Attenuation of experimental autoimmune myocarditis by blocking activated T cells through inducible costimulatory molecule pathway.

Abstract:

OBJECTIVE:Inducible costimulator (ICOS) is a member of the CD28 family. Although inflammation is an essential pathological feature of myocarditis, the role of ICOS in myocarditis remains unclear. METHODS AND RESULTS:Lewis rats were immunized on day 0 with purified porcine cardiac myosin to establish experimental autoimmune myocarditis (EAM). Flow cytometry was used to examine expression of ICOS on myocardial infiltrating cells. Anti-ICOS antibody or ICOS-immunoglobulin (ICOSIg) was administered intravenously, and rats were killed on day 14 or 21 to study effects of ICOS/ICOS-ligand (ICOSL) pathway blockade during the antigen priming phase (days 0-14) or immune response phase (days 14-21), respectively. The heart weight to body weight ratio was determined, and histological examination and echocardiogram were performed to evaluate the severity of the disease. Cytokine expression in the heart and T cell proliferation against cardiac myosin were analyzed. Flow cytometry revealed that the majority of infiltrating cells, especially CD4-positive cells, expressed ICOS. Blockade of the ICOS/ICOSL pathway during the immune response phase attenuated EAM development. However, blockade of the ICOS/ICOSL pathway during the antigen priming phase did not attenuate and exacerbate EAM. Blockade of T cell activation through ICOS suppressed expression of cytokines including INF-gamma, IL-4, IL-6, IL-10, IL-1 beta, and TNF-alpha and inhibited T cell proliferation in vitro. CONCLUSIONS:Blockade of T cell activation through ICOS during the immune response phase regulates development of EAM, and therefore, ICOS may be an effective target for treating myocarditis.
