T Cells − CD25 + Colitis Induced by CD4 Carbonic Anhydrase I Protect The Journal of Immunology Regulatory Dendritic Cells Pulsed with Carbonic Anhydrase I Protect Mice from Colitis Induced by CD4+CD252 T Cells Hirofumi Yamanishi,* Hidehiro Murakami,† Yoshiou Ikeda,* Masanori Abe,* Teru Kumagi,* Yoichi Hiasa,* Bunzo Matsuura,* and Morikazu Onji* Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), which is characterized by a dysregulated intestinal immune response, is postulated to be con- trolled 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 ther- apeutic 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+CD252 T cells obtained from BALB/c mice into SCID mice. Mice were treated with CBA- or CA I-pulsed Reg-DCs (Reg- DCsCBA or Reg-DCsCA1), which expressed CD200 receptor 3 and produced high levels of IL-10. Treatment with Reg-DCsCBA and Reg-DCsCA1 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 RORgt mRNA expression was lower in the mesenteric lymph nodes (MLNs) of the Reg-DCsCA1–treated mice compared with those in the MLNs of control mice. In the MLNs, Reg-DCsCA1–treated mice had higher mRNA expression of IL-10 and TGF-b1 and lower IL-17 mRNA expression and + + + protein production compared with those of control mice. In addition, Reg-DCsCBA–treated mice had higher Foxp3 CD4 CD25 and IL-10–producing regulatory T cell frequencies in MLNs. In conclusion, Reg-DCsCA1 protected progression of colitis induced by CD4+CD252 T cell transfer in an Ag-specific manner by inducing the differentiation of regulatory T cells.

Abstract Autoimmunity can occur when self-reactive lymphocytes of the adaptive immune system are activated upon encounter with antigen. This can lead to the development of debilitating and potentially life-threatening autoimmune diseases such as type-1 diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis and multiple sclerosis. Regulatory T cells (Tregs) are a subset of CD4+ T cells that express the lineage-specific transcription factor Foxp3 and exert dominant peripheral tolerance to maintain immune homeostasis. It is therefore important to fully understand the underlying mechanisms of Treg development, homeostasis and function due to the positive and negative effects that therapeutic manipulation could have on this essential T lymphocyte population. Many effector molecules have been proposed to have a central role in regulatory T cell function, and it is now clear that Tregs are equipped with multiple mechanisms by which to exert suppressive function.

All rights reserved 1672-7681/15 $32.00 www.nature.com/cmi REVIEW Type 1 regulatory T cells: a new mechanism of peripheral immune tolerance Hanyu Zeng, Rong Zhang, Boquan Jin and Lihua Chen The lack of immune response to an antigen, a process known as immune tolerance, is essential for the preservation of immune homeostasis. To date, two mechanisms that drive immune tolerance have been described extensively: central tolerance and peripheral tolerance. Under the new nomenclature, thymus-derived regulatory T (tTreg) cells are the major mediators of central immune tolerance, whereas peripherally derived regulatory T (pTreg) cells function to regulate 1 peripheral immune tolerance. A third type of Treg cells, termed iTreg, represents only the in vitro-induced Treg cells . Depending on whether the cells stably express Foxp3, pTreg, and iTreg cells may be divided into two subsets: the classical 1 1 1 2 2 CD4 Foxp3 Treg cells and the CD4 Foxp3 type 1 regulatory T (Tr1) cells .

Villablanca 3, Nicola Gagliani1,2,3 & Samuel Huber1 1234567890():,; IL-10 is a prototypical anti-inflammatory cytokine, which is fundamental to the maintenance of immune homeostasis, especially in the intestine. There is an assumption that cells producing IL- 10 have an immunoregulatory function. However, here we report that IL-10-producing CD4+ T cells are phenotypically and functionally heterogeneous. By combining single cell tran- scriptome and functional analyses, we identified a subpopulation of IL-10-producing Foxp3neg CD4+ T cells that displays regulatory activity unlike other IL-10-producing CD4+ Tcells,which are unexpectedly pro-inflammatory. The combinatorial expression of co-inhibitory receptors is sufficient to discriminate IL-10-producing CD4+ T cells with regulatory function from others and to identify them across different tissues and disease models in mice and humans. These regulatory IL-10-producing Foxp3neg CD4+ T cells have a unique transcriptional program, which goes beyond the regulation of IL-10 expression. Finally, we found that patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease demonstrate a deficiency in this specific regulatory T-cell subpopulation. 1 I.

