CCR2 and its major ligand, chemokine ligand 2 (CCL2)/monocyte chemotactic protein-1, have been found to influence T1/T2 immune response polarization. Our objective was to directly compare the roles of CCR2 and CCL2 in T1/T2 immune response polarization using a model of pulmonary Cryptococcus neoformans infection. Either deletion of CCR2 or treatment of wild-type mice with CCL2 neutralizing Ab produced significant and comparable reductions in macrophage and T cell recruitment into the lungs following infection. Both CCL2 neutralization and CCR2 deficiency resulted in significantly diminished IFN-gamma production, and increased IL-4 and IL-5 production by lung leukocytes (T1 to T2 switch), but only CCR2 deficiency promoted pulmonary eotaxin production and eosinophilia. In the lung-associated lymph nodes (LALN), CCL2-neutralized mice developed Ag-specific IFN-gamma-producing cells, while CCR2 knockout mice did not. LALN from CCR2 knockout mice also had fewer MHCII(+)CD11c(+) and MHCII(+)CD11b(+) cells, and produced significantly less IL-12p70 and TNF-alpha when stimulated with heat-killed yeast than LALN from wild-type or CCL2-neutralized mice, consistent with a defect in APC trafficking in CCR2 knockout mice. Neutralization of CCL2 in CCR2 knockout mice did not alter immune response development, demonstrating that the high levels of CCL2 in these mice did not play a role in T2 polarization. Therefore, CCR2 (but not CCL2) is required for afferent T1 development in the lymph nodes. In the absence of CCL2, T1 cells polarize in the LALN, but do not traffic from the lymph nodes to the lungs, resulting in a pulmonary T2 response. 相似文献

CCL25/CCR9 chemokine ligand/receptor pair has been reported to play an important role in small bowel (SB) immunity and inflammation. We have previously reported an aberrant SB expression of CCL25 in Crohn's disease (CD) and an increased frequency of CCR9(+) T cells in the peripheral blood of patients with SB inflammatory diseases such as CD and celiac disease. In this study, we have characterized the phenotype and effector function of CCR9(+) T cells in mucosal lymphoid tissues in CD. We show that CCR9(+) T cells isolated from mesenteric lymph nodes (MLN) draining CD SB express a more activated phenotype compared with MLN draining normal SB. Stimulation of CCR9(+) T cells isolated from CD SB lamina propria produced more IFN-gamma and IL-17 in response to anti-CD3 or IL-12/IL-18 stimulation compared with those isolated from normal SB. The addition of TL1A to the cytokine combination markedly augmented the secretion of IFN-gamma, but not IL-17, by CD lamina propria CCR9(+) T cells. CCL25 incubation of CD SB lamina propria lymphocytes and MLN lymphocytes increased their adhesion to VCAM-1/Fc in vitro. Finally, the TCRVbeta analysis of CCR9(+) T cells revealed a diverse TCRVbeta repertoire among MLN CCR9(+) T cells in patients with SB CD. Our data indicate that CCR9(+) T cells in SB CD are proinflammatory and support the rationale for the use of CCR9 antagonists for the treatment of human SB CD. 相似文献

