It remains unknown why the T cell tolerance to nuclear autoantigens is impaired in systemic autoimmune diseases. To clarify this, we generated transgenic mice expressing OVA mainly in the nuclei (Ld-nOVA mice). When CD4+ T cells from DO11.10 mice expressing a TCR specific for OVA(323-339) were transferred into Ld-nOVA mice, they were rendered anergic, but persisted in vivo for at least 3 mo. These cells expressed CD44(high), CD45RB(low), and were generated after multiple cell divisions, suggesting that anergy is not the result of insufficient proliferative stimuli. Whereas dendritic cells (DCs) from Ld-nOVA (DCs derived from transgenic mice (TgDCs)), which present rather low amount of the self-peptide, efficiently induced proliferation of DO11.10 T cells, divided T cells stimulated in vivo by TgDCs exhibited a lower memory response than T cells stimulated in vitro by peptide-pulsed DCs. Furthermore, we found that repeated transfer of either TgDCs or DCs derived from wild-type mice pulsed with a lower concentration of OVA(323-339) induced a lower response of DO11.10 T cells in Ag-free wild-type recipients than DCs derived from wild-type mice. These results suggest that peripheral tolerance to a nuclear autoantigen is achieved by continuous presentation of the self-peptide by DCs, and that the low expression level of the peptide might also be involved in the induction of hyporesponsiveness. 相似文献

We have been examining the mechanisms that control in vivo development and down regulation of cytolytic T lymphocytes (CTL) to trinitrophenyl (TNP)-altered self antigens. In vivo generation of hapten-specific CTL requires an auxiliary antigenic stimulus, which can be provided by H-2 compatible but Mls-disparate cells. These experiments were designed to study the effect of tolerization with such Mls-disparate cells on CTL development. C3H/HeN (H-2k, Mlsc ) mice sensitized in the footpads with C3H-TNP spleen cells plus CBA/J (H-2k, Mlsd ) spleen cells develop CTL in the draining lymph nodes that will lyse 51Cr-labeled TNP-modified C3H targets. However, we have found that if C3H/HeN mice are given tolerizing doses of CBA/J spleen cells 5 to 7 days before sensitization, a splenic suppressor T cell (Ts) appears. This Ts will suppress CTL development in its tolerant host, and can be transferred adoptively to function in naive mice. Ts and its precursor are cyclophosphamide insensitive and therefore different from the naturally existing suppressor cell present in mice. When triggered by cells with Mlsd , the Ts produces a factor (TsF) that hinders helper factors from functioning in an in vitro CTL assay. Furthermore, TsF acts to prevent utilization of IL 2 by an IL 2-dependent cell line. Thus, evidence has been provided that the in vivo generation of CTL toward hapten-altered self can be down regulated at the level of helper signals by a Ts. The latter is inducible by the Mls-disparate cells that are needed at a different site to trigger the helper factors in this CTL system. 相似文献

Tolerance to dinitrochlorobenzene contact sensitivity induced i.v. injection of dinitrobenzenesulfonic acid in guinea pigs is a long-lasting phenomenon (up to 1 year). The tolerogen, however, was traceable in the circulation only up to 3 months after its application. In spite of that, tolerance was adoptively transferred by parabiosis 6 months after being induced. Moreover, active suppressor cells eliminated by cyclophosphamide treatment are able to regenerate in those adoptively tolerized animals. These results indicate that the tolerogenic injection stimulates precursors of suppressor cells to generate active suppressor cells and memory cells of suppression. The further formation of active suppressor cells from memory cells seems to be tolerogen independent, but the existence of specific stimulator cells for suppression may be considered. These cells may bind undetectable small amounts of tolerogen. The recovery of suppression might, however, be also due to recovery of suppressor cells which were temporarily inactivated but not destroyed by cyclophosphamide treatment. 相似文献

