Multiparametric flow cytometry analysis of B cell trafficking enables the identification of immunoglobulin isotype-specific migration differences among EBV-infected and uninfected subpopulations

Original language description

13th World Immune Regulation Meeting, 06 - 09 April 2019, Davos, Switzerland – poster: Viral infection of cells modifies metabolism and functions including their maturation, phenotypes, and migration profiles. EBV infection targets predominantly B cells that differ from uninfected counterparts. Various EBV infection stages are associated with distinct expression of virus-specific antigens. Nevertheless, latently infected cells are difficult to identify by phenotypic markers. Combination of in situ hybridization using specific probes with the antibody staining of surface or intracellular markers by flow cytometry enables analysis of viral presence in millions of cells of several subsets. Moreover, the trafficking behavior could be characterized by staining for chemokine receptors, integrins or selectins. B cells were labeled for the presence of EBV (EBER1 probe) together with staining for B cell maturation markers (CD19, CD27, CD38, CD138), immunoglobulin isotypes (IgA, IgG, IgM, IgD), and surface homing molecules (a4b7 and a4b1, L-selectin,CCR5, CCR7, CCR9, and CCR10). Using these approaches we compared EBV-infected and uninfected B cells from healthy subjects. EBV-infected cells are predominantly IgA-positive memory B cells or plasmablasts. The expression of all chemokine receptors was increased in sIgG+ EBV+ B cell subpopulations, whereas sIgA+ EBV-infected cells increasingly expressed only CCR5 and CCR7. CCR10 was not changed and CCR9+ and α4β1+ subpopulation in sIgA+ EBV-infected cells was absent. The differences in the sIgA+ and sIgG+ subpopulations in EBV-infected B cells indicate distinct migration patterns in contrast to their healthy counterparts which could contribute in genetically predisposed subjects under various environmental factors to the development of symptoms as proposed for some autoimmune diseases and tumors.