The trafficking of effector cells to sites of infection is crucial for antiviral responses. However, the mechanisms of recruitment of the interferon-γ-producing and cytotoxic CD56(+) T cells are poorly understood. Human mast cells are sentinel cells found in the skin and airway and produce selected proinflammatory mediators in response to multiple pathogen-associated signals. The role of human mast cell-derived chemokines in T-cell recruitment to virus infection was examined. Supernatants from primary human cord blood-derived mast cells (CBMCs) infected with mammalian reovirus were examined for chemokine production and utilized in chemotaxis assays. Virus-infected CBMCs produced several chemokines, including CCL3, CCL4, and CCL5. Supernatants from reovirus-infected CBMCs selectively induced the chemotaxis of CD8(+) T cells (10±1%) and CD3(+)CD56(+) T cells (19±5%). CD56(+) T-cell migration was inhibited by pertussis toxin (65±9%) and met-RANTES (56±7%), a CCR1/CCR5 antagonist. CD56(+) T cells expressed CCR5, but little CCR1. The depletion of CCL3, CCL4, and CCL5 from reovirus-infected CBMC supernatants significantly (41±10%) inhibited CD56(+) T-cell chemotaxis. This study demonstrates a novel role for mast cells and CCR5 in CD56(+) T-cell trafficking and suggests that human mast cells enhance immunity to viruses through the selective recruitment of cytotoxic effector cells to virus infection sites. These findings could be exploited to enhance local T-cell responses in chronic viral infection and malignancies at mast cell-rich sites. 相似文献

Eotaxin-3/CCL26 is a functional ligand for CCR3 and abundantly produced by IL-4-/IL-13-stimulated vascular endothelial cells. CCL26 also functions as a natural antagonist for CCR1, CCR2, and CCR5. In this study, we report that CCL26 is yet a functional ligand for CX3CR1, the receptor for fractalkine/CX3CL1, which is expressed by CD16(+) NK cells, cytotoxic effector CD8(+) T cells, and CD14(low)CD16(high) monocytes. Albeit at relatively high concentrations, CCL26 induced calcium flux and chemotaxis in mouse L1.2 cells expressing human CX3CR1 but not mouse CX3CR1 and competed with CX3CL1 for binding to CX3CR1. In chemotaxis assays using human PBMCs, CCL26 attracted not only eosinophils but also CD16(+) NK cells, CD45RA(+)CD27(-)CD8(+) T cells, and CD14(low)CD16(high) monocytes. Intraperitoneal injection of CCL26 into mice rapidly recruited mouse eosinophils and intravenously transferred human CD16(+) NK cells into the peritoneal cavity. IL-4-stimulated HUVECs produced CCL26 and efficiently induced adhesion of cells expressing CX3CR1. Real-time PCR showed that skin lesions of psoriasis consistently contained CX3CL1 mRNA but not CCL26 mRNA, whereas those of atopic dermatitis contained CCL26 mRNA in all samples but CX3CL1 mRNA in only about half of the samples. Nevertheless, the skin lesions from both diseases consistently contained CX3CR1 mRNA at high levels. Thus, CCL26 may be partly responsible for the recruitment of cells expressing CX3CR1 in atopic dermatitis particularly when the expression of CX3CL1 is low. Collectively, CCL26 is another agonist for CX3CR1 and may play a dual role in allergic diseases by attracting eosinophils via CCR3 and killer lymphocytes and resident monocytes via CX3CR1. 相似文献

Accumulation of CD28(null)CD8+ T cells and the defects of these cells in response to antigenic stimulation are the hallmarks of age-associated decline of T cell function. However, the mechanism of these age-associated changes is not fully understood. In this study, we report an analysis of the growth of human CD28(null) and CD28+CD8+ memory T cells in response to homeostatic cytokine IL-15 in vitro. We showed that 1) there was no proliferative defect of CD28(null)CD8+ memory T cells in response to IL-15 compared with their CD28+ counterparts; 2) stable loss of CD28 expression occurred in those actively dividing CD28+CD8+ memory T cells responding to IL-15; 3) the loss of CD28 was in part mediated by TNF-alpha that was induced by IL-15; and 4) CCL4 (MIP-1beta), also induced by IL-15, had a significant inhibitory effect on the growth of CD28(null) cells, which in turn down-regulated their expression of CCL4 receptor CCR5. Together, these findings demonstrate that CD28(null)CD8+ memory T cells proliferate normally in response to IL-15 and that IL-15 and its induced cytokines regulate the generation and growth of CD28(null)CD8+ T cells, suggesting a possible role of IL-15 in the increase in CD28(null)CD8+ T cells that occurs with aging. 相似文献

