Interleukin-10 induces a long-term antigen-specific anergic state in human CD4+ T cells.
TL;DR: Human CD4+ T cells, activated by allogeneic monocytes in a primary mixed lymphocyte reaction in the presence of exogenous interleukin 10, specifically failed to proliferate after restimulation with the same alloantigens, demonstrating that IL-10 induces T cell anergy and therefore may play an important role in the induction and maintenance of antigen-specific T cell tolerance.

Abstract: Human CD4+ T cells, activated by allogeneic monocytes in a primary mixed lymphocyte reaction in the presence of exogenous interleukin (IL) 10, specifically failed to proliferate after restimulation with the same alloantigens. A comparable state of T cell unresponsiveness could be induced by activation of CD4+ T cells by cross-linked anti-CD3 monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) in the presence of exogenous IL-10. The anergic T cells failed to produce IL-2, IL-5, IL-10, interferon gamma, tumor necrosis factor alpha, and granulocyte/macrophage colony-stimulating factor. The IL-10-induced anergic state was long-lasting. T cell anergy could not be reversed after restimulation of the cells with anti-CD3 and anti-CD28 mAbs, although CD3 and CD28 expression was normal. In addition, restimulation of anergized T cells with anti-CD3 mAbs induced normal Ca2+ fluxes and resulted in increased CD3, CD28, and class II major histocompatibility complex expression, indicating that calcineurin-mediated signaling occurs in these anergic cells. However, the expression of the IL-2 receptor alpha chain was not upregulated, which may account for the failure of exogenous IL-2 to reverse the anergic state. Interestingly, anergic T cells and their nonanergic counterparts showed comparable levels of proliferation and cytokine production after activation with phorbol myristate acetate and Ca2+ ionophore, indicating that a direct activation of a protein kinase C-dependent pathway can overcome the tolerizing effect of IL-10. Taken together, these data demonstrate that IL-10 induces T cell anergy and therefore may play an important role in the induction and maintenance of antigen-specific T cell tolerance.

T-helper and regulatory T-cell cytokines in the peripheral blood of patients with active alopecia areata.
M.K. Tembhre,Vinod Sharma +1 more
TL;DR: Alteration in T‐lymphocyte function and cytokines secreted by T‐cell subsets has been proposed in the immunopathogenesis of alopecia areata and the role of T‐helper and regulatory T‐ cell cytokines in the pathogenesis of active AA has not been established.
Respiratory Syncytial Virus Infection of Monocyte-Derived Dendritic Cells Decreases Their Capacity to Activate CD4 T Cells

TL;DR: It is shown that monocyte-derived DC can be productively infected, which results in maturation of the DC judged by the up-regulation of CD80, CD83, CD86, and HLA class II molecules, however, RSV infection of DC caused impaired CD4 T cell activation characterized by a lower T cell proliferation and ablation of cytokine production in activated T cells.
An anti-CD103 antibody-drug conjugate prolongs the survival of pancreatic islet allografts in mice
TL;DR: Targeting CD103 with M290-MC-MMAF induced immunosuppression and prolonged the survival of pancreatic islet allografts in mice, indicating the potential clinical value of M290 -MC- MMAF in therapeutic interventions for allografted rejection.
Immune regulation at the fetal‐maternal interface with focus on decidual macrophages
Judit Svensson‐Arvelund
- 21 Apr 2015
TL;DR: A successful pregnancy requires that the maternal immune system adapts to tolerate the semi-allogeneic fetal-placental unit, and this adaptation mainly occurs locally, i.e. at the fetal-maternal interf ...
Two Lactobacillus strains, isolated from breast milk, differently modulate the immune response

TL;DR: The ability of two different Lactobacillus strains isolated from human breast milk to modulate the immune response was examined and it was found that one strain acts as a ‘spatially aggregating force’ and the other acts as an ‘exciting ’ force.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors showed that CTLA-4-deficient mice rapidly develop lymphoproliferative disease with multiorgan lymphocytic infiltration and tissue destruction, with particularly severe myocarditis and pancreatitis, and die by 3-4 weeks of age.

Interleukin 10 (IL-10) and viral IL-10 strongly reduce antigen-specific human T cell proliferation by diminishing the antigen-presenting capacity of monocytes via downregulation of class II major histocompatibility complex expression.

TL;DR: It is indicated that IL-10 and v-IL-10 can completely prevent antigen-specific T cell proliferation by inhibition of the antigen-presenting capacity of monocytes through downregulation of class II MHC antigens on monocytes.
A cell culture model for T lymphocyte clonal anergy
TL;DR: The T cell enters an unresponsive state known as clonal anergy in which the T cell is incapable of producing its own growth hormone, interleukin-2, on restimulation.

IL-10 inhibits macrophage costimulatory activity by selectively inhibiting the up-regulation of B7 expression.
TL;DR: Direct evidence that the lack of B7 is the relevant limiting defect for IL-10-treated macrophage accessory cell function was obtained from studies in which the costimulatory capacity of IL- 10-treatedmacrophages could be completely restored by the addition of B 7 transfected, but not nontransfected and L cells to the assays.

TL;DR: In vitro, when the B7 molecule on the surface of antigen-presenting cells binds to the T cell surface molecules CD28 and CTLA-4, a costimulatory signal for T cell activation is generated.
