CD4+ T cells with immune regulatory function can be either FOXP3+ or FOXP3?. We have previously shown that priming of naturally occurring TCR‐peptide‐reactive CD4+FOXP3? Treg specifically controls Vβ8.2+CD4+ T cells mediating EAE. However, the mechanism by which these Treg are primed to recognize their cognate antigenic determinant, which is derived from the TCRVβ8.2‐chain, is not known. In this study we show that APC derived from splenocytes of naïve mice are able to stimulate cloned CD4+ Treg in the absence of exogenous antigen, and their stimulation capacity is augmented during EAE. Among the APC populations, DC were the most efficient in stimulating the Treg. Stimulation of CD4+ Treg was dependent upon processing and presentation of TCR peptides from ingested Vβ8.2TCR+CD4+ T cells. Additionally, DC pulsed with TCR peptide or apoptotic Vβ8.2+ T cells were able to prime Treg in vivo and mediate protection from disease in a CD8‐dependent fashion. These data highlight a novel mechanism for the priming of CD4+ Treg by CD8α+ DC and suggest a pathway that can be exploited to prime antigen‐specific regulation of T‐cell‐mediated inflammatory disease. 相似文献

Using a primary limiting dilution approach to generate T cell lines, we compared myelin basic protein (MBP)-specific T cell clones from naive unprimed Lewis rat thymuses with the corresponding T cell repertoire of primed rats. We found that in the naive thymus repertoire MBP-specific, encephalitogenic T cell clones preferentially use T cell receptor Vβ8.2 genes, along with CDR3 sequences typical for the primed Lewis anti-MBP response. In contrast to T cells from primed immune organs, which all display the CD4+ CD8? phenotype, the majority of naive thymus-derived T cell clones expressed reduced levels of the CD4 co-receptor. Some clones were completely CD4?CD8?, while others included CD4? CD8? subpopulations along with CD4+CD8? T cells. In the one mixed population examined in detail, the CD4?CD8? and CD4+CD8? T cell subpopulations used a T cell receptor with identical β chain sequence. The data suggest that in the Lewis rat the biased T cell receptor gene usage by encephalitogenic T cells is a property of the natural thymic T cell repertoire, possibly as a consequence of positive selection. The unusually low expression of CD4 in the major histocompatibility complex class II-restricted autoreactive T cells could be related to their escape from negative selection within the thymus. 相似文献

Targeted disruption of the CD8 gene results in a profound block in cytotoxic T cell (CTL) development. Since CTL are major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I restricted, we addressed the question of whether CD8–/– mice can reject MHC class I-disparate allografts. Studies have previously shown that skin allografts are rejected exclusively by T cells. We therefore used the skin allograft model to answer our question and grafted CD8–/– mice with skins from allogeneic mice deficient in MHC class II or in MHC class I (MHC-I or MHC-II-disparate, respectively). CD8–/– mice rejected MHC-I-disparate skin rapidly even if they were depleted of CD4+ cells in vivo (and were thus deficient in CD4+ and CD8+ T cells). By contrast, CD8+/+ controls depleted of CD4+ and CD8+ T cells in vivo accepted the MHC-I-disparate skin. Following MHC-I, but not MHC-II stimulation, allograft-specific cytotoxic activity was detected in CD8–/– mice even after CD4 depletion. A population expanded in both the lymph nodes and the thymus of grafted CD8–/– animals which displayed a CD4?8?3intermediateTCRα/βintermediate phenotype. Indeed its T cell receptor (TCR) density was lower than that of CD4+ cells in CD8–/– mice or of CD8+ cells in CD8+/+ mice. Our data suggest that this CD4?8?T cell population is responsible for the CTL function we have observed. Therefore, MHC class I-restricted CTL can be generated in CD8–/– mice following priming with MHC class I antigens in vivo. The data also suggest that CD8 is needed to up-regulate TCR density during thymic maturation. Thus, although CD8 plays a major role in the generation of CTL, it is not absolutely required. 相似文献

