phenotype) compared to common BLK-expressing B-LCL cells (black). Experiments performed on B-LCLs of three independent donors, in at least three independent experiments. Data represented as mean +/- SEM. C. Expression of L3P-BLK does not affect expression of class II MHC molecules (HLA-DR) and co-stimulatory molecules (CD40, CD86, and CD54) in B-LCLs. Data of 3 independent experiments, represented as mean +/- SEM. *P-value <0.05, **P-value <0.01, Two- tailed Wilcoxon-signed rank test.
