Memory T cells in inflamed skin express the cutaneous lymphocyte-associated antigen (CLA), a glycosylated epitope defined by the mAb HECA-452. We previously reported that on T cells, CLA occurs almost exclusively on the protein backbone of P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1 (PSGL-1). T cells exhibiting the CLA isoform of PSGL-1 can tether and roll on both E- and P-selectin, while T cells expressing PSGL-1 without the CLA epitope do not bind E-selectin, though they may bind P-selectin. We show here that circulating neutrophils and monocytes, and cultured blood dendritic cells, also express CLA almost entirely as an isoform of PSGL-1. These cells all tether and roll on both E- and P-selectin. A chimeric fusion protein incorporating the 19 N-terminal amino acids of mature PSGL-1 exhibited HECA-452 immunoreactivity and supported rolling of CHO cells expressing either E- or P-selectin. These findings indicate a site for the CLA modification within the distal tip of PSGL-1, previously shown to be critical for P-selectin binding and to mediate some, but not all, of the E-selectin binding of PSGL-1. We hypothesize that the types of circulating leukocytes discussed above all use CLA/PSGL-1 to tether and roll on E- and P-selectin along the vascular endothelium. 相似文献

Leukocytes express L-selectin ligands critical for leukocyte-leukocyte interactions at sites of inflammation. The predominant leukocyte L-selectin ligand is P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1 (PSGL-1), which displays appropriate sialyl Lewis x (sLex)-like carbohydrate determinants for L-selectin recognition. Among the sLex-like determinants expressed by human leukocytes is a unique carbohydrate epitope defined by the HECA-452 mAb. The HECA-452 Ag is a critical component of L-selectin ligands expressed by vascular endothelial cells. However, HECA-452 Ag expression on human leukocyte L-selectin ligands has not been assessed. In this study, the HECA-452 mAb blocked 88-99% of neutrophil rolling on, or attachment to, adherent cells expressing L-selectin in multiple experimental systems. A function-blocking anti-PSGL-1 mAb also inhibited L-selectin binding to neutrophils by 89-98%. In addition, the HECA-452 and anti-PSGL-1 mAbs blocked the majority of P-selectin binding to neutrophils. Western blot analysis revealed that PSGL-1 immunoprecipitated from neutrophils displayed HECA-452 mAb-reactive determinants and that PSGL-1 was the predominant scaffold for HECA-452 Ag display. Leukocyte L-selectin ligands also contained sulfated determinants since culturing ligand-bearing cells with NaClO3 abrogated L-selectin binding. Consistent with this, human neutrophils expressed mRNA encoding five different sulfotransferases associated with the generation of selectin ligands: CHST1, CHST2, CHST3, TPST1, and HEC-GlcNAc6ST. Therefore, the HECA-452-defined carbohydrate determinant displayed on PSGL-1 represented the predominant L-selectin and P-selectin ligand expressed by neutrophils. 相似文献

Human memory T cells associated with cutaneous inflammatory responses are characterized by their expression of cutaneous lymphocyte-associated Ag (CLA), a carbohydrate determinant differentially expressed on P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1 (PSGL-1). Although expression of the CLA epitope on PSGL-1 (CLA(+) PSGL-1) by memory T cells is associated with acquisition of E-selectin ligand activity, it is not known whether CLA(+) PSGL-1, itself, is a ligand for E-selectin on human T cells or whether other glycoproteins, with or without CLA modification, support E-selectin-dependent rolling in shear flow. To address this issue, we developed a method for real-time analysis of functional adhesive interactions between selectin-bearing cells in shear flow with leukocyte ligands resolved by SDS-PAGE and immobilized on standard Western blots. The results of these studies provide direct evidence that CLA(+) PSGL-1 is a functional ligand for both E- and P-selectin, confirm that the P-selectin ligand activity of PSGL-1 is independent of CLA modification, and identify a distinct, non-PSGL-1 E-selectin ligand on CLA-positive human memory T cells. 相似文献

