| Zusammenfassung: | (c) 2010 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved. Lupus-like renal disease in DBA/2-into-F1 (DBA --> F1) mice is driven by donor CD4 T cells and is more severe in females. Donor CD8 T cells have no known role. As expected, we observed that females receiving unfractionated DBA splenocytes (CD8 intact --> F1) exhibited greater clinical and histological severities of renal disease at 13 weeks compared to males. Surprisingly, sex-based differences in renal disease severity were lost in CD8 depleted --> F1 mice due to an improvement in females and a worsening in males. CD8 intact --> F1 female mice exhibited significantly greater donor and host effector (CD44(hi), CD62L(lo)) CD4 T cells and ICOS(hi) CD4 T follicular helper cells than males. CD8 depleted --> F1 female mice exhibited a reduction in the absolute numbers of host, but not donor CD4 Tfh cells and lost the significant increase in host CD4 effector cells vs. males. Greater female IL-21 expression, a product of Tfh cells, was seen in CD8 intact --> F1 and although reduced was still greater than male CD8 depleted --> F1 mice. Thus, donor CD8 T cells have a critical role in mediating sex-based differences in lupus renal disease severity possibly through greater host ICOS(hi) CD4 T cell involvement |