We investigated the surface phenotype of CD3+CD4+ T cell receptor (TCR) αβ+ T cells repopulating the intestinal lymphoid tissues of C.B-17 scidlscid (severe-combined immunodeficient; scid) (H-2d, Ld+) mice. CD4+ CD8? T cells were cell sorter-purified from various secondary and tertiary lymphoid organs of congenic C.B-17 +/+ (H-2d, Ld+) or semi-syngeneic dm2 (H-2d, Ld?) immunocompetent donor mice. After transfer of 105 cells into young scid mice, a mucosa-homing, memory CD44hi CD45RBlo CD4+ T cell population was selectively engrafted. Large numbers of single-positive (SP) CD3+ CD2+ CD28+ CD4+ CD8? T cells that expressed the α4 integrin chain CD49d were found in the spleen, the mesenteric lymph nodes, the peritoneal cavity and the gut lamina propria of transplanted scid mice. Unexpectedly, large populations of donor-type doublepositive (DP) CD4+ CD8α+ CD8β? T cells with high expression of the CD3/TCR complex appeared in the epithelial layer of the small intestine of transplanted scid mice. In contrast to SP CD4+ T cells, the intraepithelial DP T cells showed low expression of the CD2 and the CD28 co-stimulator molecules, and of the α4 integrin chain CD49d, but expressed high levels of the αIEL integrin chain CD103. The TCR-Vβ repertoire of DP but not SP intraepithelial CD4+ T cells was biased towards usage of the Vβ6 and Vβ8 viable domains. Highly purified populations of SP and DP CD4+ T cell populations from the small intestine epithelial layer of transplanted scid mice had different abilities to repopulate secondary scid recipient mice: SP CD4+ T cells repopulated various lymphoid tissues of the immunodeficient host, while intraepithelial DP CD4+ T cells did not. Hence, a subset of CD3+ CD4+ TCRαβ+ T cells apparently undergoes striking phenotypic changes when it enters the microenvironment of the small intestine epithelial layer. 相似文献

We followed αβ T cell receptor (TCR) usage in subsets of gut intraepithelial lymphocytes (IEL) in major histocompatibility complex class I-restricted αβ TCR-transgenic (tg) mice. The proportion of tg αβ TCR+ CD8αβ IEL is reduced compared with CD8+ splenocytes of the same animal, particularly under conventional conditions of maintenance. Further fractionation of CD8αβ IEL according to the expression level of surface CD5 revealed that in conventionally housed animals tg TCR+ CD5? CD8αβ IEL are as frequent as in specific pathogen-free (SPF) mice, whereas tg TCR+ CD5int or, even more pronounced, tg TCR+ CD5hi CD8αβ IEL are greatly diminished when compared with mice kept under SPF conditions. Upon antigen-specific stimulation of CD5? CD8αβ IEL in vitro, CD5 surface expression is up-regulated on a large fraction of cells within 48 h. Up-regulation of CD5 surface expression is further enhanced by the presence of the anti-αIEL monoclonal antibody 2E7. This clearly demonstrates that CD5?, and CD5+ CD8αβ IEL cannot be considered as separate T cell lineages. 相似文献

TCR‐αβ+ double negative (DN) T cells (CD3+TCR‐αβ+CD4?CD8?NK1.1?CD49b?) represent a minor heterogeneous population in healthy humans and mice. These cells have been ascribed pro‐inflammatory and regulatory capacities and are known to expand during the course of several autoimmune diseases. Importantly, previous studies have shown that self‐reactive CD8+ T cells become DN after activation by self‐antigens, suggesting that self‐reactive T cells may exist within the DN T‐cell population. Here, we demonstrate that programmed cell death 1 (PD‐1) expression in unmanipulated mice identifies a subset of DN T cells with expression of activation‐associated markers and a phenotype that strongly suggests they are derived from self‐reactive CD8+ cells. We also found that, within DN T cells, the PD‐1+ subset generates the majority of pro‐inflammatory cytokines. Finally, using a TCR‐activation reporter mouse (Nur77‐GFP), we confirmed that in the steady‐state PD‐1+ DN T cells engage endogenous antigens in healthy mice. In conclusion, we provide evidence that indicates that the PD‐1+ fraction of DN T cells represents self‐reactive cells. 相似文献

