IMMUNOBIOLOGY

CD4+ and CD8+ anergic T cells induced by interleukin-10-treated human dendritic cells display antigen-specific suppressor activity

Kerstin Steinbrink, Edith Graulich, Sebastian Kubsch, Jürgen Knop, and Alexander H. Enk

From the Department of Dermatology, University of Mainz, Germany.

Interleukin-10 (IL-10)-treated dendritic cells (DCs) induce an alloantigen- or peptide-specific anergy in various CD4+ and CD8+ T-cell populations. In the present study, we analyzed whether these anergic T cells are able to regulate antigen-specific immunity. Coculture experiments revealed that alloantigen-specific anergic CD4+ and CD8+ T cells suppressed proliferation of syngeneic T cells in a dose-dependent manner. The same effect was observed when the hemagglutinin-specific CD4+ T-cell clone HA1.7 or tyrosinase-specific CD8+ T cells were cocultured with anergic T cells of the same specificity. Anergic T cells did not induce an antigen-independent bystander inhibition. Suppression was dependent on cell-to-cell contact between anergic and responder T cells, required activation by antigen-loaded DCs, and was not mediated by supernatants of anergic T cells. Furthermore, anergic T cells displayed an increased extracellular and intracellular expression of cytotoxic T-lymphocye antigen (CTLA)-4 molecules, and blocking of the CTLA-4 pathway restored the T-cell proliferation up to 70%, indicating an important role of the CTLA-4 molecule in the suppressor activity of anergic T cells. Taken together, our experiments demonstrate that anergic T cells induced by IL-10-treated DCs are able to suppress activation and function of T cells in an antigen-specific manner. Induction of anergic T cells might be exploited therapeutically for suppression of cellular immune responses in allergic or autoimmune diseases with identified (auto) antigens.
