We have analyzed the T-cell receptor (TCR) V beta repertoire using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in a cohort of eight patients receiving allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (BMT) from related and unrelated donors at the City of Hope. Results of PCR studies from graft-versus- host disease (GVHD) skin lesions show a bias in the usage of TCR V beta families, whereas examination of peripheral blood (PB) withdrawn at the same time did not reveal a similar phenomenon. In one such family, TCR V beta 2 is predominantly expressed in 7 of 7 biopsy specimens examined. V beta 2 TCR expression from these patients was analyzed more extensively using a combination of individual TCR gene cloning, followed by sequence analysis. We found evidence of oligoclonal expansion of single V beta 2-bearing TCRs in GVHD lesions, and in the PB of some patients after diagnosis of GVHD. In contrast, GVHD-negative biopsy samples showed no evidence for clonotypic TCR amplification. Sequence-specific TCR CDR3 region probes were derived from analysis of the predominant expressed TCR in GVHD lesions, and used to probe Southern blots of amplified V beta 2 TCR mRNA from PB and tissue from BMT recipients and their respective donors. In most cases the probes are highly specific in detecting TCR expression from GVHD lesions alone, although in several instances expression could be detected in PB after GVHD diagnosis. These data provide supporting evidence for the hypothesis that acute GVHD is associated with expansion of T-cell clones expressing antigen-specific TCRs that may contribute to the disease pathology.

To study the repertoire and specificity of T lymphocytes infiltrating skin lesions during graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), we performed an exhaustive molecular and functional analysis of 146 T-cell clones derived from the skin of three patients undergoing an acute GVHD after allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (BMT) from HLA-mismatched related donors. Analysis of T-cell receptor (TCR) rearrangement and TCR chain junctional sequences demonstrated the presence of 11 distinct clones among the 64 derived from patient UPN1, six among the 58 derived from patient UPN2, and seven among the 24 derived from patient UPN3. Three of the 11 T-cell clones from patient UPN1, and all clones from patients UPN2 and UPN3 reacted with mismatched HLA alleles between the bone-marrow donor and recipient. Moreover, both HLA class I (HLA-A2 and -B27) and class II (HLA DP101, DP401, DP1301, DQ8, and DR402) molecules were recognized during this early antihost response. Finally, both TCR alpha and beta chains turned out to be extremely diverse, even within populations of clones derived from the same patient and directed against the same HLA allele. Taken together, these results indicate that any HLA mismatch is potentially targeted during early GVHD, and that the T-cell response at the onset of GVHD is both oligoclonal and highly diversified.
