The routine use of bone marrow transplantation is limited by the
occurrence of acute and chronic graft-versus-host disease (GVHD).
Current approaches to decreasing the occurrence of GVHD after
allogeneic transplantation use T-cell depletion, use immunosuppressive agents, or block costimulatory molecule function. The role of proteins
in the recruitment of alloreactive lymphocytes has not been well
characterized. Chemokines are a large family of proteins that mediate
recruitment of mononuclear cells in vitro and in vivo. To investigate
the role of T-cell production of the chemokine macrophage inhibitory
protein-1 (MIP-1 ) in the occurrence of GVHD, splenocytes either
from wild-type or from MIP-1 / mice were administered to class
I (B6.C-H2bm1) and class II disparate mice
(B6-C-H2bm12). The incidence and severity of GVHD was
markedly reduced in bm1 mice receiving splenocytes from MIP-1 /
mice as compared with mice receiving wild-type splenocytes. Bm1 mice
receiving MIP-1 / splenocytes had significantly less weight
loss and markedly reduced inflammatory responses in the lung and liver
than mice receiving C57BL/6 splenocytes. Bm1 mice receiving
MIP-1 / splenocytes had a markedly decreased production of
antichromatin autoantibodies and impaired generation of bm1-specific T
lymphocytes versus wild-type mice. However, MIP-1 / splenocytes
easily induced GVHD when administered to bm12 mice. This data show that
blockade of chemokine production or function may provide a new approach
to the prevention or treatment of GVHD but that chemokines that recruit
both CD4+ and CD8+ lymphocytes may need to
be targeted.
