Ag-specific Th1 and Th2 cytokine-producing CD4 T cells were quantitated in secondary lymphoid and tertiary tissues following oral Listeria monocytogenes infection. Although the response to Listeria was previously believed to be predominantly Th1 like, CD4 T cells producing IL-4 or IL-5 comprised a substantial proportion of the overall primary and memory response. The frequency of IFN-gamma-, IL-4-, or IL-5-producing primary effector or memory CD4 T cells was significantly higher in lung, liver, and intestinal lamina propria (LP) as compared with spleen and lymph node. However, maximum numbers of IL-4- and IL-5-producing cells were detected in the LP several days after the peak of the Th1 response, and IL-5 production was skewed toward the mucosal tissues. Remarkably, the recall response resulted in sustained Th1 and Th2 responses in tertiary, but not lymphoid tissues and long-term retention of Th1 and Th2 memory cells in equal proportions in the LP. Finally, CD40 ligand was essential for induction of IFN-gamma in the spleen and LP, but not in the liver and lung, while the IL-4 response required CD40 ligand only in the spleen. Therefore, the rules governing the effector phenotype, and the overall magnitude of the CD4 response, are regulated at the level of individual tissues. 相似文献

VIP and PACAP enhance the in vivo generation of memory TH2 cells by inhibiting peripheral deletion of antigen-specific effectors 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
In an immune response, antigen-specific CD4 T cells proliferate and differentiate into effector cells capable to produce large amounts of cytokines upon restimulation. Most effector T cells are later eliminated through antigen-induced cell death (AICD), mediated through FasL/Fas interactions. A low percentage of effector T cells survive and differentiate into long-lived memory cells. Mechanisms must operate not only to destroy no longer needed and even potentially damaging T cells, but also to allow the survival of a small number of activated T cells. Little is known about the factors and mechanisms that regulate the shift from an apoptosis-sensitive to an apoptosis-resistant phenotype. VIP and the structurally related peptide, PACAP, synthesized and/or released in the immune organs act on both innate and adaptive immunity. Recently, VIP and PACAP were shown to inhibit AICD in peripheral CD4 T cells by down-regulating FasL expression. In view of these findings, VIP and PACAP are reasonable candidates for the generation of memory T cells. To test this hypothesis, we analyzed the effects of VIP and PACAP in various models for effector and memory T cells. Our data demonstrate that both neuropeptides promote the in vivo effector function and memory phenotype of Th2, but not Th1 cells, by preferentially inhibiting the clonal deletion of Th2 cells. To our knowledge, this is the first report describing the role of a neuropeptide present in the lymphoid microenvironment on the generation and maintenance of long-lived memory T cells. 相似文献

STAT1 in peripheral tissue differentially regulates homing of antigen-specific Th1 and Th2 cells 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Th1 and Th2 effector CD4+ T cells orchestrate distinct counterregulatory biological responses. To deliver effective tissue Th1- and Th2-type responses, Th1 and Th2 cell recruitment into tissue must be differentially regulated. We show that tissue-derived STAT1 controls the trafficking of adoptively transferred, Ag-specific, wild-type Th1 cells into the lung. Trafficking of Th1 and Th2 cells is differentially regulated as STAT6, which regulates Th2 cell trafficking, had no effect on the trafficking of Th1 cells and STAT1 deficiency did not alter Th2 cell trafficking. We demonstrate that STAT1 control of Th1 cell trafficking is not mediated through T-bet. STAT1 controls the recruitment of Th1 cells through the induction of CXCL9, CXCL10, CXCL11, and CXCL16, whose expression levels in the lung were markedly decreased in STAT1-/- mice. CXCL10 replacement partially restored Th1 cell trafficking in STAT1-deficient mice in vivo, and deficiency in CXCR3, the receptor for CXCL9, CXCL10, and CXCL11, impaired the trafficking of adoptively transferred Th1 cells in wild-type mice. Our work identifies that STAT1 in peripheral tissue regulates the homing of Ag-specific Th1 cells through the induction of a distinct subset of chemokines and establishes that Th1 and Th2 cell trafficking is differentially controlled in vivo by STAT1 and STAT6, respectively. 相似文献

