In vitro–expanded human CD4+CD25+ T-regulatory cells can markedly inhibit allogeneic dendritic cell–stimulated MLR cultures

Abstract

CD4+CD25+ T-regulatory (Treg) cells have been shown to critically regulate self- and allograft tolerance in several model systems. Studies of human Treg cells have been restricted by the small number present in peripheral blood and their naturally hypoproliferative state. To better characterize Treg suppressor cell function, we determined methods for the isolation and expansion of these cells. Stringent magnetic microbead-based purification was required for potent suppressor cell line generation. Culture stimulation with cell-sized Dynabeads coated with anti-CD3 and anti-CD28 monoclonal antibodies, CD4+ feeder cells, and interleukin 2, provided for marked expansion in cell number (100-fold), with retention and enhancement of suppressor function. The potent Treg cell lines suppressed proliferation in dendritic cell-driven allo-mixed lymphocyte reaction (MLR) cultures by more than 90%. The Treg-derived suppressor cells functioned early in allo-MLR because expression of activation antigens and accumulation of cytokines was nearly completely prevented. Importantly, cultured Treg cells also suppressed activated and matured dendritic cell-driven responses. These results demonstrate that short-term suppressor cell lines can be generated, and they can express a very potent suppressive activity. This approach will enable more detailed biologic studies of Treg cells and facilitate the evaluation of cultured Treg cells as a novel form of immunosuppressive therapy. (Blood. 2004;104:453-461)

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.
