Abstract

Objective: Clonal populations of CD4+,CD28− T cells accumulating in rheumatoid arthritis functionally resemble end‐differentiated, nondividing, short‐lived effector memory cells that reside in peripheral tissues. We undertook this study to examine the tissue niche for CD4+,CD28− T cells and the signals regulating their survival and tissue homing patterns. Methods: Chemokine receptor expression on CD4+,CD28− T cell clones and peripheral blood lymphocytes was assessed by multicolor cytometry. In vitro chemotaxis and transendothelial migration were examined in a Transwell system. In vivo tissue‐homing patterns were established by adoptively transferring fluorescence‐labeled T cell clones into SCID mice engrafted either with rheumatoid synovium or with human lymph nodes. Results: CD4+,CD28− T cell clones adoptively transferred into human tissue–SCID mouse chimeras infiltrated rheumatoid synovium but preferentially homed to lymph nodes. Such T cells coexpressed the chemokine receptors CCR7, CCR5, and CXCR4 and migrated in response to both inflammatory chemokines (CCL5) and homing chemokines (CXCL12). T cell receptor crosslinking abrogated chemotactic responsiveness. In contrast, interleukin‐12 stimulation induced the up‐regulation of CCR5 and a shift in the in vivo homing pattern away from the lymph nodes toward the inflamed synovium. Conclusion: CD4+,CD28− T cells resemble both short‐lived effector memory cells and long‐lived central memory cells, and they find a niche both in inflamed synovium and in lymph nodes. Nonspecific cytokine stimulation, not antigen recognition, triggers the transition from the lymph node to the synovium. By maintaining CCR7 expression, these end‐differentiated T cells can home to lymphoid organs, enhance their survival, support clonal expansion, and perpetuate autoreactivity.

  • CD28− T cells produce high levels of IFN-γ, have cytotoxic functions, and accumulate in inflammatory lesions.

    “CD28− T cells are high producers for interferon-γ (IFN-γ), display cytotoxic functions and accumulate in inflammatory lesions [21–26].”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
