Abstract:
Kallikrein-binding protein (KBP) is a component of the kallikrein-kinin system that mediates vasodilation and inhibits tumor growth by antagonizing vascular endothelial growth factor-mediated angiogenesis. We demonstrate that KBP gene expression is repressed by T3 and modulated by the orphan nuclear receptor, chicken ovalbumin upstream promoter transcription factor 1 (COUP-TF1). In hypothyroid mice, KBP mRNA expression in the testis was increased 2.1-fold compared with euthyroid mice. We have identified two negative thyroid hormone response elements (nTREs) in the mouse KBP gene, nTRE1 located

Abstract Natural Tregs (nTregs) are produced in the thymus by selection to self peptide-MHC (spMHC) complexes. There is abundant data in the literature that suggests nTreg TCRs are higher affinity for self than conventional T cells and respond to spMHC in the periphery. To date, no nTreg ligands have been found, in part, possibly because nTregs may have TCR affinities that fall somewhere between the affinties required for positive and negative selection in the thymus for conventional T cells. This implies that although nTreg TCRs may be higher affinity for self, this affinity may still be lowe

We have shown in vitro that blocking of IL-10 could partially block the Treg mediated suppression of activated effectors isolated from SK lesions.

Abstract Development of natural regulatory T cells (nTregs) is requisite to maintain central tolerance. nTregs are believed to develop after receiving strong T cell receptor (TCR) signals during T cell maturation in the thymus. This notion comes from experimental systems wherein TCR transgenic T cells adopt the Treg fate only if their cognate antigen is present in the thymus during development. However, whether strong TCR signals drive nTreg development in a polyclonal setting and the specific signaling pathways downstream of the TCR necessary for nTreg development remain elusive.

Regulatory T cells (Tregs), which are characterized by the expression of the transcription factor forkhead box P3 (FOXP3), are the main immune cells that induce tolerance and are regulators of immune homeostasis. Natural Treg cells (nTregs), described as CD4+CD25+FOXP3+, are generated in the thymus via activation and cytokine signaling. Transforming growth factor beta type 1 (TGF-β1) is pivotal to the generation of the nTreg lineage, its maintenance in the thymus, and to generating induced Treg cells (iTregs) in the periphery or in vitro arising from conventional T cells (Tconvs).

Abstract:
Abstract Naturally-occurring CD4+CD25+Foxp3+ regulatory T cells ("nTregs") are involved in shutting down immune responses after they have successfully eliminated invading organisms, and also in preventing autoimmunity. CD28 costimulation is essential for the development of nTregs in thymus. E3 ubiquitin ligase Cbl-b has been shown to regulate CD28 dependence of T cell activation. Here, we report that the loss of Cbl-b partially but significantly rescues the defective development of nTregs in CD28-/- mice. This partial rescue is likely to be independent of IL-2 because treating CD28-/- mice wit

Abstract Naturally arising CD4+CD25+ Tregs (nTregs) are essential for maintaining immune homeostasis and peripheral tolerance. The balance between nTregs and conventional T cells appears to play a significant role in immune regulation. The majority of nTregs are considered to recognize antigen peptides derived from self tissues and are predicted to receive continuous antigen stimulation, but regulation of Treg growth and survival against activation-induced cell death (AICD) in vivo is not well-understood.

Abstract The thymus maintains immunotolerance to self-antigen by deleting self-reactive T cells and generating nTregs. The thymus involutes with age, which is driven by the loss of FoxN1.

However, how the age-related loss of FoxN1 induced thymic involution impacts autoimmunity remains unclear. We used a FoxN1 cKO mouse model that mimics natural thymic involution.

Abstract Fms-like tyrosine kinase 3 ligand (FLT3L) plays a major role in dendritic cell (DC) biology. Deficiency of FLT3L causes a dramatic decrease in DC numbers, whereas increasing its availability (by repetitive injections for 7-10 days) leads to a 10-fold increase in DC numbers. In this study, we show that FLT3L treatment indirectly leads to an expansion of peripheral naturally occurring T regulatory cells (NTregs). The FLT3L-induced increase in NTregs was still observed in thymectomized mice, ruling out the role of the thymus in this mechanism. Instead, the increased number of NTregs was
