Several recent reports have described an effector role for CD8(+) T cells during EAE. We have previously demonstrated reduced disease incidence and severity in CD43(-/-) mice following MOG immunization, and attributed this attenuation in disease progression to the effects of CD43 deficiency on CD4+ T cells. Here, we extend those studies to examine the effects of the loss of CD43 on MOG-specific CD8+ T cells. A reduced frequency of MOG-specific CD8+ T cells following immunization was observed in CD43(-/-) mice relative to wild-type controls, as demonstrated by intracellular cytokine and MHC tetramer staining. In addition, adoptive transfer of CD8+ MOG 35-55-primed LN cells from CD43(-/-) mice resulted in significantly attenuated EAE induction as compared to recipients of wild-type CD8+ MOG-primed cells. Analysis of intracellular signaling intermediates revealed a deficiency in the ability of MOG-specific CD8+ T cells to phosphorylate ERK in response to antigen. These results characterize an important role for CD43 during the activation and expansion of autoreactive MOG-specific CD8+ T cells. 相似文献

Allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (BMT) has become a therapy of choice for the treatment of certain malignancies and hematopoietic disorders. However, immunodeficiencies following BMT continue to cause significant morbidity and mortality. We have compared the T cell receptor (TCR) repertoire of BMT patients and healthy control individuals by staining peripheral blood mononuclear cells with fluorochrome-labeled TCR-specific antibodies. Several patients exhibited a biased pattern of TCR expression atypical of the healthy controls, yet no particular TCR bias characterized all patients. For example, we found that 2%–8% of T cell from healthy individuals expressed the V19 TCR. One BMT patient exhibited V19 expression on more than 60% of peripheral T cells, while additional patients expressed V19 on less than 1% of T cells. The patients with the most extreme skewing of TCR types suffered from graft-versus-host disease. The causes of skewed TCR V expression patterns in BMT patients are not fully understood, yet some researchers have suggested that an oligoclonal expansion of CD8+ T cell populations may be largely responsible. To test this hypothesis, we examined the TCR V repertoire of CD4+ and CD8+ T cell populations. We found that biased V expression characterized both CD4+ and CD8+ T cell populations, sometimes within a single individual. Thus, therapies directed toward CD8+ T cells alone may not fully correct repertoire abnormalities following BMT. 相似文献

The function of T cell subsets in tumor-bearing mice was examined using an in vitro culture system of anti-(sheep red blood cell) antibody production, which is known to be dependent on T cells. The helper function of T cells of fibrosarcoma-MethA-bearing mice in antibody production decreased with the tumor stage of the mice. T cells were separated into CD4+ and CD8+ cells for further analysis of T cell subsets by the panning method using monoclonal antibodies. The helper function of CD4+ T cells in antibody production began to decrease significantly in tumor-bearing mice 1 week after the tumor transplantation. On the other hand, the suppressive function of CD8+ T cells was retained and had not decreased in the mice even 3 weeks after the transplantation. The same changes in function of CD4+ and CD8+ T cells were also observed in Methl-bearing mice. These results suggested that this tumor-associated immunosuppression in antibody production is attributable to the decrease in helper activity of CD4+ T cells and the maintenance of the suppressive activity of CD8+ T cells. 相似文献

4-1BB cross-linking enhances the survival and cell cycle progression of CD4 T lymphocytes 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
4-1BB, a T cell co-stimulatory receptor, prolongs the survival and multiplication of CD4 T cells. Cross-linking 4-1BB stimulated expression of the anti-apoptotic genes bcl-XL and bcl-2, as well as of cyclins D2 and E, and inhibited expression of the cyclin-dependent kinase (cdk) inhibitor p27kip1. Ova-activated CD4 T cells of 4-1BB-deficient/DO11.10 TCR transgenic mice survived less well and underwent less expansion than cells of wild type DO11.10 TCR transgenic mice. These findings demonstrate that 4-1BB is a co-stimulatory molecule for CD4 T cell survival and expansion in vivo. 相似文献

