CD8(+) T cells have been shown to be capable of either suppressing or promoting immune responses. To reconcile these contrasting regulatory functions, we compared the ability of human effector and memory CD8(+) T cells to regulate survival and functions of dendritic cells (DC). We report that, in sharp contrast to the effector cells (CTLs) that kill DCs in a granzyme B- and perforin-dependent mechanism, memory CD8(+) T cells enhance the ability of DCs to produce IL-12 and to induce functional Th1 and CTL responses in naive CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cell populations. Moreover, memory CD8(+) T cells that release the DC-activating factor TNF-alpha before the release of cytotoxic granules induce DC expression of an endogenous granzyme B inhibitor PI-9 and protect DCs from CTL killing with similar efficacy as CD4(+) Th cells. The currently identified DC-protective function of memory CD8(+) T cells helps to explain the phenomenon of CD8(+) T cell memory, reduced dependence of recall responses on CD4(+) T cell help, and the importance of delayed administration of booster doses of vaccines for the optimal outcome of immunization. 相似文献

Alloantigen-induced CD25+CD4+ regulatory T cells can develop in vivo from CD25-CD4+ precursors in a thymus-independent process 总被引:17,自引:0,他引:17

The capacity of naturally occurring autoreactive CD25+CD4+ regulatory T cells (Treg) to control immune responses both in vivo and in vitro is now well established. It has been demonstrated that these cells undergo positive selection within the thymus and appear to enter the periphery as committed CD25+CD4+ Treg. We have shown previously that CD25+CD4+ Treg with the capacity to prevent skin allograft rejection can be generated by pretreatment with donor alloantigen under the cover of anti-CD4 therapy. Here we demonstrate that this process does not require an intact thymus. Furthermore, generation of these Treg is not dependent on the expansion of CD25+CD4+ thymic emigrants, because depletion of CD25+ cells before pretreatment does not prevent Treg development, and Treg can be generated from CD25-CD4+ precursors. Taken together, these results clearly demonstrate that CD25+CD4+ Treg can be generated in the periphery from CD25-CD4+ precursors in a pathway distinct to that by which naturally occurring autoreactive CD25+CD4+ Treg develop. These observations may have important implications for the design of protocols, both experimental and clinical, for the induction of tolerance to autoantigens or alloantigens in adults with limited thymic function. 相似文献

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), which is characterized by a dysregulated intestinal immune response, is postulated to be controlled by intestinal self-antigens and bacterial Ags. Fecal extracts called cecal bacterial Ag (CBA) have been implicated in the pathogenesis of IBD. In this study, we identified a major protein of CBA related to the pathogenesis of IBD and established a therapeutic approach using Ag-pulsed regulatory dendritic cells (Reg-DCs). Using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry, carbonic anhydrase I (CA I) was identified as a major protein of CBA. Next, we induced colitis by transfer of CD4(+)CD25(-) T cells obtained from BALB/c mice into SCID mice. Mice were treated with CBA- or CA I-pulsed Reg-DCs (Reg-DCs(CBA) or Reg-DCs(CA1)), which expressed CD200 receptor 3 and produced high levels of IL-10. Treatment with Reg-DCs(CBA) and Reg-DCs(CA1) ameliorated colitis. This effect was shown to be Ag-specific based on no clinical response of irrelevant Ag (keyhole limpet hemocyanin)-pulsed Reg-DCs. Foxp3 mRNA expression was higher but RORγt mRNA expression was lower in the mesenteric lymph nodes (MLNs) of the Reg-DCs(CA1)-treated mice compared with those in the MLNs of control mice. In the MLNs, Reg-DCs(CA1)-treated mice had higher mRNA expression of IL-10 and TGF-β1 and lower IL-17 mRNA expression and protein production compared with those of control mice. In addition, Reg-DCs(CBA)-treated mice had higher Foxp3(+)CD4(+)CD25(+) and IL-10-producing regulatory T cell frequencies in MLNs. In conclusion, Reg-DCs(CA1) protected progression of colitis induced by CD4(+)CD25(-) T cell transfer in an Ag-specific manner by inducing the differentiation of regulatory T cells. 相似文献

