背景共刺激在CD 4(+)T细胞通过专职APC活化中的作用已被充分确立,而当CD 4 + T细胞直接与肿瘤细胞相互作用时,共刺激所起的作用知之甚少。IL-13 R α 2-特异性IL-13-zetakine结果与单独的CD 3 zeta介导的活化相比,表达IL 13-CD 28 - 41 BB zeta CAR的CD 4(+)效应T细胞表现出增强/持续的MAPK和AKT活性,上调Th 1细胞因子的产生,并增强对肿瘤靶点的细胞溶解效力。此外,在用肿瘤递归刺激后,IL-13-CD 28 - 41 BB zeta(+)细胞保留/再循环其裂解功能,而IL-13 C(+)CD 4(+)细胞变得无反应性/耗尽。这些体外观察结果与免疫缺陷小鼠中建立的原位CNS神经胶质瘤异种移植物的体内控制增强相关,所述免疫缺陷小鼠由表达共刺激CAR.DiscussionTogether的过继转移的体外扩增的CD 4(+)T细胞介导,这些研究证明了将共刺激与CD 3 zeta信号传导事件整合以充分激活CD 4(+)抗肿瘤效应细胞以在肿瘤微环境中持续发挥功能的重要性。
Background Thc role of co-stimulation in CD4(+) T cell activation by professional APC is well established, while less is known of the role co-stimulation plays when CD4+ T cells interact directly with tumor cells.MethodsThrough generic engineering of human CD4(+) T cells We tested the hypothesis that integration of co-stimulatory signaling domains within a tumor-targeting chimeric Ag receptor (CAR), the IL-13R alpha 2-specific IL-13-zetakine (IL13 zeta), would enhance CD4(+) T cell mediated responses against tumors that fail to express ligands for co-stimulatory receptors.ResultsCompared with CD3 zeta-mediated activation alone, CD4(+) effector T cells expressing the IL13-CD28-41BB zeta CAR exhibited augmented/ sustained MAPK and AKT activity, up-regulated Th1 cytokine production, and enhanced cytolytic potency against tumor targets. Moreover, upon recursive stimulation with tumor the IL13-CD28- 41BB zeta(+) cells retained/recycled their lytic function, whereas IL-13C(+) CD4(+) cells became anergic/exhausted. These in vitro observations correlated with enhanced in vivo control of established orthotopic CNS gliomia xenografts in immunodeficient mice mediated by adoptively transferred ex vivo-expanded CD4(+) T cells expressing the co-stimulatory CAR.DiscussionTogether these studies demonstrate the importance of integrating co-stimulation with CD3 zeta signaling events to activate fully CD4(+) antitumor effector cells for sustained function in the tumor microenvironment.