Differentiation of CD8(+) T cells at the tumor site toward effector and memory stages may represent a key step for the efficacy of antitumor response developing naturally or induced through immunotherapy. To address this issue, CD8(+) T lymphocytes from tumor-invaded (n = 142) and tumor-free (n = 42) lymph nodes removed from the same nodal basin of melanoma patients were analyzed for the expression of CCR7, CD45RA, perforin, and granzyme B. By hierarchical cluster analysis, CD8(+) T cells from all tumor-free lymph nodes and from 56% of the tumor-invaded lymph node samples fell in the same cluster, characterized mainly by CCR7(+) CD45RA(+/-) cytotoxic factor(-) cells. The remaining three clusters contained only samples from tumor-invaded lymph nodes and showed a progressive shift of the CD8(+) T cell population toward CCR7(-) CD45RA(-/+) perforin(+) granzyme B(+) differentiation stages. Distinct CD8(+) T cell maturation stages, as defined by CCR7 vs CD45RA and by functional assays, were identified even in melanoma- or viral Ag-specific T cells from invaded lymph nodes by HLA tetramer analysis. Culture for 7 days of CCR7(+) perforin(-) CD8(+) T cells from tumor-invaded lymph nodes with IL-2 or IL-15, but not IL-7, promoted, mainly in CCR7(+)CD45RA(-) cells, proliferation coupled to differentiation to the CCR7(-) perforin(+) stage and acquisition of melanoma Ag-specific effector functions. Taken together, these results indicate that CD8(+) T cells differentiated toward CCR7(-) cytotoxic factor(+) stages are present in tumor-invaded, but not in tumor-free, lymph nodes of a relevant fraction of melanoma patients and suggest that cytokines such as IL-2 and IL-15 may be exploited to promote Ag-independent maturation of anti-tumor CD8(+) T cells. 相似文献

CCR7 and its ligands, CCL19 and CCL21, are responsible for directing the migration of T cells and dendritic cells into lymph nodes, where these cells play an important role in the initiation of the immune response. Recently, we have shown that systemic application of CCL19-IgG is able to inhibit the colocalization of T cells and dendritic cells within secondary lymphoid organs, resulting in pronounced immunosuppression with reduced allograft rejection after organ transplantation. In this study, we demonstrate that the application of sustained high concentrations of either soluble or immobilized CCL19 and CCL21 elicits an inhibitory program in T cells. We show that these ligands specifically interfere with cell proliferation and IL-2 secretion of CCR7(+) cells. This could be demonstrated for human and murine T cells and was valid for both CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells. In contrast, CCL19 had no inhibitory effect on T cells from CCR7 knockout mice, but CCR7(-/-) T cells showed a proliferative response upon TCR-stimulation similar to that of CCL19-treated wild-type cells. Furthermore, the inhibition of proliferation is associated with delayed degradation of the cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) inhibitor p27(Kip1) and the down-regulation of CDK1. This shows that CCR7 signaling is linked to cell cycle control and that sustained engagement of CCR7, either by high concentrations of soluble ligands or by high density of immobilized ligands, is capable of inducing cell cycle arrest in TCR-stimulated cells. Thus, CCR7, a chemokine receptor that has been demonstrated to play an essential role during activation of the immune response, is also competent to directly inhibit T cell proliferation. 相似文献

