Abstract

Background— PD-L1 and PD-L2 are ligands for the inhibitory receptor programmed death-1 (PD-1), which is an important regulator of immune responses. PD-L1 is induced on cardiac endothelial cells under inflammatory conditions, but little is known about its role in regulating immune injury in the heart. Methods and Results— Cytotoxic T-lymphocyte–mediated myocarditis was induced in mice, and the influence of PD-L1 signaling was studied with PD-L1/L2–deficient mice and blocking antibodies. During cytotoxic T-lymphocyte–induced myocarditis, the upregulation of PD-L1 on cardiac endothelia was dependent on T-cell–derived interferon-γ, and blocking of interferon-γ signaling worsened disease. Genetic deletion of both PD-1 ligands [ PD-L1/2 (−/−) ], as well as treatment with PD-L1 blocking antibody, transformed transient myocarditis to lethal disease, in association with widespread polymorphonuclear leukocyte–rich microabscesses but without change in cytotoxic T-lymphocyte recruitment. PD-L1/2 (−/−) mice reconstituted with bone marrow from wild-type mice remained susceptible to severe disease, which demonstrates that PD-L1 on non–bone marrow–derived cells confers the protective effect. Finally, depletion of polymorphonuclear leukocytes reversed the enhanced susceptibility to lethal myocarditis attributable to PD-L1 deficiency. Conclusions— Myocardial PD-L1, mainly localized on endothelium, is critical for control of immune-mediated cardiac injury and polymorphonuclear leukocyte inflammation.

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.
