Interferon-λ enhances the differentiation of naïve B-cells into plasmablasts via mTORC1 pathway


ABSTRACT: Type III interferon (IFN-λ) is known to be a potential immune modulator, but the mechanisms behind its immune-modulatory functions and its impact on plasmablast differentiation in humans, remain unknown. Human B-cells and their subtypes directly respond to IFN-λ. We performed B-cell transcriptome profiling to investigate the immune-modulatory role of IFN-λ in B-cells. We found that IFN-λ induced gene expression in B cells is steady, prolonged and importantly cell type-specific. Further, IFN-λ enhances the mTORC1 (mammalian/mechanistic target 34 of rapamycin complex 1) pathway in the B-cell receptor-activated B-cells (BCR/anti-IgM). The engagement of mTORC1 by BCR and IFN-lambda induces the cell cycle progress in B-cells. Subsequently, IFN-λ boosts the differentiation of naïve B-cells into plasmablast upon activation and the cells gain effector functions such as cytokine release (IL-6, IL-10) and antibody production. Our study shows how IFN-λ systematically boosts the differentiation of naïve B-cells into plasmablasts by enhancing the mTORC1 pathway and cell cycle progression in activated B-cells, which is a previously unknown immune modulatory role of IFN-λ.
