Down-Regulation of T Cell Function by Heat Shock-Induced Excretory Factor of Leishmania Major
Background: Despite demonstration of molecular and biochemical changes induced by heat shock on Leishmania, the immunological importance of such changes has not been elucidated. Objective: Studying the effect of two excretory factors prepared under heat shock and ambient temperature from Leishmania major on Balb/c splenocytes function. Methods: The parasites were cultured at 25°C and then sub...
متن کاملTLR2 stimulation regulates the balance between regulatory T cell and Th17 function: a novel mechanism of reduced regulatory T cell function in multiple sclerosis.
CD4(+)CD25(hi) FOXP3(+) regulatory T cells (Tregs) maintain tolerance to self-Ags. Their defective function is involved in the pathogenesis of multiple sclerosis (MS), an inflammatory demyelinating disease of the CNS. However, the mechanisms of such defective function are poorly understood. Recently, we reported that stimulation of TLR2, which is preferentially expressed by human Tregs, reduces...
متن کاملThe plasticity of regulatory T cell function.
Regulatory T cells (T(regs)) can suppress a wide variety of cell types, in diverse organ sites and inflammatory conditions. Whereas T(regs) possess multiple suppressive mechanisms, the number required for maximal function is unclear. Furthermore, whether any interrelationship or cross-regulatory mechanisms exist to orchestrate and control their utilization is unknown. In this study, we assessed...
متن کاملNotch1 signaling and regulatory T cell function.
Previous studies have shown that the Notch1 and TGF-beta signaling pathways are mutually re-enforcing. Given recent evidence that regulatory T cell (Treg) effector function is mediated by TGF-beta signaling, we investigated whether Notch1 signaling also participated in Treg effector function. Initial studies showed that Notch1 ligands, particularly Jagged1, are present on Tregs and that, indeed...
متن کاملMast cells down-regulate CD4+CD25+ T regulatory cell suppressor function via histamine H1 receptor interaction.
Mast cells promote both innate and acquired immune responses, but little is known about the effect of mast cells on T regulatory (T(reg)) cell function. In this study, we show for the first time that the capacity of murine CD4(+)CD25(+) T(reg) cells to suppress in vitro proliferation by CD4(+)CD25(-) T responder (T(resp)) cells in response to anti-CD3/anti-CD28 mAb-coated beads was reduced in t...
