Abstract

The relationship between the T cell receptor (TCR) repertoires used by self-reactive transcription factor Foxp3-positive (Foxp3(+)) CD4(+) regulatory T cells (T(reg) cells) and nonregulatory T cells with autoimmune potential is unclear. Here we found that the TCR repertoire of thymic T(reg) cells in TCRbeta-transgenic mice was diverse and was more similar to that of peripheral T(reg) cells than that of nonregulatory T cells, suggesting that thymic T(reg) cells make a substantial contribution to the peripheral T(reg) cell population. Activated T cells in Foxp3-deficient mice, which lack T(reg) cells, 'preferentially' used TCRs found in the TCR repertoire of T(reg) cells in Foxp3-sufficient TCRbeta-transgenic mice, suggesting that these self-reactive TCRs contribute to the pathology of Foxp3-deficient mice. Our analyses suggest that T(reg) cells and potentially pathogenic autoimmune T cells use overlapping pools of self-reactive TCRs.

Autoimmune Diseases

Autoimmune diseases occur as a result of an attack by the immune system on the body’s own tissues resulting in damage and dysfunction. There are different types of autoimmune diseases, in which there is a complex and unknown interaction between genetics and the environment. Discover the latest research on autoimmune diseases here.
