Abstract
Interactions among leukocytes and leukocytes with immune-associated auxiliary cells represent an essential feature of the immune response that requires the involvement of cell adhesion molecules (CAMs). In the immune system, CAMs include a wide range of members pertaining to different structural and functional families involved in cell development, activation, differentiation and migration. Among them, β2 integrins (LFA-1, Mac-1, p150,95 and αDβ2) are predominantly involved in homotypic and heterotypic leukocyte adhesion. β2 integrins bind to intercellular (I)CAMs, actin cytoskeleton-linked receptors belonging to immunoglobulin superfamily (IgSF)-CAMs expressed by leukocytes and vascular endothelial cells, enabling leukocyte activation and transendothelial migration. β2 integrins have long been viewed as the most important ICAMs partners, propagating intracellular signalling from β2 integrin-ICAM adhesion receptor interaction. In this review, we present previous evidence from pioneering studies and more recent findings supporting an important role for ICAMs in signal transduction. We also discuss the contribution of immune ICAMs (ICAM-1, -2, and -3) to reciprocal cell signalling and function in processes in which β2 integrins supposedly take the lead, paying particular attention to T cell activation, differentiation and migration.

[PMID: 35489320 DOI: 10.1016/j.jpba.2022.114795] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/19/2021] [Revised: 04/18/2022] [Accepted: 04/21/2022] [Indexed: 11/18/2022]
Abstract
Data independent acquisition (DIA) has emerged as a powerful proteomic technique with exceptional reproducibility and throughput, and has been widely applied to clinical sample analysis. DIA approaches normally rely on project-specific spectral libraries generated by data dependent acquisition (DDA), requiring extensive off-line fractionation and large amounts of input material. In this study, we aimed to explore the utility of DIA for the analysis of samples with limited quantities. We employed three software tools (DIA-NN, Spectronaut, and EncyclopeDIA) for data analysis and generated three types of libraries, including an experiment-specific library built by DDA analysis of off-line fractions, a FASTA sequence database, and a library generated by gas-phase fractionation (GPF), resulting in eight analysis pipelines. Then we systematically compared the performance of the eight strategies by analyzing the DIA data from HEK293T cell tryptic peptides with sample loads of 500 ng, 100 ng, 20 ng, and 4 ng. The results showed that DIA-NN with GPF-based libraries outperformed the others in protein identification and retention time calibration. Next, we further evaluated the optimized workflow by analyzing the proteome alteration in 5000 peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulation. As a result, 3179 protein groups were quantified, and functional analysis revealed activation of multiple signaling pathways, e. g., endocytosis, NF-kappa B signaling, and T cell receptor signaling. The results showed the practicability of using DIA for scarce samples, and the established workflow of PBMC analysis could be easily adapted for biomarker discovery, immune status evaluation, and drug response monitoring, especially for diseases involved with dysfunction of the immune system.

Abstract
Tissue-resident γδ T cells form the first line of defense at barrier surfaces where they survey host tissue for signs of stress or damage. Following recognition of injury, γδ T cells play a crucial role in the wound-healing response through the production of growth factors and cytokines that promote proliferation in surrounding epithelial cells. To initiate this response, γδ T cells require interactions with a variety of epithelial-expressed costimulatory molecules in addition to primary signaling through their TCR. In the epidermis these signals include the coxsackie and adenovirus receptor (CAR), histocompatibility antigen 60c (H60c), and plexin B2, which interact with γδ T cell-expressed junctional adhesion molecule-like protein (JAML), NKG2D, and CD100, respectively. Here we identify heat shock protein family A member 8 (Hspa8) and ICAM-1 as two additional keratinocyte-expressed costimulatory molecules for epidermal resident γδ T cells (termed DETC). These molecules were rapidly up-regulated in the epidermis following wounding in both mouse and human tissue. Both Hspa8 and ICAM-1 had a costimulatory effect on DETC, inducing proliferation, CD25 up-regulation, and IL-2 production. We also provide evidence that DETC can be activated through the potential ICAM-1 and Hspa8 receptors LFA-1 and CD316. Finally, knockdown of Hspa8 in keratinocytes reduced their ability to activate DETC in culture and ICAM-1-/- mice exhibited impaired rates of healing in skin-organ culture suggesting a role for these proteins in the DETC-mediated damage response. Together with previous work on CAR, H60c, and plexin B2, these results add to a picture of a complex keratinocyte wound signature that is required for efficient DETC activation.

