Interactions between dendritic cells (DC) and T cells are known to involve the delivery of signals in both directions. We sought to characterize the effects on human DC of contact with different subsets of activated CD4+ T cells. The results showed that interaction with CD25(high)CD4+ regulatory T cells (Tregs) caused DC to take on very different properties than contact with naive or memory phenotype T cells. Whereas non-Tregs stimulated DC maturation, culture with Tregs produced DC with a mixed phenotype. By many criteria, Tregs inhibited DC maturation, inducing down-regulation of costimulatory molecules and T cell stimulatory activity. However, DC exposed to Tregs also showed some changes typically associated with DC maturation, namely, increased expression of CCR7 and MHC class II molecules, and gained the ability to migrate in response to the CCR7 ligand CCL19. Both soluble factors and cell-associated molecules were shown to be involved in Treg modulation of DC, with lymphocyte activation gene 3 (LAG-3) playing a predominant role in driving maturation-associated changes. The data show that Tregs induce the generation of semimature DC with the potential to migrate into lymphoid organs, suggesting a possible mechanism by which Tregs down-modulate immune responses. 相似文献

Despite the immunogenicity of glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), immune-mediated eradication of these tumors remains deficient.
Regulatory T cells (Tregs) in the blood and within the tumor microenvironment of GBM patients are known to contribute to their
dismal immune responses. Here, we determined which chemokine secreted by gliomas can preferentially induce Treg recruitment
and migration. In the malignant human glioma cell lines D-54, U-87, U-251, and LN-229, the chemokines CCL22 and CCL2 were
detected by intracellular cytokine analysis. Furthermore, tumor cells from eight patients with GBM had a similar chemokine
expression profile. However, only CCL2 was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, indicating that CCL2 may be the
principal chemokine for Treg migration in GBM patients. Interestingly, the Tregs from GBM patients had significantly higher
expression levels of the CCL2 receptor CCR4 than did Tregs from healthy controls. Glioma supernatants and the recombinant
human chemokines CCL2 and CCL22 induced Treg migration and were blocked by antibodies to the chemokine receptors. Production
of CCL2 by glioma cells could also be mitigated by the chemotherapeutic agents temozolomide and carmustine [3-bis (2-chloroethyl)-1-nitrosourea].
Our results indicate that gliomas augment immunosuppression by selective chemokine-mediated recruitment of Tregs into the
tumor microenvironment and that modulating this interaction with chemotherapy could facilitate the development of novel immunotherapeutics
to malignant gliomas.

Background
Although evidence exists that regulatory T cells (Tregs) can suppress the effector phase of immune responses, it is clear that their major role is in suppressing T cell priming in secondary lymphoid organs. Recent experiments using two photon laser microscopy indicate that dendritic cells (DCs) are central to Treg cell function and that the in vivo mechanisms of T cell regulation are more complex than those described in vitro.Principal Findings
Here we have sought to determine whether and how modulation of Treg numbers modifies the lymph node (LN) microenvironment. We found that pro-inflammatory chemokines—CCL2 (MCP-1) and CCL3 (MIP-la)—are secreted in the LN early (24 h) after T cell activation, that this secretion is dependent on antigen-specific DC–T cell interactions, and that it was inversely related to the frequency of Tregs specific for the same antigen. Furthermore, we demonstrate that Tregs modify the chemoattractant properties of antigen-presenting DCs, which, as the frequency of Tregs increases, fail to produce CCL2 and CCL3 and to attract antigen-specific T cells.Conclusions
These results substantiate a major role of Tregs in LN patterning during antigen-specific immune responses. 相似文献4.

