Apoptosis-related fas antigen on memory T cells in aqueous humor of uveitis patients.

Abstract:

:To investigate the role of lymphocytes in the pathogenesis of uveitis, we analyzed the expression of memory markers, CD29 and CD45RO antigens, and apoptosis-related Fas antigen on T lymphocytes in the aqueous humor (AH) and peripheral blood (PB) from patients with uveitis. Using three-color flow cytometry, we assessed the number of T lymphocyte subsets that stained with fluorescence-conjugated anti-CD3, CD4, CD8, CD29, CD45RA, CD45RO, HLA-DR, and Fas monoclonal antibodies in the AH and PB from 19 patients with active uveitis who were diagnosed as having sarcoidosis, Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada disease, HLA-B27+ uveitis, or idiopathic uveitis. Cells from AH and PB were evaluated by light and electron microscopy before and after 6 h of incubation. The majority of lymphocytes in AH but not in PB, were CD3+HLA-DR+ (activated) T cells. The percentage of CD4+ lymphocytes was significantly higher in uveitic AH than in PBL (P < 0.01). While the percentage of CD4+ CD45RA+ (naive) cells within T cells was much lower in uveitic AH than in PB, the percentage of CD4+CD29+ or CD4+CD45RO+ (memory) cells was significantly higher in uveitic AH than in PBL (P < 0.01). Fas antigen was expressed preferentially on memory cells in uveitic AH. Apoptosis of cells in the AH was observed by microscopically following after incubation with no stimulation. Lymphocytes from the AH of patients with uveitis were more activated than those from PB. The majority of T lymphocytes from uveitic AH expressed memory markers and Fas antigen. Results suggest that an increase in the number of Fas+ memory T lymphocytes in AH is involved in the pathogenesis of uveitis.