T cell suppression exerted by regulatory T cells represents a well-established phenomenon, but the mechanisms involved are still a matter of debate. Recent data suggest that anergic T cells can suppress responder T cell activation by inhibiting Ag presentation by dendritic cells (DC). In this study, we focused our attention on the mechanisms that regulate the susceptibility of DC to suppressive signals and analyzed the fate of DC and responder T cells. To address this issue, we have cocultured human alloreactive or Ag-specific CD4+ T cell clones, rendered anergic by incubation with immobilized anti-CD3 Ab, with autologous DC and responder T cells. We show that anergic T cells affect either Ag-presenting functions or survival of DC, depending whether immature or mature DC are used as APC. Indeed, MHC and costimulatory molecule expression on immature DC activated by responder T cells is inhibited, while apoptotic programs are induced in mature DC and in turn in responder T cells. Ligation of CD95 by CD95L expressed on anergic T cells in the absence of CD40-CD40L (CD154) interaction are critical parameters in eliciting apoptosis in both DC and responder T cells. In conclusion, these findings indicate that the defective activation of CD40 on DC by CD95L+ CD154-defective anergic T cells could be the primary event in determining T cell suppression and support the role of CD40 signaling in regulating both conditioning and survival of DC. 相似文献

Regulatory CD4(+) T cells are known to develop during the induction of donor-specific peripheral tolerance to transplanted tissues; it is proposed that such tolerance is a consequence of persistent, danger-free stimulation by Ag. To test this hypothesis, male RAG-1(-/-) mice were recolonized with small numbers of monospecific CD4(+) T cells specific for the male H-2E(k)-restricted Ag Dby. After 6 wk in the male environment, the monospecific CD4(+) T cells, having recolonized the host, had become anergic to stimulation in vitro and had acquired a regulatory capacity. CD4(+) T cells in these mice expressed higher levels of CTLA-4 and glucocorticoid-induced TNF-related receptor than naive CD4(+) T cells, but only 3% of the recolonizing cells were CD25(+) and did not express significant foxP3 mRNA. In vivo, these tolerant T cells could censor accumulation of, and IFN-gamma production by, naive T cells, with only a slight inhibition of proliferation. This suppressive effect was not reversed by the addition of fresh bone marrow-derived male dendritic cells. These results suggest that persistent exposure to Ag in conditions that fail to evoke proinflammatory stimuli leads to the development of T cells that are both anergic and regulatory. 相似文献

Replication of cytomegalovirus (CMV) is largely controlled by the cellular arm of the immune response. In this study the CMV-specific CD4 T-cell response was characterized in a cohort of apparently healthy individuals. In 11% of all individuals, extremely high frequencies, between 10 and 40%, were found. High-level frequencies of CMV-specific CD4 T cells persisted over several months and were not the result of an acute infection. Specific T cells were oligoclonal and were phenotypically and functionally characterized as mature effector cells, with both cytokine-secreting and proliferative potential. These high-level frequencies do not seem to compromise the immune response towards heterologous infections, and no signs of immunopathology were observed. Whereas a large temporary expansion of virus-specific T cells is well known to occur during acute infection, we now show that extremely high frequencies of virus-specific T cells may continuously exist in chronic CMV infection without overtly compromising the remaining protective immunity. 相似文献