Skin homing T cells carry memory for cutaneous Ags and play an important sentinel and effector role in host defense against pathogens that enter via the skin. CCR10 is a chemokine receptor that is preferentially expressed among blood leukocytes by a subset of memory CD4 and CD8 T cells that coexpress the skin-homing receptor cutaneous lymphocyte Ag (CLA), but not the gut-homing receptor alpha(4)beta(7). Homing and chemokine receptor coexpression studies detailed in this study suggest that the CLA(+)/CCR10(+) memory CD4 T cell population contains members that have access to both secondary lymphoid organ and skin compartments; and therefore, can act as both "central" and "effector" memory T cells. Consistent with this effector phenotype, CLA(+)/CCR10(+) memory CD4 T cells from normal donors secrete TNF and IFN-gamma but minimal IL-4 and IL-10 following in vitro stimulation. Interactions of CCR10 and its skin-associated ligand CC ligand 27 may play an important role in facilitating memory T cell entry into cutaneous sites during times of inflammation. 相似文献

Cutaneous lymphocyte antigen (CLA) is expressed on a subpopulation of human memory T cells and is involved in the primary step of their skin homing. T cells and some B cells in the peripheral blood express CLA, but the pathophysiologic roles of CLA(+) B cells have not yet been clarified. We examined the relationships among CLA expression in B cells and immunoglobulin heavy chain subtype, the localization of CLA(+) B cells in the peripheral lymphoid tissues, and their functional binding to E-selectin. CLA was expressed on class-switched, memory B cells in the peripheral blood and tonsils as revealed by flow cytometry. Immunohistochemical staining of the lymph nodes with various types of inflammation or reactive hyperplasia showed CLA on the monocytoid B cells, which correspond to memory cells. The functional study revealed that CLA on B cells bound to E-selectin transfectants. E-selectin was detected on some of the high endothelial venules in the monocytoid B-cell-rich lymph nodes. These findings suggest that CLA is also expressed on a subset of memory/effector B cells, in addition to a subset of memory T cells. Such B cells were located in the lymph nodes or tonsils and rarely in chronic dermatitis. Therefore, CLA seems to be related to memory/effector B-cell trafficking to the lymph nodes or tonsils. According to the multistep theory, mechanisms involved in the second or third step might be different between CLA(+) B and T cells. 相似文献

The interactions of the selectin family of adhesion molecules with their ligands are essential for the initial rolling stage of leukocyte trafficking. Under inflammatory conditions, the vascular selectins, E- and P-selectin, are expressed on activated vessels and interact with carbohydrate-based ligands on the leukocyte surface. While several ligands have been characterized on human T cells, monocytes and neutrophils, there is limited information concerning ligands on B cells. Endoglycan (EG) together with CD34 and podocalyxin comprise the CD34 family of sialomucins. We found that EG, previously implicated as an L-selectin ligand on endothelial cells, was present on human B cells, T cells and peripheral blood monocytes. Upon activation of B cells, EG increased with a concurrent decrease in PSGL-1. Expression of EG on T cells remained constant under the same conditions. We further found that native EG from several sources (a B cell line, a monocyte line and human tonsils) was reactive with HECA-452, a mAb that recognizes sialyl Lewis X and related structures. Moreover, immunopurified EG from these sources was able to bind to P-selectin and where tested E-selectin. This interaction was divalent cation-dependent and required sialylation of EG. Finally, an EG construct supported slow rolling of E- and P-selectin bearing cells in a sialic acid and fucose dependent manner, and the introduction of intact EG into a B cell line facilitated rolling interactions on a P-selectin substratum. These in vitro findings indicate that EG can function as a ligand for the vascular selectins. 相似文献

We previously showed that skin-homing CD4 T cells in peripheral blood can be subdivided into three populations on the basis of the expression pattern of the cutaneous lymphocyte Ag (CLA) and fucosyltransferase VII (FucT-VII): FucT-VII(+)CLA(-), FucT-VII(+)CLA(+), and FucT-VII(-)CLA(+). In view of the known late appearance of CLA during T cell differentiation, T cells programmed to attain skin-homing properties may start to generate E-selectin-binding epitopes at early stages of differentiation before induction of CLA expression. To this end, the in vitro differentiation from naive to CLA(+) memory T cells was followed after activation with anti-CD3 mAb. Here we demonstrate that naive skin-homing CD4 T cell precursors undergo a linear differentiation process from the FucT-VII(+)CLA(-) phenotype to the FucT-VII(+)CLA(+) phenotype and eventually to the FucT-VII(-)CLA(+) phenotype. The appearance of the FucT-VII(+)CLA(-) subset coincided with or could be immediately followed by the generation of E-selectin binding epitopes, and even after E-selectin-binding epitopes were no longer detectable, CLA remained expressed for prolonged periods of time, suggesting that induction of functional E-selectin ligands depends primarily on the expression of FucT-VII, but not CLA. Immunofluorescence and confocal microscopy studies of these T cells confirm that most E-selectin ligands were found independently of CLA expression. 相似文献

