Surface-expressed CD69 is a recently recognized activation marker for basophils and is reported to be strongly induced in vitro by IL-3. In this study, we investigated whether IgE- and high-affinity receptor for IgE (FcepsilonRI)-dependent stimuli can affect basophil CD69 expression. Highly purified basophils were cultured for 24 h in the presence of anti-FcepsilonRI alpha-chain mAb, CRA-1 and IL-3, and surface CD69 expression was analyzed by flow cytometry. CRA-1 mAb at 1 ng/ml or lower concentrations, levels too low to provoke direct histamine release, dose-dependently enhanced surface CD69 expression in the presence of IL-3, although low-dose CRA-1 mAb failed to induce CD69 expression in the absence of IL-3. Recombinant Der f 2 at 10 to 100 pg/ml enhanced CD69 levels in the presence of IL-3 in basophils from mite-sensitive subjects. These results suggest that allergens may influence basophil CD69 expression even when the levels of the antigens are too low to trigger direct degranulation. Upregulated CD69 expression on locally accumulated basophils in bronchial asthma may be attributed at least in part to a combination of local cytokines, especially IL-3, plus exposure to low levels of IgE-crosslinking allergens.
