Abstract

To generate engineering Th17 cells from mice CD4(+)CD25(-) naïve T cells, and to evaluate whether the phenotypes or functions of these engineering cells were similar to natural Th17 cells. Recombinant lentivirus carrying mouse RORγt (pXZ9-RORγt) and mock control pXZ9 were generated by co-transfected three-plasmids into 293FT packing cells. CD4(+)CD25(-) naïve T cells were purified from mice spleens by magnetic activated cell sorting, and stimulated by anti-CD3ε, anti-CD28 mAb plus IL-2. The stimulated cells were further infected by pXZ9-RORγt or pXZ9 virus with or without polarization by TGF-β plus IL-6 and divided into five groups: pXZ9-RORγt (group A), pXZ9 + TGF-β + IL-6 (group B), pXZ9-RORγt + TGF-β + IL-6 (group C), pXZ9 (group D) and control (group E). Production efficiency of engineering Th17 cells was referred as the percentage of IL-17A producing cells. Cytokine production profiles of these cells were assayed by realtime RT-PCR and cells function was evaluated by susceptibility of mouse experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE). (1) High-title lentivirus was prepared and was succeeded to transduce CD4(+)CD25(-) naïve T cells. Forced expression of RORγt (group A) resulted in (40.25 ± 5.46)% CD4(+)CD25(-) naïve T c...Continue Reading