Infection with filarial parasites is associated with T cell hyporesponsiveness, which is thought to be partly mediated by their ability to induce regulatory T cells (Tregs) during human infections. This study investigates the functional capacity of Tregs from different groups of filarial patients to suppress filaria-specific immune responses during human filariasis. Microfilaremic (MF), chronic pathology (CP) and uninfected endemic normal (EN) individuals were selected in an area endemic for Brugia timori in Flores island, Indonesia. PBMC were isolated, CD4CD25(hi) cells were magnetically depleted and in vitro cytokine production and proliferation in response to B. malayi adult worm antigen (BmA) were determined in total and Treg-depleted PBMC. In MF subjects BmA-specific T and B lymphocyte proliferation as well as IFN-gamma, IL-13 and IL-17 responses were lower compared to EN and CP groups. Depletion of Tregs restored T cell as well as B cell proliferation in MF-positives, while proliferative responses in the other groups were not enhanced. BmA-induced IL-13 production was increased after Treg removal in MF-positives only. Thus, filaria-associated Tregs were demonstrated to be functional in suppressing proliferation and possibly Th2 cytokine responses to BmA. These suppressive effects were only observed in the MF group and not in EN or CP. These findings may be important when considering strategies for filarial treatment and the targeted prevention of filaria-induced lymphedema. 相似文献

Plasmin is a broad-spectrum protease and therefore needs to be tightly regulated. Active plasmin is formed from plasminogen, which is found in high concentrations in the blood and is converted by the plasminogen activators. In the circulation, high levels of α2-antiplasmin rapidly and efficiently inhibit plasmin activity. Certain myeloid immune cells have been shown to bind plasmin and plasminogen on their cell surface via proteins that bind to the plasmin(ogen) kringle domains. Our earlier work showed that T cells can activate plasmin but that they do not themselves express plasminogen. Here, we demonstrate that T cells express several known plasminogen receptors and that they bind plasminogen on their cell surface. We show T cell–bound plasminogen was converted to plasmin by plasminogen activators upon T cell activation. To examine functional consequences of plasmin generation by activated T cells, we investigated its effect on the chemokine, C-C motif chemokine ligand 21 (CCL21). Video microscopy and Western blotting confirmed that plasmin bound by human T cells cleaves CCL21 and increases the chemotactic response of monocyte-derived dendritic cells toward higher CCL21 concentrations along the concentration gradient by increasing their directional migration and track straightness. These results demonstrate how migrating T cells and potentially other activated immune cells may co-opt a powerful proteolytic system from the plasma toward immune processes in the peripheral tissues, where α2-antiplasmin is more likely to be absent. We propose that plasminogen bound to migrating immune cells may strongly modulate chemokine responses in peripheral tissues. 相似文献

Naturally occurring CD4(+)CD25(+)Foxp3(+) regulatory T cells (Tregs) suppress proliferation of CD4(+)CD25(-) effector T cells (Teffs) by mechanisms that are not well understood. We have previously demonstrated a novel mechanism of Treg suppression, i.e. interference with extracellular redox remodeling that occurs during activation of T cells by dendritic cells. In this study, we demonstrate that Treg-mediated redox perturbation is antigen-dependent but not antigen-specific, is CTLA-4-dependent, and requires cell-cell contact. Furthermore, we show that Tregs use multiple strategies for extracellular redox remodeling, including diminished GSH synthesis in dendritic cells via decreased expression of γ-glutamylcysteine synthetase, the limiting enzyme for GSH synthesis. Tregs also consume extracellular cysteine and partition it more proficiently to the oxidation product (sulfate), whereas Teffs divert more of the cysteine pool toward protein and GSH synthesis. Tregs appear to block GSH redistribution from the nucleus to the cytoplasm in Teffs, which is abrogated by the addition of exogenous cysteine. Together, these data provide novel insights into modulation of sulfur-based redox metabolism by Tregs, leading to suppression of T cell activation and proliferation. 相似文献

For immune responses to take place, naive T cells have to encounter, adhere to, and be stimulated by dendritic cells (DCs). In murine lymph nodes, T cells move randomly and scan the surface of multiple DCs. The factors controlling this motility as well as its consequences remain unclear. We have monitored by video-imaging the earliest steps of the interaction between human DCs and autologous naive CD4+ T cells in the absence of exogenous Ags. Mature, but not immature, DCs were able to elicit small calcium responses in naive T cells along with cell polarization and random motility, resulting in an efficient scanning of DC surfaces by T cells. We identified CCL19 as a key factor enabling all these early T cell responses, including the occurrence of calcium transients. Because this chemokine did not influence the strength of naive T cell adhesion to DCs, enhanced LFA-1 affinity for ICAM-1 was not the main mechanism by which CCL19 increased Ag-independent calcium transients. However, concomitantly to T cell motility, CCL19 augmented the frequency of T cell responses to rare anti-CD3/CD28-coated beads, used as surrogate APCs. We thus propose a new role for CCL19 in humans: by conditioning T cells into a motile DC-scanning state, this chemokine promotes Ag-independent responses and increases the probability of cognate MHC-peptide encounter. 相似文献