Since pediatric AML (pAML) and adult AML are different on a genetic and epigenetic level, we investigate herein whether LV-10 cells also efficiently kill pAML cells. We show that the majority of primary pAML are killed by LV-10 cells, with different levels of sensitivity to killing. Transcriptionally, pAML sensitive to LV-10 killing expressed a myeloid maturation signature.

Wraith1,2* 1 School of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, University of Bristol, Bristol, UK, 2 Institute of Immunology and Immunotherapy, University of Birmingham, Birmingham, UK The immune system evolved to respond to foreign invaders and prevent autoimmunity to self-antigens. Several types of regulatory T cells facilitate the latter process. These include a subset of Foxp3− CD4+ T cells able to secrete IL-10 in an antigen-specific manner, type 1 regulatory (Tr1) T cells. Although their suppressive function has been confirmed both in vitro and in vivo, their phenotype remains poorly defined.

Although first discovered to be involved in Th1 cell differentiation, further studies demonstrated the immunosuppressive functions of IL-27 including inhibition of Th2 and Th17 differentiation, development of a tolerogenic phenotype in dendritic cells (DC), and promoting type 1 regulatory T cells (Tr1). The anti-inflammatory effects of IL-27 have been demonstrated in vivo in murine models of parasitic infections and autoimmune diseases. Despite the prevalence of studies detailing the induction of IL-27 expression and the role of IL-27 in Tr1 differentiation, little is known about factors that negatively regulate IL-27 expression and Tr1 differentiation. Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), a lipid mediator abundant at inflammatory sites, was shown to act as a proinflammatory agent in models of inflammatory/autoimmune diseases primarily by promoting CD4 Th1/Th17 differentiation.

  • Regulatory T Cells in Multiple Sclerosis and Myasthenia Gravis K
    Danikowski et al. Journal of Neuroinflammation (2017) 14:117 DOI 10.1186/s12974-017-0892-8 REVIEW Open Access Regulatory T cells in multiple sclerosis and myasthenia gravis K. M. Danikowski, S. Jayaraman and B. S. Prabhakar* Abstract Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic debilitating disease of the central nervous system primarily mediated by T lymphocytes with specificity to neuronal antigens in genetically susceptible individuals. On the other hand, myasthenia gravis (MG) primarily involves destruction of the neuromuscular junction by antibodies specific to the acetylcholine receptor. Both autoimmune diseases are thought to result from loss of self-tolerance, which allows for the development and function of autoreactive lymphocytes. Although the mechanisms underlying compromised self-tolerance in these and other autoimmune diseases have not been fully elucidated, one possibility is numerical, functional, and/or migratory deficits in T regulatory cells (Tregs). Tregs are thought to play a critical role in the maintenance of peripheral immune tolerance. It is believed that Tregs function by suppressing the effector CD4+ T cell subsets that mediate autoimmune responses. Dysregulation of suppressive and migratory markers on Tregs have been linked to the pathogenesis of both MS and MG. For example, genetic abnormalities have been found in Treg suppressive markers CTLA-4 and CD25, while others have shown a decreased expression of FoxP3 and IL-10. Furthermore, elevated levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines such as IL-6, IL-17, and IFN-γ secreted by T effectors have been noted in MS and MG patients. This review provides several strategies of treatment which have been shown to be effective or are proposed as potential therapies to restore the function of various Treg subsets including Tr1, iTr35, nTregs, and iTregs.