Regulatory T cells (Tregs), which are characterized by expression of CD4, CD25, and Foxp3, play a crucial role in the control of immune responses to both self and non-self Ags. To date, there are only limited data on their role in physiological and pathological hepatic immune responses. In this study, we examined the role of hepatic Tregs in immune-mediated liver injury by using the murine Con A-induced hepatitis model. Con A treatment was associated with an increased number of Foxp3(+) Tregs in liver but not in spleen. Moreover, the expression levels of Foxp3, CTLA-4, glucocorticoid-induced TNF receptor, as well as the frequency of CD103 of Tregs were increased after Con A injection, being significantly higher in liver than in spleen. Depleting CD25(+) cells aggravated liver injury, whereas adoptively transferring CD25(+) cells or Tregs reduced liver injury in Con A-treated recipients. Con A treatment induced elevated serum levels and hepatic mononuclear mRNA expressions of TGF-beta, which were reduced by Tregs depletion. In addition, anti-TGF-beta mAbs blocked the suppressive function of Tregs from Con A-treated mice in vitro. Finally, TGF-beta receptor II dominant-negative mice, whose T cells express a dominant negative form of TGFbetaRII and therefore cannot respond to TGF-beta, had a higher mortality rate and severer liver injury than normal mice injected with the same dose of Con A. These results indicate that CD4(+)CD25(+) Tregs play an important role in limiting the liver injury in Con A-induced hepatitis via a TGF-beta-dependent mechanism. 相似文献

Nucleocapsid or spike protein-specific CD4+ T lymphocytes protect against coronavirus-induced encephalomyelitis in the absence of CD8+ T cells. 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

To investigate the antiviral CD4+ T cell response in coronavirus MHV-JHM-induced encephalomyelitis, spleen and thymic lymphocytes from diseased rats were stimulated in culture with virus Ag, expanded and tested for their specificity to viral proteins and nucleocapsid (N) and spike (S) proteins that had been expressed in bacteria. A strong T cell response specific for N was measurable during acute disease, whereas S-specific T cells were only detectable in rats with a later onset of disease. CD4+ T cell lines with specificity for virus and either N or S protein were established and their influence on the course of a mouse hepatitis virus-JHM infection was investigated. All lines were of the CD4+ phenotype. Both N and S protein-specific CD4+ T cells conferred protection to infected Lewis rats and reduced the amount of infectious virus in the central nervous system. After transfer of CD4+ T cells and challenge with virus, an increase in the antiviral IgM response occurred, but neutralizing antibodies were not detectable during the period of virus clearance. Previous CD8+ cell depletion did not abrogate protection mediated by CD4+ T cell line transfer. 相似文献

Effector memory T cells (T(EM)) have an important role in immunity against infection. However, little is known about the factors regulating T(EM) maintenance and proliferation. In this study, we investigated the role of direct interactions between CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells (TC) for human T(EM) expansion. Proliferation of separated or mixed CD4(+) and CD8(+)T(EM) populations was analyzed after polyclonal stimulation in vitro. Compared to each isolated subset mixed T(EM) populations showed increased proliferation and expansion of both CD4(+) and CD8(+)T(EM) subpopulations. Combined activation of CD4(+) and CD8(+) memory T cells (Tmem) induced an increased expression of CD40L and CD40 on both populations. Subsequently, CD40/CD40L caused a bi-directional stimulation of CD40(+)CD4(+)T(EM) by CD40L(+)CD8(+)T(EM) and of CD40(+)CD8(+)T(EM) by CD40L(+)CD4(+)T(EM). Blocking of CD40L on activated CD8(+)T(EM) selectively inhibited proliferation of CD4(+)T(EM), while blocking of CD40L on CD4(+)T(EM) abrogated proliferation of CD8(+)T(EM). Taken together, we demonstrate for the first time that the expression of CD40L is exploited on the one hand by CD8(+)T(EM) to increase the proliferation of activated CD4(+)T(EM) and on the other hand by CD4(+)T(EM) to support the expansion of activated CD8(+)T(EM). Thus, efficient T(EM) expansion requires bi-directional interactions between CD4(+) and CD8(+)T(EM) cells. 相似文献

Identification of correlates of protection for infectious diseases including malaria is a major challenge and has become one of the main obstacles in developing effective vaccines. We investigated protection against liver-stage malaria conferred by vaccination with adenoviral (Ad) and modified vaccinia Ankara (MVA) vectors expressing pre-erythrocytic malaria Ags. By classifying CD8(+) T cells into effector, effector memory (T(EM)), and central memory subsets using CD62L and CD127 markers, we found striking differences in T cell memory generation. Although MVA induced accelerated central memory T cell generation, which could be efficiently boosted by subsequent Ad administration, it failed to protect against malaria. In contrast, Ad vectors, which permit persistent Ag delivery, elicit a prolonged effector T cell and T(EM) response that requires long intervals for an efficient boost. A preferential T(EM) phenotype was maintained in liver, blood, and spleen after Ad/MVA prime-boost regimens, and animals were protected against malaria sporozoite challenge. Blood CD8(+) T(EM) cells correlated with protection against malaria liver-stage infection, assessed by estimation of number of parasites emerging from the liver into the blood. The protective ability of Ag-specific T(EM) cells was confirmed by transfer experiments into naive recipient mice. Thus, we identify persistent CD8 T(EM) populations as essential for vaccine-induced pre-erythrocytic protection against malaria, a finding that has important implications for vaccine design. 相似文献

