CD80 and CD86 both costimulate T cell activation. Their individual effects in vivo are difficult to study as they are coordinately up-regulated on APCs. We have studied mice expressing rat insulin promoter (RIP)-CD80 and RIP-CD86 on the NOD and NOD.scid genetic background to generate in vivo models, using diabetes as a readout for cytotoxic T cell activation. Accelerated spontaneous diabetes onset was observed in NOD-RIP-CD80 mice and the transfer of diabetes from 6-wk-old NOD mice to NOD.scid-RIP-CD80 mice was greater compared with NOD-RIP-CD86 and NOD.scid-RIP-CD86 mice, respectively. However, the secondary in vivo response was maintained if T cells were activated through CD86 costimulation compared with CD80. This was demonstrated by greater ability to cause recurrent diabetes in NOD-RIP-CD86 diabetic mice transplanted with 6-wk-old NOD islets and adoptively transferred diabetes from diabetic NOD-RIP-CD86 mice to NOD.scid mice. In vitro, CD80 costimulation enhanced cytotoxicity, proliferation, and cytokine secretion in activated CD8 T cells compared with CD86 costimulation. We demonstrated increased CTLA-4 and programmed death-1 inhibitory molecule expression following costimulation by both CD80 and CD86 (CD80 > CD86). Furthermore, T cells stimulated by CD80 were more susceptible to inhibition by CD4(+)CD25(+) T cells. Overall, while CD86 does not stimulate an initial response as strongly as CD80, there is greater sustained activity that is seen even in the absence of continued costimulation. These functions have implications for the engineered use of costimulatory molecules in altering immune responses in a therapeutic setting. 相似文献

Progression of spontaneous autoimmune diabetes is associated with development of a disease-countering negative-feedback regulatory loop that involves differentiation of low-avidity autoreactive CD8(+) cells into memory-like autoregulatory T cells. Such T cells blunt diabetes progression by suppressing the presentation of both cognate and noncognate Ags to pathogenic high-avidity autoreactive CD8(+) T cells in the pancreas-draining lymph nodes. In this study, we show that development of autoregulatory CD8(+) T cell memory is CD4(+) T cell dependent. Transgenic (TG) NOD mice expressing a low-affinity autoreactive TCR were completely resistant to autoimmune diabetes, even after systemic treatment of the mice with agonistic anti-CD40 or anti-4-1BB mAbs or autoantigen-pulsed dendritic cells, strategies that dramatically accelerate diabetes development in TG NOD mice expressing a higher affinity TCR for the same autoantigenic specificity. Furthermore, whereas abrogation of RAG-2 expression, hence endogenous CD4(+) T cell and B cell development, decelerated disease progression in high-affinity TCR-TG NOD mice, it converted the low-affinity TCR into a pathogenic one. In agreement with these data, polyclonal CD4(+) T cells from prediabetic NOD mice promoted disease in high-affinity TCR-TG NOD.Rag2(-/-) mice, but inhibited it in low-affinity TCR-TG NOD.Rag2(-/-) mice. Thus, in chronic autoimmune responses, CD4(+) Th cells contribute to both promoting and suppressing pathogenic autoimmunity. 相似文献

B cells are known to play an important role in the pathogenesis of several autoimmune diseases. NOD.H-2h4 mice develop spontaneous autoimmune thyroiditis (SAT) and anti-mouse thyroglobulin (MTg) autoantibodies, the levels of which correlate closely with the severity of thyroid lesions. NOD.H-2h4 mice genetically deficient in B cells (NOD.Kmu(null)) or rendered B cell-deficient by treatment from birth with anti-IgM develop minimal SAT. B cells were required some time in the first 4-6 wk after birth, because NOD.Kmu(null) or NOD.H-2h4 mice did not develop SAT when they were reconstituted with B cells as adults. The requirement for B cells was apparently not solely to produce anti-MTg autoantibodies, because passive transfer of anti-MTg Ab did not enable B cell-deficient mice to develop SAT, and mice given B cells as adults produced autoantibodies but did not develop SAT. B cell-deficient mice developed SAT if their T cells developed from bone marrow precursors in the presence of B cells. Because B cells are required early in life and their function cannot be replaced by anti-MTg autoantibodies, B cells may be required for the activation or selection of autoreactive T cells. These autoreactive T cells are apparently unable to respond to Ag if B cells are absent in the first 4-6 wk after birth. 相似文献