Normal (noninflamed) human skin contains a network of lymphocytes, but little is known about the homing and function of these cells. The majority of alphabeta T cells in normal skin express CCR8 and produce proinflammatory cytokines. In this study we examined other subsets of cutaneous lymphocytes, focusing on those with potential function in purging healthy tissue of transformed and stressed cells. Human dermal cell suspensions contained significant populations of Vdelta1(+) gammadelta T cells and CD56(+)CD16(-) NK cells, but lacked the subsets of Vdelta2(+) gammadelta T cells and CD56(+)CD16(+) NK cells, which predominate in peripheral blood. The skin-homing receptors CCR8 and CLA were expressed by a large fraction of both cell types, whereas chemokine receptors associated with lymphocyte migration to inflamed skin were absent. Neither cell type expressed CCR7, although gammadelta T cells up-regulated this lymph node-homing receptor upon TCR triggering. Stimulation of cutaneous Vdelta1(+) gammadelta T cell lines induced secretion of large amounts of TNF-alpha, IFN-gamma, and the CCR8 ligand CCL1. In contrast to cutaneous alphabeta T cells, both cell types had the capacity to produce intracellular perforin and displayed strong cytotoxic activity against melanoma cells. We therefore propose that gammadelta T cells and NK cells are regular constituents of normal human skin with potential function in the clearance of tumor and otherwise stressed tissue cells. 相似文献

Selectin-mediated adhesion of tumor cells to platelets, leukocytes, and endothelial cells may regulate their hematogenous dissemination in the microvasculature. We recently identified CD44 variant isoforms (CD44v) as functional P-, but not E- or L-, selectin ligands on colon carcinoma cells. Moreover, an approximately 180-kDa sialofucosylated glycoprotein(s) mediated selectin binding in CD44-knockdown cells. Using immunoaffinity chromatography and tandem mass spectrometry, we identify this glycoprotein as the carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA). Blot rolling assays and flow-based adhesion assays using microbeads coated with CEA immunopurified from LS174T colon carcinoma cells and selectins as substrate reveal that CEA possesses E- and L-, but not P-, selectin ligand activity. CEA on CD44-knockdown LS174T cells exhibits higher HECA-452 immunoreactivity than CEA on wild-type cells, suggesting that CEA functions as an alternative acceptor for selectin-binding glycans. The enhanced expression of HECA-452 reactive epitopes on CEA from CD44-knockdown cells correlates with the increased CEA avidity for E- but not L-selectin. Through the generation of stable knockdown cell lines, we demonstrate that CEA serves as an auxiliary L-selectin ligand, which stabilizes L-selectin-dependent cell rolling against fluid shear. Moreover, CEA and CD44v cooperate to mediate colon carcinoma cell adhesion to E- and L-selectin at elevated shear stresses. The novel finding that CEA is an E- and L-selectin ligand may explain the enhanced metastatic potential associated with tumor cell CEA overexpression and the supportive role of selectins in metastasis. 相似文献

Tissue specificity of E- and P-selectin ligands in Th1-mediated chronic inflammation. 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6

The demonstrated role of E- and P-selectin ligands in the recruitment of Th1 cells raises the question of tissue specificity determination by pathogenic T cells. We took advantage of the fact that chronic Th1-mediated inflammation in the scid/scid CD4+CD45RBhigh T cell transfer model can occur at multiple tissue sites, resembling inflammatory bowel disease in the colon and psoriasis in the skin. We show that the majority of infiltrating effector T cells from psoriatic skin expresses high levels of functional P-selectin ligand (87 +/- 3%), detected by P-selectin-Ig (PIg), while a significantly smaller subset of T cells from colitic lesions expresses this ligand (24 +/- 2%). Similarly, E-selectin ligand is preferentially expressed on CD4+ T cells infiltrating the skin (24 +/- 2%), but only on very few CD4+ T cells infiltrating the colon (CIT; 1.3 +/- 0.8%). In contrast, CD4+ T cells infiltrating the skin express alpha4beta7 at a significantly lower level than CIT (mean fluorescence intensity, 28 vs 61, respectively), although, interestingly, alphaEbeta7 was expressed at high levels on both populations. Analysis of the disease-inducing potential of PIg+ and PIg- CD4+ CIT cells revealed that both populations not only express similar levels of the gut-homing molecule alpha4beta7 (mean fluorescence intensity, 50 vs 56, respectively), but do not differ in their capacity to express IFN-gamma. Furthermore, CIT depleted of cells expressing functional P-selectin ligand were able to induce colitis upon transfer, suggesting that induction of colitis in this model may be independent of E- and P-selectin. These results indicate that adhesion molecule expression and the homing pattern of inflammatory T cells are regulated by the local environment independently of their inflammatory capacity. 相似文献