We report that CCR3 is not expressed on freshly isolated peripheral and germinal B cells, but is up-regulated after stimulation with IL-2 and IL-4 (approximately 98% CCR3(+)). Ligation of CCR3 by eotaxin/chemokine ligand (CCL) 11 induces apoptosis in IL-2- and IL-4-stimulated primary CD19(+) (approximately 40% apoptotic cells) B cell cultures as well as B cell lines, but has no effect on chemotaxis or cell adhesion. Freshly isolated B cells express low levels of CD95 and CD95 ligand (CD95L) (19 and 21%, respectively). Expression is up-regulated on culture in the presence of a combination of IL-2, IL-4, and eotaxin/CCL11 (88% CD95 and 84% CD95L). We therefore propose that ligation of such newly induced CCR3 on peripheral and germinal B cells by eotaxin/CCL11 leads to the enhanced levels of CD95 and CD95L expression. Ligation of CD95 by its CD95L expressed on neigboring B cells triggers relevant death signaling pathways, which include an increase in levels of Bcl-2 expression, its functional activity, and the release of cytochrome c from the mitochondria into the cytosol. These events initiate a cascade of enzymatic processes of the caspase family, culminating in programmed cell death. Interaction between CCR3 and eotaxin/CCL11 may, besides promoting allergic reactions, drive activated B cells to apoptosis, thereby reducing levels of Ig production, including IgE, and consequently limit the development of the humoral immune response. The apoptotic action of eotaxin/CCL11 suggests a therapeutic modality in the treatment of B cell lymphoma. 相似文献

This study had two aims: 1) to determine whether there are differences between atopic dermatitis (AD) patients and healthy subjects in staphylococcal superantigen (SsAg)-induced CD4(+) T cell activation, cytokine production, chemokine receptor expression, and apoptosis; and 2) to investigate the effect of IL-4 on SsAg-induced apoptosis. By using immunofluorescence and annexin V staining, we analyzed PBMC with or without staphylococcal enterotoxin B (SEB) stimulation in the presence or absence of rIL-4 or anti-IL-4-neutralizing Abs in 15 healthy subjects and 27 AD patients. We found that SEB preferentially induced production of Th1 cytokine in SEB-reactive (TCRVbeta3(+) or Vbeta12(+) or Vbeta17(+)) CD4(+) T cells from healthy subjects and Th2 cytokine in those from AD patients. SEB induced up-regulation of CXCR3(+) cells in SEB-reactive CD4(+) T cells from healthy subjects and CCR4(+) cells in those from AD patients. SEB-reactive CD4(+) T cells from AD patients were more resistant to SEB-induced apoptosis than those from healthy subjects. There was no significant difference between AD and healthy subjects in SEB-induced activation of CD4(+) T cells. CXCR3(+) CD4(+) T cells were more susceptible to SEB-induced apoptosis than CCR4(+) CD4(+) T cells in healthy subjects. Exogenously added IL-4 inhibited SEB-induced apoptosis of SEB-reactive CD4(+) and CXCR3(+) CD4(+) T cells but not of CCR4(+) CD4(+) T cells in healthy subjects. Inhibition of endogenous IL-4 increased SEB-induced apoptosis of SEB-reactive CD4(+) T cells from AD patients. These results might provide new clues to the mechanism that SsAgs contribute to the persistence and exacerbation of allergic skin inflammation in AD. 相似文献

CD8 T cells stimulated with a suboptimal dose of anti-CD3 Abs (100 pg/ml) in the presence of IL-15 retain a naive phenotype with expression of CD45RA, CD28, CD27, and CCR7 but acquire new functions and differentiate into immunosuppressive T cells. CD8(+)CCR7(+) regulatory T cells (Tregs) express FOXP3 and prevent CD4 T cells from responding to TCR stimulation and entering the cell cycle. Naive CD4 T cells are more susceptible to inhibition than memory cells. The suppressive activity of CD8(+)CCR7(+) Tregs is not mediated by IL-10, TGF-β, CTLA-4, CCL4, or adenosine and relies on interference with very early steps of the TCR signaling cascade. Specifically, CD8(+)CCR7(+) Tregs prevent TCR-induced phosphorylation of ZAP70 and dampen the rise of intracellular calcium in CD4 T cells. The inducibility of CD8(+)CCR7(+) Tregs is correlated with the age of the individual with PBLs of donors older than 60 y yielding low numbers of FOXP3(low) CD8 Tregs. Loss of CD8(+)CCR7(+) Tregs in the elderly host may be of relevance in the aging immune system as immunosenescence is associated with a state of chronic smoldering inflammation. 相似文献

