CD74 is a cell-surface receptor for the cytokine macrophage migration inhibitory
factor. Macrophage migration inhibitory factor binding to CD74 induces its
intramembrane cleavage and the release of its cytosolic intracellular domain
(CD74-ICD), which regulates cell survival. In the present study, we characterized
the transcriptional activity of CD74-ICD in chronic lymphocytic B cells. We show
that following CD74 activation, CD74-ICD interacts with the transcription factors
RUNX (Runt related transcription factor) and NF-?B and binds to proximal and
distal regulatory sites enriched for genes involved in apoptosis, immune
response, and cell migration. This process leads to regulation of expression of
these genes. Our results suggest that identifying targets of CD74 will help in
understanding of essential pathways regulating B-cell survival in health and
disease.