Contact between T cells and dendritic cells (DCs) is required for their subsequent interaction leading to the induction of adaptive immune responses. Quantitative data regarding the contact frequencies of T cell subsets in different lymphoid organs and species are lacking. Therefore, naive, effector, and memory CD4 T cells were injected into rats in absence of the cognate Ag, and 0.5-96 h later, spleen, lymph nodes, and Peyer's patches were removed. Cryosections were analyzed for contact between donor T cells and endogenous DCs in the T cell zone, and donor cell proliferation. More than 60% of injected naive CD4 T cells were in contact with endogenous DCs at all time points and in all organs analyzed. Surprisingly, we were unable to detect any differences between naive, effector, and memory CD4 T cells despite different expression levels of surface molecules. In addition, contact frequency was similar for T cells in lymphoid organs of rats, mice, and humans; it was unaffected by the absence of LFA-1 (CD11a/CD18), and sustained effector T cells in an activated state. Thus, the architecture of the T cell zone rather than expression patterns of surface molecules determines the contact efficiency between T cells and DCs in vivo. 相似文献

Ag-specific CD4 T cells transferred into unirradiated Ag-bearing recipients proliferate, but survival and accumulation of proliferating cells is not extensive and the donor cells do not acquire effector functions. We previously showed that a single costimulatory signal delivered by an agonist Ab to OX40 (CD134) promotes accumulation of proliferating cells and promotes differentiation to effector CD4 T cells capable of secreting IFN-gamma. In this study, we determined whether OX40 costimulation requires supporting costimulatory or differentiation signals to drive acquisition of effector T cell function. We report that OX40 engagement drives effector T cell differentiation in the absence of CD28 and CD40 signals. Two important regulators of Th1 differentiation, IL-12R and T-bet, also are not required for acquisition of effector function in CD4 T cells responsive to OX40 stimulation. Finally, we show that CD25-deficient CD4 T cells produce little IFN-gamma in the presence of OX40 costimulation compared with wild type, suggesting that IL-2R signaling is required for efficient OX40-mediated differentiation to IFN-gamma secretion. 相似文献

Chemokines and their receptors fulfill specialized roles in inflammation and under homeostatic conditions. CCR7 and its ligands, CCL19 and CCL21, are involved in lymphocyte recirculation through secondary lymphoid organs and additionally navigate lymphocytes into distinct tissue compartments. The role of CCR7 in the migration of polarized T effector/memory cell subsets in vivo is still poorly understood. We therefore analyzed murine and human CD4(+) cytokine-producing cells developed in vivo for their chemotactic reactivity to CCR7 ligands. The responses of cells producing cytokines, such as IFN-gamma, IL-4, and IL-10, as well as of subsets defined by memory or activation markers were comparable to that of naive CD4(+) cells, with slightly lower reactivity in cells expressing IL-10 or CD69. This indicates that CCR7 ligands are able to attract naive as well as the vast majority of activated and effector/memory T cell stages. Chemotactic reactivity of these cells toward CCL21 was absent in CCR7-deficient cells, proving that effector cells do not use alternative receptors for this chemokine. Th1 cells generated from CCR7(-/-) mice failed to enter lymph nodes and Peyer's patches, but did enter a site of inflammation. These findings indicate that CD4(+) cells producing effector cytokines upon stimulation retain the capacity to recirculate through lymphoid tissues via CCR7. 相似文献

Pancreas-infiltrating Th1 cells and diabetes develop in IL-12-deficient nonobese diabetic mice. 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