CD4+CD25+ regulatory T cells (Tr) are important in maintaining immune tolerance to self-antigen (Ag) and preventing autoimmunity. Reduced number and inadequate function of Tr are observed in chronic autoimmune diseases. Adoptively transferred Tr effectively suppress ongoing autoimmune disease in multiple animal models. Therefore, strategies to modulate Tr have become an attractive approach to control autoimmunity. Activation of Tr is necessary for their optimal immune regulatory function. However, due to the low ratio of Tr to any given antigen (Ag) and the unknown nature of Ag in many autoimmune diseases, specific activation is not practical for potential therapeutic intervention. It has been shown in animal models that once activated, Tr can exhibit immune suppression in a bystander Ag-non-specific fashion, suggesting the effector phase of Tr is Ag independent. To investigate whether the immune suppression by activated bystander Tr is as potent as that of the Ag specific Tr, Tr cells were isolated from BALB/c or ovalbumin (OVA) specific T cell receptor (TCR) transgenic mice (DO11.10) and their immune suppression of an OVA specific T cell response was compared. We found that once activated ex vivo, Tr from BALB/c and DO11.10 mice exhibited comparable inhibition on OVA specific T cell responses as determined by T cell proliferation and cytokine production. Furthermore, their immune suppression function was compared in a delayed type hypersensitivity (DTH) model induced by OVA specific T cells. Again, OVA specific and non-specific Tr exhibited similar inhibition of the DTH response. Taken together, the results indicate that ex vivo activated Ag-non-specific Tr are as efficient as Ag specific Tr in immune suppression, therefore our study provides additional evidence suggesting the possibility of applying ex vivo activated Tr therapy for the control of autoimmunity. 相似文献

Engagement of glucocorticoid-induced TNFR-related protein (GITR) enables the costimulation of both CD25−CD4+ effector (Teff) and CD25+CD4+ regulatory (Treg) cells; however, the effects of GITR-costimulation on Treg function remain controversial. In this study, we examined the effects of GITR ligand (GITRL) binding on the respective functions of CD4+ T cells. GITRL-P815 transfectants efficiently augmented anti-CD3-induced proliferation and cytokine production by Teff cells. Proliferation and IL-10 production in Treg were also enhanced by GITRL transfectants when exogenous IL-2 and stronger CD3 stimulation was provided. Concomitant GITRL-costimulation of Teff and Treg converted the anergic state of Treg into a proliferating state, maintaining and augmenting their function. Thus, GITRL-costimulation augments both effector and regulatory functions of CD4+ T cells. Our results suggest that highly activated and increased ratios of Treg reverse the immune-enhancing effects of GITRL-costimulation in Teff, which may be problematic for therapeutic applications using strong GITR agonists. 相似文献

4-1BB: Still in the Midst of Darkness 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9
4-1BB is a member of the tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily. The receptor functions mainly as a costimulatory molecule in T lymphocytes. In addition, several lines of evidence have shown that interactions between 4-1BB and its ligand are involved in the antigen presentation process and the generation of cytotoxic T cells. Recent studies, however, have demonstrated that 4-1BB plays more diverse roles: Signals through 4-1BB are important for long-term survival of CD8+ T cells and the induction of helper T cell anergy. Clinically, there is great interest in 4-1BB, because T-cell activation induced by anti-4-1BB monoclonal antibodies is highly efficient in the eradication of established tumor cells in mice. Now, since mice deficient in 4-1BB or the 4-1BB ligand are available, subtle roles played by 4-1BB may be revealed in the near future. 相似文献

Successful elimination of memory-type CD8+ T cell subsets by the administration of anti-Gr-1 monoclonal antibody in vivo 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

During investigating the expression of Gr-1 antigen on various subsets of mouse spleen cells, we found that Gr-1 was expressed on memory-type CD8(+)CD44(high)CD62L(high) T cells in addition to granulocytes. Intraperitoneal administration of anti-Gr-1 mAb caused almost complete elimination of Ly-6C(+) memory-type CD8(+) T cells as well as Ly-6G(+) granulocytes. Anti-Gr-1 mAb-treated mouse spleen cells exhibited greatly reduced IFN-gamma production in response to anti-CD3 mAb both in vitro and in vivo. This reduced cytokine production appeared to be derived from elimination of IFN-gamma-producing Gr-1(+)CD8(+) T cells. Indeed, CD8(+) T cells with IFN-gamma-producing activity and cytotoxicity were generated from isolated Gr-1(+)CD8(+) cells but not from Gr-1(-)CD8(+) T cells. We also demonstrated that therapeutic effect of MBL-2 tumor-immunized spleen cells was greatly reduced by anti-Gr-1 mAb-treatment. Thus, we initially demonstrated that anti-Gr-1 mAb might become a good tool to investigate a precise role for memory-type CD8(+) T cells in vivo. 相似文献

