摘要

研究在肠道相关淋巴组织(GALT)中鉴定出滤泡辅助性T(TFH)细胞的一项不依赖B细胞的新功能:TFH细胞在T细胞与B细胞交界区及滤泡间区产生IL-2,这种局部IL-2为维持GALT内调节性T(Treg)细胞稳态、抑制致病性效应T细胞扩增所必需。选择性缺失IL-2产生型TFH细胞的小鼠出现结肠炎及致死性多器官炎症,并伴GALT Treg反应受损与效应T细胞失控活化;广谱抗生素治疗可减轻肠道及肠外病变,提示对共生菌抗原的耐受丧失是疾病关键驱动因素。该研究定义了空间受限的TFH细胞来源IL-2微环境。

原文摘要

Follicular helper T (TFH) cells are well known for their role in supporting B cell responses. Here, we identify a critical B cell-independent function for TFH cells in sustaining regulatory T (Treg) cells within gut-associated lymphoid tissues (GALT). We demonstrate that TFH cells produce interleukin-2 (IL-2) at the T cell-B cell border and within interfollicular regions and that this localized IL-2 is required to maintain GALT Treg cell homeostasis and restrain the expansion of pathogenic effector T cells. Mice selectively lacking IL-2-producing TFH cells develop colitis and fatal multiorgan inflammation, driven by impaired GALT Treg cell responses and uncontrolled effector T cell activation. Broad-spectrum antibiotic treatment alleviates both intestinal and extraintestinal pathology, indicating that loss of tolerance to commensal-derived antigens is a key driver of disease. Together, these findings define a spatially restricted TFH cell-derived IL-2 niche critical for GALT Treg cell stability and uncover an unexpected immunoregulatory role for TFH cells in maintaining gastrointestinal tolerance beyond B cell help.

推荐理由:机制新颖、实验体系扎实,但研究对象为肠道免疫耐受,与生殖、配子与胚胎的直接关联很弱,仅对理解生殖道黏膜免疫与免疫耐受有间接启发,故不列为必读。
