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

4-1BB costimulation enhances HSV-1-specific CD8+ T cell responses by the induction of CD11c+CD8+ T cells 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Since 4-1BB plays a predominant role in CD8+ T cell responses, we investigated the effects of 4-1BB triggering on the primary and memory CD8+ T responses to HSV-1 infection. 4-1BB was detected on 10-15% of CD4+ and CD8+ T cells following the infection. 4-1BB-positive T cells were in the proliferative mode and showed the enhanced expression of anti-apoptotic proteins. Agonistic anti-4-1BB treatment exerted preferential expansion of CD8+ T cells and gB/H-2Kb-positive CD8+ T cells, and enhanced cytotoxicity against HSV-1 that was mainly mediated by CD11c+CD8+ T cells. CD11c+CD8+ T cells were re-expanded following re-challenge with HSV-1 at post-infection day 50, indicating that CD11c+CD8+ phenotype was maintained in memory CD8+ T cell pool. Our studies demonstrated that 4-1BB stimulation enhanced both primary and memory anti-HSV-1 CD8+ T cell responses, which was mediated by a massive expansion of antigen-specific CD11c+CD8+ T cells. 相似文献

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

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

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

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

Concanamycin A (CMA) and concanamycin B (CMB) are specific inhibitors of vacuolar type H+-ATPase (V-ATPase). In our previous studies, intraperitoneal injection of CMB was shown to suppress the increase in CD8+ CTL population, but not to affect CD4+ and B220+ populations, in mice immunized with allogeneic tumors. To clarify the molecular basis of the selective decrease in the CD8+ CTL population by CMB, we have performed a series of in vitro experiments with use of CMA. Cell viability of the CD8+ population prepared from the immunized mice was preferentially decreased by CMA treatment. Moreover, in the CD8+ CTL clone, CMA induced a marked DNA fragmentation and nuclear condensation characteristic of apoptosis. Anti-CD3 or phorbol
ester accelerated the CMA-induced reduction in cell viability of the CD8+ CTL clone, but not CD4+ T cell clones. However, this rapid cell death was not accompanied by DNA fragmentation and nuclear condensation. Perforin
and granzyme B were unlikely to be involved in such cell death. Thus, our data suggest that V-ATPase activity is essential
for survival of CD8+ CTL especially when activated.

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

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

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

Glucocorticoid-induced tumor necrosis factor receptor (TNFR) (GITR) family-related gene is a member of the TNFR super family. GITR works as one of the immunoregulatory molecule on CD4(+) regulatory T cells and has an important role on cell survival or cell death in CD4(+) T cells. Little is known about the expression of GITR on human CD8(+) T cells on antigen-specific and non-specific activation. Here, we report that expression of GITR on human CD8(+) T cells on T-cell receptor (TCR) (anti-CD3)-mediated stimulation is dependent on the JNK pathway. The activation of CD8(+) T cells was measured by the expression of IL-2 receptor-α (CD25), GITR and by IFN-γ production upon re-stimulation with anti-CD3 antibody. We studied the signaling pathway of such inducible expression of GITR on CD8(+) T cells. We found that a known JNK-specific inhibitor, SP600125, significantly down-regulates GITR expression on anti-CD3 antibody-mediated activated CD8(+) T cells by limiting JNK phosphorylation. Subsequently, after stimulation of the CD8(+) cells, we tested for the production of IFN-γ by the activated cells following restimulation with the same stimulus. It appears that the expression of GITR on activated human CD8(+) T cells might also be regulated through the JNK pathway when the activation is through TCR stimulation. Therefore, GITR serves as an activation marker on activated CD8(+) cells and interference with JNK phosphorylation, partially or completely, by varying the doses of SP600125 might have implications in CD8(+) cytotoxic T cell response in translational research. 相似文献

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

Background
Cigarette smoke is a major risk factor for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), an inflammatory lung disorder. COPD is characterized by an increase in CD8+ T cells within the central and peripheral airways. We hypothesized that the CD8+ T cells in COPD patients have increased Toll-like receptor (TLR) expression compared to control subjects due to the exposure of cigarette smoke in the airways.Methods
Endobronchial biopsies and peripheral blood were obtained from COPD patients and control subjects. TLR4 and TLR9 expression was assessed by immunostaining of lung tissue and flow cytometry of the peripheral blood. CD8+ T cells isolated from peripheral blood were treated with or without cigarette smoke condensate (CSC) as well as TLR4 and TLR9 inhibitors. PCR and western blotting were used to determine TLR4 and TLR9 expression, while cytokine secretion from these cells was detected using electrochemiluminescence technology.Results
No difference was observed in the overall expression of TLR4 and TLR9 in the lung tissue and peripheral blood of COPD patients compared to control subjects. However, COPD patients had increased TLR4 and TLR9 expression on lung CD8+ T cells. Exposure of CD8+ T cells to CSC resulted in an increase of TLR4 and TLR9 protein expression. CSC exposure also caused the activation of CD8+ T cells, resulting in the production of IL-1β, IL-6, IL-10, IL-12p70, TNFα and IFNγ. Furthermore, inhibition of TLR4 or TLR9 significantly attenuated the production of TNFα and IL-10.Conclusions
Our results demonstrate increased expression of TLR4 and TLR9 on lung CD8+ T cells in COPD. CD8+ T cells exposed to CSC increased TLR4 and TLR9 levels and increased cytokine production. These results provide a new perspective on the role of CD8+ T cells in COPD. 相似文献14.

When the CD4+CD8+ thymic lymphoma cells were treated with puromycin, we found that most of the cells died at 0.3-1 μg/ml of puromycin within 24 h. However, cell death was greatly reduced when the dose of puromycin was increased. Similar dose-pattern of cell death was observed in thymocytes and the sensitivity to puromycin was greater in CD4+CD8+ thymocytes than CD4+CD8− thymocytes. The induction of apoptosis was blocked by the protein synthesis inhibitor cycloheximide, and to some extent by transfection of Bcl-xL or Bcl-2 genes. Expression of GRP78 was up-regulated after treatment with a small dose of puromycin, and the cell death by puromycin was blocked in the presence of caspase 12 inhibitor. These results indicated that the induction of cell death by low-dose puromycin was due to endoplasmic reticulum stress. Furthermore, we found that dexamethasone, a synthetic glucocorticoid, and puromycin worked synergistically to induce cell death in thymocytes. 相似文献

In vivo and in vitro effects of TIS21 gene on the mature T cell activation and antitumor activities were explored by employing MO5 melanoma orthograft and splenocytes isolated from the TIS21-knockout (KO) 2 mice. Proliferation and survival of mature T cells were significantly increased in the KO than the wild type (WT) 3 cells, indicating that TIS21 inhibits the rate of mature T cell proliferation and its survival. In MO5 melanoma orthograft model, the KO mice recruited much more CD8+ T cells into the tumors at around day 14 after tumor cell injection along with reduced tumor volumes compared with the WT. The increased frequency of granzyme B+ CD8+ T cells in splenocytes of the KO mice compared with the WT may account for antitumor-immunity of TIS21 gene in the melanoma orthograft. In contrast, reduced frequencies of CD107a+ CD8+ T cells in the splenocytes of KO mice may affect the loss of CD8+ T cell infiltration in the orthograft at around day 19. These results indicate that TIS21 exhibits antiproliferative and proapoptotic effects in mature T cells, and differentially affects the frequencies of granzyme B+ CD8+ T-cells and CD107a+ CD8+ T-cells, thus transiently regulating in vivo anti-tumor immunity. 相似文献

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

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