Abstract The ability of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) to produce and respond to interleukin-2 (IL-2) was evaluated in 50 recipients of HLA- identical bone marrow (BM) depleted of mature T cells by soybean agglutination and E rosetting (SBA-E-BM). In contrast to our previous findings in recipients of unfractionated marrow, during weeks 3 to 7 post-SBA-E-BM transplantation (BMT), PBMC from the majority of patients spontaneously released IL-2 into the culture medium. This IL-2 was not produced by Leu-11+ natural killer cells, which were found to be predominant in the circulation at this time, but by T11+, T3+, Ia antigen-bearing T cells. The IL-2 production could be enhanced by coculture with host PBMC frozen before transplant but not by stimulation with mitogenic amounts of OKT3 antibody, thus suggesting an in vivo activation of donor T cells or their precursors by host tissue. Spontaneous IL-2 production was inversely proportional to the number of circulating peripheral blood lymphocytes and ceased after 7 to 8 weeks post-SBA-E-BMT in most of the patients. In patients whose cells had ceased to produce IL-2 spontaneously or never produced this cytokine, neither coculture with host cells nor stimulation with OKT3 antibody thereafter induced IL-2 release through the first year posttransplant. Proliferative responses to exogenous IL-2 after stimulation with OKT3 antibody remained abnormal for up to 6 months post-SBA-E-BMT, unlike the responses of PBMC from recipients of conventional BM, which responded normally by 1 month post-BMT. However, the upregulation of IL- 2 receptor expression by exogenous IL-2 was found to be comparable to normal controls when tested as early as 3 weeks post-SBA-E-BMT. Therefore, the immunologic recovery of proliferative responses to IL-2 and the appearance of cells regulating in vivo activation of T cells appear to be more delayed in patients receiving T cell-depleted BMT. Similar to patients receiving conventional BMT, however, the ability to produce IL-2 after mitogenic stimulation remains depressed for up to 1 year after transplantation.

Fibroblast Like Synoviocytes

The production and oxidation mechanism of reactive oxygen species (ROS) are out of balance in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). However, the correlation between ROS and T cell subsets in RA remains unclear. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from patients with RA (n = 40) and healthy controls (n = 10) were isolated from whole blood samples. Synovial tissues (n = 3) and synovial fluid (n = 10) were obtained from patients with RA. The repartition of T cell subsets and expression of ROS and cytokines were examined according to RA severity. Fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLSs) from patients with RA were stimulated with PBMCs and the expression of inflammation-related molecules were measured by RT-PCR and cytokine array. Regulatory T cells from patients with moderate (5.1 > DAS28 ≥ 3.2) RA showed the highest expression of mitochondrial ROS among the groups based on disease severity. Although ROS levels steadily increased with RA severity, there was a slight decline in severe RA (DAS28 ≥ 5.1) compared with moderate RA. The expression of inflammatory cytokines in RA FLSs were significantly inhibited when FLSs were co-cultured with PBMCs treated with ROS inhibitor. These findings provide a novel approach to suppress inflammatory response of FLSs through ROS regulation in PBMCs.

Spontaneous Proliferation

ABSTRACT Evidence indicates that human T-cell lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) infection leads to chronic immunosuppression and a greater susceptibility to infectious diseases. Spontaneous in vitro proliferation of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) is an important immunological feature of HTLV-1-infected individuals. However, the association between spontaneous proliferation and immunosuppression is not clear. In this study, we evaluated the cellular immune responses of PBMC from 58 asymptomatic HTLV-1-infected individuals with PBMC showing or not showing spontaneous proliferation. Individuals with PBMC that spontaneously proliferated had increased proportions of CD4 T cells expressing CD45RO and dramatically reduced responses to recall antigens. In addition, frequencies of positive responses to recall antigens were also decreased in HTLV-infected individuals without spontaneous proliferation of PBMC. There was a polyclonal expansion of multiple T-cell receptor Vβ families of CD4+ T lymphocytes in patients with spontaneous proliferation. We observed that HTLV-1 induced an immunosuppression characterized by a decrease in the stimulation index to a recall antigen, even in individuals who did not present spontaneous proliferation. On the other hand, only patients with PBMC presenting spontaneous proliferation showed polyclonal activation and increased proportion of CD4 T cells expressing CD45RO.
