The role of B cells in the development of CD4 regulatory T cells has been emphasized recently. Our previous studies have demonstrated that the antigen-presenting splenic B cells converted naïve CD4CD25 T cells into CD4CD25Foxp3 T cells without additional cytokines or chemicals with regulatory activity and that referred to as Treg-of-B cells. The present study further showed that Treg-of-B cells increased the IL-10-producing population, and the expression of c-Maf, inducible T-cell co-stimulator (ICOS) as well as cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein 4 (CTLA4) after repeated stimulation of B cells in a cell-cell contact-dependent manner. Long-term cultured Treg-of-B cells exerted IL-10 and CTLA4-mediated antigen-specific suppressive activity; moreover, the single antigen-specific Treg-of-B cells inhibited in a non-antigen-specific fashion. In conclusion, these results suggest that repeated stimulation of B cells induced IL-10-producing CD4Foxp3 regulatory T cells in a contact-dependent manner and these Treg-of-B cells possess IL-10 and CTLA4-dependent suppressive function.
B 细胞在 CD4 调节性 T 细胞(Treg)的发育中的作用最近受到了重视。我们之前的研究表明,抗原呈递的脾 B 细胞在没有额外的具有调节活性的细胞因子或化学物质的情况下,将初始 CD4+CD25-T 细胞转化为 CD4+CD25+Foxp3+Treg,我们称之为 B 细胞来源的 Treg(Treg-of-B)。本研究进一步表明,Treg-of-B 细胞通过细胞间接触依赖性方式,在反复刺激 B 细胞后增加了 IL-10 产生细胞群的数量,以及 c-Maf、诱导性 T 细胞共刺激分子(ICOS)和细胞毒性 T 淋巴细胞相关蛋白 4(CTLA4)的表达。长期培养的 Treg-of-B 细胞发挥了 IL-10 和 CTLA4 介导的抗原特异性抑制活性;此外,单一抗原特异性 Treg-of-B 细胞以非抗原特异性方式抑制。总之,这些结果表明,B 细胞的反复刺激以接触依赖性方式诱导了产生 IL-10 的 CD4+Foxp3+调节性 T 细胞,并且这些 Treg-of-B 细胞具有 IL-10 和 CTLA4 依赖性抑制功能。
