Polarization of naive CD4+ T cells toward the Th1 subset by CTLA-4 costimulation.
In this study, we examined in vitro the role of CTLA-4 costimulation in the polarization of naive CD4+ T cells toward the Th1 subset. When CTLA-4 costimulation was blocked by the inclusion of anti-CTLA-4 Fab in cultures during priming of naive CD4+ T cells with anti-CD3 in the presence of splenic adherent cells, they were polarized toward the Th2 subset. Conversely, the engagement of CTLA-4 wit...
متن کاملB7-mediated costimulation of CD4 T cells constrains cytomegalovirus persistence.
Cytomegalovirus (CMV) utilizes multiple strategies to modulate immunity and promote lifelong, persistent/latent infection, including suppressing T cell activation pathways. Here we examined the role of B7 costimulatory ligands in establishing immune détente from both the host and virus perspectives. Mice lacking both B7.1 and B7.2 showed reduced early expansion of CMV-specific CD4 T cells, cons...
متن کاملCTLA-4 engagement and regulatory CD4+CD25+ T cells independently control CD8+-mediated responses under costimulation blockade.
Blockade of costimulatory signals is a promising therapeutic target to prevent allograft rejection. In this study, we sought to characterize to what extent CTLA-4 engagement contributes to the development of transplantation tolerance under the cover of CD40/CD40L and CD28/CD86 blockade. In vitro, we found that inhibition of the primary alloresponse and induction of alloantigen hyporesponsivenes...
متن کاملResting and anergic B cells are defective in CD28-dependent costimulation of naive CD4+ T cells
Successful antibody production in vivo depends on a number of cellular events, one of the most important of these being cognate B cell-T cell interaction. To examine this phenomenon in vitro, homogeneous populations of hen egg lysozyme (HEL)-specific small resting B cells and naive CD4+ HEL-specific T cells (derived from immunoglobulin [Ig] and T cell receptor transgenic mice, respectively) wer...
متن کاملReduced Neointima Formation After Arterial Injury in CD4−/− Mice Is Mediated by CD8+CD28hi T Cells
BACKGROUND CD8(+) T-cell activation, characterized by increased CD28 expression, reduces neointima formation after arterial injury in mice. The CD8(+)CD28(hi) phenotype is associated with increased effector function. In this study, we used a mouse model that has CD8(+) but no CD4(+) T cells (CD4-/-) to assess the role of CD8(+) T cells and test the function of CD8(+)CD28(hi) T cells in modulati...
