Transcription factor of the Rel/NF-κB family are known to play different roles in immunity and inflammation, although the putative role of c-Rel in transplant tolerance and GVHD remains elusive. We report here that T cells deficient for c-Rel have a dramatically reduced ability to cause acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) after allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (BMT) using major and minor histocompatibility mismatched murine models. In the study to understand the underlying mechanisms, we found that c-Rel-/- T cells had reduced ability to expand in lymphoid organs and to infiltrate in GVHD target organs in allogeneic recipients. c-Rel-/- T cells were defective in the differentiation into Th1 cells after encountering alloantigens, but were enhanced in the differentiation towards Foxp3+ regulatory T cells (Tregs). Furthermore, c-Rel-/- T cells had largely preserved activity to mediate graft-versus leukemia (GVL) response. Taken together, our findings indicate that c-Rel plays an essential role in T cells in the induction of acute GVHD, and suggest that c-Rel can be a potential target for therapeutic intervention in allogeneic HCT in clinic.
