CD28 costimulation regulates FOXP3 in a RelA/NF‐κB‐dependent mechanism

Abstract: The molecular mechanisms whereby CD28 alone or associated with TCR can regulate FOXP3 expression are not understood, although the importance of CD28 as a pivotal regulator of CD4 CD25À T cells stimulated through TCR and CD28 significantly affected FOXP3 expression, confirming that also the transcriptional activation of FOXP3 gene by TCR in the presence of CD28-costimulatory signals is RelA-dependent. In conclusion, these data suggest a new mechanism by which FOXP3 is activated and supports the critical role o… Show more

“…We also saw a significant up-regulation of CD38 mRNA expression after the graft was subjected to 8 h CI (3.5 6 0.8 ng versus 5.5 6 1.6 ng, P < 0.05). However, regulatory T cells which suppress allogeneic immune response also express CD25 on the cellular surface, the up-regulation of CD28 may be associated with the increased regulatory T cells [28,29]. In order to exclude the possibility that the up-regulation of CD25 and CD28 was caused by increased number of regulatory T cells, we assessed the mRNA expression of Foxp3.…”

“…An alternative explanation for a role for c-Rel has suggested c-Rel is involved in chromatin remodeling of the IL-2 promoter (Rao et al, 2003). c-Rel does appear to contribute to the expression of Foxp3 and the development of Treg cells in the thymus (Isomura et al, 2009; Long et al, 2009; Ruan et al, 2009) but another NF-κB family member RelA may be more important for induced Treg cell production in the periphery (Soligo et al, 2011). A further post-translational protein modification that may contribute to CD28-mediated T cell activation is O-GlcNAc glycosylation.…”

“…69,95,96 More recent studies have shown how the cooperative expression of c-Rel and JunB significantly enhances Foxp3 promoter activity, 97 and the role of RelA has also been observed to be important for iTreg cell differentiation in a CD28 signal-dependent manner. 98 …”