Regulatory responses in contact sensitivity: afferent suppressor T cells inhibit the activation of efferent suppressor T cells. 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Two types of suppressor cells regulate the contact sensitivity (CS) response to picryl chloride (PCL). Afferent suppressor T cells (Ts-aff) inhibit the generation of CS responses to PCL, while efferent suppressor T cells (Ts-eff) inhibit the activity of Th 1 cells that mediate CS reaction. Intravenous injection of mice with TNP-substituted peritoneal exudate cells (TNP-PEC) induces Ts-eff cells that block the adoptive transfer of contact sensitivity. The induction of Ts-eff cells is prevented by the presence of Ts-aff cells, which in turn are induced by the injection of TNP-PEC coupled with antibodies of the IgG2a and IgG2b isotype (TNP-PEC-Ab). If an animal is injected with TNP-PEC prior to or simultaneously with TNP-PEC-Ab, it generates only Ts-aff cells, while if it is injected with TNP-PEC alone or TNP-PEC prior to TNP-PEC-Ab, it generates Ts-eff cells. Ts-aff cells effect only the generation of Ts-eff cells, as the addition of Ts-eff cells to assays for Ts-eff cells has no inhibitory effect on the suppressive effects of Ts-eff cells in adoptive transfer. Our experiments show that Ts-aff cells induced by TNP-PEC-Ab are phenotypically either Lyt 1+2- or Lyt 1-2+, but only the latter inhibit the generation of Ts-eff cells in vivo. The Ts-aff cells that inhibit Ts-eff activity adhere to the lectin Vicia villosa (VV), while Ts-eff cells are VV nonadherent. In addition, Ts-aff cells can prevent the generation of Ts-eff to linked haptens presented on the same PEC. It appears that a cascade of Ts cell interactions are involved in the regulation of CS responses. 相似文献

Concanavalin A (Con A)-activated T lymphocytes from patients with active, but not inactive, systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) failed to express normal suppressor activity, regardless of the phenotype of CD4+ or CD8+. Con A-activated CD4+ or CD8+ T lymphocytes from the SLE patients and from normal controls were further separated into two populations, using the autologous erythrocyte rosette technique. One population very rich in cells capable of forming rosettes with autologous erythrocytes from the active patients showed the same degree of suppressor activity, as did that from normal controls; the CD4+ or CD8+ population poor in autorosetting cells derived from Con A-activated T lymphocytes from both the controls and patients did not express suppressor activity. Moreover, when autorosetting T cells from the active patients and nonrosetting cells from the same patients were mixed at a normal ratio (4:6), normal suppressor activity could be restored. It was notable that the frequency of autorosette-forming cells was markedly reduced in the Con A-activated T lymphocytes from the active, but not inactive, SLE patients, regardless of the phenotype of CD4+ or CD8+. These findings indicate the presence of a normally functioning suppressor T cell population in patients with active SLE. It seems that the lack of suppressor T cell function in patients with active SLE is due to the dilution of a few normal suppressor T cells by large numbers of nonsuppressor T lymphocytes. 相似文献

Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids enriched fish oil exerts beneficial anti-inflammatory effects in animal models with acute and chronic inflammatory diseases. Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs), comprised of myeloid progenitors and precursors of myeloid cells, play vital roles in cancer. How fish oil affects the generation of MDSCs and the tumor development remains largely unexplored. Here, we show that dietary intake of high fish oil diet suppresses CD8+ T cells activation and proliferation in vivo via elevated levels of MDSCs. Mechanistically, high fish oil diet induces the expression of immunosuppressive cytokine IL-10 and promotes myelopoiesis in the spleen as well as other peripheral tissues. The immature myeloid cells in the spleen exhibit morphological and functional characteristics of MDSCs with the capability to downregulate CD8+ T cells activation. Depletion of MDSCs using anti-Gr-1 antibody decreases the growth of subcutaneously transferred B16 melanoma in mice on high fish oil diet. Interestingly, diet-induced production of MDSCs is not solely dependent of the spleen, as splenectomy has no effect on the tumor progress. Our data show that the liver functions as an alternative extramedullary hematopoiesis organ to support MDSCs differentiation and maintain tumor growth. Taken together, our study provides a novel insight into the physiological effects of fish oil and points to MDSCs as a possible mediator linking dietary fish oil intake and immunosuppression in cancer immunosurveillance. 相似文献

