Human colonic intra-epithelial lymphocytes (IEL) suppress the proliferation of autologous lamina propria lymphocytes, but not autologous peripheral blood mononuclear cells, when stimulated with phytohaemagglutinin. This suppressor function is mediated by a CD8-dependent soluble factor and is not related to the expression of the gamma delta T cell receptor. These findings may be relevant to the induction of mucosal tolerance. However, there is no defect in suppressor activity of colonic IEL in inflammatory bowel disease.
人结肠上皮内淋巴细胞(IEL)在用植物血凝素刺激时,可抑制自体固有层淋巴细胞的增殖,但不抑制自体外周血单个核细胞的增殖。这种抑制功能由一种依赖CD8的可溶性因子介导,且与γδT细胞受体的表达无关。这些发现可能与黏膜耐受性的诱导有关。然而,炎症性肠病患者结肠IEL的抑制活性并无缺陷。
