Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a prototypical autoimmune disease characterized by multiorgan inflammation induced by autoantibodies. Early growth response gene 2 (Egr2), a transcription factor essential for T-cell anergy induction, controls systemic autoimmunity in mice and humans. We have previously identified a subpopulation of CD4+ regulatory T cells, CD4+CD25−LAG3+ cells, that characteristically express both Egr2 and LAG3 and control mice model of lupus via TGF-β3 production. However, due to the mild phenotype of lymphocyte-specific Egr2-deficient mice, the presence of an additional regulator has been speculated. Here, we show that Egr2 and Egr3 expressed in T cells cooperatively prevent humoral immune responses by supporting TGF-β3 secretion. T cell-specific Egr2/Egr3 double-deficient (Egr2/3DKO) mice spontaneously developed an early onset lupus-like disease that was more severe than in T cell-specific Egr2-deficient mice. In accordance with the observation that CD4+CD25−LAG3+ cells from Egr2/3DKO mice completely lost the capacity to produce TGF-β3, the excessive germinal center reaction in Egr2/3DKO mice was suppressed by the adoptive transfer of WT CD4+CD25−LAG3+ cells or treatment with a TGF-β3–expressing vector. Intriguingly, latent TGF-β binding protein (Ltbp)3 expression maintained by Egr2 and Egr3 was required for TGF-β3 production from CD4+CD25−LAG3+ cells. Because Egr2 and Egr3 did not demonstrate cell intrinsic suppression of the development of follicular helper T cells, Egr2- and Egr3-dependent TGF-β3 production by CD4+CD25−LAG3+ cells is critical for controlling excessive B-cell responses. The unique attributes of Egr2/Egr3 in T cells may provide an opportunity for developing novel therapeutics for autoantibody-mediated diseases including SLE.

And Function

Cellular metabolism has key roles in T cells differentiation and function. CD4+ T helper-1 (Th1), Th2, and Th17 subsets are highly glycolytic while regulatory T cells (Tregs) use glucose during expansion but rely on fatty acid oxidation for function. Upon uptake, glucose can enter pentose phosphate pathway (PPP) or be used in glycolysis. Here, we showed that blocking 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase (6PGD) in the oxidative PPP resulted in substantial reduction of Tregs suppressive function and shifts toward Th1, Th2, and Th17 phenotypes which led to the development of fetal inflammatory disorder in mice model. These in turn improved anti-tumor responses and worsened the outcomes of colitis model. Metabolically, 6PGD blocked Tregs showed improved glycolysis and enhanced non-oxidative PPP to support nucleotide biosynthesis. These results uncover critical role of 6PGD in modulating Tregs plasticity and function, which qualifies it as a novel metabolic checkpoint for immunotherapy applications.

Abstract We have reported a NOD/SCID/γcnull (NOG) mice model, which enable efficient engraftment of human hematopoietic stem cells and their multi-lineage differentiation including T cells. Using this model, we investigated whether various subpopulations of T cells were generated in this unique murine microenvironment. Freshly collected cord blood was depleted of phagocytes with Silica ® followed by CD34 positive selection using auto MACS ®. The purity of CD34 positive cells always exceeded 98%. These cells were transplanted into irradiated NOG mice intravenously. About 3 months after the transplantation, human T cells in peripheral blood, bone marrow and spleen were analyzed by flow cytometry. As we have reported previously, more than half of the human cells seen in the spleen were human CD3+ T cells and as many as 30% of them expressed CD4 and CD25 without activation markers such as CD69. To examine if these CD4+ CD25+ cells have regulatory activity, CD4+ CD25− cells were stimulated with anti-human CD3 antibody along with irradiated autologous antigen presenting cells in the presence of limiting dose of CD4+ CD25+ cells. The inhibition of proliferation by CD4+ CD25+ cells was analyzed by 3H-thymidine uptake. CD4+ CD25+ cells successfully suppressed the CD4+ CD25− T cell proliferation and RT-PCR analysis revealed the expression of Foxp3, a marker for regulatory T cells, specifically in the CD4+ CD25+ cell population. These results suggest that regulatory T cells can develop from hematopoietic stem cells in our NOG mice model. As human T cells appear first in the thymus of NOG mice, these regulatory T cells are considered to arise in the murine thymus. Our model provides a new and versatile tool to investigate development and function of human regulatory T cells, which are often difficult to study because of complicated history of infection or genetic differences among individuals.

Sepsis is a fatal infectious disease accompanied by multiple organ failure. Immune dysfunction and inflammatory response play an important role in the progression of the disease. Tripterygium glycoside (TG) has immune suppression and anti-inflammatory effects. Here, we investigated the effects of TG on cecal ligation and puncture (CLP)-induced sepsis. Septic mice model was induced by cecal ligation and puncture(CLP), after administration of TG, specimens are collected at designated time points. Histopathology changes of lung tissues and Kidney tissues were observed under light microscope, magnetic microbeads were used to isolate splenic CD4+CD25+ regulatory T cells (Tregs), and phenotypes were then analyzed by flow cytometry. ELISA method was employed to detect the concentrations of plasma TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-10. Nuclear p-NF-κB and Cytoplasmic IkB-a was detected by western blot. TG administration significantly alleviated lung and kidney inflammatory injury and improved the survival of septic mice. Furthermore, the suppressive function of regulatory T cells was enhanced and plasma expression of IL-10 was increased following TG treatment. The NF-B signaling pathway and secretion of plasma TNF-α and IL-6 was notably inhibited in septic mice treated with TG. TG exerts protective effects through improving regulatory T cells and attenuating pro-inflammatory cytokines in septic mice.
