CD4+CD25+ T regulatory cells in renal transplantation

Jason Cheung, Beata Zahorowska, Michael Suranyi, Jeffrey K. W. Wong, Jason Diep, Stephen T. T. Spicer, Nirupama D. D. Verma, Suzanne J. Hodgkinson, Bruce M. M. Hall

Summary: The immune response to an allograft can activate lymphocytes that cause rejection. The activation of T regulatory cells can reduce allograft rejection and induce immune tolerance. Activated T regulatory cells can be distinguished by various markers. A more detailed characterization of these cells may help reduce non-specific immunosuppression.

Human CD36hi monocytes induce Foxp3+ CD25+ T cells with regulatory functions from CD4 and CD8 subsets

Jessica G. Lee, Kathleen E. Jaeger, Yoichi Seki, Yi Wei Lim, Christina Cunha, Aleksandra Vuchkovska, Alexander J. Nelson, Anya Nikolai, Dan Kim, Michael Nishimura, Katherine L. Knight, Paula White, Makio Iwashima

Summary: The study reveals that a subset of CD14(+) monocytes can generate regulatory Foxp3(+) T-bet(+) T cells from umbilical cord blood, which suppress T-cell proliferation and ameliorate graft-versus-host disease. Additionally, adult peripheral blood monocytes are capable of inducing Foxp3(+) T cells, but their induction is inhibited by lymphoid cells from adult peripheral blood in neonates. This suggests a novel immunoregulatory role of monocytes in generating regulatory T cells with implications for both neonates and adults.

CD4+CD25+FOXP3+ regulatory T cells: a potential armor to shield transplanted allografts in the war against ischemia reperfusion injury

Shareni Jeyamogan, Joseph R. Leventhal, James M. Mathew, Zheng Jenny Zhang

Summary: Solid organ transplantation (SOT) and vascularized composite allotransplantation (VCA) are the gold-standard treatments for end-stage organ failure and complex tissue defects. However, ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI) is a major factor that can negatively impact transplant outcomes. CD4+CD25+FOXP3+ regulatory T cells (Tregs) have immunomodulatory potential and can prevent and mitigate IRI. Increasing the number of Tregs and targeted delivery can improve the outcomes of SOT and VCA.

The FOXP3 full-length isoform controls the lineage-stability of CD4+FOXP3+ regulatory T cells

Christina Seitz, Anne-Laure Joly, Fang Fang, Katie Frith, Paul Gray, John Andersson

Summary: The transcription factor FOXP3 is crucial for the development and function of CD4(+)FOXP3(+) regulatory T (Treg) cells. Alterations in the expression of FOXP3 isoforms are associated with inflammatory disease progression. This study investigates the effects of a specific FOXP3 mutation on Treg cell subsets. The findings suggest that the full-length FOXP3 isoform is important for maintaining Treg cell lineage stability but not essential for Treg cell activation.

Lung injury induces a polarized immune response by self-antigen-specific CD4+Foxp3+regulatory T cells

Daniel S. Shin, Sneha Ratnapriya, Creel Ng Cashin, Lucy F. Kuhn, Rod A. Rahimi, Robert M. Anthony, James J. Moon

Summary: Self-antigen-specific T cells are regulated through tolerance mechanisms, but tissue injury can disrupt this regulation and trigger autoimmunity. Using mouse models of lung injury, we found that acute injury leads to the expansion of CD4+ regulatory T cells (Tregs) that specifically recognize self-antigen. Conventional CD4+ T cells with the same self-antigen specificity remained unresponsive even after Treg ablation. Therefore, the self-antigen-specific CD4+ T cell repertoire plays a regulatory role in limiting tissue damage and autoimmunity during acute injury.

Toward a general model of CD4+T cell subset specification and memory cell formation

Kevin C. Osum, Marc K. Jenkins

Summary: In the field of CD4+ T cells, there has been a lack of progress compared to the transformative discoveries made in memory CD8+ T cell biology in recent decades. This perspective focuses on the specification of CD4+ helper T (Th) cell subsets and the formation of memory cells. The authors argue that the abundance of Th effector and memory cell subsets and the emphasis on their differences have hindered the development of a general model for CD4+ memory T cell formation applicable to all immune responses. They propose a bifurcation model based on an IL-2 signal-dependent switch to explain the balanced production of diverse Th memory cells involved in cell-mediated or humoral immunity.

Intestinal epithelial HDAC3 and MHC class II coordinate microbiota-specific immunity

Emily M. Eshleman, Tzu-Yu Shao, Vivienne Woo, Taylor Rice, Laura Engleman, Bailey J. Didriksen, Jordan Whitt, David B. Haslam, Sing Sing Way, Theresa Alenghat

Summary: Abnormal immune responses can cause inflammatory bowel disease and other chronic inflammatory conditions. This study found that mice lacking the expression of histone deacetylase 3 (HDAC3) in the intestinal epithelium had increased accumulation of commensal-specific CD4+ T cells, suggesting that HDAC3 may control local microbiota-specific immunity. Further experiments showed that HDAC3 was necessary for regulating epithelial MHC class II (MHCII) and dampening the accumulation of commensal-specific Th17 cells, protecting against microbiota-triggered inflammation. These findings highlight the important role of HDAC3 in regulating the balance of tissue-specific CD4+ T cell subsets and controlling inflammation.