Nearly 100% of NOD.H-2h4 mice develop spontaneous autoimmune thyroiditis (SAT) and produce anti-mouse thyroglobulin autoantibodies when they receive 0.05% NaI in their drinking water beginning at 8 wk of age. Our previous studies showed that TGFbeta1 mRNA was constitutively expressed in thyroids and spleens of normal NOD.H-2h4 mice but not other strains of mice. To determine whether TGFbeta might have a role in SAT, mice were given anti-TGFbeta mAb at various times during development of SAT. Anti-TGFbeta markedly inhibited development of SAT and production of anti-mouse thyroglobulin IgG1 autoantibodies. Anti-TGFbeta was most effective in inhibiting SAT when given during the time thyroid lesions were developing, i.e., starting 4 wk after administration of NaI water. The active form of the TGFbeta1 protein was present in thyroids of mice with SAT but not in normal NOD.H-2h4 thyroids. However, thyrocytes of normal NOD.H-2h4 thyroids did express latent TGFbeta1. TGFbeta1 protein expression in the thyroid correlated with SAT severity scores, and administration of anti-TGFbeta inhibited TGFbeta1 protein expression in both the thyroid and spleen. TGFbeta1 was produced primarily by inflammatory cells and was primarily localized in areas of the thyroid containing clusters of CD4(+) T and B cells. Depletion of CD8(+) T cells had no effect on TGFbeta1 protein expression. Activation of splenic T cells was apparently not inhibited by anti-TGFbeta, because up-regulation of mRNA for cytokines and other T cell activation markers was similar for control and anti-TGFbeta-treated mice. TGFbeta1 may function by promoting migration to, or retention of, inflammatory cells in the thyroid. 相似文献

In the nonobese diabetic (NOD) mouse, pathogenic and suppressor CD4(+) T cells can be distinguished by the constitutive expression of CD25. In this study, we demonstrate that the progression of autoimmune diabetes in NOD mice reflects modifications in both T cell subsets. CD4(+)CD25(+) suppressor T cells from 8-, but not 16-wk-old NOD mice delayed the onset of diabetes transferred by 16-wk-old CD25-depleted spleen cells. These results were paralleled by the inhibition of alloantigen-induced proliferation of CD4(+)CD25(-) cells, indicating an age-dependent decrease in suppressive activity. In addition, CD4(+)CD25(-) pathogenic T cells became progressively less sensitive to immunoregulation by CD4(+)CD25(+) T cells during diabetes development. CD4(+)CD25(-) T cells showed a higher proliferation and produced more IFN-gamma, but less IL-4 and IL-10, whereas CD4(+)CD25(+) T suppressor cells produced significantly lower levels of IL-10 in 16- compared with 8-wk-old NOD mice. Consistent with these findings, a higher frequency of Th1 cells was observed in the pancreas of 16-wk-old compared with 8-wk-old NOD mice. An increased percentage of CD4(+)CD25(-) T cells expressing CD54 was present in 16-wk-old and in diabetic NOD, but not in BALB/c mice. Costimulation via CD54 increased the proliferation of CD4(+)CD25(-) T cells from 16-, but not 8-wk-old NOD mice, and blocking CD54 prevented their proliferation, consistent with the role of CD54 in diabetes development. Thus, the pathogenesis of autoimmune diabetes in NOD mice is correlated with both an enhanced pathogenicity of CD4(+)CD25(-) T cells and a decreased suppressive activity of CD4(+)CD25(+) T cells. 相似文献