Transfer of CD4(+)CD45RB(high) T cells into RAG(-/-) mice causes colitis, which can be prevented by CD4(+)CD25(+) regulatory T cells (Treg). Colitis induction by CD4(+)CD45RB(high) T cells requires beta(7) integrin-dependent intestinal localization, but the importance of beta(7) integrins for Treg function is unknown. In this study, we show that beta(7)(-/-) Treg were effective in preventing colitis. Treg expanded in vivo to the same extent as CD4(+)CD45RB(high) T cells after transfer and they did not inhibit CD4(+)CD45RB(high) T cell expansion in lymphoid tissues, although they prevented the accumulation of Th1 effector cells in the intestine. beta(7)(-/-) Treg were significantly reduced in the large intestine, however, compared with wild-type Treg, and regulatory activity could not be recovered from the intestine of recipients of beta(7)(-/-) Treg. These data demonstrate that Treg can prevent colitis by inhibiting the accumulation of tissue-seeking effector cells and that Treg accumulation in the intestine is dispensable for colitis suppression. 相似文献

We have recently reported that NY-ESO-1-specific naive CD4+ T cell precursors exist in most individuals but are suppressed by CD4+CD25+ regulatory T cells (Tregs), while memory CD4+ T cell effectors against NY-ESO-1 are found only in cancer patients with spontaneous Ab responses to NY-ESO-1. In this study, we have analyzed mechanisms of CD4+ T cell induction following peptide vaccination in relation to susceptibility to Tregs. Specific HLA-DP4-restricted CD4+ T cell responses were elicited after vaccination with NY-ESO-1(157-170) peptide (emulsified in IFA) in patients with NY-ESO-1-expressing epithelial ovarian cancer. These vaccine-induced CD4+ T cells were detectable from effector/memory populations without requirement for in vitro CD4+CD25+ T cell depletion. However, they were only able to recognize NY-ESO-1(157-170) peptide but not naturally processed NY-ESO-1 protein and had much lower avidity compared with NY-ESO-1-specific pre-existing naive CD4+CD25- T cell precursors or spontaneously induced CD4+ T cell effectors of cancer patients with NY-ESO-1 Ab. We propose that vaccination with NY-ESO-1(157-170) peptide recruits low-avidity T cells with low sensitivity to Tregs and fails to modulate the suppressive effect of Tregs on high-avidity NY-ESO-1-specific T cell precursors. 相似文献

We describe successful immunotherapy of murine AIDS (MAIDS) in C57BL/6J mice based on the elimination of replicating CD4(+) regulator T cells. We demonstrate that a single injection of the antimitotic drug vinblastine (Vb) given 14 days postinfection (p.i.) with LP-BM5 can prevent MAIDS progression. Treatment with anti-CD4 mAb at 14 days p.i. is similarly able to prevent MAIDS. Treatment at other time points with Vb or anti-CD4 mAb is ineffective. The effect is based on ablation of a replicating dominantly suppressive CD4(+) T cell population, as indicated by adoptive transfer and in vivo depletion experiments using mAbs against CD4 as well as combinations of mAbs against the known regulatory cell surface markers CD25, GITR, and CTLA-4. Cell surface marker analysis shows a population of CD4(+)CD25(+) cells arising shortly before day 14 p.i. Cytokine analyses show a peak in IL-10 production from day 12 to day 16 p.i. MAIDS-infected mice also have CD4(+) T cells with significantly higher expression levels of CD38 and particularly CD69, which have been demonstrated to be regulator T cell markers in the Friend retroviral model. The immunotherapy appears to prevent disease progression, although no protection against reinfection with LP-BM5 is generated. These data define a new therapy for murine retroviral infection, which has potential for use in other diseases where T regulator cell-mediated immunosuppression plays a role in the disease process. 相似文献

Effector and memory CD8+ T cells can be generated in response to alloantigen independently of CD4+ T cell help 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

