Regulation of interleukin 2 gene expression by CD28 costimulation in mouse T-cell clones: both nuclear and cytoplasmic RNAs are regulated with complex kinetics

T-cell receptor (TCR) signalling is required to induce expression of the interleukin 2 (IL-2) gene in mouse T cells. Additional costimulation through CD28 augments IL-2 production by 30- to 100-fold. Using IL-2 RNA accumulation and transcription reporter assays, we have addressed potential mechanisms of CD28 regulation at various time points of stimulation. The kinetic regulation of IL-2 mRNA by TCR and CD28 signals is complex: (i) at the earliest detectable time point, CD28 signalling causes a 20-fold increase compared with TCR signalling alone; (ii) both groups rapidly accumulate mRNA for the first 4 h; (iii) IL-2 mRNA then disappears from cells stimulated through the TCR alone but plateaus or increases slightly in cells costimulated through CD28; and (iv) after 8 h, the mRNA disappears in cultures with the anti- CD28 antibody. Transcription reporter assays did not show a specific effect of CD28 signalling on IL-2 enhancer driven transcription. This was true for either a 353- or a 1.9-kb enhancer, over a broad range of kinetics and TCR occupancy, and with several TCR signal mimics. The early component of CD28 costimulation is nuclear, however, since the initial enhancement of mRNA is also found in unspliced IL-2 RNA. Between 2 and 6 h, there is a marked difference in the rates of decay of IL-2 mRNA in the presence and absence of the CD28 signalling. Rapid decay of IL-2 mRNA commences after 8 h even in the presence of CD28 signals, although the decay occurs at a rate slower than that seen after 4 h of anti-TCR stimulation alone.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