Iodine is an essential trace element for thyroid hormone synthesis and metabolism, either low or high intake may lead to thyroid
disease, but the pathogenetic mechanisms by which iodine interacts with the thyroid autoimmune are poorly understood. We investigated
the dynamic changes of CD4+CD25+ regulatory T cells in NOD.H-2h4 mice with iodine-induced autoimmune thyroiditis (AIT), and explore potential immune mechanism of AIT induced by iodine. NOD.H-2h4 mice were randomly divided into two groups, and received plain water or water containing 0.005% sodium iodide. Eight weeks
after iodine provision, the incidences of thyroiditis, relative weights of thyroids, and serum thyroglobulin antibody titers
in the iodine-supplied groups were significantly increased compared to the control groups (p < 0.05). The AIT mice had fewer CD4+CD25+Foxp3+ T cells and reduced Foxp3 mRNA expression in splenocytes compared with the controls (p < 0.01), and maintained relatively low levels during the development of thyroiditis. The changes described above aggravated
gradually with the extension of iodine treatment. These data suggest that CD4+CD25+ regulatory T cells may be involved in the pathogenesis and development of AIT induced by iodine. 相似文献

Cachexia is the dramatic weight loss and muscle atrophy seen in chronic disease states, including autoimmunity, cancer, and infection, and is often associated with lymphopenia. We have previously shown that CD4(+) T cells that express the lowest density of CD44 (CD4(+)CD44(v.low)) are significantly reduced in diabetic NOD mice that are cachexic compared with diabetic mice that are not cachexic. Using this model, and a model of cancer cachexia, we test the hypothesis that CD4(+)CD44(v.low) cells play an active role in protecting the host from cachexia. CD4(+)CD44(v.low) cells, but not CD4(+) cells depleted of CD44(v.low) cells, delay the onset of wasting when infused into either diabetic or prediabetic NOD recipients. However, no significant effect on the severity of diabetes was detected. In a model of cancer cachexia, they significantly reduce muscle atrophy, and inhibit muscle protein loss and DNA loss, even when given after the onset of cachexia. Protection from wasting and muscle atrophy by CD4(+)CD44(v.low) cells is associated with protection from lymphopenia. These data suggest, for the first time, a role for an immune cell subset in protection from cachexia, and further suggest that the mechanism of protection is independent of protection from autoimmunity. 相似文献

We previously described the NOD.c3c4 mouse, which is protected from type 1 diabetes (T1D) because of protective alleles at multiple insulin-dependent diabetes (Idd) genes, but develops autoimmune biliary disease (ABD) resembling primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC). In this paper, we characterize the NOD.ABD strain, which is genetically related to the NOD.c3c4 strain but develops both ABD and T1D. Histologically, NOD.ABD biliary disease is indistinguishable from that in NOD.c3c4 mice. The frequency of effector memory (CD44(+)CD62L(-)) and central memory (CD44(+)CD62L(+)) CD8 T cells is significantly increased in the intrahepatic lymphocyte fraction of NOD.ABD mice, and NOD.ABD CD8 T cells produce more IFN-γ and TNF-α, compared with controls. NOD.ABD splenocytes can transfer ABD and T1D to NOD.c3c4 scid mice, but only T1D to NOD scid mice, suggesting that the genetic origin of the target organ and/or its innate immune cells is critical to disease pathogenesis. The disease transfer model, importantly, shows that biliary duct damage (characteristic of PBC) and inflammation precede biliary epithelial cell proliferation. Unlike T1D where both CD4 and CD8 T cells are required for disease transfer, purified NOD.ABD CD8 T cells can transfer liver inflammation into NOD.c3c4 scid recipients, and disease transfer is ameliorated by cotransferring T regulatory cells. Unlike NOD.c3c4 mice, NOD.ABD mice do not develop anti-nuclear or anti-Smith autoantibodies; however, NOD.ABD mice do develop the antipyruvate dehydrogenase Abs typical of human PBC. The NOD.ABD strain is a model of immune dysregulation affecting two organ systems, most likely by mechanisms that do not completely coincide. 相似文献

