B cells are induced to express CD95 upon interaction with T cells. This interaction renders the B cells sensitive to CD95-mediated apoptosis, but ligation of proviability surface receptors is able to inhibit apoptosis induction. MHC class II is a key molecule required for Ag presentation to Th cells, productive T cell-B cell interaction, and B cell activation. We demonstrate here for the first time that MHC class II ligation also confers a rapid resistance to CD95-induced apoptosis, an affect that does not require de novo protein synthesis. Signaling through class II molecules blocks the activation of caspase 8, but does not affect the association of CD95 and Fas-associated death domain-containing protein. MHC class II ligation thus blocks proximal signaling events in the CD95-mediated apoptotic pathway.
