A large number of animal models revealed that IL-3 plays an important role for the development of T and B cell-mediated autoimmune diseases. However, little is known about the expression and regulation of IL-3 receptors in human T and B cells and how IL-3 modulates the activation and survival of these cells. We show that the IL-3 receptor CD123 is substantially upregulated on proliferating CD4(+) and CD8(+) T as well as B cells. Upregulation of CD123 differs between various activators and can be further modulated by cytokines. Exposure of human T and B cells to IL-3 enhances proliferation and survival. IL-3 also induces a shift towards secretion of proinflammatory cytokines in T and B cells and reduces the expression of IL-10 in B cells. Thus IL-3 may have proinflammatory and immunostimulatory properties also in human autoimmune diseases.
