Stromal cells' B7-1 is a key stimulatory molecule for interleukin-10 production by HOZOT, a multifunctional regulatory T-cell line.
We have previously shown that xenogeneic stromal cell stimulation of naïve T cells resulted in the generation of a new type of regulatory T (Treg) cell termed HOZOT, which has multifunctional properties and a CD4/CD8 double-positive phenotype. Even after the establishment of HOZOT, stromal cells can function as an antigen-presenting cell (APC) by inducing these cells to produce interleukin (IL)-10. When compared with other stimuli, stromal cells showed an IL-10-producing ability comparable to anti-CD3 antibody (Ab) stimulation, and much greater than dendritic cell (DC) stimulation. Distinct from professional APCs, stromal cells express only major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I and B7-1 costimulatory molecules, and not MHC class II or other costimulatory molecules, such as ICOSL (CD275), PD-L1 (CD274), PD-L2 (CD273), CD40, OX40L (CD252) and 4-1BBL (CD137L) in the absence of stimulation. Blocking experiments revealed that, in addition to anti-H-2K(d) Ab and anti-human CD8 Ab, anti-mouse B7-1 Ab could effectively block IL-10 production, indicating a key role of the B7-1/CD28 pathway. Using stromal cells expressing different levels of B7-1, IL-10 production correlated with the levels of B7-1 expression. Distinct from ICOSL or PD-L1 expressed on DCs (which are regarded as IL-10-inducing costimulatory molecules), this study showed that B7-1 on stromal cells is a key molecule regulating IL-10 production by multifunctional Treg cells, HOZOT.Takeshi Otani, Kazue Tsuji-Takayama, Ayumi Okochi, Mayuko Yamamoto, Makoto Takeuchi, Fumiyuki Yamasaki, Shuji Nakamura, Masayoshi Kibata

A functional recombinant single-chain T cell receptor fragment capable of selectively targeting antigen-presenting cells.
Specificity in the immune system is dictated and regulated by specific recognition of peptide/major histocompatibility complexes (MHC) by the T cell receptor (TCR). Such peptide/MHC complexes are a desirable target for novel approaches in immunotherapy because of their highly restricted fine specificity. Recently a potent anti-human p53 CD8(+) cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) response has been developed in HLA-A2 transgenic mice after immunization with peptides corresponding to HLA-A2 motifs from human p53. An alpha/beta T-cell receptor was cloned from such CTL which exhibited a moderately high affinity to the human p53(149-157) peptide. In this report, we investigated the possibility of using a recombinant tumor-specific TCR for antigen-specific elimination of cells that express the specific MHC-peptide complex. To this end, we constructed a functional single-chain Fv fragment from the cloned TCR and fused it to a very potent cytotoxic molecule, a truncated form of Pseudomonas exotoxin A (PE38). The p53 TCR scFv-P38 fusion protein was generated by in vitro refolding from bacterially-expressed inclusion bodies, and was found to be functional by its ability to bind antigen-presenting cells (APC) which express the specific p53-derived peptide. Moreover, we have shown that the p53-specific TCR scFv-PE38 molecule specifically kills APC in a peptide-dependent manner. These results represent the first time that a TCR-derived recombinant single-chain Fv fragment has been used as a targeting moiety to deliver a cytotoxic effector molecule to cells and has been able to mediate the efficient killing of the particular cell population that expresses the specific MHC/peptide complex. Similarly to antibody-based targeting approaches, TCR with tumor cell specificity represent attractive candidates for generating new, very specific targeting moieties for various modes of cancer immunotherapy.Malka Epel, Joshua D Ellenhorn, Don J Diamond, Yoram Reiter