IL-12 and IL-12 antagonist administration to nonobese diabetic (NOD) mice accelerates and prevents insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM), respectively. To further define the role of endogenous IL-12 in the development of diabetogenic Th1 cells, IL-12-deficient NOD mice were generated and analyzed. Th1 responses to exogenous Ags were reduced by approximately 80% in draining lymph nodes of these mice, and addition of IL-12, but not IL-18, restored Th1 development in vitro, indicating a nonredundant role of IL-12. Moreover, spontaneous Th1 responses to a self Ag, the tyrosine phosphatase-like IA-2, were undetectable in lymphoid organs from IL-12-deficient, in contrast to wild-type, NOD mice. Nevertheless, wild-type and IL-12-deficient NOD mice developed similar insulitis and IDDM. Both in wild-type and IL-12-deficient NOD mice, approximately 20% of pancreas-infiltrating CD4+ T cells produced IFN-gamma, whereas very few produced IL-10 or IL-4, indicating that IDDM was associated with a type 1 T cell infiltrate in the target organ. T cell recruitment in the pancreas seemed favored in IL-12-deficient NOD mice, as revealed by increased P-selectin ligand expression on pancreas-infiltrating T cells, and this could, at least in part, compensate for the defective Th1 cell pool recruitable from peripheral lymphoid organs. Residual Th1 cells could also accumulate in the pancreas of IL-12-deficient NOD mice because Th2 cells were not induced, in contrast to wild-type NOD mice treated with an IL-12 antagonist. Thus, a regulatory pathway seems necessary to counteract the pathogenic Th1 cells that develop in the absence of IL-12 in a spontaneous chronic progressive autoimmune disease under polygenic control, such as IDDM. 相似文献

BALB/c mice immunized with a vaccinia virus expressing the attachment (G) glycoprotein of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) develop a virus-specific CD4(+) T cell response that consists of a mixture of Th1 and Th2 CD4(+) T cells following intranasal infection with live RSV. Recent work has shown that both Th1 and Th2 CD4(+) T cells are elicited to a single region comprising aa 183-197 of the G protein. To more precisely define the CD4(+) T cell epitope(s) contained within this region, we created a panel of amino- and carboxyl-terminal truncated as well as single alanine-substituted peptides spanning aa 183-197. These peptides were used to examine the ex vivo cytokine response of memory effector CD4(+) T cells infiltrating the lungs of G-primed RSV-infected mice. Analysis of lung-derived memory effector CD4(+) T cells using intracellular cytokine staining and/or ELISA of effector T cell culture supernatants revealed a single I-E(d)-restricted CD4(+) T cell epitope with a core sequence mapping to aa 185-193. In addition, we examined the T cell repertoire of the RSV G peptide-specific CD4(+) T cells and show that the CD4(+) T cells directed to this single immunodominant G epitope use a restricted range of TCR Vss genes and predominantly express Vss14 TCR. 相似文献

Naive T cell circulation is restricted to secondary lymphoid organs. Effector and memory T cells, in contrast, acquire the ability to migrate to nonlymphoid tissues. In this study we examined whether nonlymphoid tissues contribute to the differentiation of effector T cells to memory cells and the long-term maintenance of memory T cells. We found that CD4, but not CD8, effector T cell differentiation to memory cells is impaired in adoptive hosts that lack secondary lymphoid organs. In contrast, established CD4 and CD8 memory T cells underwent basal homeostatic proliferation in the liver, lungs, and bone marrow, were maintained long-term, and functioned in the absence of secondary lymphoid organs. CD8 memory T cells found in nonlymphoid tissues expressed both central and effector memory phenotypes, whereas CD4 memory T cells displayed predominantly an effector memory phenotype. These findings indicate that secondary lymphoid organs are not necessary for the maintenance and function of memory T cell populations, whereas the optimal differentiation of CD4 effectors to memory T cells is dependent on these organs. The ability of memory T cells to persist and respond to foreign Ag independently of secondary lymphoid tissues supports the existence of nonlymphoid memory T cell pools that provide essential immune surveillance in the periphery. 相似文献

