Clonal anergy is maintained independently of T cell proliferation.
Ag encounter in the absence of proliferation results in the establishment of T cell unresponsiveness, also known as T cell clonal anergy. Anergic T cells fail to proliferate upon restimulation because of the inability to produce IL-2 and to properly regulate the G(1) cell cycle checkpoint. Because optimal TCR and CD28 engagement can elicit IL-2-independent cell cycle progression, we investigate...
متن کاملHuman T-cell clonal anergy is induced by antigen presentation in the absence of B7 costimulation.
The maximal T-cell response to its antigen requires presentation of the antigen by a major histocompatibility complex class II molecule as well as the delivery of one or more costimulatory signals provided by the antigen-presenting cell (APC). Although a number of candidate molecules have been identified that are capable of delivering a costimulatory signal, increasing evidence suggests that on...
متن کاملNdrg1 is a T-cell clonal anergy factor negatively regulated by CD28 costimulation and interleukin-2
Induction of T-cell clonal anergy involves serial activation of transcription factors, including NFAT and Egr2/3. However, downstream effector mechanisms of these transcription factors are not fully understood yet. Here we identify Ndrg1 as an anergy factor induced by Egr2. Ndrg1 is upregulated by anergic signalling and maintained at high levels in resting anergic T cells. Overexpression of Ndr...
متن کاملHuman T-cell development in SCID-hu mice: staphylococcal enterotoxins induce specific clonal deletions, proliferation, and anergy.
SCID-hu mice provide an in vivo model for studying the events of normal intrathymic human T-cell development and differentiation. We injected SCID-hu mice with staphylococcal enterotoxins (SE) and determined their effects on the development and responsiveness of human T-cell populations defined by their expression of CD4 and CD8, and the type of V beta molecule in their T-cell receptors. After ...
متن کاملTh2 cell clonal anergy as a consequence of partial activation
We have demonstrated Th2 clonal anergy as a consequence of partial T cell activation by immunogenic peptide and chemically fixed APC, as well as by altered peptide ligand and live antigen-presenting cells (APC). Either stimulation resulted in a profound inability of the T cells to proliferate upon restimulation with antigen and functional APC, a similar phenomenon to that found with Th1 cells. ...
