Exposure of human KC to IFN-gamma increases their susceptibility to lysis by CTL. The mechanism of this enhanced lysis was investigated by analyzing interactions of IFN-gamma-treated and nontreated cultured KC with allogeneic class I-specific CTL clones. rIFN-gamma treatment augmented KC lysis in a time- and dose-dependent manner. Increased lysis of IFN-KC was detected after only 2 h of IFN-gamma treatment and was maximal by 12 h. Enhanced lysis of IFN-KC was Ag-specific, inasmuch as nonantigenic IFN-KC were not lysed either directly or as bystanders during the lysis of antigenic KC. Parallel immunofluorescence and cytotoxicity assays of KC treated with IFN-gamma for various intervals revealed a direct correlation between the degree of increased KC lysis and levels of cell surface ICAM-1 (CD54), but not of specific alloantigen or beta 2-microglobulin. Lysis of nontreated KC was blocked by mAb against class I or CD3, but not by mAb against ICAM-1 or LFA-1. In contrast, lysis of IFN-KC was partially inhibited by anti-ICAM-1 or anti-LFA-1 mAb, but resisted inhibition by anti-class I mAb except in the presence of anti-ICAM-1. These results indicate that both ICAM-1/LFA-1 and Ag/CD3-TcR interactions are important for Ag-specific lysis of IFN-KC, whereas lysis of nontreated KC depends on Ag/CD3-TcR but not ICAM-1/LFA-1 interactions. Equivalent inhibition of IFN-KC lysis by mAb against ICAM-1 or LFA-1 suggests that ICAM-1 is the only LFA-1 ligand involved in enhanced IFN-KC lysis. Furthermore, enhanced CTL lysis of KC after short-term IFN-gamma treatment can be explained solely on the basis of ICAM-1 induction, because all of the increase in specific lysis associated with IFN-gamma treatment could be blocked by mAb that block ICAM-1/LFA-1 interactions.