The chemokine receptor CCR7 is a key factor in the coordinate migration of T cells and dendritic cells (DC) into and their localization within secondary lymphoid organs. In this study we investigated the impact of CCR7 on CD8(+) T cell responses by infecting CCR7(-/-) mice with lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV). We found that the absence of CCR7 affects the magnitude of an antiviral CTL response during the acute phase, with reduced numbers of virus-specific CTL in all lymphoid and nonlymphoid organs tested. On the single cell level, CCR7-deficient CTL gained full effector function, such that antiviral protection in CCR7-deficient mice was complete, but delayed. Similarly, adoptive transfer experiments using DC from CCR7-deficient or competent mice for the priming of CCR7-positive or CCR7-negative CD8(+) T cells, respectively, revealed that ectopic positioning of DC and CTL outside organized T cell zones results in reduced priming efficacy. In the memory phase, CCR7-deficient mice maintained a stable LCMV-specific CTL population, predominantly in nonlymphoid organs, and rapidly mounted protective CTL responses against a challenge infection with a vaccinia virus recombinant for the gp33 epitope of LCMV. Taken together, the CCR7-dependent organization of the T cell zone does not appear to be a prerequisite for antiviral effector CTL differentiation and the sustenance of antiviral memory responses in lymphoid or peripheral tissues. 相似文献

Central memory CD4(+) T cells provide a pool of lymph node-homing, Ag-experienced cells that are capable of responding rapidly after a secondary infection. We have previously described a population of central memory CD4(+) T cells in Leishmania major-infected mice that were capable of mediating immunity to a secondary infection. In this study, we show that the Leishmania-specific central memory CD4(+) T cells require IL-12 to produce IFN-gamma, demonstrating that this population needs additional signals to develop into Th1 cells. In contrast, effector cells isolated from immune mice produced IFN-gamma in vitro or in vivo in the absence of IL-12. In addition, we found that when central memory CD4(+) T cells were adoptively transferred into IL-12-deficient hosts, many of the cells became IL-4 producers. These studies indicate that the central memory CD4(+) T cell population generated during L. major infection is capable of developing into either Th1 or Th2 effectors. Thus, continued IL-12 production may be required to ensure the development of Th1 cells from this central memory T cell pool, a finding that has direct relevance to the design of vaccines dependent upon central memory CD4(+) T cells. 相似文献

Recent studies suggest that effector T cells generated by immune responses migrate to multiple non-lymphoid sites, even those without apparent expression of antigen or inflammation. To investigate the ability of distinct CD4(+) T lymphocyte subsets to enter and persist in non-lymphoid, noninflamed compartments, we examined the migration and persistence of na?ve, effector, and rested effector CD4(+) T cells generated in vitro following transfer to nonimmunized adoptive hosts. Th1 and Th2 effectors migrated to both lymphoid and non-lymphoid organs (peritoneum, fat pads, and lung). In contrast, rested effectors and na?ve cells migrated only to lymphoid areas. Adhesion molecule expression, but not chemokine receptor expression, correlated with the ability to enter non-lymphoid sites. Donor cells persisted longer in lymphoid than in non-lymphoid sites. When hosts with na?ve and memory donor cells were challenged with antigen, effectors developed in situ, which also migrated to non-lymphoid sites. Memory cells showed an accelerated shift to non-lymphoid migration, in keeping with memory effector formation. These results suggest that only recently activated effector T cells can disperse to non-lymphoid sites in the absence of antigen and inflammation, and as effectors return to rest, they lose this ability. These data also argue that memory cells in lymphoid sites are longer lived and not in equilibrium with those in non-lymphoid sites. 相似文献