Abstract
The integrin LFA-1 is crucial for T cell entry into mammalian lymph nodes and tissues, and for promoting interactions with antigen-presenting cells (APCs). However, it is increasingly evident that LFA-1 has additional key roles beyond the mere support of adhesion between T cells, the endothelium, and/or APCs. These include roles in homotypic T cell-T cell (T-T) communication, the induction of intracellular complement activity underlying Th1 effector cell polarization, and the support of long-lasting T cell memory. Here, we briefly summarize current knowledge of LFA-1 biology, discuss novel cytoskeletal regulators of LFA-1 functions, and review new aspects of LFA-1 mechanobiology that are relevant to its function in immunological synapses and in specific pathologies arising from LFA-1 dysregulation.

Abstract
Objectives Immune dysregulation contributes to the development of RA. Altered surface expression patterns of integrin adhesion receptors by immune cells is one mechanism by which this may occur. We investigated the role of β2 integrin subunits CD11a and CD11b in dendritic cell (DC) subsets of RA patients. Methods Total β2 integrin subunit expression and its conformation (‘active’ vs ‘inactive’ state) were quantified in DC subsets from peripheral blood (PB) and SF of RA patients as well as PB from healthy controls. Ex vivo stimulation of PB DC subsets and in vitro-generated mature and tolerogenic monocyte-derived DCs (moDCs) were utilized to model the clinical findings. Integrin subunit contribution to DC function was tested by analysing clustering and adhesion, and in co-cultures to assess T cell activation. Results A significant reduction in total and active CD11a expression in DCs in RA SF compared with PB and, conversely, a significant increase in CD11b expression was found. These findings were modelled in vitro using moDCs: tolerogenic moDCs showed higher expression of active CD11a and reduced levels of active CD11b compared with mature moDCs. Finally, blockade of CD11b impaired T cell activation in DC–T cell co-cultures. Conclusion For the first time in RA, we show opposing expression of CD11a and CD11b in DCs in environments of inflammation (CD11alow/CD11bhigh) and steady state/tolerance (CD11ahigh/CD11blow), as well as a T cell stimulatory role for CD11b. These findings highlight DC integrins as potential novel targets for intervention in RA.

Abstract
ICAM-1 is a cell surface glycoprotein and an adhesion receptor that is best known for regulating leukocyte recruitment from circulation to sites of inflammation. However, in addition to vascular endothelial cells, ICAM-1 expression is also robustly induced on epithelial and immune cells in response to inflammatory stimulation. Importantly, ICAM-1 serves as a biosensor to transduce outside-in-signaling via association of its cytoplasmic domain with the actin cytoskeleton following ligand engagement of the extracellular domain. Thus, ICAM-1 has emerged as a master regulator of many essential cellular functions both at the onset and at the resolution of pathologic conditions. Because the role of ICAM-1 in driving inflammatory responses is well recognized, this review will mainly focus on newly emerging roles of ICAM-1 in epithelial injury-resolution responses, as well as immune cell effector function in inflammation and tumorigenesis. ICAM-1 has been of clinical and therapeutic interest for some time now; however, several attempts at inhibiting its function to improve injury resolution have failed. Perhaps, better understanding of its beneficial roles in resolution of inflammation or its emerging function in tumorigenesis will spark new interest in revisiting the clinical value of ICAM-1 as a potential therapeutic target.

Abstract
Allopurinol is the first-line medication for hyperuricemia treatment. However, severe drug-related adverse effects have often been reported among patients who received allopurinol administration. This study is aimed at evaluating the possible attenuation effects of highly acylated anthocyanins from purple sweet potato (HAA-PSP) on hyperuricemia and kidney inflammation in hyperuricemic mice treated with allopurinol. In comparison with 5 mg kg-1 allopurinol used alone, the combination of 25 mg kg-1 HAA-PSP and 2.5 mg kg-1 allopurinol could not only reduce serum uric acid level in hyperuricemic mice but also attenuate the kidney damage, as indicated by the level of serum biomarkers as well as histopathological examination. The inflammatory response was partially mitigated by inhibiting the protein expression of typical cytokines in the kidney. Our findings provide new evidence for the supplementary therapeutic potential of HAA-PSP with allopurinol on hyperuricemia and inflammation-related syndromes. Moreover, this study provides a theoretical basis for assessing the potential of anthocyanin-rich foods in health.

