CD 4(+)CD 25(+)调节性T细胞(T-reg)已被证明对小鼠自身和同种异体移植耐受性具有重要的调节作用。人T-reg细胞的研究受到外周血中存在的低数量和难以纯化的阻碍。我们发现,脐带血是一个优越的上级来源的T-reg-细胞分离和细胞系生成相比,成人血液。脐带血CD 4(+)CD 25(+)细胞易于纯化,并产生持续表现出有效抑制活性的细胞系,对同种异体混合淋巴细胞反应(MLR)的抑制率超过95%(30名供体中有29名)。培养的T-reg细胞阻断了MLR中的细胞因子积累,对趋化因子产生的抑制作用不太强。这些细胞系均匀地表达CD 25、CD 62 L、CCR 7、CD 27和细胞内细胞毒性T淋巴细胞抗原-4(CTLA 4)。FoxP 3蛋白特异性表达,而mRNA无特异性表达。在用抗CD 3/CD 28珠再刺激后,培养的T-reg细胞产生最少的细胞因子(白细胞介素-2 [IL-2]、干扰素-γ [IFN-γ]和IL-10),并优先表达肿瘤生长因子-β(TGF-β)潜伏相关蛋白。然而,细胞因子的生产,恢复到正常水平的佛波醇肉豆蔻酸酯乙酸酯(PMA)/离子霉素的再刺激。脐带血来源的培养抑制细胞功能主要独立于IL-10和TGF-β。这些结果表明,脐带血含有大量的T-reg前体细胞,在培养物活化后能够发挥有效的抑制功能。库存脐带血标本可作为免疫治疗的Treg细胞的现成来源。(C)2005年,美国血液学会。
CD4(+)CD25(+) T regulatory (T-reg) cells have been shown to critically regulate self and allograft tolerance in mice. Studies of human T-reg cells have been hindered by low numbers present in peripheral blood and difficult purification. We found that cord blood was a superior source for T-reg-cell isolation and cell line generation compared with adult blood. Cord blood CD4(+)CD25(+) cells were readily purified and generated cell lines that consistently exhibited potent suppressor activity, with more than 95% suppression of allogeneic mixed lymphocyte reactions (MLRs) (29 of 30 donors). Cultured T-reg cells blocked cytokine accumulation in MLRs, with a less robust inhibition of chemokine production. These cell lines uniformly expressed CD25, CD62L, CCR7, CD27, and intracellular cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen-4 (CTLA4). FoxP3 protein, but not mRNA, was specifically expressed. Upon restimulation with anti-CD3/CD28 beads, the cultured T-reg cells produced minimal cytokines (interleukin-2 [IL-2], interferon-gamma [IFN-gamma], and IL-10) and preferentially expressed tumor growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) latency associated protein. Cytokine production, however, was restored to normal levels by restimulation with phorbol myristate acetate (PMA)/ionomycin. Cord blood-derived cultured suppressor cell function was predominantly independent of IL-10 and TGF-beta. These results demonstrate cord blood contains a significant number of T-reg precursor cells capable of potent suppressor function after culture activation. Banked cord blood specimens may serve as a readily available source of Treg cells for immunotherapy. (C) 2005 by The American Society of Hematology.