CCL18 is expressed in atopic dermatitis and mediates skin homing of human memory T cells 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7

CCL18 is a human chemokine secreted by monocytes and dendritic cells. The receptor for CCL18 is not yet known and the functions of this chemokine on immune cells are not fully elucidated. In this study, we describe that CCL18 is present in skin biopsies of atopic dermatitis (AD) patients but not in normal or psoriatic skin. CCL18 was specifically expressed by APCs in the dermis and by Langerhans and inflammatory dendritic epidermal cells in the epidermis. In addition, the serum levels of CCL18 and the percentages of CCL18-producing monocyte/macrophages and dendritic cells were significantly increased in AD patients compared with healthy controls. Furthermore, we demonstrate that CCL18 binds to CLA(+) T cells in peripheral blood of AD patients and healthy individuals and induces migration of AD-derived memory T cells in vitro and in human skin-transplanted SCID mice. These findings highlight a unique role of CCL18 in AD and reveal a novel function of this chemokine mediating skin homing of a subpopulation of human memory T cells. 相似文献

Cutting edge: differential chemokine production by myeloid and plasmacytoid dendritic cells 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10

To examine the different roles of myeloid dendritic cells (M-DCs) and plasmacytoid dendritic cells (P-DCs) in the induction and regulation of immune response, we have studied chemokine secretion by freshly isolated DC subsets in response to bacterial, viral, and T cell-derived stimuli. M-DCs selectively produced very high levels of the homeostatic chemokines CC chemokine ligand (CCL)17 and CCL22, while P-DCs produced very little if any. In contrast, the proinflammatory chemokine CCL3 was secreted mostly by P-DCs, whereas CCL4 and CXC chemokine ligand 8 were produced by both subsets. The selective production of CCL17 and CCL22 by M-DCs but not P-DCs was confirmed in vivo by immunohistology on human reactive lymph node sections. The high production of CCR4 ligands by M-DCs suggests their capacity to selectively recruit at sites of inflammation T cells with regulatory properties or with a Th2 phenotype, whereas P-DCs, by preferentially secreting CCR1/CCR5 ligands, would mostly recruit effector T cells and, in particular, Th1-type cells. 相似文献

Cutting edge: CCR4 mediates antigen-primed T cell binding to activated dendritic cells. 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
The binding of a T cell to an Ag-laden dendritic cell (DC) is a critical step of the acquired immune response. Herein, we address whether a DC-produced chemokine can induce the arrest of T cells on DC under dynamic flow conditions. Ag-primed T cells and a T cell line were observed to rapidly ( approximately 0.5 s) bind to immobilized DC at low shear stress (0.1-0.2 dynes/cm(2)) in a pertussis toxin-sensitive fashion. Quantitatively, Ag-primed T cells displayed 2- to 3-fold enhanced binding to DC compared with unprimed T cells (p < 0.01). In contrast to naive T cells, primed T cell arrest was largely inhibited by pertussis toxin, neutralization of the CC chemokine, macrophage-derived chemokine (CCL22), or by desensitization of the CCL22 receptor, CCR4. Our results demonstrate that DC-derived CCL22 induces rapid binding of activated T cells under dynamic conditions and that Ag-primed and naive T cells fundamentally differ with respect to chemokine-dependent binding to DC. 相似文献

