摘要

VCAM-1 is one of the main ligands of VLA-4, an integrin that is highly expressed on the surface of mature B cells. Here we find that coexpression of VCAM-1 on an antigen-bearing membrane facilitates B-cell activation. Firstly, this is achieved by mediating B-cell tethering, which in turn increases the likelihood of a B cell to be activated. Secondly, VLA-4 synergizes with the B-cell receptor (BCR), providing B cells with tight adhesion and enhanced signalling. This dual role of VCAM-1 in promoting B-cell activation is predominantly effective when the affinity of the BCR for the antigen is low. In addition, we show that the VCAM-1 ectodomain alone is sufficient to carry out this function. However, it requires the transmembrane domain to segregate properly into a docking structure characteristic of the B-cell immunological synapse (IS). These results show that the VLA-4/VCAM-1 interaction during membrane antigen recognition enhances B-cell activation and this function appears to be independent of its final peripheral localization at the IS.