Skin-homing receptors on effector leukocytes are differentially sensitive to glyco-metabolic antagonism in allergic contact dermatitis 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

T cell recruitment into inflamed skin is dependent on skin-homing receptor binding to endothelial (E)- and platelet (P)-selectin. These T cell receptors, or E- and P-selectin ligands, can be targeted by the metabolic fluorosugar inhibitor, 4-F-GlcNAc, to blunt cutaneous inflammation. Compelling new data indicate that, in addition to T cells, NK cells are also recruited to inflamed skin in allergic contact hypersensitivity (CHS) contingent on E- and P-selectin-binding. Using a model of allergic CHS, we evaluated the identity and impact of NK cell E-selectin ligand(s) on inflammatory responses and examined the oral efficacy of 4-F-GlcNAc. We demonstrated that the predominant E-selectin ligands on NK cells are P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1 and protease-resistant glycolipids. We showed that, unlike the induced E-selectin ligand expression on activated T cells upon exposure to Ag, ligand expression on NK cells was constitutive. CHS responses were significantly lowered by orally administered 4-F-GlcNAc treatment. Although E-selectin ligand on activated T cells was suppressed, ligand expression on NK cells was insensitive to 4-F-GlcNAc treatment. These findings indicate that downregulating effector T cell E- and P-selectin ligand expression directly correlates with anti-inflammatory efficacy and provides new insight on metabolic discrepancies of E-selectin ligand biosynthesis in effector leukocytes in vivo. 相似文献

The glycosyltransferase core 2 beta1-6 N-acetylglucosaminyl transferase (C2GnT1 or C2GlcNAcT1) is responsible for formation of branched structures on O-glycans present on cell surface glycoproteins. The O-glycan branch created by C2GnT1 is physiologically important insofar as only this structure can be extended and modified to yield P-selectin ligands that promote initial interactions between extravasating lymphocytes and endothelia. In mature T cells, C2GnT1 activity is thought to be induced as an intrinsic consequence of T cell activation. Through analysis of C2GnT1-dependent epitopes on CD43 and CD45RB we have found that in activated CD8(+) T cells expression of C2GnT1 was dependent upon exposure to specific cytokines rather than being induced as a direct consequence of activation. Activated CD8(+) cells became receptive to strong induction of C2GnT1 expression and P-selectin ligand expression in response to IL-2, moderate induction by IL-15, and minimal induction in response to IL-4. Our observations clarify the relationship between T cell activation and C2GnT1 expression, demonstrate the differential impact of distinct cytokines on expression of C2GnT1 activity and P-selectin ligand, and reinforce the concept that the cytokine milieu subsequent to activation can influence adhesion systems that dictate lymphocyte homing properties. 相似文献

The majority of T lymphocytes that infiltrate psoriatic lesions express cutaneous lymphocyte antigen (CLA), a skin homing receptor involved in the influx of memory T cells to cutaneous sites. We investigated CLA expression on normal human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and evaluated its association with IL-12 receptors, chemokine receptor, CXCR3, and IL-2Ralpha. PBMCs were stimulated in vitro with or without polyclonal activators (mitogen, or superantigens, or anti-CD3+anti-CD28) in the presence or absence of exogenous rhIL-12. The percentage of CLA+ T lymphocytes increased significantly after superantigen stimulation compared to anti-CD3+anti-CD28 or mitogen activation. The majority of activation induced CLA+ T lymphocytes co-expressed IL-12Rbeta1, IL-12Rbeta2, CXCR3, and CD25 in the presence of rhIL-12. Our results indicate that CLA expression on activated T lymphocytes is IL-12 and activation dependent and correlates with the expression of IL-12 receptors, IL-2Ralpha, and CXCR3. Monitoring the levels of Th1 differentiation markers such as CXCR3 and IL-12Rbeta2 along with activation marker, CD25 on skin homing CLA+ T lymphocytes may provide insight into the mechanism of action of immunotherapies directed against Th1 type skin inflammatory diseases. 相似文献