Molecularly defined synthetic vaccines capable of inducing both antibodies and cellular anti-tumor immune responses, in a
manner compatible with human delivery, are limited. Few molecules achieve this target without utilizing external immuno-adjuvants.
In this study, we explored a self-adjuvanting glyco-lipopeptide (GLP) as a platform for cancer vaccines using as a model MO5,
an OVA-expressing mouse B16 melanoma. A prototype B and T cell epitope-based GLP molecule was constructed by synthesizing
a chimeric peptide made of a CD8+ T cell epitope, from ovalbumin (OVA257–264) and an universal CD4+ T helper (Th) epitope (PADRE). The resulting CTL–Th peptide backbones was coupled to a carbohydrate B cell epitope based
on a regioselectively addressable functionalized templates (RAFT), made of four α-GalNAc molecules at C-terminal. The N terminus
of the resulting glycopeptides (GP) was then linked to a palmitic acid moiety (PAM), obviating the need for potentially toxic
external immuno-adjuvants. The final prototype OVA-GLP molecule, delivered in adjuvant-free PBS, in mice induced: (1) robust
RAFT-specific IgG/IgM that recognized tumor cell lines; (2) local and systemic OVA257–264-specific IFN-γ producing CD8+ T cells; (3) PADRE-specific CD4+ T cells; (4) OVA-GLP vaccination elicited a reduction of tumor size in mice inoculated with syngeneic murine MO5 carcinoma
cells and a protection from lethal carcinoma cell challenge; (5) finally, OVA-GLP immunization significantly inhibited the
growth of pre-established MO5 tumors. Our results suggest self-adjuvanting glyco-lipopeptide molecules as a platform for B
Cell, CD4+, and CD8+ T cell epitopes-based immunotherapeutic cancer vaccines.

Alpha tumor necrosis factor contributes to CD8(+) T cell survival in the transition phase 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Cytokine and costimulation signals determine CD8(+) T cell responses in proliferation phase. In this study, we assessed the potential effect of cytokines and costimulations to CD8(+) T cell survival in transition phase by transferring in vitro ovalbumin (OVA)-pulsed dendritic cell-activated CD8(+) T cells derived from OVA-specific T cell receptor transgenic OT I mice into wild-type C57BL/6 mice or mice with designated gene knockout. We found that deficiency of IL-10, IL-12, IFN-gamma, CD28, CD40, CD80, CD40L, and 41BBL in recipients did not affect CD8(+) T cell survival after adoptive transfer. In contrast, TNF-alpha deficiency in both recipients and donor CD8(+) effector T cells significantly reduced CD8(+) T cell survival. Therefore, our data demonstrate that the host- and T cell-derived TNF-alpha signaling contributes to CD8(+) effector T cell survival and their transition to memory T cells in the transition phase, and may be useful information when designing vaccination. 相似文献

We have developed a DNA vaccine encoding a fusion protein of ubiquitin (Ub) and target proteins at the N-terminus for effective induction of antigen-specific CD8+ T cells. A series of expression plasmids encoding a model antigen, ovalbumin (OVA), fused with mutated Ub, was constructed. Western blotting analyses using COS7 cells transfected with these plasmids revealed that there were three types of amino acid causing different binding capacities between Ub and OVA. Natural Ub with a C-terminal glycine readily dissociated from OVA; on the other hand, artificially mutated Ub, the C-terminal amino acid of which had been exchanged to valine or arginine, stably united with the polypeptide, while Ub with a C-terminal alanine partially dissociated. The ability of DNA vaccination to induce OVA-specific CD8+ T cells closely correlated with the stability of Ub fusion to OVA. Our strategy could be used to optimize the effect of genetic vaccines on the induction of CD8+ T cells. 相似文献

Targeted delivery of antigens to dendritic cells (DC) can be used to optimise immunisation. We investigated whether the efficacy with which immune responses are induced can be improved by targeting Ags to a C-type lectin receptor, Dectin-2. When anti-Dectin-2 mAbs were injected s.c., mAb binding was detected on a low percentage of DC in the draining lymph node. Ag conjugated to anti-Dectin-2 mAbs was presented efficiently to CD8+ T cells in vivo and elicited CD8+ T cell responses at low doses where free Ag failed to induce a response. The results reveal Dectin-2 as a potential targeting molecule for immunisation. 相似文献

We have been investigating whether alloantigen-specific CD4(+)25+ regulatory T cells can be identified for use in treating graft-versus-host disease. CD150, which is upregulated on the surface of all activated T lymphocytes, was identified as a candidate marker for alloantigen-activated CD4(+)25+ regulatory T cells by gene chip analysis. Freshly isolated CD4(+)25+ cells had only low cell-surface expression of CD150, comparable to that of CD4(+)25- T cells. Increased CD150 expression was observed on all T cells after coculture with allogeneic stimulator cells. When purified CD4(+)25+ cells were precultured with allogeneic stimulator cells, then sorted into CD150+ and CD150- subsets, allosuppressive activity was contained primarily in the CD150+ fraction. These cells also suppressed the proliferation of alloantigen-activated autologous T cells, and they could be expanded in vitro without loss of their suppressive capacity. These results suggest that CD150 can be used as a marker for the identification of purified alloantigen-activated CD4(+)25+ regulatory T cells. 相似文献