Non-obese diabetic (NOD) mice develop spontaneous T-cell responses against pancreatic beta-cells, leading to islet cell destruction and diabetes. Despite high genetic similarity, non-obese resistant (NOR) mice do not develop diabetes. We show here that spleen cells of both NOD and NOR mice respond to the islet cell antigen glutamic acid decarboxylase-65 in IFN-gamma-ELISPOT assays. Moreover, NOR-T cells induce periinsulitis in NOD SCID recipient mice. Thus, a potentially pathogenic islet cell-specific T-cell response arises in NOR and NOD mice alike; the mechanism that prevents the autoimmune progression of self-reactive T cells in NOR mice presumably acts at the level of effector function. Consistent with this hypothesis, CD4+CD25+ cell-depleted spleen cells from NOR mice mediated islet cell destruction and overt diabetes in NOD SCID mice. Therefore, islet cell-specific effector cells in NOR mice appear to be under the control of CD4+CD25+ regulatory T cells, confirming the importance of regulatory cells in the control of autoimmune diabetes. 相似文献

Nonobese diabetic (NOD) mice expressing the BDC2.5 TCR transgene are useful for studying type 1 diabetes. Several peptides have been identified that are highly active in stimulating BDC2.5 T cells. Herein, we describe the use of I-Ag7 tetramers containing two such peptides, p79 and p17, to detect and characterize peptide-specific T cells. The tetramers could stain CD4(+) T cells in the islets and spleens of BDC2.5 transgenic mice. The percentage of CD4(+), tetramer(+) T cells increased in older mice, and it was generally higher in the islets than in the spleens. Our results also showed that tetAg7/p79 could stain a small population of CD4(+) T cells in both islets and spleens of NOD mice. The percentage of CD4(+), tetramer(+) T cells increased in cells that underwent further cell division after being activated by peptides. The avidity of TCRs on purified tetAg7/p79(+) T cells for tetAg7/p79 was slightly lower than that of BDC2.5 T cells. Although tetAg7/p79(+) T cells, like BDC2.5 T cells, secreted a large quantity of IFN-gamma, they were biased toward being IL-10-producing cells. Additionally, <3% of these cells expressed TCR Vbeta4. In vivo adoptive transfer experiments showed that NOD/scid recipient mice cotransferred with tetAg7/p79(+) T cells and NOD spleen cells, like mice transferred with NOD spleen cells only, developed diabetes. Therefore, we have generated Ag-specific tetramers that could detect a heterogeneous population of T cells, and a very small number of NOD mouse T cells may represent BDC2.5-like cells. 相似文献

The 524--543 region of glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD65), GAD65(524--543), is one of the first fragments of this islet Ag to induce proliferative T cell responses in the nonobese diabetic (NOD) mouse model of spontaneous autoimmune diabetes. Furthermore, NOD mice given tolerogenic doses of GAD65(524--543) are protected from spontaneous and cyclophosphamide-induced diabetes. In this study, we report that there are at least two I-A(g7)-restricted determinants present in the GAD65(524--543) sequence, each capable of recruiting unique T cell repertoires characterized by distinct TCR V beta gene use. CD4(+) T cells arise spontaneously in young NOD mice to an apparently dominant determinant found within the GAD65 peptide 530--543 (p530); however, T cells to the overlapping determinant 524-538 (p524) dominate the response only after immunization with GAD65(524--543). All p530-responsive T cells used the V beta 4 gene, whereas the V beta 12 gene is preferentially used to encode the TCR of p524-responsive T cell populations. T cell clones and hybridomas from both of these T cell groups were responsive to APC pulsed with GAD65(524--543) or whole rGAD65. p524-reactive cells appeared to be regulatory upon adoptive transfer into young NOD mice and could inhibit insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus development, although they were unable to produce IL-4, IL-10, or TGF beta upon antigenic challenge. Furthermore, we found that i.p. injection with p524/IFA was very effective in providing protection from cyclophosphamide-induced insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus. These data demonstrate that the regulatory T cells elicited by immunizing with GAD65(524--543) are unique and distinct from those that arise from spontaneous endogenous priming, and that T cells to this limited region of GAD65 may be either regulatory or pathogenic. 相似文献

