Definitions
- the present invention relates to a novel method for regulating immunity, particularly a method for regulating immunity by inducing differentiation and promoting proliferation of regulatory ⁇ cells (sometimes called inhibitory ⁇ cells).
- the present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition for use in a method.
- ⁇ cells One cell group that plays a central role in the immune system as a host defense system against various pathogens is ⁇ cells.
- ⁇ Cells are roughly divided into CD4-positive helpers ⁇ cells and CD8-positive cytotoxic ⁇ cells, the former mainly due to the pattern of cytokinin production at specific stages of differentiation and maturation after antigen stimulation.
- -Th1 cells that produce ⁇
- Th2 cells that produce IL-4, etc.
- the former contributes to cell-mediated immunity and the latter contributes to the activation of the humoral immune system, and is deeply involved in host defense. Immune responses are deeply involved in the elimination of pathogens and the acquisition of infectious resistance under a subtle balance by the actions of T cells with these different properties.
- the latter include induction of cell death or induction of non-responsiveness to autoantigens (Rocha, B., and H. von Boehmer. 1991. Science. 251: 1225-1228 .; Jenkins, MK, and RH Schwartz. 1987. J. Exp. Med. 165: 302-319.), Together with an active suppression mechanism by regulatory T cells (Shevach, EM 2000. Annu. Rev. Immunol. 18: 423- 449.) are known. Regulatory T cells are defined as having an inhibitory effect on other T cells. The immune response is based on a subtle balance, for example, it is known that the Thl cells and Th2 cells described above antagonize each other's immune response, and that one acts as a regulatory T cell for the other.
- CD4 + CD25 + which is mainly used for mice and rats. It has been studied in non-human species. That is, CD4 positive spleen cell power of normal mice or rats is also CD25 positive, RT6.1 positive (expressed in most of mature rat T cells), CD5 strong positive, or CD45RB weak positive (mouse) or CD45RC weak positive (rat) It was found that removing cells from the cells and transferring the remaining T cells to immunodeficient animals induced organ-specific autoimmune disease.
- CD4 + CD25 + regulatory T cells were identified in mice and rats as described above, while the presence of similar cells in humans was reported in 2001 by several groups (Jonuleit , H. et al "2001. J. Exp. Med. 193: 1285-1294; Levings, MK et al., 2001. J. Exp. Med. 193: 1295—1301; Dieckmann, D. et al., 2001. J. Exp. Med. 193: 1303-1310; Taama, LS et al., 2001. Eur. J. Immunol. 31: 1122—1131; Stephens, LA et al "2001. Eur. J. Immunol. 31: 1247-1245; Baecher-Allan, C.
- potent CD4 + CD25 + regulatory T cells can be stimulated by anti-CD3 antibody stimulation, stimulation by anti-CD3 and anti-CD28 antibodies, stimulation by allogeneic mature DCs, etc. No DNA synthesis and no production of cytodynamics was observed, ie, CD4 + CD25 + regulatory T cells were in anergy to antigen stimulation.
- CD4 + CD25 + regulatory T cells can increase their DNA synthesis ability by stimulating the site of cytokines such as IL-2, IL-4 and IL-15 in addition to anti-CD3 and anti-CD28 antibodies. Increasing powers Less than that of CD4 + CD25-negative T cells.
- CD4 + CD25 + T cells are stimulated by anti-CD3 antibodies or allogeneic mature DCs to stimulate CD4 + CD25 + regulatory T cells.
- the proliferation inhibitory effect of CD4 positive CD25 negative T cells is observed depending on the number of CD4 positive CD25 positive regulatory T cells.
- CD4-positive CD25-positive regulatory T cells can produce inhibitory cytokins such as IL-10 and TGF-1, but the growth inhibitory effect on CD4-positive CD25-negative cells is It has been reported that the antibody is not released by the sum antibody, and that the inhibitory effect requires direct cell contact between CD4-positive CD25-negative ⁇ cells and CD4-positive CD25-positive regulatory ⁇ cells.
- the existence of CD4 + CD25 + regulatory ⁇ cells in mice, rats and humans has been reported and their characterization has been advanced, but their detailed mechanisms of inhibition and inhibitory action have not yet been elucidated. No markers specific to the cells have been found.
- Trl cells are also anergic, like CD4 + CD25 + regulatory T cells. T cells suppressive mechanisms are influenced by IL-10 and TGF-1 that they produce. May be explainable power Whether the Trl cells and the CD4 + CD25 + regulatory T cells are completely different T cell subsets, or whether they are the same cells at different stages of dyad activity. Tsu, and it is clarified.
- CD4 + CD25 + T cells were isolated from CD4 + and CD25 + T cells. It was confirmed that CD4 + CD25 + T cells from which blood was separated had other cell surface markers and functions similar to those of the same cells in mice and rats. This suggested the existence of CD4 + CD25 + regulatory T cells in humans. These cells are a rare cell population that makes up only 5-10% of peripheral blood CD4-positive T cells and are unresponsive to activated 'proliferative stimuli.