Modulation of SLE induction in naive mice by specific T cells with suppressor activity to pathogenic anti-DNA idiotype. 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
T cells (CD8+) with specific suppressor activity against anti-dsDNA antibody (16/6 Id+) were generated in vitro. The cells were established from BALB/c-enriched T cells exposed in vitro to silica beads coated with the pathogenic anti-DNA idiotype, 16/6. The idiotype specificity of the suppressor cells was demonstrated by (a) specific induction of a decrease in proliferative response of T helper cell lines specific for the pathogenic idiotype (16/6 Id), when exposed to the idiotype, with no effect on T cell lines with other specificities, e.g., against human IgM or synthetic polypeptide. (b) Effectively suppressing in vitro antibody production of anti-16/6 antibody, employing 16/6-primed B cells and specific helper T cell line. The 16/6 Id-specific Ts cells were found to be MHC restricted. Weekly intravenous injections of 10(7) 16/6 Id-specific Ts cells given to BALB/c mice at different stages of experimental SLE disease prevented the clinical, serological, and pathological manifestations. This effect was characterized by decreased titers of autoantibodies (e.g., anti-DNA, anti-Sm antibodies) in the sera, by abolishment of the proteinuria, leukopenia, and the increased ESR, followed by decreased immunoglobulin deposition in the kidneys. Treating the mice with control IgM-specific T cells did not affect the above parameters. These studies demonstrate the ability to generate Ts cells specific for pathogenic idiotypes. The method might be employed therapeutically to modulate the course of autoimmune conditions. 相似文献

Previously, we reported that tolerance to nickel, induced by oral administration of Ni(2+) ions, can be adoptively transferred to naive mice with only 10(2) splenic T cells. Here we show that 10(2) T cell-depleted spleen cells (i.e., APCs) from orally tolerized donors can also transfer nickel tolerance. This cannot be explained by simple passive transfer of the tolerogen. The APCs from orally tolerized donors displayed a reduced allostimulatory capacity, a tolerogenic phenotype, and an increased expression of CD38 on B cells. In fact, it was B cells among the APCs that carried the thrust of tolerogenicity. Through serial adoptive transfers with Ly5.1(+) donors and two successive sets of Ly5.2(+) recipients, we demonstrated that nickel tolerance was infectiously spread from donor to host cells. After the transfer of either T cells or APCs from orally tolerized donors, the spread of tolerance to the opposite cell type of the recipients (i.e., APCs and T cells, respectively) required recipient immunization with NiCl(2)/H(2)O(2). For the spread of tolerance from a given donor cell type, T cell or APC, to the homologous host cell type, the respective opposite cell type in the host was required as intermediate. We conclude that T suppressor cells and tolerogenic APCs induced by oral administration of nickel are part of a positive feedback loop that can enhance and maintain tolerance when activated by Ag associated with a danger signal. Under these conditions, APCs and T suppressor effector cells infectiously spread the tolerance to naive T cells and APCs, respectively. 相似文献

Summary The spleen cells from mice injected 2 weeks previously with high doses of BCG have a lower reactivity as shown when they are engaged in a graft versus host reaction or in a mixed lymphocyte reaction. This suppression is an active and nonspecific phenomenon, at least partly attributable to the T-cell population.This work was supported by CRAMP and Action urgente DGRST 74-7-11-85, by CRL 74.5.015.01 from the Institut National de la Santé et de la Recherche médicale. 相似文献

Tolerance and contact sensitivity to DNFB in mice. VI. Inhibition of afferent sensitivity by suppressor T cells in adoptive tolerance. 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

Tolerance in contact sensitivity to DNFB can be adoptively transferred to normal mice with lymph node cells from tolerant donors. This tolerance is antigen specific and is mediated by T cells, i.e., "suppressor" T cells. Experiments were carried out to investigate the mechanism(s) by which the suppressor T cells induce tolerance to DNFB contact sensitivity. The suppressor cells were effective only if they were present during the early stages of the afferent limb of sensitization. As measured by DNA synthesis, cell proliferation in the draining lymph nodes of recipients of suppressor cells was found to be significantly less than in control animals indicating that the suppressor cells acted, at least in part, by limiting or inhibiting DNFB-induced cell proliferation. This inhibition was shown to be antigen specific since the DNFB suppressor cells did not inhibit cell proliferation induced by oxazolone, an unrelated contact sensitizer. The ability to DNFB tolerant cells to block afferent sensitization pathways differs from the mechanism of tolerance to picryl chloride, reported by others, where efferent pathways are blocked. 相似文献