There is now considerable evidence suggesting that CD8(+) T cells are able to generate effector but not functional memory T cells following pathogenic infections in the absence of CD4(+) T cells. We show that following transplantation of allogeneic skin, in the absence of CD4(+) T cells, CD8(+) T cells become activated, proliferate, and expand exclusively in the draining lymph nodes and are able to infiltrate and reject skin allografts. CD44(+)CD8(+) T cells isolated 100 days after transplantation rapidly produce IFN-gamma following restimulation with alloantigen in vitro. In vivo CD44(+)CD8(+) T cells rejected donor-type skin allografts more rapidly than naive CD8(+) T cells demonstrating the ability of these putative memory T cells to mount an effective recall response in vivo. These data form the first direct demonstration that CD8(+) T cells are able to generate memory as well as effector cells in response to alloantigen during rejection in the complete absence of CD4(+) T cells. These data have important implications for the design of therapies to combat rejection and serve to reinforce the view that CD8(+) T cell responses to allografts require manipulation in addition to CD4(+) T cell responses to completely prevent the rejection of foreign organ transplants. 相似文献

CD4+CD25+ regulatory T cells in HIV infection 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9
The immune system faces the difficult task of discerning between foreign, potentially pathogen-derived antigens and self-antigens. Several mechanisms, including deletion of self-reactive T cells in the thymus, have been shown to contribute to the acceptance of self-antigens and the reciprocal reactivity to foreign antigens. Over the last decade it has become increasingly clear that CD4(+)CD25(+) T(Reg) cells are crucial for maintenance of T cell tolerance to self-antigens in the periphery, and to avoid development of autoimmune disorders. Recently, evidence has also emerged that demonstrates that CD4(+)CD25(+) T(Reg) cells can also suppress T cell responses to foreign pathogens, including viruses such as HIV. In this article we review the current knowledge and potential role of CD4(+)CD25(+) T(Reg) cells in HIV infection. 相似文献

Uncoupling of IL-2 signaling from cell cycle progression in naive CD4+ T cells by regulatory CD4+CD25+ T lymphocytes 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6

Prior reports have shown that CD4(+)CD25(+) regulatory T cells suppress naive T cell responses by inhibiting IL-2 production. In this report, using an Ag-specific TCR transgenic system, we show that naive T cells stimulated with cognate Ag in the presence of preactivated CD4(+)CD25(+) T cells also become refractory to the mitogenic effects of IL-2. T cells stimulated in the presence of regulatory T cells up-regulated high affinity IL-2R, but failed to produce IL-2, express cyclins or c-Myc, or exit G(0)-G(1). Exogenous IL-2 failed to break the mitotic block, demonstrating that the IL-2 production failure was not wholly responsible for the proliferation defect. This IL-2 unresponsiveness did not require the continuous presence of CD4(+)CD25(+) regulatory T cells. The majority of responder T cells reisolated after coculture with regulatory cells failed to proliferate in response to IL-2, but were not anergic and proliferated in response to Ag. The mitotic block was also dissociated from the antiapoptotic effects of IL-2, because IL-2 still promoted the survival of T cells that had been cocultured with CD4(+)CD25(+) T cells. IL-2-induced STAT5 phosphorylation in the cocultured responder cells was intact, implying that the effects of the regulatory cells were downstream of receptor activation. Our results therefore show that T cell activation in the presence of CD4(+)CD25(+) regulatory T cells can induce an alternative stimulation program characterized by up-regulation of high affinity IL-2R, but a failure to produce IL-2, and uncoupling of the mitogenic and antiapoptotic effects of IL-2. 相似文献

CD4+CD25+ and CD4+CD25- T cells act respectively as inducer and effector T suppressor cells in superantigen-induced tolerance 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

The repeated injection of low doses of bacterial superantigens (SAg) is known to induce specific T cell unresponsiveness. We show in this study that the spleen of BALB/c mice receiving chronically, staphylococcal enterotoxin B (SEB) contains SEB-specific CD4(+) TCRBV8(+) T cells exerting an immune regulatory function on SEB-specific primary T cell responses. Suppression affects IL-2 and IFN-gamma secretion as well as proliferation of T cells. However, the suppressor cells differ from the natural CD4(+) T regulatory cells, described recently in human and mouse, because they do not express cell surface CD25. They are CD152 (CTLA-4)-negative and their regulatory activity is not associated with expression of the NF Foxp3. By contrast, after repeated SEB injection, CD4(+)CD25(+) splenocytes were heterogenous and contained both effector as well as regulatory cells. In vivo, CD4(+)CD25(-) T regulatory cells prevented SEB-induced death independently of CD4(+)CD25(+) T cells. Nevertheless, SEB-induced tolerance could not be achieved in thymectomized CD25(+) cell-depleted mice because repeated injection of SEB did not avert lethal toxic shock in these animals. Collectively, these data demonstrate that, whereas CD4(+)CD25(+) T regulatory cells are required for the induction of SAg-induced tolerance, CD4(+)CD25(-) T cells exert their regulatory activity at the maintenance stage of SAg-specific unresponsiveness. 相似文献
