IMMUNOBIOLOGY

CD4+CD25+ T-cell development is regulated by at least 2 distinct mechanisms

From the Department of Internal Medicine II, the Core Research for Evolutional Science and Technology Project, and the Department of Molecular Immunology, Graduate School of Medicine, Chiba University, Japan; and the Department of Immunology, Tokyo Metropolitan Institute of Medical Science, Tokyo Metropolitan Organization for Medical Research, Japan.

It has recently been shown that CD4+CD25+ T cells are immunoregulatory T cells that prevent CD4+ T-cell-mediated organ-specific autoimmune diseases. In this study, the regulatory mechanism of CD4+CD25+ T-cell development were investigated using T-cell receptor (TCR) transgenic mice. It was found that CD4+CD25+ T cells preferentially expressed the endogenous TCRalpha chain in DO10+ TCR transgenic mice compared with CD4+CD25- T cells. Moreover, it was found that CD4+CD25+ thymocytes were severely decreased in DO10+ TCR-alpha -/- mice in positively selecting and negatively selecting backgrounds, whereas CD4+CD25- thymocytes efficiently developed by transgenic TCR in DO10+ TCR-alpha -/- mice in positively selecting backgrounds, indicating that the appropriate affinity of TCR to major histocompatibility complex (MHC) for the development of CD4+CD25+ thymocytes is different from that of CD4+CD25- thymocytes and that a certain TCR-MHC affinity is required for the development of CD4+CD25+ thymocytes. Finally, it was found that, in contrast to thymus, CD4+CD25+ T cells were readily detected in spleen of DO10+ TCR-alpha -/- mice in positively selecting backgrounds and that splenic CD4+CD25+ T cells, but not CD4+CD25+ thymocytes, were significantly decreased in B-cell-deficient mice, suggesting that B cells may control the peripheral pool of CD4+CD25+ T cells. Together, these results indicate that the development of CD4+CD25+ T cells in thymus and the homeostasis of CD4+CD25+ T cells in periphery are regulated by distinct mechanisms.
