CD4 T cell differentiation into multiple T helper (Th) cell lineages is critical for optimal adaptive immune responses. This report identifies an intrinsic mechanism by which programmed death-1 receptor (PD-1) signaling imparted regulatory phenotype to Foxp3 Th1 cells (denoted as TbetiTreg cells) and inducible regulatory T (iTreg) cells. TbetiTreg cells prevented inflammation in murine models of experimental colitis and experimental graft versus host disease (GvHD). Programmed death ligand-1 (PDL-1) binding to PD-1 imparted regulatory function to TbetiTreg cells and iTreg cells by specifically downregulating endo-lysosomal protease asparaginyl endopeptidase (AEP). AEP regulated Foxp3 stability and blocking AEP imparted regulatory function in TbetiTreg cells. Also, Aep iTreg cells significantly inhibited GvHD and maintained Foxp3 expression. PD-1-mediated Foxp3 maintenance in Tbet Th1 cells occurred both in tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) and during chronic viral infection. Collectively, this report has identified an intrinsic function for PD-1 in maintaining Foxp3 through proteolytic pathway.
CD4 T 细胞向多种辅助性 T 细胞(Th)谱系的分化对于最佳适应性免疫反应至关重要。本报告确定了程序性死亡受体 1(PD-1)信号赋予 Foxp3 Th1 细胞(表示为 TbetiTreg 细胞)和诱导性调节性 T(iTreg)细胞调节表型的内在机制。TbetiTreg 细胞可预防实验性结肠炎和实验性移植物抗宿主病(GvHD)模型中的炎症。程序性死亡配体 1(PDL-1)与 PD-1 的结合通过特异性地下调内体溶酶体蛋白酶天冬酰胺内肽酶(AEP)赋予 TbetiTreg 细胞和 iTreg 细胞调节功能。AEP 调节 Foxp3 的稳定性,阻断 AEP 可赋予 TbetiTreg 细胞调节功能。此外,Aep iTreg 细胞可显著抑制 GvHD 并维持 Foxp3 的表达。PD-1 在肿瘤浸润淋巴细胞(TIL)和慢性病毒感染过程中均介导 Tbet Th1 细胞中 Foxp3 的维持。总之,本报告确定了 PD-1 通过蛋白水解途径维持 Foxp3 的内在功能。
