The production of "natural" autoantibodies or antibodies, i.e., Ig that bind a
variety of self- and/or exogenous Ag and arise independently of known
immunization, is though to be a feature of CD5+ B lymphocytes. To determine
whether other lymphocyte subsets exist that might be committed to the production
of natural antibodies, human peripheral blood B cells were sorted on the basis of
surface CD5 expression and differential expression of surface CD45RA
(CD5+CD45RAintermediate(int), CD5-CD45RAlow(lo), and CD5-CD45RAhigh(hi)), and
analyzed for the type of Ig produced after EBV infection and culture. Like their
CD5+ counterparts, most CD5-CD45RAlo B lymphocytes were precursors of cells
producing IgM, a major proportion of which displayed the Ag-binding features of
natural antibodies. In contrast, CD5-CD45RAhi B cells comprised a high frequency
of IgG-producing cell precursors, possibly including memory B lymphocytes. Six of
seven IgM mAb generated from sorted CD5-CD45RAlo B cells and three of four IgM
mAb from sorted CD5+ B cells were polyreactive, binding with different affinities
(Kd, 10(-5) to 10(-8) M) to two or more Ag; the remaining mAb from CD5-CD45RAlo
and the mAb from CD5+ B cells each bound to a single Ag (Kd, 10(-7) to 10(-8) M),
beta-galactosidase and ssDNA, respectively. CD5-CD45RAlo B cells account for 4.1
+/- 1.2% (mean +/- SD in 11 healthy subjects; CD5+ B cells, 23.3 +/- 6.9%) of
total B lymphocytes and display the features of quiescent cells. In a given
individual, the number of CD5-CD45RAlo B cells remains constant over time.
CD5-CD45RAlo and CD5+ B cells bear surface CD11b and CD14, at densities and/or
frequencies apparently higher than those of CD5-CD45RAhi B lymphocytes. Despite
their surface CD5- phenotype, CD45RAlo B cells express CD5+ mRNA at levels
comparable with those of CD5+ B lymphocytes, whereas CD5-CD45RAhi B cells express
only trace amounts of CD5 mRNA. The commitment to natural antibody production and
the degree of CD5 mRNA expression suggest that the newly defined CD5-CD45RAlo B
cell subset is related to CD5+ B lymphocytes, and may constitute the human
homologue of the mouse Ly-1-"sister" B cell population.
