Fc receptor-like 3 protein expressed on IL-2 nonresponsive subset of human regulatory T cells.
Fc receptor-like 3 (FCRL3) is a cell surface protein homologous to Fc receptors. The FCRL3 gene is present in humans but not in mice. We found that FCRL3 protein is expressed on 40% of human naturally occurring CD4(+) regulatory T (nTreg) cells (CD4(+)CD25(+)CD127(low)). Sorted nTreg cells with the surface phenotype FCRL3(+) and FCRL3(-) were both hypoproliferative to TCR stimulation and both s...
متن کاملP-33: Expression of Toll-Like Receptor 2-3 Genes in Human Sertoli Cells
Background: Toll-like receptors (TLRs) constitute a major part of innate immunity, which can distinguish pathogen associate molecular pattern. Sertoli cells create a special immunological niche that protects somniferous tubules from auto antigens and pathogens. These cells are the only somatic cells in somniferous that protect testis cells against pathogens. The purpose of this study was to eva...

متن کاملModeling IL-2 gene expression in human regulatory T cells.
Interleukin-2 (IL-2) is one of the first cytokines to be expressed by T helper cells (Th cells) after antigen-specific stimulation. In contrast, regulatory T cells (T(reg) cells) do not express IL-2, although they are activated via the same pathways. In regulatory T cells the additional transcription factor FoxP3 is expressed. Using intracellular measurement of the transcription factors NFAT an...
متن کاملIL-2, regulatory T cells, and tolerance.
IL-2 is a potent T cell growth factor that for many years was assumed to amplify lymphocyte responses in vivo. Accordingly, IL-2 has been used clinically to enhance T cell immunity in patients with AIDS or cancer, and blocking Abs to the IL-2R are used to inhibit T cell responses against transplanted tissues. It was later shown in mice that, unexpectedly, disruption of the IL-2 pathway results ...