We have demonstrated that Valpha24(+)Vbeta11(+) invariant (Valpha24(+)i) NKT cells from patients with allergic asthma express CCR9 at high frequency. CCR9 ligand CCL25 induces chemotaxis of asthmatic Valpha24(+)i NKT cells but not the normal cells. A large number of CCR9-positive Valpha24(+)i NKT cells are found in asthmatic bronchi mucosa, where high levels of Th2 cytokines are detected. Asthmatic Valpha24(+)i NKT cells, themselves Th1 biased, induce CD3(+) T cells into an expression of Th2 cytokines (IL-4 and IL-13) in cell-cell contact manner in vitro. CD226 are overexpressed on asthmatic Valpha24(+)i NKT cells. CCL25/CCR9 ligation causes directly phosphorylation of CD226, indicating that CCL25/CCR9 signals can cross-talk with CD226 signals to activate Valpha24(+)i NKT cells. Prestimulation with immobilized CD226 mAb does not change ability of asthmatic Valpha24(+)i NKT cells to induce Th2-cytokine production, whereas soluble CD226 mAb or short hairpin RNA of CD226 inhibits Valpha24(+)i NKT cells to induce Th2-cytokine production by CD3(+) T cells, indicating that CD226 engagement is necessary for Valpha24(+)i NKT cells to induce Th2 bias of CD3(+) T cells. Our results are providing with direct evidence that aberration of CCR9 expression on asthmatic Valpha24(+)i NKT cells. CCL25 is first time shown promoting the recruitment of CCR9-expressing Valpha24(+)i NKT cells into the lung to promote other T cells to produce Th2 cytokines to establish and develop allergic asthma. Our findings provide evidence that abnormal asthmatic Valpha24(+)i NKT cells induce systemically and locally a Th2 bias in T cells that is at least partially critical for the pathogenesis of allergic asthma. 相似文献

Growth factor deprivation-induced apoptosis plays an important role in several cellular systems. However, knowledge of the molecular mechanisms involved are restricted to a few murine models or tumor cell lines. Therefore, we aimed studying signaling pathways leading to apoptosis in activated human peripheral T cells after IL-2 withdrawal. Lymphoblasts from patients with CD 95 (Fas/APO-1)-deficiency revealed that functional CD95 was not required to induce apoptosis after IL-2 withdrawal. Moreover, apoptosis induction in response to various cytotoxic stimuli was found to be mediated in the absence of functional CD95 but was affirmatorily influenced by IL-2 signaling. Immunoblots showed no downregulation of Bcl-2 or Bcl-xL and no upregulation of Bax, whereas decreased mitochondrial membrane potential was readily measurable 24 h after cytokine deprivation. Tetrapeptide inhibitors showed limited efficacy in preventing apoptosis whereas the caspase inhibitor zVAD-FMK potently blocked induction of apoptosis. Cleavage of different fluorogenic substrates revealed multiple caspase enzyme activities in lymphoblasts, which were not negatively affected by the fas mutation. Starting at 8 h after IL-2 withdrawal, upregulation of active caspase-3 but not of caspase-8 could be detected. Taken together, our data argue for molecular mechanisms of cytokine deprivation-induced apoptosis in activated human lymphocytes independent of CD95. 相似文献

