T-cell compartments of prediabetic NOD mice.
Given the importance of the NOD mouse as a model of type 1 diabetes, there is a surprising lack of published information on the overall composition of the thymic and peripheral T-cell compartments. In this study, we revisited some earlier reports of T-cell abnormalities in this strain and examined a number of additional parameters to provide a global view of T-cells in prediabetic NOD mice. In ...
متن کاملPrevention of CpG-Induced Pregnancy Disruption by Adoptive Transfer of In Vitro-Induced Regulatory T Cells
OBJECTIVE To elucidate the mechanism by which embryo-resorption and preterm birth were enhanced by pathogenic CpG motif and to develop a counter strategy for normal pregnancy outcome. METHODS This is an animal model-based study. In pregnant nonobese diabetic (NOD) mice and wild-type (WT) mice in the same strain background, an infection was mimicked by toll-like receptor 9 (TLR9) activation th...
متن کاملTransfer of regulatory properties from tolerogenic to proinflammatory dendritic cells via induced autoreactive regulatory T cells.
Infectious tolerance is a term generally assigned to the process through which regulatory T cells (Tregs) transfer immunoregulatory properties to other T cells. In this study, we demonstrated that a similar process applies to human dendritic cells (DCs), albeit through a different mechanism. We induced and cloned proinsulin-specific Tregs using tolerogenic DCs and investigated mechanisms by whi...
متن کاملAdoptive transfer of autoimmune splenic dendritic cells to lupus-prone mice triggers a B lymphocyte humoral response
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disease characterized by increased autoantibody production that leads to multiple tissue injuries. Dendritic cells (DCs) are important orchestrators of immune responses and key components in fine-tuning the balance between tolerance and immunity. However, their role in autoimmune disorders such as SLE remains uncertain. We analyzed the contrib...
متن کاملAdoptive Transfer of Immunomodulatory M2 Macrophages Prevents Type 1 Diabetes in NOD Mice
Macrophages are multifunctional immune cells that may either drive or modulate disease pathogenesis depending on their activation phenotype. Autoimmune type 1 diabetes (T1D) is a chronic proinflammatory condition characterized by unresolved destruction of pancreatic islets. Adoptive cell transfer of macrophages with immunosuppressive properties represents a novel immunotherapy for treatment of ...
