To evaluate the influence of natural regulatory CD8+ T cells on macrophages we investigated in vitro production of cytokines, reactive oxygen intermediates (ROIs) and expression of CD80 surface costimulatory molecules by macrophages (MF) of wild type (WT) B10PL and syngeneic knock-out (KO) strains, TCRalpha-/-, beta2m-/- and CD1d-/- mice. MF of TCR alpha-/- (CD4- and CD8-) and beta2m-/- (CD8-) animals produced higher levels ofTNF-a, IL-6, IL-12 and ROIs and showed increased expression of CD80 costimulatory molecules in comparison to MF of WT or CD1d-/- (NKT-) mice. When MF of these strains were conjugated with TNP hapten and injected i.v. into WT mice to test either induction of contact sensitivity (CS) or tolerance, only TNP-MF of TCRalpha-/- and beta2m-/- animals induced a significant CS reaction, while cells of WT and CD1d-/- strains were tolerogenic. MF of the tested strains can be classified functionally as resembling either proinflammatory (TCRalpha-/- and beta2m-/-mice) or immunosuppressive (WT and CD1d-/-) phenotypes. We suggest the presence of an in vivo regulatory loop in which innate CD8+ Treg cells control the transition between MF phenotypes and thus adjust the magnitude of the inflammatory response to strictly local requirements.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007694 Killer Cells, Natural Bone marrow-derived lymphocytes that possess cytotoxic properties, classically directed against transformed and virus-infected cells. Unlike T CELLS; and B CELLS; NK CELLS are not antigen specific. The cytotoxicity of natural killer cells is determined by the collective signaling of an array of inhibitory and stimulatory CELL SURFACE RECEPTORS. A subset of T-LYMPHOCYTES referred to as NATURAL KILLER T CELLS shares some of the properties of this cell type.

D008297 Male Males
D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA. Animal,Metazoa,Animalia
D015496 CD4-Positive T-Lymphocytes A critical subpopulation of T-lymphocytes involved in the induction of most immunological functions. The HIV virus has selective tropism for the T4 cell which expresses the CD4 phenotypic marker, a receptor for HIV. In fact, the key element in the profound immunosuppression seen in HIV infection is the depletion of this subset of T-lymphocytes.

D017353 Gene Deletion A genetic rearrangement through loss of segments of DNA or RNA, bringing sequences which are normally separated into close proximity. This deletion may be detected using cytogenetic techniques and can also be inferred from the phenotype, indicating a deletion at one specific locus. Deletion, Gene,Deletions, Gene,Gene Deletions
D017382 Reactive Oxygen Species Molecules or ions formed by the incomplete one-electron reduction of oxygen. These reactive oxygen intermediates include SINGLET OXYGEN; SUPEROXIDES; PEROXIDES; HYDROXYL RADICAL; and HYPOCHLOROUS ACID. They contribute to the microbicidal activity of PHAGOCYTES, regulation of SIGNAL TRANSDUCTION and GENE EXPRESSION, and the oxidative damage to NUCLEIC ACIDS; PROTEINS; and LIPIDS.