Regulatory T cells (Tregs) suppress immune responses against both self and non-self antigens. Tregs require activation through the T cell receptor (TCR) and IL-2 to exert their suppressive functions. However, how strength of TCR signals modulate the potency of Treg-mediated suppression of antigen-specific T cell activation remain unclear. We found that both strength of TCR signals and ratios of Tregs to target cells, either through superantigen, allogeneic antigens or HIV-specific peptides, modified the suppressive ability of Tregs. While human Tregs were able to mediate suppression in the presence of only autologous antigen-presenting cells, this was much less efficient as compared to when Tregs were activated by allogeneic dendritic cells. In another physiologically relevant system, we show that the strength of peptide stimulation, high frequency of responder CD8+ T cells or presence of high IL-2 can override the suppression of HIV-specific CD8+ T cells by Tregs. These findings suggest that ratios and TCR activation of human Tregs, are important parameters to overcome robust immune responses to pathogens or allogeneic antigens. Modulating the strength of T cell signals and selective enhancement or depletion of antigen-specific Tregs thus may have implications for designing potent vaccines and regulating immune responses during allogeneic transplantation and chronic infections. 相似文献

Tissue homing of activated T cells is typically mediated through their specific integrin and chemokine receptor repertoire. Activation of human primary CD4(+) T cells in the presence of CD46 cross-linking induces the development of a distinct immunomodulatory T cell population characterized by high IL-10/granzyme B production. How these regulatory T cells (Tregs) migrate/home to specific tissue sites is not understood. In this study, we determined the adhesion protein and chemokine receptor expression pattern on human CD3/CD46-activated peripheral blood CD4(+) T cells. CD3/CD46-activated, but not CD3/CD28-activated, T cells up-regulate the integrin alpha(4)beta(7). The interaction of alpha(4)beta(7) with its ligand mucosal addressin cell adhesion molecule 1 (MAdCAM-1) mediates homing or retention of T cells to the intestine. CD3/CD46-activated Tregs adhere to/roll on MAdCAM-1-expressing HeLa cells, similar to T cells isolated from the human lamina propria (LP). This interaction is inhibited by silencing MAdCAM-1 expression in HeLa cells or by the addition of blocking Abs to beta(7). CD46 activation of T cells also induced the expression of the surface-bound cytokine LIGHT and the chemokine receptor CCR9, both marker constitutively expressed by gut LP-resident T cells. In addition, we found that approximately 10% of the CD4(+) T lymphocytes isolated from the LP of patients undergoing bariatric surgery contain T cells that spontaneously secrete a cytokine pattern consistent with that from CD46-activated T cells. These data suggest that CD46-induced Tregs might play a role in intestinal immune homeostasis where they could dampen unwanted effector T cell responses through local IL-10/granzyme B production. 相似文献

Regulatory T Cells and Human Myeloid Dendritic Cells Promote Tolerance via Programmed Death Ligand-1

Immunotherapy using regulatory T cells (Treg) has been proposed, yet cellular and molecular mechanisms of human Tregs remain incompletely characterized. Here, we demonstrate that human Tregs promote the generation of myeloid dendritic cells (DC) with reduced capacity to stimulate effector T cell responses. In a model of xenogeneic graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), allogeneic human DC conditioned with Tregs suppressed human T cell activation and completely abrogated posttransplant lethality. Tregs induced programmed death ligand-1 (PD-L1) expression on Treg-conditioned DC; subsequently, Treg-conditioned DC induced PD-L1 expression in vivo on effector T cells. PD-L1 blockade reversed Treg-conditioned DC function in vitro and in vivo, thereby demonstrating that human Tregs can promote immune suppression via DC modulation through PD-L1 up-regulation. This identification of a human Treg downstream cellular effector (DC) and molecular mechanism (PD-L1) will facilitate the rational design of clinical trials to modulate alloreactivity. 相似文献

The lymphoid chemokine CCL21 costimulates naive T cell expansion and Th1 polarization of non-regulatory CD4+ T cells 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
CCL21 (SLC/6Ckine) is constitutively expressed by secondary lymphoid tissue and attracts CCR7-expressing mature dendritic cells and naive T cells. Recent studies demonstrated that intra-tumoral delivery of CCL21 induces tumor regression in a T cell dependent manner. CCL21 is known to mediate T cell trafficking but little is known about its function as a costimulatory molecule. Herein, we demonstrate that CCL21 costimulates expansion of CD4+ and CD8+ T cells and induces Th1 polarization. These effects were specific for naive T cells, and we show that CD4+CD25+ regulatory T cells were hyporesponsive to CCL21 induced migration, and unresponsive to CCL21 costimulation. These unique functions of CCL21 to both attract naive T cells as well as costimulate their proliferation and differentiation, suggests that CCL21 is a pivotal molecule for priming T cell responses and has therapeutic implications for local delivery of CCL21. The coordinated effects of CCL21 on T cell migration and activation may also represent a more comprehensive paradigm for the activity of other chemokines as well. 相似文献

