Engagement of the B cell receptor (BCR) initiates
multiple signaling cascades which mediate different biological
responses, depending on the stage of B cell differentiation, antigen
binding affinity, and duration of stimulation. Aggregation of
co-receptors such as CD19 with the antigen receptor has been suggested
to modulate the signals necessary for the development and functioning
of the humoral immune system. In this study, we demonstrate that
engagement of the antigen receptor on peripheral blood B cells, but not
naïve splenic B lymphocytes, leads to rapid phosphorylation of
signal transducers and activators of transcription 1 (STAT1) on Tyr-701 and Ser-727. Interestingly, phosphorylation on tyrosine diminished with
increased stimulation, whereas serine phosphorylation correlated directly with the level of BCR cross-linking. In contrast,
phosphorylation of STAT3 occurs exclusively on serine and is sensitive
to inhibitors of the PI3-kinase and the ERK1/2 pathways. Finally, we
show that co-ligation of CD19 with the BCR results in increased
tyrosine phosphorylation of STAT1 relative to BCR cross-linking alone, establishing CD19 as a positive modulator of BCR-mediated STAT activation.
