CD22 is a B cell-restricted glycoprotein involved in cell adhesion and
signaling. Since CD22 is likely to play an important role in interactions
between B cells and other cells, and in regulating signaling thresholds, we
characterized the expression of murine CD22 during different stages of B
cell development. In contrast to previous reports, we show that CD22 is
expressed on B cell progenitors prior to expression of IgM. IL-7-responsive
B cell precursors from the fetal liver and early B lineage cells
(B220+IgM-) from the bone marrow both express a low density of surface
CD22. The majority of the earliest B cell progenitors (B220+IgM-CD43+) in
the bone marrow, however, do not express CD22. As B cells mature, the
density of CD22 molecules on the cell surface increases. B220brightIgM+
bone marrow cells express high levels of CD22, as do splenic B cells. The
correlation of CD22 levels with B cell maturation is replicated in an in
vitro culture system, which distinguishes stages of B cell development
based on function. Following activation of mature resting splenic B cells
with anti-mu mAb or lipopolysaccharide (LPS), levels of CD22 decrease.
Finally, we show that the addition of anti-CD22 mAb augments the
proliferative response of both anti-mu- and LPS-stimulated B cells,
suggesting a role for CD22 in diverse signaling pathways.
