Specific Immunosuppression with Inducible Foxp3-Transduced Polyclonal T cells
Forkhead box p3 (Foxp3)-expressing regulatory T cells are key mediators of peripheral tolerance suppressing undesirable immune responses. Ectopic expression of Foxp3 confers regulatory T cell phenotype to conventional T cells, lending itself to therapeutic use in the prevention of autoimmunity and transplant rejection. Here, we show that adoptive transfer of polyclonal, wild-type T cells transd...
متن کاملFoxp3-transduced polyclonal regulatory T cells protect against chronic renal injury from adriamycin.
Chronic proteinuric renal injury is a major cause of ESRD. Adriamycin nephropathy is a murine model of chronic proteinuric renal disease whereby chemical injury is followed by immune and structural changes that mimic human disease. Foxp3 is a gene that induces a regulatory T cell (Treg) phenotype. It was hypothesized that Foxp3-transduced Treg could protect against renal injury in Adriamycin ne...
متن کاملRapid Publication Antigen-Specific FoxP3-Transduced T-Cells Can Control Established Type 1 Diabetes
CD4 CD25 T-cells can be used to interfere with spontaneous autoimmune diseases such as type 1 diabetes. However, their low frequency and often unknown specificity represent major obstacles to their therapeutic use. Here we have explored the fact that ectopic expression of the transcription factor Foxp3 can confer a suppressor phenotype to naı̈ve CD4 T-cells. We found that retroviral transduction...
متن کاملCD8+ Foxp3+ regulatory T cells mediate immunosuppression in prostate cancer.
PURPOSE Although elevated proportions of CD4(+)CD25(+) regulatory T (Treg) cells have been shown in several types of cancers, very little is known about the existence and function of CD8(+) Treg cells in prostate cancer. In this study, we investigated prostate tumor-derived CD8(+) Treg cells and their function. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN Tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) from fresh tumor specimen...
متن کاملT Helper Cells Profile and CD4+CD25+Foxp3+Regulatory T Cells in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Background: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is considered as the most common cause of female infertility that affects 4-10% of women in the reproductive age. Previous studies have shown the role of a balanced immune response in a successful pregnancy and fertility. Objective: To investigate the T helper cells type 1 (Th1) /Th2/Th17/Treg paradigms in peripheral blood of infertile PCOS compared ...
