Induction, control, and plasticity of Treg cells: The immune regulatory network revised?

Abstract: The revival of the old and, for several years, abandoned era of suppressor T cells came in the 1990s with two works that resurrected the idea of CD8 + suppressor T cells [1,2]. The revival was further strengthened when a subset of CD4 + T cells constitutively expressing high levels of the IL-2R α-chain (CD25) and possessing suppressor activity was identified [3]. These cells, termed regulatory T (Treg) cells, were able to prevent disease in various models of autoimmunity, and to suppress transplant rejection a… Show more

“…IFN promoted Th1 polarization at the expense of peripheral Treg induction, a data indicating that, during inflammation, IFN may subvert microenvironmental networks normally promoting tolerance maintenance, as in the gut. In addition, the finding that type-I IFNs are also potent inducers of PD-L1 on a variety of cells including Treg is consistent with the evidence showing that the PD-1 is overexpressed by activated Treg and, upon PD-L1 interaction, negatively regulates the expansion and suppressive function of activated Treg by controlling STAT-5 phosphorylation, at the site of inflammation in chronic HCV infection [15,26]. Such a mechanism (contra-suppression?)…”

“…Natural Treg cells are completely demethylated within the foxp3‐TSDR , whereas murine induced Treg cells may either exhibit a methylated foxp3‐TSDR or differentiate into fully stable Treg cells with a demethylated foxp3‐TSDR under particular conditions, e.g. by antigen‐specific signals through tolerogenic DEC205 vaccination . Hence, this methylation is a valid marker characterizing stable committed Treg cells regardless of the Treg cell type (natural or induced) …”

“…PD‐1, considered as an inhibitory receptor delivering negative signals to conventional T cells (Tconvs), sustains development, maintenance, and suppressive function of peripherally induced Tregs upon engagement with its own ligand (PD‐L1) . On the other side, PD‐1 tempers expansion and function of already established Tregs . Contrary to PD‐1, OX40 is considered as a costimulatory molecule conveying prosurvival signals to Tconvs .…”
