IR antibody treatment Conclusions and Perspectives At 24 hours of reperfusion, depletion of TCD4+CTLA-4+Foxp3+ cells was 30,3% (spleen) and 67,8% (para renal lymphnodes).After 72 hours of reperfusion, depletion of TCD4+CTLA-4+Foxp3+ was 43,1% (spleen) and 90,22% (para renal lymphnodes). This depletion was efficient in generate significant responses in both 24 hours and 72 hours if reperfusion Depleted mice presented similar renal function to control animals at 24 hours, but 72 hours after IRI, PC61 treated mice presented significant worst renal function compared to the group that received IgG. DTA-1 treated animals presented significant protection at the same timepoint, indicating that different subsets of cells can be acting at these timepoints. Furthermore, histopathological analyses showed that there was a pronounced incidence of necrosis for both PC61 treated and IgG in IR 24 hours experiments. On the other hand, in IR 72 hours experiments we observed a regeneration pattern in both PC61 and IgG treated animals, but in the PC61 treated group there was a significant necrosis index (p<0.001), comparing with IgG treated group, suggesting that TCD4+CTLA4+FOXP3+ cell population could be important in a late phase of injury recover. It is known that the stress and tissue damage associated with IRI influence the development of a immune response to protect the tissue damage. Thus, our results suggests a role for TCD4+CTLA4+FOXP3+ cells (naturally arising T teg cells) in renal IRI experimental model.
CD4+CD25+Foxp3+ T Cells Post ischemic injury CD4+ effector T Cells 24 hs: TCD4+ effector Stimulated by DTA-1 escape from T Reg suppression and make injury worst Proinflamatory cytokines IL-1b and IL-6 Anti inflamatory genes Such as HO-1 and polarization toward Th2 (GATA-3) transcription factor 72 hs: If there is no T Reg at this point (PC61 treatment), there is no recovery from injury Persistence of necrosis IR antibody treatment Hypothesis 72 hs: TRegs GITRhigh stimulated by DTA-1 start to suppress TCD4+ response
