Abstract

OX40 (CD134) is a member of the tumor necrosis factor (TNF) receptor family that is transiently expressed on T cells after T-cell receptor (TCR) ligation. Both naive and activated CD4+CD25+ regulatory T cells (T reg's) express OX40 but its functional role has not been determined. Since glucocorticoid-induced tumor necrosis factor receptor (GITR), a related TNF receptor family member, influences T reg function, we tested whether OX40 might have similar effect. Triggering either GITR or OX40 on T reg's using agonist antibodies inhibited their capacity to suppress and restored effector T-cell proliferation, interleukin-2 (IL-2) gene transcription and cytokine production. OX40 abrogation of T reg suppression was confirmed in vivo in a model of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). In a fully allogeneic C57BL/6>BALB/c bone marrow transplantation, GVHD was lethal unless T reg's were cotransferred with the bone marrow and effector T cells. Strikingly, T reg suppression of GVHD was abrogated either by intraperitoneal injection of anti-OX40 or anti-GITR monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) immediately after transfer, or by in vitro pretreatment of T reg's with the same mAbs before transfer. Cumulatively, the results suggest that in addition to controlling memory T-cell numbers, OX40 directly controls T reg–mediated suppression.

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.
