T regulatory lymphocytes in type 1 diabetes: Impaired CD25 expression and IL-2 induced STAT5 phosphorylation in pediatric patients

Abstract: T regulatory cells (Tregs) are essential for maintaining tolerance and preventing autoimmune diseases, such as type 1 diabetes (T1D). In our study, we investigated CD25 + FoxP3 + Tregs and thymic FoxP3 + Helios + Tregs in large cohorts of children with T1D at onset and with long-term T1D, and further in their relatives and healthy controls. We observed significantly decreased numbers of CD25 + FoxP3 + Tregs, but not FoxP3 + Helios + Tregs, in long-term patients compared with the control group and T1D onset. Fu… Show more

“…2A), with lower IL-2 responders in the naïve Treg subset associating with lower CD25 expression levels. These data support a strong role for CD25 expression level in each individual in determining Treg IL-2 responses in T1D, as shown by others [19, 27, 28] and in children with T1D [25]. By comparison, IL-2 responsiveness in memory Treg was not as well correlated with memory Teff within the same subject (Fig.…”

“…Decreased memory Teff IL-2 responses are consistent with our previous findings using smaller cohorts [15, 16]. Other studies either did not compare Treg and Teff responses in the same subjects [21, 25], or used assays optimized for detecting IL-2 response in Treg driven by limiting amounts of IL-2 [19], or smaller cohorts size [20]. …”

“…Mouse studies show that a hallmark of diabetes onset is the apoptosis of pancreatic islet T reg cells, alongside decreased CD25 and Bcl‐2 expression, suggesting local IL‐2 deprivation . In some T1D cohorts, patients have decreased IL‐2 production , and diminished CD25 expression within FoxP3 + T reg cells . Long et al .…”
