Wani1 IL-3, a cytokine secreted by activated T lymphocytes, is known to regulate the proliferation, survival, and differentiation of hematopoietic cells. However, the role of IL-3 in regulation of T cell functions is not fully delineated. Previously, we have reported that IL-3 plays an important role in development of regulatory T cells in mice. In this study, we investigated the regulation of IL-3R expression on human Th cells and also examined the role of IL-3 in effector functions of these cells. We found that human peripheral blood Th cells in resting state do not show surface expression of IL-3R; however, its expression was observed at transcript and intracellular protein levels. The functional IL-3R expression on the surface was seen only after antigenic stimu- Downloaded from lation. When naive Th cells were activated in the presence of various cytokines, we found that IL-4 significantly increases the surface expression of IL-3R and also increases the number of IL-3R+ Th cells. Interestingly, IL-3R+ cells exhibit a Th2 cell–like phenotype and show high GATA-3 expression. Moreover, Th2 cells in presence of IL-3 show increased expression of type 2 effector cytokines, such as IL-4, IL-5, and IL-13. Furthermore, IL-3R expressing and IL-3–secreting Th cells were high in house dust mite– allergic patients. Thus, to our knowledge, we provide the first evidence that the expression of IL-3R on activated human Th cells is modulated by IL-4, and IL-3 regulates the effector functions of Th2 cells. Our results suggest that IL-3 may play an important http://www.jimmunol.org/ role in regulating allergic immune responses.

IL-3 inhibits mouse keratinocytes, are also known to secrete IL-3 (2–9).

IL-3 also inhibits human oste- a-subunit, and a common b-subunit which is also shared by IL-5 oclast differentiation and diverts the cells toward dendritic cell and GM-CSF, and these three cytokines form a discrete group lineage (15). Importantly, we have demonstrated that IL-3 has known as the b common–chain cytokine family. The a-subunit anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory properties and protects of IL-3R determines the ligand specificity and binds to IL-3 with bone and cartilage loss in vivo in arthritic mice by upregulating low affinity, whereas the b common subunit does not bind to IL-3 regulatory T (Treg) cells (16, 17).

The term ‘interleukin’ (IL) has been used to describe a group of cytokines with complex immunomodulatory functions — including cell proliferation, maturation, migration and adhesion. These cytokines also play an important role in immune cell differentiation and activation. Determining the exact function of a particular cytokine is complicated by the influence of the producing cell type, the responding cell type and the phase of the immune response. ILs can also have pro- and anti-inflammatory effects, further complicating their characterisation. These molecules are under constant pressure to evolve due to continual competition between the host’s immune system and infecting organisms; as such, ILs have undergone significant evolution. This has resulted in little amino acid conservation between orthologous proteins, which further complicates the gene family organisation. Within the literature there are a number of overlapping nomenclature and classification systems derived from biological function, receptor-binding properties and originating cell type.

  • Human Cytokine Response Profiles
    Comprehensive Understanding of the Human Cytokine Response Profiles A. Background The current project aims to collect datasets profiling gene expression patterns of human cytokine treatment response from the NCBI GEO and EBI ArrayExpress databases. The Framework for Data Curation already hosted a list of candidate datasets. You will read the study design and sample annotations to select the relevant datasets and label the sample conditions to enable automatic analysis. If you want to build a new data collection project for your topic of interest instead of working on our existing cytokine project, please read section D. We will explain the cytokine project’s configurations to give you an example on creating your curation task. A.1. Cytokine Cytokines are a broad category of small proteins mediating cell signaling. Many cell types can release cytokines and receive cytokines from other producers through receptors on the cell surface. Despite some overlap in the literature terminology, we exclude chemokines, hormones, or growth factors, which are also essential cell signaling molecules. Meanwhile, we count two cytokines in the same family as the same if they share the same receptors. In this project, we will focus on the following families and use the member symbols as standard names (Table 1). Family Members (use these symbols as standard cytokine names) Colony-stimulating factor GCSF, GMCSF, MCSF Interferon IFNA, IFNB, IFNG Interleukin IL1, IL1RA, IL2, IL3, IL4, IL5, IL6, IL7, IL9, IL10, IL11, IL12, IL13, IL15, IL16, IL17, IL18, IL19, IL20, IL21, IL22, IL23, IL24, IL25, IL26, IL27, IL28, IL29, IL30, IL31, IL32, IL33, IL34, IL35, IL36, IL36RA, IL37, TSLP, LIF, OSM Tumor necrosis factor TNFA, LTA, LTB, CD40L, FASL, CD27L, CD30L, 41BBL, TRAIL, OPGL, APRIL, LIGHT, TWEAK, BAFF Unassigned TGFB, MIF Table 1.

