IFN-gamma has been shown to either stimulate or inhibit Ig secretion. No studies have yet addressed the basis for these seemingly conflicting properties nor whether IFN-gamma acted directly at the level of the B cell to mediate its effects. Thus, we studied the ability of IFN-gamma to regulate Ig secretion in sort-purified, resting murine B cells that were &gt;99% Ig+, activated either through membrane Ig using unconjugated or dextran-conjugated anti-IgD antibodies (alphadelta-dex) or through CD40 using soluble or membrane CD40 ligand (CD40L). B cells activated with alphadelta-dex proliferated but do not secrete Ig, even in the presence of IL-1 + IL-2. We demonstrate that IFN-gamma only when added subsequent to B cell stimulation with alphadelta-dex, but not unconjugated anti-IfD antibody, plus IL-1 + IL-2 induces up to 100-fold enhancements in Ig secretion and in the numbers of Ig-secreting cells. The predominant Ig isotype secreted is IgM, with IgG3 and IgG2a comprising the majority of non-IgM antibody. IFN-gamma must act in concert with IL-2 for stimulation of Ig secretion. Further, IFN-gamma synergizes with IL-3 + granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor for induction of Ig synthesis. IFN-gamma also enhances IgA syntheses by transforming growth factor-beta-induced membrane IgA+ cells. By contrast, 125IIFN-gamma fails to stimulate Ig secretion in B cells activated with CD40L in the presence or absence of IL-1 + IL-2 or IL-4. However, the combination of CD40L and alphabeta-dex is strongly synergistic for IFN-gamma-induced Ig secretion. Thus, these data establish that IFN-gamma can act directly on the B cell to induce Ig synthesis without the participation of any other cell and demonstrates that the mode of activation of the B cell plays an important role in directing the action of IFN-gamma.