Iodine-rich herbs such as seaweed, kelp, and sea tangle were widely used to treat various types of goiter with good effect and without any adverse side effects in China. When compared with potassium iodate (PI), iodine-rich herbs had a positive effect on the recovery of goiter resulting from iodine deficiency without any obvious harmful effects. In NOD.H-2h4 mice, an autoimmune thyroiditis-prone model, iodine excess can increase infiltration of lymphocytes and structural damage of the thyroid follicles, hence resulting in thyroiditis. Until now, there has been little research on the comparative effects of PI and iodine-rich herbs on thyroid in an autoimmune thyroiditis-prone model. This study was designed to compare the different effects of iodine-rich herbs and PI on the thyroid gland in iodine-deficient NOD.H-2h4 mice. Excessive intake of PI cause oxidative injury in the thyroid gland and increase the risk of autoimmune thyroiditis, while iodine-rich herbs cause less oxidative injury, significantly enhancing antioxidant capacity, and inhibit the high differentiation of Th17 cells in the thyroid glands of NOD.H-2h4 mice. 相似文献

CD8(+) T cells kill pancreatic β-cells in a cell-cell contact-dependent mechanism in the non-obese diabetic mouse. CD4(+) T lymphocytes are also able to kill pancreatic β-cells, but they do not directly contact β-cells and may use another cell type as the actual cytotoxic cell. Natural killer (NK) cells could have this role but it is uncertain whether they are cytotoxic towards β-cells. Therefore, the requirement for NK cells in β-cell destruction in the CD4-dependent T-cell antigen receptor transgenic NOD4.1 mice was examined. NK cells failed to kill β-cells in vitro, even in the absence of major histocompatibility complex class I. We observed only 9.7±1.1% of islet infiltrating NK cells from NOD4.1 mice expressing the degranulation marker CD107a. Diabetogenic CD4(+) T cells transferred disease to NODscid.IL2Rγ(-/-) mice lacking NK cells, indicating that NK cells do not contribute to β-cell death in vitro or in vivo. However, depletion of NK cells reduced diabetes incidence in NOD4.1 mice, suggesting that NK cells may help to maintain the right environment for cytotoxicity of effector cells. 相似文献

B cells are important for the development of most autoimmune diseases. B cell depletion immunotherapy has emerged as an effective treatment for several human autoimmune diseases, although it is unclear whether B cells are necessary for disease induction, autoantibody production, or disease progression. To address the role of B cells in a murine model of spontaneous autoimmune thyroiditis (SAT), B cells were depleted from adult NOD.H-2h4 mice using anti-mouse CD20 mAb. Anti-CD20 depleted most B cells in peripheral blood and cervical lymph nodes and 50-80% of splenic B cells. Flow cytometry analysis showed that marginal zone B cells in the spleen were relatively resistant to depletion by anti-CD20, whereas most follicular and transitional (T2) B cells were depleted after anti-CD20 treatment. When anti-CD20 was administered before development of SAT, development of SAT and anti-mouse thyroglobulin autoantibody responses were reduced. Anti-CD20 also reduced SAT severity and inhibited further increases in anti-mouse thyroglobulin autoantibodies when administered to mice that already had autoantibodies and thyroid inflammation. The results suggest that B cells are necessary for initiation as well as progression or maintenance of SAT in NOD.H-2h4 mice. 相似文献

Islet Ag-specific CD4(+) T cells receive antigenic stimulation from MHC class II-expressing APCs. Herein, we delineate the direct in vivo necessity for distinct subsets of macrophages and dendritic cells (DC) in type 1 diabetes mellitus of the NOD mouse by using diphtheria toxin-mediated cell ablation. The ablation of macrophages had no impact on islet Ag presentation or on the induction of insulitis or diabetes in either transfer or spontaneous models. However, the ablation of CD11b(+)CD11c(+) DC led to the loss of T cell activation, insulitis, and diabetes mediated by CD4(+) T cells. When the specific myeloid DC subset was "added-back" to mice lacking total DC, insulitis and diabetes were restored. Interestingly, when NOD mice were allowed to progress to the insulitis phase, the ablation of DC led to accelerated insulitis. This accelerated insulitis was mediated by the loss of plasmacytoid DC (pDC). When pDC were returned to depleted mice, the localized regulation of insulitis was restored. The loss of pDC in the pancreas itself was accompanied by the localized loss of IDO and the acceleration of insulitis. Thus, CD11c(+)CD11b(+) DC and pDC have countervailing actions in NOD diabetes, with myeloid DC providing critical antigenic stimulation to naive CD4(+) T cells and pDC providing regulatory control of CD4(+) T cell function in the target tissue. 相似文献