CCL1-CCR8 interactions: an axis mediating the recruitment of T cells and Langerhans-type dendritic cells to sites of atopic skin inflammation 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

Atopic dermatitis represents a chronically relapsing skin disease with a steadily increasing prevalence of 10-20% in children. Skin-infiltrating T cells, dendritic cells (DC), and mast cells are thought to play a crucial role in its pathogenesis. We report that the expression of the CC chemokine CCL1 (I-309) is significantly and selectively up-regulated in atopic dermatitis in comparison to psoriasis, cutaneous lupus erythematosus, or normal skin. CCL1 serum levels of atopic dermatitis patients are significantly higher than levels in healthy individuals. DC, mast cells, and dermal endothelial cells are abundant sources of CCL1 during atopic skin inflammation and allergen challenge, and Staphylococcus aureus-derived products induce its production. In vitro, binding and cross-linking of IgE on mast cells resulted in a significant up-regulation of this inflammatory chemokine. Its specific receptor, CCR8, is expressed on a small subset of circulating T cells and is abundantly expressed on interstitial DC, Langerhans cells generated in vitro, and their monocytic precursors. Although DC maintain their CCR8+ status during maturation, brief activation of circulating T cells recruits CCR8 from intracytoplamic stores to the cell surface. Moreover, the inflammatory and atopy-associated chemokine CCL1 synergizes with the homeostatic chemokine CXCL12 (SDF-1alpha) resulting in the recruitment of T cell and Langerhans cell-like DC. Taken together, these findings suggest that the axis CCL1-CCR8 links adaptive and innate immune functions that play a role in the initiation and amplification of atopic skin inflammation. 相似文献

The direct modulation of T cell responses is an emerging therapeutic strategy with the potential to modulate undesired immune responses including, autoimmune disease, and allogeneic cells transplantation. We have previously demonstrated that poly(lactide-co-glycolide) particles were able to modulate T cell responses indirectly through antigen-presenting cells (APCs). In this report, we investigated the design of nanoparticles that can directly interact and modulate T cells by coating the membranes from APCs onto nanoparticles to form membrane-coated nanoparticles (MCNPs). Proteins within the membranes of the APCs, such as Major Histocompatibility Complex class II and co-stimulatory factors, were effectively transferred to the MCNP. Using alloreactive T cell models, MCNP derived from allogeneic dendritic cells were able to stimulate proliferation, which was not observed with membranes from syngeneic dendritic cells and influenced cytokine secretion. Furthermore, we investigated the engineering of the membranes either on the dendritic cells or postfabrication of MCNP. Engineered membranes could be to promote antigen-specific responses, to differentially activate T cells, or to directly induce apoptosis. Collectively, MCNPs represent a tunable platform that can directly interact with and modulate T cell responses. 相似文献

We previously demonstrated that HIV envelope glycoprotein (Env), delivered in the form of a vaccine and expressed by dendritic cells or 293T cells, could suppress Ag-stimulated CD4(+) T cell proliferation. The mechanism remains to be identified but is dependent on CD4 and independent of coreceptor binding. Recently, CD4(+) regulatory T (Treg) cells were found to inhibit protective anti-HIV CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cell responses. However, the role of Tregs in HIV remains highly controversial. HIV Env is a potent immune inhibitory molecule that interacts with host CD4(+) cells, including Treg cells. Using an in vitro model, we investigated whether Treg cells are involved in Env-induced suppression of CD4(+) T cell proliferation, and whether Env directly affects the functional activity of Treg cells. Our data shows that exposure of human CD4(+) T cells to Env neither induced a higher frequency nor a more activated phenotype of Treg cells. Depletion of CD25(+) Treg cells from PBMC did not overcome the Env-induced suppression of CD4(+) T cell proliferation, demonstrating that CD25(+)FoxP3(+) Treg cells are not involved in Env-induced suppression of CD4(+) T cell proliferation. In addition, we extend our observation that similar to Env expressed on cells, Env present on virions also suppresses CD4(+) T cell proliferation. 相似文献

