CD1d-restricted peripheral T cell lymphoma in mice and humans
نویسندگان
چکیده
Peripheral T cell lymphomas (PTCLs) are a heterogeneous entity of neoplasms with poor prognosis, lack of effective therapies, and a largely unknown pathophysiology. Identifying the mechanism of lymphomagenesis and cell-of-origin from which PTCLs arise is crucial for the development of efficient treatment strategies. In addition to the well-described thymic lymphomas, we found that p53-deficient mice also developed mature PTCLs that did not originate from conventional T cells but from CD1d-restricted NKT cells. PTCLs showed phenotypic features of activated NKT cells, such as PD-1 up-regulation and loss of NK1.1 expression. Injections of heat-killed Streptococcus pneumonia, known to express glycolipid antigens activating NKT cells, increased the incidence of these PTCLs, whereas Escherichia coli injection did not. Gene expression profile analyses indicated a significant down-regulation of genes in the TCR signaling pathway in PTCL, a common feature of chronically activated T cells. Targeting TCR signaling pathway in lymphoma cells, either with cyclosporine A or anti-CD1d blocking antibody, prolonged mice survival. Importantly, we identified human CD1d-restricted lymphoma cells within Vδ1 TCR-expressing PTCL. These results define a new subtype of PTCL and pave the way for the development of blocking anti-CD1d antibody for therapeutic purposes in humans.

Blockade of invariant TCR-CD1d interaction specifically inhibits antibody production against blood group A carbohydrates.
Previously, we detected B cells expressing receptors for blood group A carbohydrates in the CD11b(+)CD5(+) B-1a subpopulation in mice, similar to that in blood group O or B in humans. In the present study, we demonstrate that CD1d-restricted natural killer T (NKT) cells are required to produce anti-A antibodies (Abs), probably through collaboration with B-1a cells. After immunization of wild-ty...
متن کاملPeripheral T-cell Lymphoma of the Uvula: A Rare Entity
Abstract Introduction: Extra-nodal exposition of T-cell non-hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) is extremely rare, and is frequently observed in patients with immune system dysfunction. Peripheral T-cell lymphoma does not express CD56 is rare. Malignant lymphoma of the uvula is exceedingly unusual. The current study reported a case of peripheral T-cell lymphoma of the uvula in an immunecompetent patient. ...

متن کاملPrevention of Autoimmunity by Targeting a Distinct, Noninvariant CD1d-reactive T Cell Population Reactive to Sulfatide
Class I and class II MHC-restricted T cells specific for proteins present in myelin have been shown to be involved in autoimmunity in the central nervous system (CNS). It is not yet known whether CD1d-restricted T cells reactive to myelin-derived lipids are present in the CNS and might be targeted to influence the course of autoimmune demyelination. Using specific glycolipid-CD1d tetramers and ...

Overwhelming infection remains the leading cause of death from serious burn injury despite recent advances in the care of burn patients and a better understanding of immune and inflammatory consequences of injury. In this study, we report a critical requirement for CD1d-restricted NKT cells and CD1d expression by APCs in the immune dysfunction that occurs early after burn injury. Using a well-e...