T cell-mediated liver diseases are associated with elevated serum levels of C-C chemokine ligand 2 (CCL2)/monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1). However, the extent to which the actions of CCL2/MCP-1 contribute to the pathogenesis of T cell-mediated hepatitis remains incompletely understood. Con A-induced hepatitis is a liver-specific inflammation mediated by activated T cells and is driven by an up-regulation of the hepatic expression of TNF-alpha, IFN-gamma, and IL-4. The present study examined the role of CCL2/MCP-1 in the pathogenesis of T cell-mediated hepatitis induced by Con A administration in the mouse. We demonstrate a novel hepatoprotective role for CCL2/MCP-1 during Con A-induced hepatitis, because CCL2/MCP-1 neutralization strikingly enhanced hepatic injury, both biochemically and histologically, after Con A administration. Furthermore, CCL2/MCP-1 neutralization was associated with a significant reduction in the hepatic levels of TNF-alpha and IFN-gamma, but with a significant increase in hepatic IL-4 levels. Moreover, IL-4 production and CCR2 expression by Con A-stimulated CD3(+)NK1.1(+) T cells was significantly reduced by rMCP-1 treatment in vitro. In summary, we propose that CCL2/MCP-1 fulfills a novel anti-inflammatory role in T cell-mediated hepatitis by inhibiting CD3(+)NK1.1(+) T cell-derived IL-4 production through direct stimulation of its specific receptor CCR2. These findings may have direct clinical relevance to T cell-mediated hepatitis. 相似文献

Chemokine receptor expression and function in CD4+ T lymphocytes with regulatory activity 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12
Sebastiani S Allavena P Albanesi C Nasorri F Bianchi G Traidl C Sozzani S Girolomoni G Cavani A 《Journal of immunology (Baltimore, Md. : 1950)》2001,166(2):996-1002
We have investigated the chemokine receptor expression and migratory behavior of a new subset of nickel-specific skin-homing regulatory CD4(+) T cells (Th(IL-10)) releasing high levels of IL-10, low IFN-gamma, and undetectable IL-4. These cells inhibit in a IL-10-dependent manner the capacity of dendritic cells to activate nickel-specific Tc1 and Th1 lymphocytes. RNase protection assay and FACS analysis revealed the expression of a vast repertoire of chemokine receptors on resting Th(IL-10), including the Th1-associated CXCR3 and CCR5, and the Th2-associated CCR3, CCR4, and CCR8, the latter at higher levels compared with Th2 cells. The most active chemokines for resting Th(IL-10), in terms of calcium mobilization and in vitro migration, were in order of potency: CCL2 (monocyte chemoattractant protein-1, CCR2 ligand), CCL4 (macrophage-inflammatory protein-1beta, CCR5 ligand), CCL3 (macrophage-inflammatory protein-1alpha, CCR1/5 ligand), CCL17 (thymus and activation-regulated chemokine, CCR4 ligand), CCL1 (I-309, CCR8 ligand), CXCL12 (stromal-derived factor-1, CXCR4), and CCL11 (eotaxin, CCR3 ligand). Consistent with receptor expression down-regulation, activated Th(IL-10) exhibited a reduced or absent response to most chemokines, but retained a significant migratory capacity to I-309, monocyte chemoattractant protein-1, and thymus and activation-regulated chemokine. I-309, which was ineffective on Th1 lymphocytes, attracted more efficiently Th(IL-10) than Th2 cells. I-309 and CCR8 mRNAs were not detected in unaffected skin and were up-regulated at the skin site of nickel-allergic reaction, with an earlier expression kinetics compared with IL-10 and IL-4. Results indicate that skin-homing regulatory Th(IL-10) lymphocytes coexpress functional Th1- and Th2-associated chemokine receptors, and that CCR8/I-309-driven recruitment of both resting and activated Th(IL-10) cells may be critically involved in the regulation of Th1-mediated skin allergic disorders. 相似文献

