Description

In-vitro preparation method and application of natural follicular regulatory T cells
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of immunology, in particular to an in-vitro preparation method and application of natural follicular regulatory T cells.
Background
Follicular regulatory T cells (Follicular Regulatory T Cell, tfr) are regulatory T cells of a specific subset of populations that are located in the follicular germinal center. Tfr cells exert an immunomodulatory effect by inhibiting the assistance of follicular helper T cells (Follicular HELPER T CELL, tfh) on B cells, as well as acting directly on B cells. Follicular regulatory T cells co-express surface molecules of follicular helper T cells and regulatory T cells (Regulatory T Cell, treg), such as PD-1, CXCR5, ICOS, CD25, and CD4. Meanwhile, tfr cells express BCL6, the major transcription factor of follicular helper T cells, and FOXP3, the major transcription factor of regulatory T cells.
In autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, primary sjogren's syndrome, the number of follicular regulatory T cells and the ratio of regulatory T cells to helper T cells decrease, and this decrease in ratio is positively correlated with disease activity. Currently, studies of follicular regulatory T cells have focused mainly on the cell regulatory mechanisms. Because of the lack of internationally accepted in vitro induced differentiation methods, in vitro studies of this T cell subset have relied primarily on noble instruments such as flow sorters for sorting. In addition, the content of such cells in the body is very small, and thus it is difficult to obtain a large number of follicular regulatory T cells. The development of a method for obtaining the follicular regulatory T cells by in vitro induced differentiation has the advantages of cost and has important significance for the research and understanding of the cells.
One of the methods known at present is the co-induction of the cytokine IL-2, TGF-beta and baicalin, a Chinese herbal component, by using T cell activation and amplification magnetic beads (refer to China patent CN 107177547A), and the other is the method of obtaining by adding cytokines to anti-TCR-beta antibodies and anti-CD 3 antibodies (PMID: 32711255). The former method enriches T cells with activated magnetic beads and induces differentiation by baicalin, however baicalin is not a self-component of the human body, is expensive and difficult to obtain in large quantities, and baicalin induced differentiation is difficult to simulate the process of follicular regulatory T differentiation in vivo. The latter method is difficult to obtain Tfr cells with high purity (only about 20 percent), and has limited the wide application in Tfr cell in-vitro mechanism research, cell therapy and the like.
The origin of follicular regulatory T cells may be either regulatory T cell precursors or conventional T cells. Current studies gradually deny the notion that follicular regulatory T cells originate only from regulatory T cell precursors. Follicular regulatory T cells differentiated from regulatory T cells are referred to as natural follicular regulatory T cells (nTfr), while follicular regulatory T cells differentiated from conventional T cells are referred to as inducible follicular regulatory T cells (iTfr). Inducible follicular regulatory T cells express CD38, whereas natural follicular regulatory T cells do not express CD 38. Wherein nTfr cells are useful for adoptive transfer for the treatment of autoimmune diseases such as lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis, and the like, and immunosuppression in organ transplants. In the prior art, a great deal of research is focused on the induction and differentiation of Tfr cells, and the lack of an in-vitro induction and differentiation method of nTfr cells limits the wide application of in-vitro mechanism research of nTfr cells, cell treatment and the like.

Preferably, the cells obtained by the culture in the first step contain regulatory T cells, i.e., CD4 +CD25+CD127low/- cells.
Further preferably, the specific steps of the first step are that the initial CD4 + T lymphocyte is resuspended in RPMI 1640 medium containing 10% FBS, the resuspended cells are added into a 96-well plate which is pre-incubated with anti-CD 3 antibody and anti-CD 28 antibody, and cytokines IL-2 and TGF-beta are added into the medium and cultured to obtain the antigen.

Preferably, the autoimmune diseases include, but are not limited to, lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis, and sjogren's syndrome.
The beneficial effects are that:
The method effectively induces the initial CD4 + T cells to differentiate into CD4 +FOXP3+CXCR5+PD-1+CD38- nTfr cells in vitro by selecting the induced differentiation costimulatory molecule antibody, the cytokine antibody and the cytokine, is expected to solve the difficult problem of sorting by a flow sorter in the current research of follicular regulatory T cells, and the nTfr cells prepared by the method can be used for mechanism research and also can be used for nTfr cells adoptive transfer to treat autoimmune diseases, such as lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis and the like, and immunosuppression in organ transplantation. The method has the specific advantages that:
1) The surface molecule of the follicular regulatory T cells obtained by the method does not express CD38, namely nTfr cells, and CD38 is used for identifying nTfr cells and iTfr cells. The present inventors have found that by appropriate ratios of cytokines, cytokine antibodies and co-stimulatory molecule antibodies, primary CD4 + T cells can be induced to differentiate in vitro and a large number of nTfr cells (> 80% nTfr cells) can be obtained.

3) The invention adopts the cell factor naturally existing in the body and the antibody of the corresponding target spot, can better simulate the induced differentiation of nTfr cells in the body, and can be used for researching the in vitro related functional mechanism of nTfr cells.
4) Tfr cells have the function of inhibiting the helper effect of Tfh cells on B cells and directly inhibiting B cells. However, tfr cells are reduced in autoimmune diseases, which is positively correlated with disease activity. Treg cells have certain curative effects in maintaining immunosuppression, autoimmune disease treatment and the like in organ transplantation. Tfr cells, as a specific subset of regulatory T cells, regulate the immune response of germinal centers. The invention provides an in vitro preparation method of nTfr cells, which can obtain a large number of nTfr cells (> 80%). The method has wide application prospect, and can be used for treating autoimmune diseases such as lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis, sjogren syndrome and the like, and for immunosuppression in organ transplantation treatment such as kidney transplantation, liver transplantation and the like.
