Commensal-Specific CD4(+) Cells From Patients With Crohn's Disease Have a T-Helper 17 Inflammatory Profile

BACKGROUND & AIMS: Crohn's disease (CD) has been associated with an altered immune response to commensal microbiota, mostly based on increased seroreactivity to microbial proteins. Although T cells are believed to contribute to the development of CD, little is known about the antigens invol...

Although T cells are believed to contribute to the development of CD, little is known about the antigens involved. We investigated the antigen-specificity of T cells isolated from patients with CD. METHODS: We isolated peripheral blood mononuclear cells from 65 patients with CD and 45 healthy individuals (controls). We investigated T-cell reactivity to commensal microbial antigens using proliferation assays (based on thymidine incorporation and carboxyfluorescein succinimidyl ester dilution). Gene expression patterns were determined using microarray and real-time polymerase chain reaction analyses. Cytokines, chemokines, and antibodies were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, flow cytometry, or multiplex cytokine assays. Intestinal crypts were obtained from surgical resection specimens of 7 individuals without inflammatory bowel disease. We examined the effects of commensal-specific CD4(+) T cells on primary intestinal epithelial cells from these samples. RESULTS: The bacterial proteins FlaX, A4-fla2, and YidX increased proliferation of CD4(+) T cells isolated from peripheral blood of patients with CD compared with controls. In blood samples from controls, CD4(+) T cells specific for FlaX, A4-fla2, or YidX had a T-helper (Th) 1 phenotype; a larger proportion of CD4(+) T cells specific for these proteins in patients with CD had a Th17 phenotype or produced Th1 and Th17 cytokines. When supernatants collected from commensal-specific CD4(+) T cells from patients with CD were applied to healthy intestinal epithelial cells, the epithelial cells increased the expression of the chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 1 (CXCL1), CXCL8 and the CC chemokine ligand 20 (CCL20). CONCLUSIONS: A larger proportion of commensal-specific CD4(+) T cells from patients with CD have a Th17 phenotype or produce Th1 and Th17 cytokines, compared with T cells from controls; this might contribute to intestinal inflammation in patients with CD. These cells might be targeted for treatment of CD. The transcriptional data of commensal-specific CD4(+) T cells from healthy individuals and CD patients have been deposited in the Gene Expression Omnibus at the National Center for Biotechnology Information (accession no: GSE70469).Elsevier2025202520162025info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/acceptedVersion15 p.application/pdfhttps://hdl.handle.net/2445/222122Articles publicats en revistes (Medicina)reponame:Recercat.
