Peripheral T-cell tolerance associated with prostate cancer is independent from CD4+CD25+ regulatory T cells.
CD4(+)CD25(+)Foxp3(+) regulatory T cells (Treg) are thought to suppress the natural and vaccine-induced immune response against tumor-associated antigens (TAA). Here, we show that Treg accumulate in tumors and tumor-draining lymph nodes of aging transgenic adenocarcinoma of the mouse prostate (TRAMP) male mice, which spontaneously develop prostate cancer. TAA overexpression and disease progress...
متن کاملRapamycin, and not cyclosporin A, preserves the highly suppressive CD27+ subset of human CD4+CD25+ regulatory T cells.
The immunosuppressive drugs rapamycin and cyclosporin A (CsA) are widely used to prevent allograft rejection. Moreover, they were shown to be instrumental in experimental models of tolerance induction. However, it remains to be elucidated whether these drugs have an effect on the CD4+ CD25+ regulatory T-cell (T(REG)) population, which plays an important role in allograft tolerance. Recently, we...
متن کاملCD4(+) CD25(+) regulatory T cell selection.
Accumulating evidence indicates that regulatory T cells play a crucial role in preventing autoimmunity. To examine the processes by which regulatory CD4(+) T cells are produced during immune repertoire formation, we have developed transgenic mice that express the influenza virus hemagglutinin (HA) and coexpress major histocompatibility complex class II-restricted T cell receptors (TCRs) with va...
متن کاملHuman CD4+ CD25+ regulatory T cells suppress NKT cell functions.
CD4+CD25+ regulatory T cells play an important role in peripheral tolerance. These cells have been reported to be capable of suppressing the response of CD4+CD25- T cells in vitro. The depletion of these cells evokes effective immune responses to tumor cells in vivo. In this study, we demonstrate that CD4+CD25+ T cells also suppress all subsets of Valpha24+NKT cells (Valpha24+CD4-CD8- double ne...
متن کاملInhibition of human CD4(+)CD25(+high) regulatory T cell function.
CD4(+)CD25(+high) T cells are potent regulators of autoreactive T cells. However, it is unclear how regulatory CD4(+)CD25(+high) cells discriminate between desirable inflammatory immune responses to microbial Ags and potentially pathologic responses by autoreactive T cells. In this study, an in vitro model was created that allowed differential activation of regulatory CD4(+)CD25(+high) and resp...