We have previously shown that the fusion of GM-CSF and IL-21 (GIFT-21) possesses a potent immune stimulatory effect on myeloid cells. In this study, we define the effect of GIFT-21 on naive murine monocytes (GIFT-21 dendritic cells [DCs]), which express increased levels of Gr-1, CD45R, MHC class I, CD80, CD86, and CXCR4 and suppress CD11c and MHC class II. Compared with conventional dendritic cells, GIFT-21 DCs produced substantially more CCL2, IL-6, TNF-α, and IFN-α and induced significantly greater production of IFN-γ by CD8(+) T cells in MHC class I-restricted Ag presentation assays. B16 melanoma and D2F2 Neu breast cancer growth was inhibited in mice treated with Ag-naive GIFT-21 DCs. This effect was lost in CD8(-/-) and CCR2(-/-) mice and when mice were treated with β(2)-microglobulin-deficient GIFT-21 DCs, indicating that GIFT-21 DCs migrated to and sampled from the tumors to present tumor Ags to CCL2 recruited CD8(+) T cells via MHC class I. We propose that autologous GIFT-21 DCs may serve as a cell therapy platform for the treatment of cancer. 相似文献

CCR8 was initially described as a Th2 cell-restricted receptor, but this has not been fully tested in vivo. The present study used ex vivo and in vivo approaches to examine the distribution and functional significance of CCR8 among CD4+ T cells. Populations of cytokine-secreting CD4+ T cells were generated in primed mice with Th1 or Th2 cell-mediated pulmonary granulomas, respectively elicited by i.v. challenge with either Mycobacteria bovis purified protein derivative- or Schistosoma mansoni egg Ag (SEA)-coated beads. Cytokine-producing CD4+ T cells were isolated from Ag-stimulated draining lymph node cultures by positive selection. Quantitative analysis of cytokine mRNA indicated enriched populations of IFN-gamma-, IL-4-, and IL-10-producing cells. Analysis of chemokine receptor mRNA indicated that IL-10+ cells selectively expressed CCR8 in the SEA bead-elicited type 2 response. The IL-10+CCR8+ populations were CD25+ and CD44+ but lacked enhanced Foxp3 expression. Adoptive transfer to naive recipients indicated that IL-10+ T cells alone could not transfer type 2 inflammation. Analysis of SEA bead-challenged CCR8-/- mice indicated significantly impaired IL-10 production as well as reductions in granuloma eosinophils. Adoptive transfer of CD4+CCR8+/+ T cells corrected cytokine and inflammation defects, but the granuloma eosinophil recruitment defect persisted when donor cells were depleted of IL-10+ cells. Accordingly, local IL-10 production correlated with CCR8 ligand (CCL1) expression and the appearance of CCR8+ cells in granulomatous lungs. Thus, IL-10-producing, CCR8+CD4+CD25+CD44+ T cells are generated during SEA challenge, which augment the Th2-mediated eosinophil-rich response to the parasite Ags. 相似文献

Coordinated involvement of mast cells and T cells in allergic mucosal inflammation: critical role of the CC chemokine ligand 1:CCR8 axis 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

CCL1 is the predominant chemokine secreted from IgE-activated human and mouse mast cells in vitro, colocalizes to mast cells in lung biopsies, and is elevated in asthmatic airways. CCR8, the receptor for CCL1, is expressed by approximately 70% of CD4(+) T lymphocytes recruited to the asthmatic airways, and the number of CCR8-expressing cells is increased 3-fold in the airways of asthmatic subjects compared with normal volunteers. In vivo, CCL1 expression in the lung is reduced in mast cell-deficient mice after aeroallergen provocation. Neutralization of CCL1 or CCR8 deficiency results in reduced mucosal lung inflammation, airway hyperresponsiveness, and mucus hypersecretion to a similar degree as detected in mast cell-deficient mice. Adenoviral delivery of CCL1 to the lungs of mast cell-deficient mice restores airway hyperresponsiveness, lung inflammation, and mucus hypersecretion to the degree observed in wild-type mice. The consequences of CCR8 deficiency, including a marked reduction in Th2 cytokine levels, are comparable with those observed by depletion of CD4(+) T lymphocytes. Thus, mast cell-derived CCL1- and CCR8-expressing CD4(+) effector T lymphocytes play an essential role in orchestrating lung mucosal inflammatory responses. 相似文献
