Activated T Lymphocytes are Essential Drivers of Pathological Remodeling in Ischemic Heart Failure
Open accessAbstract
Background—: Inappropriately sustained inflammation is a hallmark of chronic ischemic heart failure (HF); however, the pathophysiological role of T lymphocytes is unclear. Methods and Results—: Permanent coronary ligation was performed in adult C57BL/6 mice. When compared with sham-operated mice, mice with HF (8 weeks after ligation) exhibited the following features: (1) significant ( P <0.05) expansion of circulating CD3 + CD8 + cytotoxic and CD3 + CD4 + helper (Th) T lymphocytes, together with increased Th1, Th2, Th17, and regulatory T-cell (Treg) CD4 + subsets; (2) significant expansion of CD8 + and CD4 + T cells in failing myocardium, with increased Th1, Th2, Th17, and Treg CD4 + subsets, marked reduction of the Th1/Th2 ratio, augmentation of the Th17/Treg ratio, and upregulation of Th2 cytokines; and (3) significantly increased Th1, Th2, Th17 cells, and Tregs, in the spleen and mediastinal lymph nodes, with expansion of splenic antigen-experienced effector and memory CD4 + T cells. Antibody-mediated CD4 + T-cell depletion in HF mice (starting 4 weeks after ligation) reduced cardiac infiltration of CD4 + T cells and prevented progressive left ventricular dilatation and hypertrophy, whereas adoptive transfer of splenic CD4 + T cells (and, to a lesser extent, cardiac CD3 + T cells) from donor mice with HF induced long-term left ventricular dysfunction, fibrosis, and hypertrophy in naive recipient mice. Conclusions—: CD4 + T lymphocytes are globally expanded and activated in chronic ischemic HF, with Th2 (versus Th1) and Th17 (versus Treg) predominance in failing hearts, and with expansion of memory T cells in the spleen. Cardiac and splenic T cells in HF are primed to induce cardiac injury and remodeling, and retain this memory on adoptive transfer.

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.
