CD4 T cells selected by antigen under Th2 polarizing conditions favor an elongated TCR alpha chain complementarity-determining region 3.
The affinity of the MHC/peptide/TCR interaction is thought to be one factor determining the differentiation of CD4+ T cells into Th1 or Th2 phenotypes. To study whether CD4+ cells generated under conditions favoring Th1 or Th2 responses select structurally different TCRs, Th1 and Th2 clones and lines were generated from nonobese diabetic and nonobese diabetic H2-E transgenic mice against the pe...
متن کاملThymic and postthymic regulation of diabetogenic CD8 T cell development in TCR transgenic nonobese diabetic (NOD) mice.
Natural development of diabetes in nonobese diabetic (NOD) mice requires both CD4 and CD8 T cells. Transgenic NOD mice carrying alphabeta TCR genes from a class I MHC (Kd)-restricted, pancreatic beta cell Ag-specific T cell clone develop diabetes significantly faster than nontransgenic NOD mice. In these TCR transgenic mice, a large fraction of T cells express both transgene derived and endogen...
متن کاملRegulation of diabetes development by regulatory T cells in pancreatic islet antigen-specific TCR transgenic nonobese diabetic mice.
Nonobese diabetic (NOD) mice carrying a transgenic TCR from an islet Ag-specific CD4 T cell clone, BDC2.5, do not develop diabetes. In contrast, the same transgenic NOD mice on the SCID background develop diabetes within 4 wk after birth. Using a newly developed mAb specific for the BDC2.5 TCR, we examined the interaction between diabetogenic T cells and regulatory T cells in NOD.BDC transgenic...
متن کاملPancreatic expression of interleukin-4 abrogates insulitis and autoimmune diabetes in nonobese diabetic (NOD) mice
Diabetes in nonobese diabetic (NOD) mice is a T cell-dependent autoimmune disease. The destructive activities of autoreactive T cells have been shown to be tightly regulated by effector molecules. In particular, T helper (Th) 1 cytokines have been linked to diabetes pathogenesis, whereas Th2 cytokines and the cells that release them have been postulated to be protective from disease. To test th...
متن کاملCD4+ T Cells from Glutamic Acid Decarboxylase (GAD)65-specific T Cell Receptor Transgenic Mice Are Not Diabetogenic and Can Delay Diabetes Transfer
Glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD)65 is an early and important antigen in both human diabetes mellitus and the nonobese diabetic (NOD) mouse. However, the exact role of GAD65-specific T cells in diabetes pathogenesis is unclear. T cell responses to GAD65 occur early in diabetes pathogenesis, yet only one GAD65-specific T cell clone of many identified can transfer diabetes. We have generated tran...
