Soluble ULBP2 does not promote tumor growth. (A) Flow cytometric evaluation of GFP expression in B16BL6-ULBP2 cells. Black and gray histograms represent unstained B16BL6-ULBP2 cells and unstained wild-type B16BL6 cells, respectively. (B) Flow cytometric evaluation of ULBP2 expression in B16BL6-ULBP2 cells. Black and gray histograms represent cells stained with PE-conjugated anti-ULBP2/5/6 antibody and PE-conjugated isotype control antibody, respectively. (C) Measurement of soluble ULBP2 concentrations in the culture supernatants of B16BL6-ULBP2 cells. Cells (1.0 × 104 or 5.0 × 104) were seeded in 24-well plates and cultured. Supernatants were collected at 24 and 48 h, and soluble ULBP2 levels were quantified using ELISA (n = 3). (D) Cell proliferation curves of B16BL6-ULBP2 cells seeded in 6-well plates (5.0 × 104 cells/well). Cells were harvested and counted every 24 h for 5 days using a hemocytometer (n = 6). (E) Specific growth rates (μ) and doubling times (Td) of cells calculated as described in (D). (F) Tumor growth curves of syngeneic subcutaneous tumors in C57BL/6 mice (n = 5) injected with B16BL6-mock or B16BL6-ULBP2 cells (1.0 × 106). Tumor volumes were calculated as described in (E). (G) Tumor weights measured on day 14 for the mice in (F). (H) Soluble ULBP2 concentrations in plasma collected on day 14, measured using ELISA from the mice in (F). In (C–F), data are presented as the mean ± SEM. ** p < 0.01; **** p < 0.0001; ns: not significant (two-tailed Welch’s t-test for C; Mann–Whitney U test for (D–F)). In (G,H), individual values are shown with the mean ± SEM. ** p < 0.01; ns: not significant (Mann–Whitney U test).

Background: ULBP-2/5/6

ULBPs activate multiple signaling pathways in primary NK cells, resulting in the production of cytokines and chemokines. Binding of ULBPs ligands to NKG2D induces calcium mobilization and activation of the JAK2, STAT5, ERK and PI3K kinase/Akt signal transduction pathway. The name ULBP derives from the original identification of three proteins, ULBP-1, -2, and -3, as ligands for the human cytomegalovirus glycoprotein UL16; they were designated UL16 binding proteins (ULBP). The genes for ULBPs reside in a cluster of ten related genes, six of which encode potentially functional glycoproteins. ULBP-2 has also been described under the names RaeT1H (retinoic acid early transcript), NKG2DL2, and ALCAN-alpha. ULBP-5 also known as RaeT1G and ULBP-6 also known as RaeT1L. These proteins are distantly related to MHC class I proteins, but they possess only the alpha 1 and alpha 2 Ig-like domains, and they have no capacity to bind peptide or interact with beta 2‑microglobulin. Some family members, including ULBP-2, are anchored to the membrane via a GPI-linkage, whereas others have transmembrane domains. Engagement of NKG2D results in the activation of cytolytic activity and/or cytokine production by these effector cells. The ULBPs are expressed on some tumor cells and have been implicated in tumor surveillance. Over aa 26-217, ULBP-2 shares 92% and 95% aa sequence identity with the human ULBP-5 and ULBP-6, respectively.
