调节T细胞
调节T细胞(regulatory T cell,Treg):是一群具有负调节机体免疫反应的淋巴细胞,通常起着维持自身耐受和避免免疫反应过度损伤机体的重要作用,但也参与肿瘤细胞逃避机体免疫监视和慢性感染。
70年代曾命名为抑制T细胞(suppressor T cell),因缺乏明确的表面标志,研究长期处于尴尬和停顿的境地;直到90年代研究出现转机并成为目前研究热点,但现多称为调节T细胞(regulatory T cell)。
調節性T細胞最重要的分子標記是一種轉錄因子Foxp3,在所有調節性T細胞中均可發現有多量表現。
亚群
编辑调节T细胞是免疫系统的重要组成成分,可抑制其他免疫细胞的免疫反應。这是免疫系统之中重要的“自检”组分,可防止产生过激的免疫反應。调节T细胞有多种形式,但被了解的最透彻的是表达CD4、CD25及FOXP3调节T细胞(CD4+CD25+调节T细胞)。调节T细胞与辅助T细胞不同[1]。另一类调节T细胞亚群是Treg17细胞[2]。调节T细胞参与到成功清除入侵生物后关闭免疫反應之中,同时也防止产生自身免疫反應[3]。
CD4+ Foxp3+ CD25(high) regulatory T cells have been called "naturally occurring" regulatory T cells[4] to distinguish them from "suppressor" T cell populations that are generated in vitro. Additional regulatory T cell populations include Tr1, Th3, CD8+CD28-, and Qa-1 restricted T cells. The contribution of these populations to self-tolerance and immune homeostasis is less well defined. Foxp3 can be used as a good marker for mouse CD4+CD25+ T cells, although recent studies have also shown evidence for Foxp3 expression in CD4+CD25- T cells. In humans, Foxp3 is also expressed by recently activated conventional T-cells and thus does not specifically identify human Tregs.[5]
调节/抑制T细胞有很多种,可分為自然存在與誘導產生兩類:
自然存在:
- CD4+ CD25+T细胞:在维持机体对自身抗原的耐受中扮演重要角色,是目前研究最广泛深入的一种调节/抑制T细胞。
誘導產生:
