The presence of CD4 T lymphocytes has been described for several teleost species, while many of the main T cell subsets have not been characterized at a cellular level, because of a lack of suitable tools for their identification, e.g., monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) against cell markers. We previously described the tissue distribution and immune response related to CD3ε and CD4-1 T cells in olive flounder (Paralichthys oliveceus) in response to a viral infection. In the present study, we successfully produce an mAb against CD4-2 T lymphocytes from olive flounder and confirmed its specificity using immuno-blotting, immunofluorescence staining, flow cytometry analysis and reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Using these mAbs, we were able to demonstrate that the CD3ε T cell populations contain both types of CD4+ cells, with the majority of the CD4 T cell subpopulations being CD4-1+/CD4-2+ cells, determined using two-color flow cytometry analysis. We also examined the functional activity of the CD4-1 and CD4-2 cells in vivo in response to a viral infection, with the numbers of both types of CD4 T cells increasing significantly during the virus infection. Collectively, these findings suggest that the CD4 T lymphocytes in olive flounder are equivalent to the helper T cells in mammals in terms of their properties and function, and it is the CD4-2 T lymphocytes rather than the CD4-1 T cells that play an important role in the Th1 immune response against viral infections in olive flounder.

Treatment of advanced melanoma with combined immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy is complicated in up to 50% of cases by immune-related adverse events (irAE) that commonly include hepatitis, colitis and skin reactions. We previously reported that pre-therapy expansion of cytomegalovirus (CMV)-reactive CD4+ effector memory T cells (TEM) predicts ICI-related hepatitis in a subset of patients with Stage IV melanoma given αPD-1 and αCTLA-4. Here, we develop and validate a 10-color flow cytometry panel for reliably quantifying CD4+ TEM cells and other biomarkers of irAE risk in peripheral blood samples. Compared to previous methods, our new panel performs equally well in measuring CD4+ TEM cells (agreement = 98%) and is superior in resolving CD4+ CD197+ CD45RA- central memory T cells (TCM) from CD4+ CD197+ CD45RA+ naive T cells (Tnaive). It also enables us to precisely quantify CD14+ monocytes (CV = 6.6%). Our new “monocyte and T cell” (MoT) assay predicts immune-related hepatitis with a positive predictive value (PPV) of 83% and negative predictive value (NPV) of 80%. Our essential improvements open the possibility of sharing our predictive methods with other clinical centers. Furthermore, condensing measurements of monocyte and memory T cell subsets into a single assay simplifies our workflows and facilitates computational analyses.

ABSTRACT Strongyloides stercoralis infection is associated with diminished antigen-specific Th1- and Th17-associated responses and enhanced Th2-associated responses. Interleukin-27 (IL-27) and IL-37 are two known anti-inflammatory cytokines that are highly expressed in S. stercoralis infection. We therefore wanted to examine the role of IL-27 and IL-37 in regulating CD4+ and CD8+ T cell responses in S. stercoralis infection. To this end, we examined the frequency of Th1/Tc1, Th2/Tc2, Th9/Tc9, Th17/Tc17, and Th22/Tc22 cells in 15 S. stercoralis-infected individuals and 10 uninfected individuals stimulated with parasite antigen following IL-27 or IL-37 neutralization. We also examined the production of prototypical type 1, type 2, type 9, type 17, and type 22 cytokines in the whole-blood supernatants. Our data reveal that IL-27 or IL-37 neutralization resulted in significantly enhanced frequencies of Th1/Tc1, Th2/Tc2, Th17/Tc17, Th9, and Th22 cells with parasite antigen stimulation. There was no induction of any T cell response in uninfected individuals following parasite antigen stimulation and IL-27 or IL-37 neutralization. Moreover, we also observed increased production of gamma interferon (IFN-γ), IL-5, IL-9, IL-17, and IL-22 and decreased production of IL-10 following IL-27 and IL-37 neutralization and parasite antigen stimulation in whole-blood cultures. Thus, we demonstrate that IL-27 and IL-37 limit the induction of particular T cell subsets along with cytokine responses in S. stercoralis infections, which suggest the importance of IL-27 and IL-37 in immune modulation in a chronic helminth infection.