CD8(+) T cells can be important effector cells in autoimmune inflammation, generally because they can damage target cells by cytotoxicity. This study shows that activated CD8(+) T cells induce thyroid epithelial cell hyperplasia and proliferation and fibrosis in IFN-γ(-/-) NOD.H-2h4 SCID mice in the absence of CD4(+) T cells. Because CD8(+) T cells induce proliferation rather than cytotoxicity of target cells, these results describe a novel function for CD8(+) T cells in autoimmune disease. In contrast to the ability of purified CD8(+) T cells to induce thyrocyte proliferation, CD4(+) T cells or CD8 T cell-depleted splenocytes induced only mild thyroid lesions in SCID recipients. T cells in both spleens and thyroids highly produce TNF-α. TNF-α promotes proliferation of thyrocytes in vitro, and anti-TNF-α inhibits development of thyroid epithelial cell hyperplasia and proliferation in SCID recipients of IFN-γ(-/-) splenocytes. This suggests that targeting CD8(+) T cells and/or TNF-α may be effective for treating epithelial cell hyperplasia and fibrosis. 相似文献

Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) is a widely used model of multiple sclerosis. In NOD mice, EAE develops as a relapsing-remitting disease that transitions to a chronic progressive disease, making the NOD model the only mouse model that recapitulates the full clinical disease course observed in most multiple sclerosis patients. We have generated a TCR transgenic mouse that expresses the α- and β-chains of a myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) 35-55-reactive TCR (1C6) on the NOD background. 1C6 TCR transgenic mice spontaneously generate both CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells that recognize MOG and produce proinflammatory cytokines, allowing for the first time to our knowledge the simultaneous examination of myelin-reactive CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells in the same host. 1C6 CD8(+) T cells alone can induce optic neuritis and mild EAE with delayed onset; however, 1C6 CD4(+) T cells alone induce severe EAE and predominate in driving disease when both cell types are present. When 1C6 mice are crossed with mice bearing an IgH specific for MOG, the mice develop spontaneous EAE with high incidence, but surprisingly the disease pattern does not resemble the neuromyelitis optica-like disease observed in mice bearing CD4(+) T cells and B cells reactive to MOG on the C57BL/6 background. Collectively, our data show that although myelin-reactive CD8(+) T cells contribute to disease, disease is primarily driven by myelin-reactive CD4(+) T cells and that the coexistence of myelin-reactive T and B cells does not necessarily result in a distinct pathological phenotype. 相似文献

Programmed death-1 ligand 1 (PD-L1) is a coinhibitory molecule that negatively regulates multiple tolerance checkpoints. In the NOD mouse model, PD-L1 regulates the development of diabetes. PD-L1 has two binding partners, programmed death-1 and B7-1, but the significance of the PD-L1:B7-1 interaction in regulating self-reactive T cell responses is not yet clear. To investigate this issue in NOD mice, we have compared the effects of two anti-PD-L1 Abs that have different blocking activities. Anti-PD-L1 mAb 10F.2H11 sterically and functionally blocks only PD-L1:B7-1 interactions, whereas anti-PD-L1 mAb 10F.9G2 blocks both PD-L1:B7-1 and PD-L1:programmed death-1 interactions. Both Abs had potent, yet distinct effects in accelerating diabetes in NOD mice: the single-blocker 10F.2H11 mAb was more effective at precipitating diabetes in older (13-wk-old) than in younger (6- to 7-wk-old) mice, whereas the dual-blocker 10F.9G2 mAb rapidly induced diabetes in NOD mice of both ages. Similarly, 10F.2H11 accelerated diabetes in recipients of T cells from diabetic, but not prediabetic mice, whereas 10F.9G2 was effective in both settings. Both anti-PD-L1 mAbs precipitated diabetes in adoptive transfer models of CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cell-driven diabetes. Taken together, these data demonstrate that the PD-L1:B7-1 pathway inhibits potentially pathogenic self-reactive effector CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cell responses in vivo, and suggest that the immunoinhibitory functions of this pathway may be particularly important during the later phases of diabetogenesis. 相似文献