- Regulatory T cells can suppress an autoimmune disease (autoimmune encephalomyelitis, colitis) by transferring them to experimental animals (Kohm, AP et al., 2002. J. Immunol.
- the proteins that make up biological membranes include the transmembrane type, which is present in the cell membrane by the hydrophobic portion contained in the amino acid sequence of its own, and the proteins that are modified by lipids, Some parts are connected to the membrane using the part as an anchor.
- GPI anchor protein (A)
- Glycosylphosphatidylinositol anchored protein belongs to the latter, in which the C-terminal part of the protein is modified, and the oligosaccharide chain and the inositol phospholipid complex lipid covalently bind, and bind to the membrane via the hydrophobic part of the lipid. Te ru.
- GPI anchor proteins There are more than 200 GPI anchor proteins that have been reported so far, and their functions are diverse, such as antigens, enzymes, receptors, and cell adhesion factors (Hiroo Ikezawa, 1999. Protein Nucleic Acid Enzyme. 44: 1321-1328).
- GPI anchor proteins are also expressed on T cells, and it has been reported that these GPI anchor proteins are involved in T cell activation (Horejsi, V. et al., 1998. Immunol. Letter 63: o3—73; Loertscher, R. ana Lavery, P. 2002. Transplant Immunol. 9: 93-96) o
- the GPI anchor protein reported to be involved in T cell activation is Thy- 1 (Kroczek, RA et al., 1986. J. Immunol. 136: 4379-4384), Ly-6 (Malek, TR et al., 1986. J. Exp. Med., 164: 709—722), Qa — 2 (Hahn, AB et al., 1989. J.
- lipid rafts present on T cell membranes play an important role in T cell receptor (TCR) signaling! /! (Xavier, R. et al., 1998) Immunity. 8: 723—732; Montixi, C. et al "1998.
- GPI anchor proteins are thought to transmit a common signal via lipid rafts, regardless of their type (Hale, G. 2001. Cytotherapy. 3: 137-143). ). Indeed, it has been reported that signal transduction factors phosphorylated by GPI anchor protein cross-linking are highly common (Rosemarie, A, et al., 2000. Int. Immunol.
- CD59 is a GPI anchor protein of about 20 kDa, structurally belongs to the Ly6 family, and is expressed in cells of various tissues including the blood system. CD59 binds to C9, one of the complement components, and inhibits the binding of C9 to C5b-8, the final stage of late complement assembly. This suppresses the formation of a membrane-damaging complex on the cell membrane and protects the cells from injury by the complement system. Furthermore, in T cells, in addition to the above-described inhibitory effect of the complement system, it is also known to be involved in adhesion by interacting with CD2 (Lovelan, B. 2002. "CD59” in Leukocyte Typing VII, Oxford University Press: 807-809).
- CD55 is a GPI-anchored protein of about 70 kDa, and is widely expressed in systemic tissues including the blood system. CD55 binds to C3b and C4b, one of the complement components, to inhibit the formation of C3 convertase, and binds to C3bBb and C4b2a to promote the degradation of C3 convertase and regulate complement Injury by the complement system as a factor is known to protect cells! /, Ru (Loveian, B. 2002.'Shishi D5o in Leukocyte Typing VII, Oxford University
- T cells like other GPI anchor proteins, act as costimulators by cross-linking of the CD59 antigen. Do not activate T cells alone. ⁇ When stimulated with low doses of PMA, anti-CD55 antibodies are used to crosslink CD55 to expand CD4 + and CD8 + T cells (Davis, LS et. al., 1988. J. Immunol. 141: 2246-2252) 0 In the costimulation with CD55, the presence of the GPI anchor is essential, and CD55 is fused with the transmembrane domain of CD46 instead of the GPI anchor.
- CD48 is a 45 kDa GPI-anchored protein that belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily. It is widely expressed on leukocytes, and its expression is enhanced in lymphocytes by activation. It is known that CD48 is involved in cell adhesion by binding to CD2 in mice. ⁇ The affinity between CD48 and CD2 is very low in humans. For the link to the disease, It is known that the frequency of CD48-positive lymphocytes decreases in patients with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (Lo, MF, Sandrin, M. 2002. "CD48" in Leukocyte Typing VII, Oxford
- CD48 expressed on T cells as a costimulatory molecule has been specifically investigated in mice.
- CD48 When CD48 is cross-linked by anti-CD48 antibody when stimulated with anti-CD3 antibody, proliferation of T cells is enhanced (Kato, K. et al., 1992. J. Exp. Med. 176: 1241-1249)
- T cell stimulating ability is enhanced in antigen presenting cells transfected with CD2, a ligand of CD48 (Moran, M. et al., 1998. Immunity 9: 787-796) and that costimulation from CD48 by binding of CD2 is important for induction of cytotoxic T cells (Musgrave, BL et al, 2003. J. Interferon Cytokine). Res.
