IL-16 has been reported as a modulator of T cell activation and was shown to function as chemoattractant factor. The chemotactic activity of IL-16 depends on the expression of CD4 on the surface of target cells, but the intracellular signaling pathways are only now being deciphered. This report describes IL-16 as an additional activator of the stress-activated protein kinase (SAPK) pathway in CD4+ macrophages. Treatment of these cells with recombinant expressed IL-16 leads to the phosphorylation of SEK-1, resulting in activation of the SAPKs p46 and p54. IL-16 stimulation also leads to the phosphorylation of c-Jun and p38 MAPK (mitogen-activated protein kinase), without inducing MAPK-family members ERK-1 and ERK-2. Interestingly, the IL-16-mediated activation of SAPKs and p38 MAPK in macrophages alone induces no detectable apoptotic cell death. These observations suggest specific regulatory functions of IL-16 distinct from the proinflammatory cytokines TNF-alpha and IL-1beta.
