OBJECTIVES Understanding the T cell receptor (TCR) repertoire of regulatory CD4+ T-cell (Treg) populations is important for strategies aiming to re-establish tolerance in autoimmune diseases. We studied circulating deamidated gluten-epitope-specific CD39+ Tregs in patients with coeliac disease following an oral gluten challenge, and we used cytomegalovirus (CMV)-specific CD39+ Tregs from healthy controls as a comparator population. METHODS We used the OX40 assay to isolate antigen-specific Tregs by induced surface co-expression of CD25, OX40 and CD39. RACE PCR amplification and Sanger sequencing of the TCR β chain were used to analyse repertoire diversity. RESULTS We found that, following oral gluten challenge, circulating gluten-specific CD39+ Tregs had an oligoclonal TCR repertoire that contained public clonotypes. Conversely, the TCR repertoire of CMV-epitope-specific CD39+ Tregs from healthy controls was polyclonal. DISCUSSION These data indicate that a biased TCR repertoire is not inherent to CD39+ Tregs, and, in this case, is apparently driven by the HLA-DQ2.5-restricted deamidated gluten peptide in coeliac disease patients. CONCLUSION This is the first assessment of the TCR repertoire within circulating human Tregs specific for foreign antigen. These data enhance our understanding of antigen-specific CD4+ responses in the settings of chronic inflammation and infection and may help guide immunomonitoring strategies for CD4+ T cell-based therapies, particularly for coeliac disease.

循环麸质特异性而非 CMV 特异性 CD39+ 调节性 T 细胞具有寡克隆 TCR 库。

目标 了解调节性 CD4+ T 细胞 (Treg) 群体的 T 细胞受体 (TCR) 库对于旨在重建自身免疫性疾病耐受性的策略非常重要。我们研究了口服麸质挑战后乳糜泻患者的循环脱酰胺麸质表位特异性 CD39+ Tregs,我们使用来自健康对照的巨细胞病毒 (CMV) 特异性 CD39+ Tregs 作为比较人群。方法 我们使用 OX40 试验通过诱导 CD25、OX40 和 CD39 的表面共表达来分离抗原特异性 Treg。使用 RACE PCR 扩增和 TCR β 链的 Sanger 测序来分析曲目多样性。结果 我们发现,在口服麸质激发后,循环中的麸质特异性 CD39+ Tregs 具有包含公共克隆型的寡克隆 TCR 库。反过来,来自健康对照的 CMV 表位特异性 CD39+ Treg 的 TCR 库是多克隆的。讨论 这些数据表明,偏向的 TCR 库不是 CD39+ Treg 固有的,在这种情况下,显然是由乳糜泻患者中的 HLA-DQ2.5 限制性脱酰胺谷蛋白肽驱动的。结论 这是对外源抗原特异性循环人类 Treg 中 TCR 库的首次评估。这些数据增强了我们对慢性炎症和感染情况下抗原特异性 CD4+ 反应的理解,并可能有助于指导基于 CD4+ T 细胞的疗法的免疫监测策略,特别是针对乳糜泻。显然是由乳糜泻患者中的 HLA-DQ2.5 限制性脱酰胺谷蛋白肽驱动的。结论 这是对外源抗原特异性循环人类 Treg 中 TCR 库的首次评估。这些数据增强了我们对慢性炎症和感染情况下抗原特异性 CD4+ 反应的理解,并可能有助于指导基于 CD4+ T 细胞的疗法的免疫监测策略,特别是针对乳糜泻。显然是由乳糜泻患者中的 HLA-DQ2.5 限制性脱酰胺谷蛋白肽驱动的。结论 这是对外源抗原特异性循环人类 Treg 中 TCR 库的首次评估。这些数据增强了我们对慢性炎症和感染情况下抗原特异性 CD4+ 反应的理解,并可能有助于指导基于 CD4+ T 细胞的疗法的免疫监测策略,特别是针对乳糜泻。