Present literature supports the view of an extrathymic origin for the subset of intestinal intraepithelial lymphocytes (IEL) that express the CD4?CD8+ αα phenotype. This subset would include virtually all T cell receptor (TCR) γδ IEL and a portion of TCR αβ IEL. However, these reports do not exclude the possibility that some CD4?CD8+ αα IEL are actually thymically derived. To clarify this issue, we examined the IEL day 3 neonatally thymectomized (NTX) mice. NTX resulted in as much as 80 % reduction in total TCR γδ IEL and in a nearly complete elimination of TCR αβ CD4?CD8+ αα IEL early in ontogeny (3-to 5-week-old mice). The thymus dependency of TCR γδ IEL and TCR αβ CD4?CD8+ IEL was less prominent in older mice (7- to 10-week-old mice), as the total number of these IEL increased in NTX mice, but still remained severalfold less than that in euthymic mice. Furthermore, we demonstrate, by grafting the fetal thymus of CBF1 (H-2b/d) mice under the kidney capsule of congenitally nude athymic mice of BALB/c background (H-2d), that a substantial number of TCR γδ IEL and TCR αβ CD4?CD8+ αα IEL can be thymically derived (H-2b+). In contrast, but consistent with our NTX data, grafting of adult thymi into nude mice generated virtually no TCR γδ IEL and relatively less TCR αβ CD4?CD8+ αα IEL than did the grafting of fetal thymi. These results suggest that the thymus is the major source of TCR γδ and TCR αβ CD4?CD8+ αα IEL early in ontogeny, but that the extrathymic pathway is probably the major source of these IEL later in ontogeny. A reassessment of the theory that most CD4?CD8+ IEL are extrathymically derived is needed. 相似文献

Human thymoma is a thymic epithelial cell tumour which often contains a large number of immature T cells and is frequently associated with autoimmune diseases. Since thymic epithelial cells play key roles in the development and selection of T cells in the normal thymus, we hypothesized that the neoplastic thymic epithelial cells of thymoma may support T cell differentiation in the tumour. We characterized CD4?CD8? cells in thymoma and applied an in vitro reconstitution culture system using the CD4?CD8? cells and the neoplastic epithelial cells isolated from thymoma. CD34, a stem cell marker, was expressed on 29.9 ± 12.2% of CD4?CD8? cells in thymoma. TCRγδ was expressed on 27.4 ± 15.1% of CD4?CD8? cells and CD19, a B cell marker, was expressed on 14.1 ± 23.1% of CD4?CD8? cells. CD4?CD8? cells expressed both IL-7R α-chain and common γ-chain. Purified CD4?CD8? cells from thymomas were cultured with the neoplastic epithelial cells, and their differentiation into CD4+CD8+ cells via CD4 single-positive intermediates was observed within 9 days' co-culture in the presence of recombinant IL-7. Furthermore, we examined the reconstitution culture using CD34+CD4?CD8? cells purified from normal infant thymus. The CD34+CD4?CD8? cells in normal thymus also differentiated to CD4+CD8+ cells in the allogeneic co-culture with the neoplastic epithelial cells of thymoma. These results indicate that the tumour cells of thymoma retain the function of thymic epithelial cells and can induce differentiation of T cells in thymoma. 相似文献

Two aspects of T cell differentiation in T cell receptor (TCR)-transgenic mice, the generation of an unusual population of CD4?CD8?TCR+ thymocytes and the absence of γδ cells, have been the focus of extensive investigation. To examine the basis for these phenomena, we investigated the effects of separate expression of a transgenic TCR α chain and a transgenic TCR β chain on thymocyte differentiation. Our data indicate that expression of a transgenic TCR α chain causes thymocytes to differentiate into a CD4?CD8?TCR+ lineage at an early developmental stage, depleting the number of thymocytes that differentiate into the αβ lineage. Surprisingly, expression of the TCR α chain transgene is also associated with the development of T cell lymphosarcoma. In contrast, expression of the transgenic TCR β chain causes immature T cells to accelerate differentiation into the αβ lineage and thus inhibits the generation of γδ cells. Our observations provide a model for understanding T cell differentiation in TCR-transgenic mice. 相似文献

