Inhibitory feedback loop between tolerogenic dendritic cells and regulatory T cells in transplant tolerance.

چکیده
An active role of T regulatory cells (Treg) and tolerogenic dendritic cells (Tol-DC) is believed important for the induction and maintenance of transplantation tolerance. However, interactions between these cells remain unclear. We induced donor-specific tolerance in a fully MHC-mismatched murine model of cardiac transplantation by simultaneously targeting T cell and DC function using anti-CD45RB mAb and LF 15-0195, a novel analog of the antirejection drug 15-deoxyspergualin, respectively. Increases in splenic Treg and Tol-DC were observed in tolerant recipients as assessed by an increase in CD4(+)CD25(+) T cells and DC with immature phenotype. Both these cell types exerted suppressive effects in MLR. Tol-DC purified from tolerant recipients incubated with naive T cells induced the generation/expansion of CD4(+)CD25(+) Treg. Furthermore, incubation of Treg isolated from tolerant recipients with DC progenitors resulted in the generation of DC with Tol-DC phenotype. Treg and Tol-DC generated in vitro were functional based on their suppressive activity in vitro. These results are consistent with the notion that tolerance induction is associated with a self-maintaining regulatory loop in which Tol-DC induce the generation of Treg from naive T cells and Treg programs the generation of Tol-DC from DC progenitors.

متن کاملDendritic Cells in Transplant Tolerance
Dendritic cells (DCs) are a heterogeneous family of professional APCs involved in priming adaptive immune responses. Donor DCs (direct pathway of allorecognition) and recipient DCs presenting processed donor major histocompatibility complex (MHC) as peptides (indirect pathway of allorecognition) participate actively in graft rejection by stimulating recipient T cell responses following organ tr...

Background: Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are considered as effective therapeutic cells in transplantation due to their immunomodulatory activities. However, precise mechanism of MSCs immunomodulatory activity is not completely understood. Objectives: To study the role of Immunoglobulin-like transcripts-3 (ILT3) immunomodulatory receptor in immune tolerance induced by MSCs in skin transpla...
متن کاملRole of Dendritic Cells in the Induction of Lymphocyte Tolerance
The ability of dendritic cells (DCs) to trigger tolerance or immunity is dictated by the context in which an antigen is encountered. A large body of evidence indicates that antigen presentation by steady-state DCs induces peripheral tolerance through mechanisms such as the secretion of soluble factors, the clonal deletion of autoreactive T cells, and feedback control of regulatory T cells. More...