  • Leukocyte Adhesion Molecule 1 Gene Activation of Human Endothelial Cells
    Interleukin 3 stimulates proliferation and triggers endothelial- leukocyte adhesion molecule 1 gene activation of human endothelial cells. M F Brizzi, … , G C Avanzi, L Pegoraro J Clin Invest. 1993;91(6):2887-2892. https://doi.org/10.1172/JCI116534. Research Article Proliferation and functional activation of endothelial cells within a tissue site of inflammation are regulated by humoral factors released by cells, such as T lymphocytes and monocytes, infiltrating the perivascular space. In the present study we investigated the effects of interleukin 3 (IL-3), an activated T lymphocyte-derived cytokine, on cultured human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC). Proliferative activity, evaluated both by estimation of the fraction of cells in the S phase and by direct cell count demonstrated that IL-3, at the dose of 25 ng/ml, enhances more than threefold both DNA synthesis and cell proliferation above baseline control conditions. Binding studies with radioiodinated ligand demonstrated that HUVEC constitutively express a smaller number of IL-3 binding sites (approximately 99 binding sites per cell, with an apparent Kd of 149 pM). Accordingly, molecular analysis showed the presence of transcripts for both alpha and beta subunits of the IL-3 receptor. Functional activation of endothelial cells was evaluated by the expression of the endothelial- leukocyte adhesion molecule 1 (ELAM-1) transcript and by leukocyte adhesion. The ELAM-1 gene transcript was clearly detectable 4 h after IL-3 addition and started to decrease after 12 h. Moreover, IL-3-induced

  • Bhlhe40 Controls Cytokine Production by T Cells and Is Essential for Pathogenicity in Autoimmune Neuroinflammation

Bradstreet1, Elizabeth A. Schwarzkopf1, Julia Sim2, Javier A. Carrero1, Chun Chou1, Lindsey E. Cook1, Takeshi Egawa1, Reshma Taneja3, Theresa L. Murphy1, John H. Russell2 & Brian T. Edelson1 TH1 and TH17 cells mediate neuroinflammation in experimental autoimmune encephalo- myelitis (EAE), a mouse model of multiple sclerosis. Pathogenic TH cells in EAE must produce the pro-inflammatory cytokine granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF). TH cell pathogenicity in EAE is also regulated by cell-intrinsic production of the immuno- suppressive cytokine interleukin 10 (IL-10). Here we demonstrate that mice deficient for the basic helix–loop–helix (bHLH) transcription factor Bhlhe40 (Bhlhe40 À / À ) are resistant to the induction of EAE. Bhlhe40 is required in vivo in a T cell-intrinsic manner, where it posi- tively regulates the production of GM-CSF and negatively regulates the production of IL-10. À / À In vitro, GM-CSF secretion is selectively abrogated in polarized Bhlhe40 TH1 and TH17 cells, and these cells show increased production of IL-10. Blockade of IL-10 receptor in Bhlhe40 À / À mice renders them susceptible to EAE. These findings identify Bhlhe40 as a critical regulator of autoreactive T-cell pathogenicity. 1 Department of Pathology and Immunology, Washington University School of Medicine, St Louis, Missouri 63110, USA. 2 Department of Developmental Biology, Washington University School of Medicine, St Louis, Missouri 63110, USA.

  • IL-23 Drives Pathogenic IL-17-Producing CD8 T Cells
    The Journal of Immunology IL-23 Drives Pathogenic IL-17-Producing CD8؉ T Cells1 Bogoljub Ciric,2,3* Mohamed El-behi,3* Rosalyn Cabrera,† Guang-Xian Zhang,* and Abdolmohamad Rostami* ,IL-17-producing CD8؉ T cells (Tc17) appear to play a role in a range of conditions, such as autoimmunity and cancer. Thus far Tc17 cells have been only marginally studied, resulting in a paucity of data on their biology and function. We demonstrate that Tc17 and Th17 cells share similar developmental characteristics, including the previously unknown promoting effect of IL-21 on Tc17 cell differentiation and IL-23-dependent expression of IL-22. Both STAT1 and STAT4 are required for optimal devel- opment of Tc17 cells and maximal secretion of cytokines. Tc17 cells are cytotoxic, and they can be either pathogenic or non- pathogenic upon adoptive transfer in the model of autoimmune diabetes. Tc17 cells treated with TGF-␤1 plus IL-6 are not diabetogenic, whereas IL-23-treated cells potently induce the disease. IL-17A and IL-17F are necessary but not sufficient for diabetes induction by Tc17 cells. Tc17 cells treated with TGF-␤1 plus IL-6 or IL-23 likely differ in pathogenicity due to their disparate capacity to attract other immune cells and initiate inflammation.

The non-hematopoietic cell-derived cytokines thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP), IL-33 and IL-25 (IL-17E) have been implicated in promoting Th2 cell-dependent inflammation at mucosal sites [1-4], but how these cytokines influence innate immune responses are less well defined. Studies in Chapter 2 and 3 examined the cellular mechanisms through which IL-25 promotes Th2 cell responses and demonstrated that IL-25 promotes the accumulation of a previously unrecognized non-B/non-T cell (NBNT) c-kit+ cell population in the gut-associated lymphoid tissue (GALT). Adoptive transfer of IL-25-elicited c-kit+ cells promoted Th2 cytokine responses and conferred protective immunity to helminth infection in normally susceptible Il17e-/- mice. In Chapter 3, characterization of the IL-25-elicited c-kit+ cells revealed these cells to be a lineage negative (Linneg) multi-potent progenitor (MPP) cell population.
