Abstract/OtherAbstract:
FoxP3(+) confers suppressive properties and is confined to regulatory T cells (T(reg)) that potently inhibit autoreactive immune responses. In the transplant setting natural CD4(+) T(reg) are critical in controlling alloreactivity and the establishment of tolerance. We now identify an important CD8(+) population of FoxP3(+) T(reg) that convert from CD8(+) conventional donor T cells after allogeneic but not syngeneic bone marrow transplantation (BMT). These CD8(+) T(reg) undergo conversion in the mesenteric lymph nodes under the influence of recipient dendritic cells and TGFβ. Importantly, this population is as important for protection from GVHD as the well-studied natural CD4(+)FoxP3(+) population and are more potent in exerting class-I restricted and antigen-specific suppression in vitro and in vivo. Critically, CD8(+)FoxP3(+) T(reg) are exquisitely sensitive to inhibition by cyclosporine but can be massively and specifically expanded in vivo to prevent GVHD by co-administering Rapamycin and IL-2 antibody complexes. CD8(+)FoxP3(+) T(reg) thus represent a new regulatory population with considerable potential to preferentially subvert MHC class-I restricted T cell responses following BMT.