Abstract
Epithelial tissues line the body providing a protective barrier from the external environment. Maintenance of these epithelial barrier tissues critically relies on the presence of a functional resident T cell population. In some tissues, the resident T cell population is exclusively comprised of γδ T cells, while in others γδ T cells are found together with αβ T cells and other lymphocyte populations. Epithelial-resident γδ T cells function not only in the maintenance of the epithelium, but are also central to the repair process following damage from environmental and pathogenic insults. Key to their function is the crosstalk between γδ T cells and neighboring epithelial cells. This crosstalk relies on multiple receptor–ligand interactions through both the T cell receptor and accessory molecules leading to temporal and spatial regulation of cytokine, chemokine, growth factor, and extracellular matrix protein production. As antigens that activate epithelial γδ T cells are largely unknown and many classical costimulatory molecules and coreceptors are not used by these cells, efforts have focused on identification of novel coreceptors and ligands that mediate pivotal interactions between γδ T cells and their neighbors. In this review, we discuss recent advances in the understanding of functions for these coreceptors and their ligands in epithelial maintenance and repair processes.

Abstract
Adoptive cell therapy (ACT) has shown very promising results as treatment for cancer in a few clinical trials, such as the complete remissions of otherwise terminal leukemia patients. Nevertheless, the introduction of ACT into clinics requires overcoming not only medical but also technical challenges, such as the ex vivo expansion of large amounts of specific T-cells. Nanostructured surfaces represent a novel T-cell stimulation technique that enables us to fine-tune the density and orientation of activating molecules presented to the cells. In this work, we studied the influence of integrin-mediated cell-adhesion on T-cell activation, proliferation, and differentiation using nanostructured surfaces, which provide a well-defined system at the nanoscale compared with standard cultures. Specifically, we synthesized a polymeric polyethylene glycol (PEG) hydrogel cross-linked with two fibronectin-derived peptides, cyclic Arg-Gly-Asp (cRGD) and cyclic Leu-Asp-Val (cLDV), that are known to activate different integrins. Moreover, the hydrogels were decorated with a quasi-hexagonal array of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) functionalized with the activating antibody CD3 to initiate T-cell activation. Both cLDV and cRGD hydrogels showed higher T-cell activation (CD69 expression and IL-2 secretion) than nonfunctionalized PEG hydrogels. However, only the cRGD hydrogels clearly supported proliferation giving a higher proportion of cells with memory (CD4+CD45RO+) than naı̈ve (CD4+CD45RA+) phenotypes when interparticle distances smaller than 150 nm were used. Thus, T-cell proliferation can be enhanced by the activation of integrins through the RGD sequence.

Abstract
To further investigate the contribution of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) to adaptive immune responses, we analysed T-cell development and function in mice lacking full-length ICAM-1 (ICAM-1(tm1Jcgr) ). Compared with wild-type (ICAM-1(WT) ) mice, ICAM-1(tm1Jcgr) mice have impaired thymocyte development. Proportions and numbers of double negative, double positive, mature CD4(+) and CD8(+) thymocytes, as well as of regulatory T (Treg) cells were also significantly decreased. In the periphery, ICAM-1(tm1Jcgr) mice had significantly decreased proportions and numbers of naive and activated/memory CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells, as well as of Treg cells, in lymph nodes but not in the spleen. In vitro activation of CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells from ICAM-1(tm1Jcgr) mice with anti-CD3 antibodies and antigen-presenting cells (APCs) resulted in a significantly weaker proliferation, whereas proliferation induced with anti-CD3 and anti-CD28 antibody-coated beads was normal. In vivo immunization of ICAM-1(tm1Jcgr) mice resulted in normal generation of specific effector and memory immune responses that protect against a viral challenge. However, contrary to ICAM-1(WT) mice, immunization-induced specific effectors could not eradicate immunogen-expressing tumours. Treg cells from ICAM-1(tm1Jcgr) mice have abnormal activation and proliferation induced by anti-CD3 antibody and APCs, and have markedly decreased suppressive activity in vitro. In contrast to ICAM-1(WT) mice, they were unable to control experimentally induced colitis in vivo. Hence, our results further highlight the pleiotropic role of ICAM-1 in T-cell-dependent immune responses, with a major role in Treg cell development and suppressive function.

