Induction of porcine regulatory cells by mycophenolic Acid-treated dendritic cells.

Abstract:

:Tolerance induction in murine allogeneic transplantation is relatively easy, often by induction of regulatory T cells (Treg). Unfortunately, the implementation of these models in clinical situations has not yielded reliable protocols of tolerance induction in humans. Our project sought to create a preclinical model of tolerance induction in large animals. Our current efforts seek to induce and characterize porcine Treg, obtaining dendritic cells (DC) able to preferentially stimulate them. DCs were differentiated from blood monocytes with porcine recombinant interleukin-4 (IL-4) and granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) for 6 days. These DCs were then stimulated by human CD40 ligand-transfected L cells with or without mycophenolic acid (MPA) for 48 hours. We analyzed surface marker expression, cytokine synthesis, and ability to stimulate allogeneic peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC). The porcine lymphocytes underwent 4 rounds of 1-week stimulation with allogeneic DC treated or not with MPA. At the end of this coculture we analyzed their capacity to suppress allogeneic PBMC proliferation induced by mature DC. Our results showed that porcine DCs pretreated with MPA display a low expression of B7 costimulatory molecules, produce low levels of IL-12, and induce weak proliferation of allogeneic lymphocytes. Moreover, after 4 rounds of stimulation with MPA-treated DCs, PBMCs were able to inhibit an alloreactive response. These preliminary results suggested induction of a regulatory T-cell population that we are currently seeking to characterize.
