NK cell regulation of CD4 T cell-mediated graft-versus-host disease.
CD3-negative NK cells are granular lymphocytes capable of producing inflammatory cytokines and killing malignant, infected, or stressed cells. We have recently observed a new role for NK cells in the control of the proliferation of CD4 T cells under persistent antigenic stimulation. Monoclonal anti-male CD4 T cells transferred into Rag2-/- male recipients did not expand or were rapidly eliminat...
متن کاملHsp90 inhibition ameliorates CD4+ T cell‐mediated acute Graft versus Host disease in mice
INTRODUCTION For many patients with leukemia only allogeneic bone marrow transplantion provides a chance of cure. Co-transplanted mature donor T cells mediate the desired Graft versus Tumor (GvT) effect required to destroy residual leukemic cells. The donor T cells very often, however, also attack healthy tissue of the patient inducing acute Graft versus Host Disease (aGvHD)-a potentially life-...
متن کاملEffector memory CD4+ T cells mediate graft-versus-leukemia without inducing graft-versus-host disease.
Much of the efficacy of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (alloSCT) in curing hematologic malignancies is due to a graft-versus-leukemia (GVL) effect mediated by donor T cells that recognize recipient alloantigens on leukemic cells. Donor T cells are also important for reconstituting immunity in the recipient. Unfortunately, donor T cells can attack nonmalignant host tissues an...
متن کاملCD30/CD30 ligand (CD153) interaction regulates CD4+ T cell-mediated graft-versus-host disease.
CD30, a TNFR family member, is expressed on activated CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells and B cells and is a marker of Hodgkin's lymphoma; its ligand, CD30L (CD153) is expressed by activated CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells, B cells, and macrophages. Signaling via CD30 can lead to proliferation or cell death. CD30-deficient (-/-) mice have impaired thymic negative selection and increased autoreactivity. Altho...
متن کاملPhotodepletion differentially affects CD4+ Tregs versus CD4+ effector T cells from patients with chronic graft-versus-host disease.
Even the most potent immunosuppressive drugs often fail to control graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), the most frequent and deleterious posttransplantation complication. We previously reported that photodepletion using dibromorhodamine (TH9402) eliminates T cells from healthy donors activated against major histocompatibility complex-incompatible cells and spares resting T cells. In the present s...