Abstract
A hallmark of T cell activation in vitro and in vivo is the clustering of T cells with each other via interaction of the LFA-1 integrin with ICAM-1. The functional significance of these homotypic aggregates in regulating T cell function remains unknown. We used an APC-free in vitro activation system to demonstrate that stimulation of purified naive CD8 T cells results in enhanced expression of ICAM-1 on T cells that is sustained by the inflammatory cytokine IL-12 and associated with robust T cell aggregates. ICAM-1-deficient CD8 T cells proliferate normally but demonstrate a striking failure to aggregate. Interestingly, loss of ICAM-1 expression results in elevated levels of IFN-γ and granzyme B, as well as enhanced cytotoxicity. Similar results were obtained when anti-LFA-1 Ab was used to block the clustering of wild-type T cells. ICAM-1 ligation is not required for IFN-γ regulation, as clustering of ICAM-1-deficient CD8 T cells with wild-type T cells reduces IFN-γ expression. Analysis using a fluorescent reporter that monitors TCR signal strength indicates that T cell clustering limits T cell exposure to Ag during activation. Furthermore, T cell clustering promotes the upregulation of the CTLA-4 inhibitory receptor and the downregulation of eomesodermin, which controls effector molecule expression. Activation of ICAM-1-deficient CD8 T cells in vivo results in an enhanced percentage of KLRG-1(+) T cells indicative of short-lived effectors. These results suggest that T cell clustering represents a mechanism that allows continued proliferation but regulates T cell effector function and differentiation.

Abstract
In insulin dependent diabetes mellitus (T1D), self-reactive T cells infiltrate pancreatic islets and induce beta cell destruction and dysregulation of blood glucose. A goal is to control only the self-reactive T cells, leaving the remainder of the T cell population free to protect the host. One approach is blockade of the second signal for T cell activation while allowing the first (antigen-specific) signal to occur. This work proposes that small peptides that block interaction of second signals delivered through the counter receptors LFA-1:ICAM-1 will induce attacking T cells (receiving the antigen signal) to become anergic or undergo apoptosis. In NOD mice, the peptides eliminated T cell reactivity against pancreatic antigens and reduced cellular infiltration into islets, which retained stronger density of insulin staining at five weeks after cessation of therapy. In in vitro studies the peptides induced nonresponsiveness during activation of T cells from mice and from human peripheral blood.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Current conventional vaccination approaches do not induce potent CD8 T-cell responses for fighting mostly variable viral diseases such as influenza, avian influenza viruses or HIV. Following our recent study on vaccine penetration by targeting of vaccine to human hair follicular ducts surrounded by Langerhans cells, we tested in the first randomized Phase-Ia trial based on hair follicle penetration (namely transcutaneous route) the induction of virus-specific CD8 T cell responses. METHODS AND FINDINGS We chose the inactivated influenza vaccine - a conventional licensed tetanus/influenza (TETAGRIP) vaccine - to compare the safety and immunogenicity of transcutaneous (TC) versus IM immunization in two randomized controlled, multi-center Phase I trials including 24 healthy-volunteers and 12 HIV-infected patients. Vaccination was performed by application of inactivated influenza vaccine according to a standard protocol allowing the opening of the hair duct for the TC route or needle-injection for the IM route. We demonstrated that the safety of the two routes was similar. We showed the superiority of TC application, but not the IM route, to induce a significant increase in influenza-specific CD8 cytokine-producing cells in healthy-volunteers and in HIV-infected patients. However, these routes did not differ significantly for the induction of influenza-specific CD4 responses, and neutralizing antibodies were induced only by the IM route. The CD8 cell response is thus the major immune response observed after TC vaccination. CONCLUSIONS This Phase Ia clinical trial (Manon05) testing an anti-influenza vaccine demonstrated that vaccines designed for antibody induction by the IM route, generate vaccine-specific CD8 T cells when administered transcutaneously. These results underline the necessity of adapting vaccination strategies to control complex infectious diseases when CD8 cellular responses are crucial. Our work opens up a key area for the development of preventive and therapeutic vaccines for diseases in which CD8 cells play a crucial role. TRIAL REGISTRATION Clinicaltrials.gov NCT00261001.

Abstract
It is well established that full activation of T cells that recognize antigens requires additional signals. These second signals are generated by the interaction of costimulatory ligands expressed on antigen presenting cells with their receptors on T cells. In addition, T cell activation processes are negatively regulated by inhibitory costimulatory pathways. Interaction of members of the B7 and the TNF superfamilies with members of the CD28 and TNF-R-superfamilies plays major roles in costimulatory processes. However, a large number of molecules that do not belong to these families have been reported to be involved in the generation of T cell costimulatory signals. In addition to well-defined costimulatory pathways, where both receptors and ligands are known, there are many T cell surface molecules that have been described to generate a second signal under certain experimental conditions, f.i. when ligated with antibodies. Furthermore there are several ligands that have been shown to positively or negatively modulate T cell activation by interacting with as of yet unknown T cell receptors. Here we give a comprehensive overview of molecules that have been implicated in human T cell activation processes and propose criteria that define genuine T cell costimulatory pathways.