E-, P- and L-selectins critically function in lymphocyte recirculation and recruiting leukocytes to inflammatory sites. MECA-79
antibody inhibits L-selectin-mediated lymphocyte adhesion in several species and does not require sialic acid in its epitope.
Many other antibodies, however, recognize human selectin ligands expressing N-acetylneuraminic acid but not mouse selectin ligands expressing N-glycolylneuraminic acid, suggesting that difference in sialic acid in sialyl Lewis X leads to differential reactivity. We
found that HECA-452 and FH6 monoclonal antibodies bind Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells expressing N-acetylneuraminyl Lewis X oligosaccharide but not its N-glycolyl form. Moreover, synthetic N-acetylneuraminyl Lewis X oligosaccharide but not its N-glycolyl oligosaccharide inhibited HECA-452 and FH6 binding. By contrast, E-, P- and L-selectin bound to CHO cells regardless
of whether they express N-acetyl or N-glycolyl form of sialyl Lewis X, showing that selectins have a broader recognition capacity than HECA-452 and FH-6 anti-sialyl
Lewis x antibodies.

Access of T effector cells to sites of inflammation is a prerequisite for an efficient action in immune defense and is mediated by different, partly tissue-specific sets of adhesion molecules. To what extent lymphocytes memorize the site of initial priming and develop organ-specific homing properties is still a matter of debate. Notably, data on the stability of homing receptor expression on T cells in vivo are largely lacking. We approached this question by the adoptive transfer of CD4(+) T cells sorted for the expression of P-selectin ligands, which contribute to migration into inflamed sites in skin and other tissues. We observed long-term expression of P-selectin ligands on roughly one-third of effector cells. On those cells that had lost P-selectin ligands, re-expression upon Ag challenge was observed but only within pLNs, similar to the organ-selective induction upon the primary activation of naive T cells. The frequency of cells stably expressing P-selectin ligands was higher when cells were repeatedly stimulated under permissive conditions in the presence of IL-12, indicating a gradual fixation of this phenotype. In line with that finding, isolated P-selectin ligand positive memory T cells showed the highest frequency of long-term expressing cells. A tissue-specific environment was not required for the long-term maintenance of P-selectin ligand expression on the subfraction of effector cells. These data indicate that the expression of selectin ligands can become clonally imprinted under certain conditions, but also that a major fraction of the cells remains flexible and subject to environmental modulation upon restimulation. 相似文献

Hematogenous metastasis involves the adhesion of circulating tumor cells to vascular endothelium of the secondary site. We hypothesized that breast cancer cell adhesion is mediated by interaction of endothelial E-selectin with its glycoprotein counter-receptor(s) expressed on breast cancer cells. At a hematogenous wall shear rate, ZR-75-1 breast cancer cells specifically adhered to E-selectin expressing human umbilical vein endothelial cells when tested in parallel plate flow chamber adhesion assays. Consistent with their E-selectin ligand activity, ZR-75-1 cells expressed flow cytometrically detectable epitopes of HECA-452 mAb, which recognizes high efficiency E-selectin ligands typified by sialofucosylated moieties. Multiple E-selectin reactive proteins expressed by ZR-75-1 cells were revealed by immunoprecipitation with E-selectin chimera (E-Ig chimera) followed by Western blotting. Mass spectrometry analysis of the 72 kDa protein, which exhibited the most prominent E-selectin ligand activity, corresponded to Mac-2 binding protein (Mac-2BP), a heretofore unidentified E-selectin ligand. Immunoprecipitated Mac-2BP expressed sialofucosylated epitopes and possessed E-selectin ligand activity when tested by Western blot analysis using HECA-452 mAb and E-Ig chimera, respectively, demonstrating that Mac-2BP is a novel high efficiency E-selectin ligand. Furthermore, silencing the expression of Mac-2BP from ZR-75-1 cells by shRNA markedly reduced their adhesion to E-selectin expressing cells under physiological flow conditions, confirming the functional E-selectin ligand activity of Mac-2BP on intact cells. In addition to ZR-75-1 cells, several other E-selectin ligand positive breast cancer cell lines expressed Mac-2BP as detected by Western blot and flow cytometry, suggesting that Mac-2BP may be an E-selectin ligand in a variety of breast cancer types. Further, invasive breast carcinoma tissue showed co-localized expression of Mac-2BP and HECA-452 antigens by fluorescence microscopy, underscoring the possible role of Mac-2BP as an E-selectin ligand. In summary, breast cancer cells express Mac-2BP as a novel E-selectin ligand, potentially revealing a new prognostic and therapeutic target for breast cancer. 相似文献

