目的:评估小鼠不同组织中B10细胞的比例,分离B10细胞并鉴定其生物学功能,探讨其对效应性T细胞( CD4+CD25-T)及调节性T细胞( Treg)的免疫调节机制。方法采用流式细胞仪检测小鼠不同组织来源B10细胞的表达以及脂多糖( lipopolysaccharide ,LPS)对B10激活的影响;采用流式细胞分选术( FACS)和免疫磁珠分选术( MACS)分选B10细胞、CD4+CD25-T 细胞和Treg;利用混合淋巴细胞培养实验观察B10对CFSE标记的CD4+CD25-T细胞和CD4+CD25+T细胞增殖的调节作用及机制。结果(1)脾脏CD19+CD5+CD1dhigh B细胞表达为(3.95±0.79)%,与外周血、肠系膜淋巴结和外周淋巴结相比较表达最高,组间差异有统计学意义(P<0.05);脾脏CD19+IL-10+B细胞表达为(2.02±0.16)%,与外周血、肠系膜淋巴结和外周淋巴结相比较表达最高(P<0.05),且IL-10主要由CD1dhighCD5+B细胞亚群分泌(P<0.01);(2) LPS联合乙酸佛波醇(PMA)、莫能菌素(monen-sin)和离子霉素(ionomycin)能活化B10细胞分泌IL-10。延长LPS的作用时间(48 h)能促进CD19+CD5+CD1dhigh B细胞高表达及IL-10分泌增加(P<0.01);(3) CD19+CD5+CD1dhigh B细胞在体外可抑制CD4+CD25-T细胞增殖(P<0.01)、促进CD4+T细胞分泌IL-10(P<0.01),同时可促进Treg增殖(P<0.01)。结论 B10细胞在小鼠脾脏高表达,通过Toll样受体(TLR)信号通路被激活。活化的B10细胞具有免疫抑制性,可抑制CD4+CD25-T细胞增殖,促进Treg增殖,其可能免疫调节机制是IL-10的释放增加。因此B10细胞有望为治疗多种自身免疫性疾病提供一种全新的治疗方法。
Objective To investigate the phenotypes and percentages of B 10 cells in different tis-sues from wild-type mice and to identify their biological functions .Methods The percentages of B10 cells derived from different tissues of mice and their responses to lipopolysaccharide ( LPS) stimulation were ana-lyzed by flow cytometry .Magnetic-activated cell sorting ( MACS ) and fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) were used to purify B10 cells, CD4+CD25-T cells and Treg cells.CD4+CD25-T cells and Treg cells labeled by CFSE were co-cultured with or without B10 cells, and then their proliferation were evaluated after 72 h.Results (1) A subset of CD19+CD5+CD1dhigh regulatory B cells was identified in spleen , pe-ripheral blood and lymph nodes from wild-type mice , of which the highest frequency was detected in spleen (3.95%±0.79%, P〈0.05).The isolated B cells from different tissues were stimulated by LPS , PMA, ionomycin and monensin (L+PIM) in vitro to express IL-10.Among them, splenic CD19+IL-10+B cells showed the highest expression of IL-10 (P〈0.05).(2) Prolonged LPS stimulation (48 h) to CD5+CD1dhigh B cells enhanced the expressions of IL-10 (P〈0.01).(3) CD19+CD5+CD1dhigh B cells inhibited the prolif-eration of CD4+CD25-T cells in vitro in a dose-dependent manner (P〈0.01), but increased the secretion of IL-10 by CD4+T cells (P〈0.01) and the proliferation of Treg cells in vitro (P〈0.01).Conclusion Com-pared with other tissues , the percentage of B10 cell subset in spleen is the highest in wild-type mouse , and B10 cells subset can be activated through Toll-like receptor ( TLR ) signaling pathway .The responses of CD4+CD25-T cells and Treg cells in co-culture with B10 cells are regulated by B 10 cell subset through an increased IL-10 production .B10 cells might be a useful cell population for the treatment of inflammatory au-toimmune diseases.