Abnormal immunological profile and vaginal microbiota in women prone to urinary tract infections. CLINICAL AND VACCINE IMMUNOLOGY : CVI 2008; 16:29-36.

Abstract
The host determinants of susceptibility to recurrent urinary tract infections (UTI) are poorly understood. We investigated whether the susceptibility is associated with abnormalities in the immunological defense and further explored the linkage to vaginal microbiota. For this purpose, we compared vaginal, urine, and blood samples collected during a disease-free period from 22 women with recurrent UTI and from 17 controls. In UTI-prone women, interleukin-12 (IL-12) production in peripheral monocytes and myeloid dendritic cells (DCs) was significantly (P < 0.05) enhanced whether measured in relative numbers of IL-12-producing cells or in mean IL-12 production per cell. In contrast, no T-cell polarization was observed. Interestingly, it seemed that the cytokine production of DCs and monocytes did not translate into T-cell activation in the UTI-prone group in a manner similar to that seen with the controls. In vaginal mucosa, UTI-prone women had a lower concentration of tissue repair-associated vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) (P = 0.006) and less often had detectable amounts of the chief monocyte and DC chemoattractant, monocyte chemotactic protein 1 (P = 0.005), than the controls. The microbiota of UTI-prone women was characterized by a diminished lactobacillus morphotype composition, with an abnormally high (>3) mean Nugent score of 4.6 compared to 1.7 for the controls (P = 0.003). Normal lactobacillus composition was associated with increased IL-17 and VEGF concentrations in vaginal mucosa. In conclusion, immunological defects and a persistently aberrant microbiota, a lack of lactobacilli in particular, may contribute to susceptibility to recurrent UTI. Further studies of antigen-presenting-cell function and T-cell activation in recurrent UTI are called for.

Abstract
In addition to levels of high-density lipoprotein (HDL), oxidized (ox) low-density lipoprotein (LDL), the inflammatory process and certain genetic factors, T cells are crucial for expansion of atherosclerotic plaque. The interrelationships among these influences are still being defined. Here, we examined how HDL and oxLDL affect T cell function. T cells require two activation signals to achieve functional activity. The first signal is specific and is delivered by appropriately presented antigen. The second (costimulatory) signal can be received through any of several T cell surface proteins, the most widely studied of which are CD28 and LFA-1. We have identified ICAM-1, resident on T cells, as a costimulatory protein. Here, we describe differential effects when T cells were costimulated through either LFA-1 or ICAM-1 in the presence of HDL or oxLDL. In general, T cells costimulated through either LFA-1 or ICAM-1 in the presence of oxLDL were predisposed to a decrease in proliferation and increased apoptosis, although ICAM-1-costimulated cells were protected from apoptosis induced by lower levels of oxLDL. T cell subsets also were examined. In the presence of HDL, CD8(+) T cells increased proliferation when costimulated through LFA-1. HDL exerted no effect on proliferation of CD4(+) T cells whereas proliferation decreased in the presence of oxLDL. Naïve T cells proliferated better in response to costimulation through LFA-1 in the presence of HDL but proliferation of effector/memory cells was not altered in the presence of HDL. When T cells were costimulated through LFA-1, in the presence of either HDL or oxLDL synthesis of Th-1 but not Th-2 cytokines was increased. T cells costimulated through ICAM-1 increased Th-1 but not Th-2 cytokines but this was not altered in the presence of HDL or oxLDL. Thus, the nature of costimulation seems to influence T cell responses in the presence of the lipoproteins.

