CD4~+CD25~+Treg细胞在慢性乙型肝炎发病机制中的作用研究进展

CD4+CD25+调节性T细胞(CD4+CD25+Treg)是一个具有独特免疫调节功能的T细胞亚群,对维持机体免疫动态平衡具有重要作用。它不仅诱导产生自身免疫耐受,防止自身免疫性疾病的发生,而且能够限制免疫防御中T细胞和B细胞的过度活化,避免造成组织损伤。慢性乙型肝炎患者病毒感染的持续原因可能与体内CD4+CD25+Treg细胞数量或者功能异常,从而降低了机体对HBV发挥特异性效应的CD8+T细胞反应有关。

CD4~+CD25~+调节性T细胞在自身免疫性肝炎发病机制中的作用

自身免疫性肝炎( autoimmune hepatitis,AIH)是一种免疫介导的、慢性肝脏炎症性疾病,以高y球蛋白血症、自身抗体阳性、肝组织学界面炎和免疫抑制治疗有效为特征[1].尽管AIH的发病机制尚未完全阐明,但多项证据表明,遗传易感性、分子模拟学说及调节性T细胞(regulatory T cells,Treg)缺陷参与了自身免疫性肝损伤.免疫系统本身具有区分自己与非己的功能,并可建立及维持自身免疫耐受,以抑制自身抗原的免疫反应,进而预防自身免疫[2].CD4+ CD25+ Treg细胞在维持机体内环境稳定和维持自身免疫耐受方面起重要作用[3].而自身免疫性疾病的发生正是这种免疫耐受被打破,机体不能维持内环境稳定的结果.近年来的研究表明,Treg细胞功能缺陷可能是AIH发病的基础之一[4].本文就CD4+ CD25+ Treg细胞在AIH发病机制中的作用综述如下.

Human CD8+CD25+ thymocytes share phenotypic and functional features with CD4+CD25+ regulatory thymocytes

CD8+CD25+ cells, which expressed high levels of Foxp3, glucocorticoid-induced tumor necrosis factor receptor (GITR), CCR8, tumor necrosis factor receptor 2 (TNFR2), and cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated antigen 4 (CTLA-4) mRNAs, were identified in the fibrous septa and medullary areas of human thymus. Activated CD8+CD25+ thymocytes did not produce cytokines, but most of them expressed surface CTLA-4 and transforming growth factor beta1 (TGF-beta1). Like CD4+CD25+, CD8+CD25+ thymocytes suppressed the proliferation of autologous CD25-T cells via a contact-dependent mechanism. The suppressive activity of CD8+CD25+ thymocytes was abrogated by a mixture of anti-CTLA-4 and anti-TGF-beta1 antibodies and it was mediated by their ability to inhibit the expression of the interleukin 2 receptor alpha chain on target T cells. These results demonstrate the existence of a subset of human CD8+CD25+ thymocytes sharing phenotype, functional features, and mechanism of action with CD4+CD25+ T regulatory cells.

Decrease in CD4+CD25+ and CD8+CD28+ T cells in interstitial pneumonitis associated with rheumatic disease

The expression of CD25 or CD28 on T cells was examined in patients with rheumatic diseases associated with interstitial pneumonitis (IP), in order to investigate the conditions of CD4⁺CD25⁺ regulatory T cells and CD8⁺CD28⁻ suppressor T cells. Fifty-five patients with various rheumatic diseases and 23 normal controls were enrolled. CD4⁺CD25⁺ T cells of patients with IP were significantly decreased in comparison with non-IP patients, and the ratio of CD8⁺CD28⁻ T cells in patients with IP was significantly higher than that in non-IP patients or normal controls. These results for CD8⁺CD28⁻ T cells were in accord with the decrease in CD8⁺CD28⁺ T cells, and may be related to activation-induced CD8⁺CD28⁺ T-cell death. Thus, the abnormality of CD4⁺CD25⁺ regulatory T cells may be related to the pathogenesis of IP, and the survival and activation of CD8⁺ T cells.     

Decrease in CD4+CD25+ and CD8+CD28+ T cells in interstitial pneumonitis associated with rheumatic disease

Abstract

The expression of CD25 or CD28 on T cells was examined in patients with rheumatic diseases associated with interstitial pneumonitis (IP), in order to investigate the conditions of CD4⁺CD25⁺ regulatory T cells and CD8⁺CD28^? suppressor T cells. Fifty-five patients with various rheumatic diseases and 23 normal controls were enrolled. CD4⁺CD25⁺ T cells of patients with IP were significantly decreased in comparison with non-IP patients, and the ratio of CD8⁺CD28^? T cells in patients with IP was significantly higher than that in non-IP patients or normal controls. These results for CD8⁺CD28^? T cells were in accord with the decrease in CD8⁺CD28⁺ T cells, and may be related to activation-induced CD8⁺CD28⁺ T-cell death. Thus, the abnormality of CD4⁺CD25⁺ regulatory T cells may be related to the pathogenesis of IP, and the survival and activation of CD8⁺ T cells.     

