Blockade of CD27/CD70 pathway to reduce the generation of memory T cells and markedly prolong the survival of heart allografts in presensitized mice
چکیده انگلیسی

BackgroundAlloreactive memory T cells are a major obstacle to transplantation acceptance due to their capacity for accelerated rejection.MethodsC57BL/6 mice that had rejected BALB/c skin grafts 4 weeks earlier were used as recipients. The recipient mice were treated with anti-CD154/LFA-1 with or without anti-CD70 during the primary skin transplantation and anti-CD154/LFA-1 or not during the secondary transplantation of BALB/c heart. We evaluated the impact of combinations of antibody-mediated blockade on the generation of memory T cells and graft survival after fully MHC-mismatched transplantations.ResultsOne month after the primary skin transplantation, the proportions of CD4+ memory T cells/CD4+ T cells and CD8+memory T cells/CD8+ T cells in the anti-CD154/LFA-1 combination group were 47.32 ± 4.28% and 23.18 ± 2.77%, respectively. In the group that included anti-CD70 treatment, the proportions were reduced to 34.10 ± 2.71% and 12.19 ± 3.52% (P < 0.05 when comparing the proportion of memory T cells between the two groups). The addition of anti-CD70 to the treatment regimen prolonged the mean survival time following secondary heart transplantation from 10 days to more than 90 days (P < 0.001). Furthermore, allogenic proliferation of recipient splenic T cells and graft-infiltrating lymphocytes were significantly decreased. Meanwhile, the proportion of regulatory T cells was increased to 9.46 ± 1.48% on day 100 post-transplantation (P < 0.05).ConclusionsThe addition of anti-CD70 to the anti-CD154/LFA-1 combination given during the primary transplantation reduced the generation of memory T cells. This therapy regimen provided a potential means to alleviate the accelerated rejection mediated by memory T cells during secondary heart transplantation and markedly prolong the survival of heart allografts.