Abstract
The process by which naive T cells become activated, differentiate into effector cells and ultimately generate long-lived memory cells is dependent upon a number of factors, including the costimulatory signals received by the T cell. To best understand the multiple events involved, it is important to understand the potential contributions by individual signalling proteins using both in vitro and in vivo studies. Here, the potential for costimulation through intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1; CD54), resident on the surface of naive human T cells, to influence differentiation was investigated. Costimulation of naive T cells through ICAM-1 resulted in expansive cell division, high interleukin-2 production, and protection from apoptosis. Prolonged culture led to outgrowth of a subpopulation of cells with a highly differentiated CD45RA- CD11a(hi) CD27- phenotype. In this respect, costimulation through ICAM-1 was similar to costimulation through CD28 and different from costimulation through leucocyte function-associated antigen-1. The CD45RA- CD11a(hi) CD27- cells responded to suboptimal stimulation through the T-cell receptor alone with a more robust proliferative response compared with naive cells from the same subject. These cells also secreted higher levels of T helper type 1 cytokines in response to lower levels of stimulation than their naive counterparts. The surface phenotype and more sensitive response characteristics suggest the creation of a memory T-cell subpopulation as a result of costimulation through ICAM-1. Finally, generation of this memory population was the result of specific costimulatory signals, and not merely because of a high number of cell divisions. These data reveal a new role for resident ICAM-1 to influence the differentiation of naive T cells.

Abstract
ICAM-1/LFA-1 interactions are known to enhance T cell/APC interactions and to promote T cell activation and cytokine secretion. We have analyzed the consequences of ICAM-1-mediated signaling on the generation of memory T cell subsets. We report that lack of ICAM-1 on APCs, but not on T cells, leads to poor T cell activation and proliferation in vitro and in vivo, and that the defect can be compensated by Ag dose, exogenous IL-2, additional costimulation, and by increasing responder T cell density on APCs. ICAM-1-null mice do not respond to immunization with OVA peptide, but immunization with OVA or with Salmonella typhimurium leads to good T cell proliferation 7-10 days later, and clearance of a challenge infection is equivalent to that of wild-type mice. However, when followed over time, recall proliferation and antibacterial immunity decay rapidly in ICAM-1-null mice, while recall cytokine responses are unaffected. The decline in immunity is not related to poor survival of T cells activated on ICAM-1-null APCs, or to poor generation of effectors in ICAM-1-null mice. Phenotypic analysis of T cells stimulated on ICAM-1-null APCs reveals preferential generation of CD44(high) CD62L(low) effector memory cells (T(EM)) over CD44(high) CD62L(high) central memory cells (T(CM)). Further, while the proportion of naive:memory T cells is similar in unmanipulated wild-type and ICAM-1-null mice, there is an accumulation of T(EM) cells, and a high T(EM):T(CM) ratio in aging ICAM-1-null mice. Together, the data indicate that signaling through LFA-1 during T cell activation may be involved in commitment to a proliferation-competent memory pool.

Abstract
To clarify the molecular mechanisms underlying multiple sclerosis (MS)-promoting autoimmune process, we have investigated a comprehensive gene expression profile of T cell and non-T cell fractions of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) isolated from 72 MS patients and 22 age- and sex-matched healthy control (CN) subjects by using a cDNA microarray. Among 1258 genes examined, 173 genes in T cells and 50 genes in non-T cells were expressed differentially between MS and CN groups. Downregulated genes greatly outnumbered upregulated genes in MS. More than 80% of the top 30 most significant genes were categorized into apoptosis signaling-related genes of both proapoptotic and antiapoptotic classes. They included upregulation in MS of orphan nuclear receptor Nurr1 (NR4A2), receptor-interacting serine/threonine kinase 2 (RIPK2), and silencer of death domains (SODD), and downregulation in MS of TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL), B-cell CLL/lymphoma 2 (BCL2), and death-associated protein 6 (DAXX). Furthermore, a set of the genes involved in DNA repair, replication, and chromatin remodeling was downregulated in MS. These results suggest that MS lymphocytes show a complex pattern of gene regulation that represents a counterbalance between promoting and preventing apoptosis and DNA damage of lymphocytes.

Abstract
The activation of naive CD4+ T cells requires both TCR engagement and a second costimulatory signal mediated by the interaction of CD28 with CD80/CD86 expressed on professional APC. However, the situation for naive CD8+ T cells is less clear. Although evidence indicates that induction of CD8+ T cell responses is also dependent on professional APC, the ability of some tumors, which do not express CD80/CD86, to induce CTL suggests that other pathways of costimulation exist for the activation of CD8+ T cells. We examined the ability of tumor cells expressing different levels of a tumor-specific Ag to directly prime CD8+ T cells. We demonstrate that CD8+ T cells are directly activated by tumor cells in a CD80/CD86-CD28 independent manner. In this system, costimulation requires ICAM-1/LFA-1 interaction. This results in the generation of CTL capable of inhibiting tumor growth in vivo, and maintaining long-term survival.
