Age-Associated Increase of Low-Avidity Cytomegalovirus-Specific CD8+ T Cells That Re-Express CD45RA
Open accessAbstract
The mechanisms regulating memory CD8+ T cell function and homeostasis during aging are unclear. CD8+ effector memory T cells that re-express CD45RA increase considerably in older humans and both aging and persistent CMV infection are independent factors in this process. We used MHC class I tetrameric complexes that were mutated in the CD8 binding domain to identify CMV-specific CD8+ T cells with high Ag-binding avidity. In individuals who were HLA-A*0201, CD8+ T cells that expressed CD45RA and were specific for the pp65 protein (NLVPMVATV epitope) had lower avidity than those that expressed CD45RO and demonstrated decreased cytokine secretion and cytolytic potential after specific activation. Furthermore, low avidity NLVPMVATV-specific CD8+ T cells were significantly increased in older individuals. The stimulation of blood leukocytes with CMV lysate induced high levels of IFN-α that in turn induced IL-15 production. Moreover, the addition of IL-15 to CD45RA−CD45RO+ CMV-specific CD8+ T cells induced CD45RA expression while Ag activated cells remained CD45RO+. This raises the possibility that non-specific cytokine–driven accumulation of CMV-specific CD8+CD45RA+ T cells with lower Ag-binding avidity may exacerbate the effects of viral reactivation on skewing the T cell repertoire in CMV-infected individuals during aging.

CMV-specific CD8+ effector memory cells reexpressing CD45RA typically have low avidity and appear to expand mainly in response to antigen-nonspecific cytokine stimulation.
“A recent study exploring the avidity of CMV-specific CD8+ T cells has demonstrated that CD8+ effector memory cells reexpressing CD45RA typically have low avidity and appear to expand mostly in response to antigen-nonspecific cytokine stimulation [32].”
From T-cell aging in rheumatoid arthritis (2014) · cites this paper as [32]
The narrowing of the TCR repertoire may be associated with an age-associated increase in the proportion of low-avidity virus-specific CD8+ T cells, as shown in CMV infection.
“This may be associated with an age-associated increase in the proportion of low-avidity virus-specific CD8+ T cells, as shown in the case of CMV infection for instance [89].”

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.