Epithelial inflammation is associated with CCL28 production and the recruitment of regulatory T cells expressing CCR10 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

Mucosal tissues require constant immune surveillance to clear harmful pathogens while maintaining tolerance to self Ags. Regulatory T cells (Tregs) play a central role in this process and expression of alpha(E)beta(7) has been reported to define a subset of Tregs with tropism for inflamed tissues. However, the signals responsible for recruiting Tregs to epithelial surfaces are poorly understood. We have isolated a subset of CCR10-expressing CD25+CD4+Foxp3+ Tregs with potent anti-inflammatory properties from chronically inflamed human liver. The CCR10+ Tregs were detected around bile ducts that expressed increased levels of the CCR10 ligand CCL28. CCL28 was secreted by primary human cholangiocytes in vitro in response to LPS, IL-1beta, or bile acids. Exposure of CCR10+ Tregs to CCL28 in vitro stimulated migration and adhesion to mucosal addressin cell adhesion molecule-1 and VCAM-1. Liver-derived CCR10+ Tregs expressed low levels of CCR7 but high levels of CXCR3, a chemokine receptor associated with infiltration into inflamed tissue and contained a subset of alpha(E)beta7(+) cells. We propose that CXCR3 promotes the recruitment of Tregs to inflamed tissues and CCR10 allows them to respond to CCL28 secreted by epithelial cells resulting in the accumulation of CCR10+ Tregs at mucosal surfaces. 相似文献

Regulatory CD25(+)CD4(+) T cells (Tregs) play an important role in the control of peripheral tolerance. In this study we demonstrate that human peripheral blood Tregs can be divided into two distinct populations based on the expression of CCR4. The majority ( approximately 75%) of freshly isolated Tregs express CCR4 and presumably represent memory-type Tregs. Interestingly, CCR4(-) Tregs require anti-CD3 Ab-mediated activation to acquire a regulatory activity, while CCR4(+) Tregs appear to be already primed to suppress the proliferation of CD8(+) T cells. CCR4 is also expressed on CD25(low)CD4(+) T cells (CCR4(+) non-Tregs) that mostly suppress Th1-type polarization without affecting T cell proliferation, presumably via the production of immunomodulatory cytokines like IL-10. In contrast, CCR4(+) Tregs express FasL to primarily regulate T cell proliferation via a contact-mediated process involving FasL/Fas signaling, a major regulatory pathway of T cell homeostasis. Finally, we also demonstrate that the depletion of CCR4(+) T cells leads to Th1-type polarization of CD4(+) T cells and augmentation of CD8(+) T cell responses to tumor Ags. 相似文献

Foxp3+ regulatory T cells (Tregs) play a pivotal role in the maintenance of peripheral T cell tolerance and are thought to interact with dendritic cells (DC) in secondary lymphoid organs. We analyzed here the in vivo requirements for selective expansion of Ag-specific Treg vs CD4+CD25- effector T cells and engagement of Ag-specific Treg-DC interactions in secondary lymphoid organs. Using i.v. Ag delivery in the absence of inflammation, we found that CD4+CD25+Foxp3+ Tregs undergo vigorous expansion and accumulate whereas naive CD4+CD25-Foxp3- T cells undergo abortive activation. Quantifying directly the interactions between Tregs and CD11c+ DC, we found that Tregs establish cognate contacts with endogenous CD11c+ DC in spleen and lymph nodes at an early time point preceding their expansion. Importantly, we observed that as few as 10(3) Tregs selectively expanded by i.v. Ag injection are able to suppress B and T cell immune responses in mouse recipients challenged with the Ag. Our results demonstrate that Tregs are selectively mobilized by Ag recognition in the absence of inflammatory signals, and can induce thereafter potent tolerance to defined Ag targets. 相似文献