The role of CD2 in murine CD4 helper T cell differentiation and polarization was examined using TCR-Cyt-5CC7-I transgenic recombination activating gene-2-/- H-2(a) mice on CD2+/+ or CD2-/- backgrounds. In the absence of CD2, thymic development was abnormal as judged by reduction in the steady state number of total, double-positive, and CD4 single-positive (SP) thymocytes, as well as a defect in their restorative dynamics after peptide-induced negative selection in vivo. In addition, in CD2-/- animals, lymph node CD4 SP T cells manifest a 10- to 100-fold attenuated activation response to cytochrome c (CytC) agonist peptides as judged by induction of CD25 and CD69 cell surface expression or [(3)H]TdR incorporation; differences in the magnitude of responsiveness and requisite molar peptide concentrations were even greater for altered peptide ligands. Although the presence or absence of CD2 did not impact the final Th1 or Th2 polarization outcome, CD2 expression reduced the CytC peptide concentration threshold necessary to facilitate both Th1 and Th2 differentiation. In vivo administration of CytC peptide to CD2-/- animals yielded an impaired CD4 SP T cell effector/memory phenotype compared with similarly treated CD2+/+ mice. Analysis of TCR-Cyt-5CC7-I human CD2 double-transgenic mice similarly failed to reveal a preferential Th1 vs Th2 polarization. Collectively, these results indicate that CD2 is important for the efficient development of CD4 SP thymocytes and TCR-dependent activation of mature CD4 lymph node T cells, but does not direct a particular helper T cell subset polarity. 相似文献

EBV-induced gene 3 (EBI3)-encoded protein can form heterodimers with IL-27P28 and IL-12P35 to form IL-27 and IL-35. IL-27 and IL-35 may influence autoimmunity by inhibiting Th17 differentiation and facilitating the inhibitory roles of Foxp3(+) regulatory T (Treg) cells, respectively. In this study, we have evaluated the development of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) in EBI3-deficient mice that lack both IL-27 and IL-35. We found that myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein peptide immunization resulted in marginally enhanced EAE development in EBI3-deficient C57BL6 and 2D2 TCR-transgenic mice. EBI3 deficiency resulted in significantly increased Th17 and Th1 responses in the CNS and increased T cell production of IL-2 and IL-17 in the peripheral lymphoid organs. EBI3-deficient and -sufficient 2D2 T cells had equal ability in inducing EAE in Rag1(-/-) mice; however, more severe disease was induced in EBI3(-/-)Rag1(-/-) mice than in Rag1(-/-) mice by 2D2 T cells. EBI3-deficient mice had increased numbers of CD4(+)Foxp3(+) Treg cells in peripheral lymphoid organs. More strikingly, EBI3-deficient Treg cells had more potent suppressive functions in vitro and in vivo. Thus, our data support an inhibitory role for EBI3 in Th17, Th1, IL-2, and Treg responses. Although these observations are consistent with the known functions of IL-27, the IL-35 contribution to the suppressive functions of Treg cells is not evident in this model. Increased Treg responses in EBI3(-/-) mice may explain why the EAE development is only modestly enhanced compared with wild-type mice. 相似文献

Murine bone marrow (BM) NK T cells can suppress graft-vs-host disease, transplant rejection, and MLRs. Human BM contains T cells with similar potential. Human BM was enriched for NK T cells, approximately 50% of which recognized the nonpolymorphic CD1d molecule. In contrast to the well-characterized blood-derived CD1d-reactive invariant NK T cells, the majority of human BM CD1d-reactive T cells used diverse TCR. Healthy donor invariant NK T cells rapidly produce large amounts of IL-4 and IFN-gamma and can influence Th1/Th2 decision-making. Healthy donor BM CD1d-reactive T cells were Th2-biased and suppressed MLR and, unlike the former, responded preferentially to CD1d(+) lymphoid cells. These results identify a novel population of human T cells which may contribute to B cell development and/or maintain Th2 bias against autoimmune T cell responses against new B cell Ag receptors. Distinct CD1d-reactive T cell populations have the potential to suppress graft-vs-host disease and stimulate antitumor responses. 相似文献
