Monoclonal regulatory T cells provide insights into T cell suppression
Regulatory T cells (Tregs) have a crucial role in maintaining lymphocyte homeostasis. However an understanding of how Tregs function at a cellular and molecular level has not yet been fully elucidated. Here, we make use of a T cell receptor (TCR) transgenic, Rag(-/-) mouse expressing a Forkhead-Box-Protein P3 (Foxp3) transgene. This mouse provides a source of monoclonal CD4(+) Foxp3(+) T cells ...
متن کاملDifferentiation, Distribution and γδ T Cell-Driven Regulation of IL-22-Producing T Cells in Tuberculosis
Differentiation, distribution and immune regulation of human IL-22-producing T cells in infections remain unknown. Here, we demonstrated in a nonhuman primate model that M. tuberculosis infection resulted in apparent increases in numbers of T cells capable of producing IL-22 de novo without in vitro Ag stimulation, and drove distribution of these cells more dramatically in lungs than in blood a...
متن کاملPolarization of naive T cells into Th1 or Th2 by distinct cytokine-driven murine dendritic cell populations: implications for immunotherapy.
Dendritic cells (DCs) activate T cells and regulate their differentiation into T helper cell type 1 (Th1) and/or Th2 cells. To identify DCs with differing abilities to direct Th1/Th2 cell differentiation, we cultured mouse bone marrow progenitors in granulocyte macrophage-colony stimulating factor (GM), GM + interleukin (IL)-4, or GM + IL-15 and generated three distinct DC populations. The GM +...
متن کاملDistinct Pattern of Human Vδ1 γδ T Cells Recognizing MICA
γδ T cells represent one unique recognition pattern, the limited recognition, which distinguishes from the specific recognition for αβ T cells and pattern recognition for macrophages. Vδ1 γδ T cell is the major subset of human γδ T cells, which predominates in mucosal tissue including the intestinal epithelia. Presently, a few antigens that human Vδ1TCR can recognize have been identified. Among...
متن کاملEssential requirements of zoledronate-induced cytokine and γδ T cell proliferative responses.
The potent nitrogen-containing bisphosphonate zoledronate inhibits farnesyl pyrophosphate synthase, a key enzyme of the mevalonate pathway that is often hyperactive in malignant cells. Zoledronate activates human Vγ9Vδ2 T cells, which are immune sentinels of cell stress and tumors, through upstream accumulation of the cognate Ag isopentenyl pyrophosphate. IL-18 was shown to enhance zoledronate-...
