Pim-1 kinase regulates CD4+T cell differentiation

چکیده
This study aimed to investigate the role of Pim-1 kinase in the regulation of naïve CD4+T cell differentiation. Naive CD4+T cells were isolated from the spleen of the mice and treated with different cytokines and Pim-1 kinase inhibitor. The expression of T-bet, GATA3, FOXP3 and RORγt proteins in naïve CD4+T cells was detected by Western blot analysis. The expression of cytokines IL-4, TGF-β, IFNγ and IL-17 in supernatant was detected by ELISA. We found that the inhibition of Pim-1 kinase significantly reduced the expression of T-bet and ROR-γt during naïve CD4+T cells differentiation and inhibited the secretion of IFNγ and IL17 (P<0.05). In conclusion, our study suggests that Pim-1 kinase promotes the differentiation of naive CD4+T cells into Th1 and Th17 cells.

Evidence implicating Gfi-1 and Pim-1 in pre-T-cell differentiation steps associated with beta-selection.
After rearrangement of the T-cell receptor (TCR) beta-locus, early CD4(-)/CD8(-) double negative (DN) thymic T-cells undergo a process termed 'beta-selection' that allows the preferential expansion of cells with a functional TCR beta-chain. This process leads to the formation of a rapidly cycling subset of DN cells that subsequently develop into CD4(+)/CD8(+) double positive (DP) cells. Using t...

Pim kinases are emerging as important mediators of cytokine signaling pathways in hematopoietic cells. In this study, we demonstrate that Pim-1 positively regulates RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis and that Pim-1 expression can be upregulated by RANKL signaling during osteoclast differentiation. The silencing of Pim-1 by RNA interference or overexpression of a dominant negative form of Pim-1 (P...
متن کاملDendritic cell MST1 inhibits Th17 differentiation
Although the differentiation of CD4+T cells is widely studied, the mechanisms of antigen-presenting cell-dependent T-cell modulation are unclear. Here, we investigate the role of dendritic cell (DC)-dependent T-cell differentiation in autoimmune and antifungal inflammation and find that mammalian sterile 20-like kinase 1 (MST1) signalling from DCs negatively regulates IL-17 producing-CD4+T help...
متن کاملPhosphatidylinositol mannoside from Mycobacterium tuberculosis binds alpha5beta1 integrin (VLA-5) on CD4+ T cells and induces adhesion to fibronectin.
The pathological hallmark of the host response to Mycobacterium tuberculosis is the granuloma where T cells and macrophages interact with the extracellular matrix (ECM) to control the infection. Recruitment and retention of T cells within inflamed tissues depend on adhesion to the ECM. T cells use integrins to adhere to the ECM, and fibronectin (FN) is one of its major components. We have found...

The PIM family of oncogenic serine/threonine kinases regulates tumour cell proliferation. To identify proliferative signaling pathways that are regulated by PIM kinases we analyzed gene expression differences in DU-145 and PC3 prostate cancer derived cells induced by treatment with the recently developed highly selective PIM kinase inhibitor M-110. This identified 97 genes the expression of whi...