Concanavalin A (Con A) stimulated the IgM-binding subpopulation of human T cells (TM) to suppress the pokeweed mitogen-induced differentiation of B lymphocytes to plasma cells. Control TM cells that had not been Con A activated did not suppress. The degree of suppression was related to the number of Con A-TM cells added to the cultures and it was abolished by irradiation of the T lymphocytes either before or after the 24-hr culture period with Con A. Suppression did not require the presence of TG cells, whose suppressor potential has been previously established. These findings indicate that suppressor activity is not confined to the TG subpopulation but may be expressed by TM cells also. 相似文献

We studied the cellular immune responses to ocular anterior chamber (AC) priming of mice. A/J mice primed subcutaneously with azobenzenearsonate-coupled spleen cells (ABA-SC) manifested delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) in the form of footpad swelling when challenged 5 days later with the diazonium salt of ABA. Mice inoculated with ABA-SC in the anterior chamber at the time of subcutaneous priming, however, were tolerant to ABA. Subconjunctival inoculation with ABA-SC did not tolerize; rather it primed for DTH. Antibodies against ABA were not detectable in significant amounts in mice made tolerant by AC inoculation. The AC-induced tolerance was shown to result from hapten-specific T cell-mediated suppression. Suppressor T cells (Ts) arising from AC priming suppressed the efferent limb of the immune response and did not bear detectable cross-reactive idiotype (CRI) surface receptors. In these phenotypic and functional respects, AC-induced Ts differed from first-order Ts (Ts1) that result from i.v. priming. The results are discussed with respect to immune privilege and the anterior chamber of the eye. 相似文献

Rats given 10(10) sheep erythrocytes (SRBC) orally were found to contain specific suppressor cells to SRBC in their Peyer's patches (PP) and mesenteric lymph nodes (MLN) after 2 days of feeding. After 4 days of feeding, similar suppressor cells were found in the thymus and spleen, but they were missing in the PP or MLN. These suppressor cells effectively blocked IgM and IgG plaque-forming cell responses to SRBC in Mishell-Dutton cultures and delayed-type-hypersensitivity responses to SRBC when transferred to syngeneic recipients, but they did not affect responses to horse erythrocytes. The orally induced specific suppressor cells appeared to be T2 cells since their activity was eliminated by in vivo treatment of SRBC-fed rats with anti-rat lymphocyte serum but not by adult thymectomy. Because carrageenan partially relieved the suppression observed in culture, the actual suppressive mechanism may also involve a macrophage. 相似文献

Ag-primed B cells must express cell-surface IgM, but not IgD or Ia Ag, and must remain metabolically active, in order to activate suppressor T cells (Ts) specific for type III pneumococcal polysaccharide. Ag-primed B cells that were gamma-irradiated with 1000r, or less, retained the ability to activate Ts; however, Ag-primed B cells exposed to UV light were not able to do so. gamma-Irradiated and UV-treated Ag-primed B cells both expressed comparable levels of cell-surface IgM, and both localized to the spleen after in vivo transfer; neither could proliferate in vitro in response to mitogens. By contrast, gamma-irradiated primed B cells were still able to synthesize proteins, whereas UV-treated primed B cells could not. These findings suggest that in order for Ag-primed B cells to activate Ts, they must a) express cell-associated IgM (sIgM) antibody bearing the idiotypic determinants of antibody specific for type III pneumococcal polysaccharide, and b) be able to synthesize protein for either the continued expression of sIgM after cell transfer, or for the elaboration of another protein molecule that is also required for the activation of Ts; this molecule does not appear to be Ia Ag. 相似文献
