Detection of CD160 antibody in Human Blood Lymphocytes antibody by Flow Cytometry.

Detection of CD160 in Human Blood Lymphocytes by Flow Cytometry.

Human peripheral blood lymphocytes were stained with Mouse Anti-Human CD160 Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB6700) followed by Allophycocyanin-conjugated Anti-Mouse IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # F0101B) and Mouse Anti-Human CD8a PE-conjugated Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # FAB1509P). Quadrant markers were set based on control antibody staining (Catalog # MAB0041).

Triggering of CD160-GPI is consistent with a positive co-stimulation role. A) Triggering of primary CD4+ T-cells with either plate-bound anti-CD3 (1 μg/ml) and anti-CD28 (0.5 μg/ml) or anti-CD3, anti-CD28 and HVEM-Fc (0.2 μg/ml) in the presence or absence of either anti-HVEM (left panel) or anti-CD160 clone CL1-R2 (right panel). IL-2 was measured in the supernatant by ELISA at 24 h post stimulation. Iso-IgG represents the matched isotype control antibody. P values were determined by two-tailed paired t test (data from three independent healthy donors). B) Left panels: Surface expression of CD160-GPI and CD160-TM on Jurkat-NFAT-Luc cells stably-transfected with CD160 plasmids. Mock-transfected cells (light grey histograms in middle and right panels) were used to set the positive and negative gates for FACS. CD160-TM is weakly detected with CD160-GPI antibodies (BY55 clone). Right panels: Quantitative RT-PCR for CD160-GPI and CD160-TM isoforms in Jurkat cells over-expressing either CD160-GPI or CD160-TM, values are relative to the house-keeping GAPDH gene transcripts (One representative experiment, n = 2). Non-transfected Jurkat (control cells) and HeLa cells were used as additional negative controls for CD160 expression. The left graph represents results with a set of Taqman probes that were not isoform selective and hybrdize both CD160-GPI and CD160-TM to demonstrate similar RNA expression levels, whereas the right graph used a set of probes that were CD160-TM specific to confirm the exclusive expression of the different CD160 isoforms in the two cell lines. C) Simultaneous triggering of TCR and CD160 using magnetic Dynal beads coated with anti-CD3, anti-CD28 and either HVEM-Fc (left panels), CD160 monoclonal antibodies (right panels) or their matched IgGs. Cell activation was monitored by measuring the absolute luciferase counts. Control cells are original Jurkat-NFAT-Luc cells non-transfected with either of the CD160 isoforms. NS: non-stimulated. P values were calculated by non-parametric two-tail t test (Mann–Whitney).

Differential inhibition of HVEM/CD160 binding with benchmark tool antibodies. TRF assay measuring the potency of different antibodies to inhibit the binding of recombinant human HVEM-Fc chimera to CD160+ CHO-K1 cells. A) CD160 monoclonal antibodies inhibit binding of HVEM-Fc to both CD160-GPI and CD160-TM isoforms. B) Polyclonal HVEM (left panel) and monoclonal HVEM (right panel) antibodies both enhance binding of HVEM-Fc to CD160-TM isoform. The polyclonal anti-HVEM inhibits HVEM-Fc binding to CD160-GPI (left panel). Antibody concentrations are plotted on the X axis whereas, the calculated percentage of inhibition of binding is plotted on the Y axis. Matched isotype control antibody for each individual antibody candidate was also used in the assay (empty circles and squares). CTL = control, mAb = monoclonal antibody, pAb = polyclonal antibody.

Background: CD160

CD160 (also BY55) is a 27 kDa member of the immunoglobulin superfamily of molecules.  It is expressed on select hematopoietic cell types, including CD56dim CD16+ cytotoxic NK cells, CD8+ CD28- effector T cells, delta/ gamma T cells, and restricted CD4+ T cells.  It is a receptor for HLA-C molecules, and its engagement induces CD160+ NK cells to both secrete IFN-gamma plus TNF-alpha and initiate a cytotoxic program.  Human CD160 was originally identified as a 155 amino acid (aa) proprotein (aa 27‑181).  It contains a 132 aa mature region (aa 27-159) and a C-terminal prosegment that is cleaved to create a GPI linkage. The mature region possesses one
V‑type Ig-like domain (aa 27-122).  CD160 is found as a soluble, disulfide-linked 80 kDa multimer (likely trimer) that is generated by proteolysis of the GPI-linked form. This 80 kDa form, plus others, are highly resistant to reduction. There is also a 100-110 kDa multimeric transmembrane (TM) form that is associated with activated NK cells. It contains a 55 aa substitution for Gly180-Leu181, and shows a 20 aa TM segment between aa 163-182.  The TM form appears to have a splice variant that lacks aa 25-133.  Over aa 27-159, human CD160 shares 62% aa identity with mouse CD160.