The specificity of the αβ T cell receptor for class I or class II major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules determines whether a mature T cell will be of the CD4?CD8+ or CD4+CD8? phenotype, respectively. We show here that a human CD4 transgene can rescue a significant fraction of CD4?CD8+ T cells in β2-microglobulin-deficient mice. Cells with this phenotype could be induced to become potent killers of targets expressing allogeneic MHC antigens, indicating that lineage commitment can precede the rescue of developing cells by the T cell receptor for antigen and the CD4 coreceptor. 相似文献

The CD8α?-expressing dendritic cells (DC) of mouse spleen have been shown to be poor inducers of interleukin (IL)-2 production by CD8 T cells when compared to the CD8? DC. As a consequence, CD8 T cells give a more prolonged proliferative response to CD8? DC than to CD8+ DC. The possible mechanisms underlying these functional differences in DC subtype have been investigated. Inadequate co-stimulation did not underlie the poor T cell response to allogeneic CD8+ DC. Equivalent levels of B7-1 (CD80) and B7-2 (CD86) were found on the two DC subtypes and co-stimulator assays did not reveal any functional differences between them. Although CD8+ DC were found to die more rapidly in culture than CD8? DC, this did not explain their reduced stimulatory ability. Neither prolonging DC survival in culture nor renewing the stimulator cells by repeated addition of freshly isolated DC had any significant effect on the T cell responses. Furthermore, later addition to the cultures of DC of the opposite type to the initiating DC did not reverse or eliminate the differential response to the initiating DC. The role of DC-derived soluble factors was examined by addition to the cultures of supernatants derived from freshly isolated or stimulated DC of the opposite type. This neither enhanced the poor stimulatory capacity of CD8+ DC nor inhibited the stimulation by CD8? DC. Furthermore, addition of a series of cytokines that might have been produced by the DC did not eliminate the differences in T cell proliferation. Only the addition to the cultures of the growth factors IL-2 and IL-4 overcame the stimulatory difference between the two DC populations, confirming that the difference in T cell proliferative responses was a consequence of differences in induced cytokine production. The difference in the response of CD8 T cells to CD8+ and CD8? DC is therefore determined by direct DC-T cell contact during the earliest stages of the culture and involves an undetermined and possibly new signaling system. 相似文献

The proportion of CD4− CD8− double-negative (DN) α β T cells is increased both in the thymus and in peripheral lymphoid organs of TCR α chain-transgenic mice. In this report we have characterized this T cell population to elucidate its relationship to α β and γ δ T cells. We show that the transgenic DN cells are phenotypically similar to γ δ T cells but distinct from DN NK T cells. The precursors of DN cells have neither rearranged endogenous TCRα genes nor been negatively selected by the Mlsa antigen, suggesting that they originate from a differentiation stage before the onset of TCR α chain rearrangements and CD4/CD8 gene expression. Neither in-frame VδDδJδ nor VγJγ rearrangements are over-represented in this population. However, since peripheral γ δ T cells with functional TCRβ gene rearrangements have been depleted in the transgenics, we propose that the transgenic DN population, at least partially, originates from the precursors of those cells. The present data lend support to the view that maturation signals to γ δ lineage-committed precursors can be delivered via TCR α β heterodimers. 相似文献