CD19+CD5+ cells as indicators of preeclampsia

Preeclampsia is a devastating pregnancy-associated disorder affecting 5% to 8% of pregnant women worldwide. It emerges as an autoimmune-driven disease, and, among others, the autoantibodies against angiotensin type 1 receptor II have been proposed to account for preeclampsia symptoms. Despite much attention focused on describing autoantibodies associated with preeclampsia, there is no clue concerning the cell population producing them. CD19(+)CD5(+) B-1a B cells constitute the main source of natural and polyreactive antibodies, which can be directed against own structures. Here, we aimed to identify the B-cell subpopulation responsible for autoantibody production during preeclampsia and to study their regulation, as well as their possible use as markers for the disease. The frequency of CD19(+)CD5(+) cells in peripheral blood of preeclamptic patients is dramatically increased compared with normal pregnant women as analyzed by flow cytometry. This seems to be driven by the high human chorionic gonadotropin levels present in the serum and placenta supernatant of preeclamptic patients versus normal pregnant women. Not only ≈95% of CD19(+)CD5(+) cells express the human chorionic gonadotropin receptor, but these cells also expand on human chorionic gonadotropin stimulation in a lymphocyte culture. Most importantly, isolated CD19(+)CD5(+) cells produce autoantibodies against angiotensin type 1 receptor II, and CD19(+)CD5(+) cells were further detected in the placenta of preeclamptic but not of normal pregnancies where barely B cells are present. Our results identify a B-cell population able to produce pregnancy-pathological autoantibodies as possible markers for preeclampsia, which opens vast diagnostic and therapeutic applications.     

CD4+CD25+调节性T细胞与支气管哮喘

支气管哮喘是一种常见的慢性呼吸道疾病,其免疫发病机制尚不十分清楚。CD4 CD25 调节性T细胞是一种特殊的调节性T细胞,参与自身免疫调节,维持自身免疫耐受。本文就CD4 CD25 调节性T细胞的特性及与支气管哮喘的发病机制、治疗、预后的研究进展做一综述。     

CD4+ and CD56+ acute monoblastic leukemia.

We report here a patient with acute monoblastic leukemia whose leukemia cells had CD4 (T4) and CD56 (NKH-1) antigens, in addition to CD36 (OKM5) antigen. The leukemia cells did not have NK or ADCC activities. They showed no rearrangements of immunoglobulin heavy (IgH) chain and T cell receptor (TCR)-beta chain genes, indicating that the leukemia cells were nonlymphoid. The presence of this case suggests that leukemia cells could be originated from monocytes with NK-associated antigen without IgH or TCR rearrangements.     

CD4+ CD56+ Hematodermic Neoplasm Without Cutaneous Involvement

First evidence of cases of haemophilia dates from ancient Egypt, but it was when Queen Victoria from England in the 19th century transmitted this illness to her descendants, when it became known as the “royal disease”. Last decades of the 20th century account for major discoveries that improved the life expectancy and quality of life of these patients. The history and evolution of haemophilia healthcare counts ups and downs. The introduction of prophylactic schemes during the 1970s have proved to be more effective that the classic on-demand replacement of clotting factors, nevertheless many patients managed with frequent plasma transfusions or derived products became infected with the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) and Hepatitis C virus during the 1980s and 1990s. Recombinant factor VIII inception has decreased the risk of blood borne infections and restored back longer life expectancies. Main concerns for haemophilia healthcare are shifting from the pure clinical aspects to the economic considerations of long-term replacement therapy. Nowadays researchers’ attention has been placed on the future costs and cost-effectiveness of costly long-term treatment. Equity considerations are relevant as well, and alternative options for less affluent countries are under the scope of further research. The aim of this review was to assess the evidence of different treatment options for haemophilia type A over the past four decades, focusing on the most important technological advances that have influenced the natural course of this “royal disease”.     

CD4＋CD25＋Treg细胞与支气管哮喘

CD4＋CD25＋Treg细胞的主要作用表现为免疫无能性和免疫抑制性,是外周免疫耐受形成机制的主要组成部分。其主要作用机制为分泌抑制性细胞因子（IL-10和TGF-β）、表达细胞表面分子（CTLA-4、GITR等）及Foxp3等。支气管哮喘患者外周血CD4＋CD25＋Treg功能及数量存在异常,这可能是支气管哮喘发病机制之一。糖皮质激素可以通过影响CD4＋CD25＋Treg的状态起到抑制支气管哮喘气道炎症的作用。
