A reduced capacity to produce this cytokine in the elderly, as demonstrated by our findings of significant decreases in IFN-gamma production in vitro on stimulation with bacterial products (LPS) or viral antigens (influenza vaccine), might therefore contribute to disease susceptibility.

Using tetramer technology and IFN-gamma ELISPOT assays, we found that the commonly-observed clonal expansions of CD8+ T-cells in the elderly were for the most part poorly-functional CMV- and EBV-specific cells, expressing little CD28.

PHF11 is a transcriptional co-activator of the Th1 effector cytokine genes, interleukin-2 (IL2) and interferon-γ (IFNG), co-operating with nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB).

|
Consistent with its presence in the nucleus, PHF11 was recruited to the IFNG promoter and over-expression of PHF11 increased the binding of NF-κB to the IFNG promoter and IFNG gene transcription.
|

|
Over-expression of PHF11 did not increase IL2 gene transcription, suggesting some specificity in promoter recognition.
|

|
In contrast, small-interfering RNA knock-down of PHF11 decreased transcription of both IFNG and IL2 and led to decreased CD28 cell-surface expression and reduced NF-κB nuclear import and DNA binding.

|
Knock-down of PHF11 also decreased cell viability and was accompanied by reduced expression of GIMAP4 and 5 genes required for T-cell differentiation, viability and homeostasis.

Rapamycin-sensitive signals control TCR/CD28-driven Ifng, Il4 and Foxp3 transcription and promoter region methylation.

Here, we report that both mTOR complex 1 and mTOR complex 2 are readily activated following TCR/CD28 engagement and are critical for early expression of Ifng, Il4 and Foxp3, and for effector T cell differentiation in the absence of polarizing cytokines.

|
While inhibition of mTOR complex 1 and cell division were evident at low doses of RAPA, inhibition of mTOR complex 2, Ifng, Il4 and Foxp3 expression, and T-cell polarization required higher doses and more prolonged treatments.

|
We found that while T-bet and GATA3 were readily induced following TCR/CD28 engagement, administration of RAPA delayed their expression, and interfered with the loss of DNA methylation within Ifng and Il4 promoter regions.

Peripheral and site-specific CD4(+) CD28(null) T cells from rheumatoid arthritis patients show distinct characteristics.

|
Proinflammatory CD4(+) CD28(null) T cells are frequently found in the circulation of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), but are less common in the rheumatic joint.

|
In the present study, we sought to identify functional differences between CD4(+) CD28(null) T cells from blood and synovial fluid in comparison with conventional CD28-expressing CD4(+) T cells.
|

|
Forty-four patients with RA, displaying a distinct CD4(+) CD28(null) T cell population in blood, were recruited for this study; the methylation status of the IFNG locus was examined in isolated T cell subsets, and intracellular cytokine production (IFN-γ, TNF, IL-17) and chemokine receptor expression (CXCR3, CCR6 and CCR7) were assessed by flow cytometry on T cells from the two compartments.
|

|
Circulating CD4(+) CD28(null) T cells were significantly more hypomethylated in the CNS-1 region of the IFNG locus than conventional CD4(+) CD28(+) T cells and produced higher levels of both IFN-γ and TNF after TCR cross-linking.
|

24313359
|
CD4(+) CD28(null) T cells from the site of inflammation expressed significantly more CXCR3 and CCR6 compared to their counterparts in blood.
|

|
While IL-17A production could hardly be detected in CD4(+) CD28(null) cells from the blood, a significant production was observed in CD4(+) CD28(null) T cells from synovial fluid.
|
| 19 |
24313359
|
CD4(+) CD28(null) T cells were not only found to differ from conventional CD4(+) CD28(+) T cells in the circulation, but we could also demonstrate that synovial CD4(+) CD28(null) T cells showed additional effector functions (IL-17 coproduction) as compared to the same subset in peripheral blood, suggesting an active role for these cells in the perpetuation of inflammation in the subset of patients having a CD28(null) population.