The vast majority of CLA+ T cells are resident in normal skin 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11

There are T cells within normal, noninflamed skin that most likely conduct immunosurveillance and are implicated in the development of psoriasis. We isolated T cells from normal human skin using both established and novel methods. Skin resident T cells expressed high levels of CLA, CCR4, and CCR6, and a subset expressed CCR8 and CXCR6. Skin T cells had a remarkably diverse TCR repertoire and were mostly Th1 memory effector cells with smaller subsets of central memory, Th2, and functional T regulatory cells. We isolated a surprising number of nonexpanded T cells from normal skin. To validate this finding, we counted T cells in sections of normal skin and determined that there are approximately 1 x 10(6) T cells/cm(2) normal skin and an estimated 2 x 10(10) T cells in the entire skin surface, nearly twice the number of T cells in the circulation. Moreover, we estimate that 98% of CLA(+) effector memory T cells are resident in normal skin under resting conditions. These findings demonstrate that there is a large pool of memory T cells in normal skin that can initiate and perpetuate immune reactions in the absence of T cell recruitment from the blood. 相似文献

In allergic inflammations of the skin, activation of CD4+ T cells was demonstrated to play an important role; however, a minor role for CD8+ T cells is implied. In the present study, we compared cutaneous lymphocyte-associated Ag (CLA)-expressing CD4+ and CD8+ subsets, which were isolated from peripheral blood and lesional skin biopsies in atopic dermatitis (AD) patients. We demonstrated that CD8+CLA+ T cells proliferate in response to superantigen and are as potent as CD4+CLA+ T cells in IgE induction and support of eosinophil survival. In atopic skin inflammation, the existence of high numbers of CD4+ and CD8+ T cells was demonstrated by immunohistochemistry and by culturing T cells from skin biopsies. In peripheral blood, both CD4+ and CD8+ subsets of CLA+CD45RO+ T cells were in an activated state in AD. The in vivo-activated CLA+ T cells of both subsets spontaneously released an IL-5- and IL-13-dominated Th2 type cytokine pattern. This was confirmed by intracytoplasmic cytokine staining immediately after isolation of the cells from peripheral blood. In consequence, both CD4+ and CD8+, CLA+ memory/effector T cells induced IgE production by B cells mainly by IL-13, and enhanced eosinophil survival in vitro by delaying eosinophil apoptosis, mainly by IL-5. These results indicate that in addition to the CD4+ subset, the CD8+CLA+ memory/effector T cells are capable of responding to superantigenic stimulation and play an important role in the pathogenesis of AD. 相似文献

CD4+CD25+ T regulatory cells (Treg) are thought to be important in the peripheral tolerance. Recent evidence suggests that human peripheral blood CD4+CD25+ T cells are heterogeneous and contain both CD4+CD25(high) T cells with potent regulatory activity and many more CD4+CD25(low/med) nonregulatory T cells. In this study, we found that virtually all peripheral blood CD4+CD25(high)Foxp3+ Treg expressed high levels of the chemokine receptor CCR4. In addition, 80% of Treg expressed cutaneous lymphocyte Ag (CLA) and 73% expressed CCR6. These molecules were functional, as CLA+ Treg showed CD62E ligand activity and demonstrable chemotactic responses to the CCR4 ligands CCL22 and CCL17 and to the CCR6 ligand CCL20. The phenotype and chemotactic response of these Treg were significantly different from those of CD4+CD25(med) nonregulatory T cells. We further demonstrated that blood CLA+ Treg inhibited CD4+CD25- T cell proliferation induced by anti-CD3. Based on homing receptor profile, CLA+ Treg should enter normal skin. We next isolated CD4+CD25(high) T cells directly from normal human skin; these cells suppressed proliferation of skin CD4+CD25- T cells. Therefore, the majority of true circulating Treg express functional skin-homing receptors, and human Treg may regulate local immune responses in normal human skin. 相似文献
