During immunosuppression, cytomegalovirus (CMV) can
reactivate and cause serious clinical problems. Normally, abundant
virus replication is suppressed by immune effector mechanisms. To study the interaction between CD8+ T cells and persisting
viruses, frequencies and phenotypes of CMV-specific CD8+ T
cells were determined in healthy individuals and compared to those in
renal transplant recipients. In healthy donors, function of circulating
virus-specific CD8+ T cells, as measured by peptide-induced
interferon (IFN- ) production, but not the number of
virus-specific T cells enumerated by binding of specific tetrameric
peptide/HLA complexes, correlated with the number of CMV-specific
IFN- -secreting CD4+ helper T cells. Circulating
CMV- specific CD8+ T cells did not express CCR7 and may
therefore not be able to recirculate through peripheral lymph nodes.
Based on coexpression of CD27 and CD45R0 most CMV-specific T cells in
healthy donors appeared to be memory-type cells. Remarkably,
frequencies of CMV-specific CD8+ T cells were significantly
higher in immunosuppressed individuals than in healthy donors. In
these patients CMV-specific cells predominantly had an effector
phenotype, that is,
CD45R0+CD27 CCR7 or
CD45RA+CD27 CCR7 and contained
both granzyme B and perforin. Our data show that in response to
immunosuppressive medication quantitative and qualitative changes occur
in the CD8+ T-cell compartment. These adaptations may be
instrumental to maintain CMV latency.