To elucidate the role of NK cells and TCRγ δ + T cells in acute experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) induced in Lewis rats, the distribution, number and function of these cells were studied using several methods. Immunohistochemical and flow cytometric analysis revealed that a certain number of NK cells (17 % of the total inflammatory cells) infiltrated the central nervous system (CNS) at the peak stage of EAE and were mainly located in the perivascular region. On the other hand, virtually no TCRγ δ + T cells were found in the CNS. NK-T (NKR-P1+ TCRα β + ) cells were few and did not increase in number in the CNS and lymphoid organs. In the cytotoxic assay using YAC-1 cells, effector cells isolated from the spleen of rats at the peak of EAE showed essentially the same cytotoxicity as those isolated from normal controls although the total number of NK cells decreased to one fifth of that of normal rats. Furthermore, in vivo administration of anti-NK cell (3.2.3 and anti-asialo GM1), but not of anti-TCRγ δ (V65), antibodies exacerbated the clinical features of EAE and induced fatal EAE in some rats. These findings suggest that NK cells play a suppressive role in acute EAE whereas TCRγ δ + T cells are not involved in the development of or recovery from the disease. 相似文献

Although CD8 T cells are key players in neuroinflammation, little is known about their trafficking cues into the central nervous system (CNS). We used a murine model of CNS autoimmunity to define the molecules involved in cytotoxic CD8 T‐cell migration into the CNS. Using a panel of mAbs, we here show that the α4β1‐integrin is essential for CD8 T‐cell interaction with CNS endothelium. We also investigated which α4β1‐integrin ligands expressed by endothelial cells are implicated. The blockade of VCAM‐1 did not protect against autoimmune encephalomyelitis, and only partly decreased the CD8+ T‐cell infiltration into the CNS. In addition, inhibition of junctional adhesion molecule‐B expressed by CNS endothelial cells also decreases CD8 T‐cell infiltration. CD8 T cells may use additional and possibly unidentified adhesion molecules to gain access to the CNS. 相似文献

Double negative (DN) T cells are CD3+, CD4?, CD8? cells with either T‐cell receptors (TCR) αβ or TCR γδ whose importance on protection against HIV infection is unknown. Since HIV‐exposed seronegative individuals correspond to an ideal group in whom correlates of protection are expected, the role of these cells was studied in 13 HIV‐serodiscordant couples in a stable relationship and reporting unprotected sexual intercourses. HIV‐specific immune responses mediated by DN T‐cells were evaluated by measuring intracellular IFNγ and MIP1β (CCL4) production in response to HIV‐Gag peptides. Thirty‐five healthy controls not exposed to HIV were tested similarly and used to define a threshold for positive responses. Interestingly, Gag‐specific DN T‐cell responses were found in 3/13 (23%) HIV‐exposed seronegative individuals (Group A), involving both DN/αβ+ and DN/γδ+ T‐cells through MIP1β and IFNγ production. 4/13 (30%) of partners infected with HIV (Group B) also showed Gag‐specific responses but were mediated exclusively by DN/γδ+ T‐cells, mainly through IFNγ production. DN T‐cells in Group A individuals can display differential HIV‐specific immune responses, which might contribute to the low susceptibility to infection with HIV shown by individuals in Group A. J.

Splenic γδ T cells (CD4?, CD8?) increased more that 10-fold upon resolution of either Plasmodium chabaudi adami or P. c. chabaudi infections in C57BL/6 mice compared to controls. Similarly, a 10- to 20-fold expansion of the γδ T cell population was observed in β2-microglobulin deficient (β2-m0.0) mice that had resolved P. c. adami, P. c. chabaudi or P. yoelii yoelii infections. In contrast, increases in the number of splenic αβ T cells in these infected mice were only two to three-fold indicating a differential expansion of the γδ T cell subset during malaria. Because nucleated cells of β2-m0/0 mice lack surface expression of major histocompatibility complex class I and class Ib glycoproteins, our findings suggest that antigen presentation by these glycoproteins is not necessary for the increasing number of γδ T cells. Our observation that after resolution of P. c. adami malaria, C57BL/6 mice depleted of CD8+ cells by monoclonal antibody treatment had lower numbers of γδ T. cells than untreated controls suggests that the demonstrated lack of CD8+ cells in β2-m0/0 mice does not contribute to the expansion of the γδ T cell population during non-lethal malaria. 相似文献