Semimature dendritic cells (smDCs) can induce autoimmune tolerance by activation of host antigen-specific CD4+CD25+ regulatory T (Treg) cells. We hypothesized that donor smDCs injected into recipients would induce effector T-cell hyporesponsiveness by activating CD4+CD25+Treg cells, and promote skin allograft survival. Myeloid smDCs were derived from C57BL/6J mice (donors) in vitro. BALB/c mice (recipients) were injected with smDCs to generate antigen-specific CD4+CD25+Treg cells in vivo. Allograft survival was prolonged when BALB/c recipients received either C57BL/6J smDCs prior to grafting or C57BL/6J smDC-derived CD4+CD25+Treg cells post-grafting, and skin flaps from these grafts showed the highest IL-10 production regardless of rapamycin treatments. Our findings confirm that smDCs constitute an independent subgroup of DCs that play a key role for inducing CD4+CD25+Treg cells to express high IL-10 levels, which induce hyporesponsiveness of effector T cells. Pre-treating recipients with donor smDCs may have potential for transplant tolerance induction. 相似文献

CD4(+) T cells co-expressing CD25 (CD4(+)CD25(+) T cells) have been identified as immunoregulatory suppressors modulating autoimmune response. Beside that, autoimmune response was supposed to be associated with malaria infection. Based on these data, we hypothesised that CD4(+)CD25(+) T cells may influence protective immunity to malaria parasites, while suppressing autoimmune response arising throughout the course of malarial infection. To test this possibility, we evaluated the kinetics of CD4(+)CD25(+) T cells during malaria infection and investigated the influence of CD25 depletion by anti-mouse CD25 monoclonal antibody (PC61) on the infection, using a mouse model of premunition to Plasmodium berghei NK65 malaria. The results showed that, during exacerbation of P. berghei NK65 infection, the proportion of CD4(+)CD25(+) T cells among CD4(+) T cells decreased, although that of CD4(+) T cells increased. CD25 depletion clearly delayed the growth of parasitaemia during parasite challenge, particularly in immunised mice. These findings demonstrated that CD4(+)CD25(+) T cells are able to influence protective immunity underlying premunition to P. berghei NK65 parasites. 相似文献

Alphabeta+ and gammadelta+ T cells have different mechanisms of epitope recognition and are stimulated by antigens of different chemical nature. An immunization model with antigens from the spirochete Brachyspira hyodysenteriae was used to examine the requirements for proliferation of circulating porcine CD4+ and gammadelta+ T cells in mixed lymphocyte cultures. CD4+ T cells only responded to stimulation with B. hyodysenteriae antigens, whereas gammadelta+ T cells proliferated when cultures were stimulated with either spirochetal antigens or interleukin-2 (IL-2). T cells that had proliferated expressed high levels of IL-2-receptor-alpha (IL-2Ralpha). Furthermore, neutralization of IL-2 at the beginning of the culture period was more efficient in blocking gammadelta+ than CD4+ T cell proliferation. Immunization induced interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) production by CD4+ T cells, whereas only a small fraction of the antigen-stimulated gammadelta+ T cells produced this cytokine. Our results indicate that, under the same environmental conditions, CD4+ T cell functions are more tightly regulated when compared to gammadelta+ T cells. We conclude that these differences are due, in part, to the enhanced gammadelta+ T cell responsiveness to IL-2. 相似文献

In a previous study, we established CD8+ suppressor T cell (Ts) clone 13G2 which produced the suppressive lymphokine, interleukin-10 (IL-10). In this study, we examined what physiological activator could induce both production of IL-10 from 13G2 and the proliferation of 13G2. Both the antigenic stimulation mimicked by the anti-CD3 antibody and the T cell growth factor interleukin-2 (IL-2) induced IL-10 production from the 13G2 clone equally well. 13G2 cells proliferated remarkably with IL-2 stimulation, while anti-CD3 only slightly induced proliferation of the clone. 13G2 cells also produced IL-10 in the presence of hydroxyurea which blocked transit of cells from G1 to S phase. However, cycloheximide blocked the production of IL-10 from the Ts clone. The study demonstrates that both the anti-CD3 antibody and IL-2 induced IL-10 synthesis of the Ts clone equally well, and the proliferative response of Ts cells was induced more by IL-2 than by anti-CD3. IL-2 proved to be a good stimulator for Ts cells to produce suppressive lymphokine and to multiply their population.Abbreviation Ts
