PD1 completely suppresses the transcriptional response induced by the T cell receptor


ABSTRACT: Functional impairment of the immune response to chronic viral infections and malignancies is characterised by exhausted T cells, which do not respond to antigen. The cell surface receptor PD1 has been implicated in the maintenance of T cell exhaustion and is an attractive target for immunomodulatory approaches to the treatment of such conditions. However, the mechanisms by which PD1 signalling causes exhaustion and the exact response of T cells to PD1 activation are not clear although it has been suggested that PD1 up regulates a number of anti-proliferative factors. Here we perform cytokine and transcriptional profiling of uninfected primary human T cells to characterise these events. We find that PD1 completely prevents cytokine and transcrip- tional changes induced by CD3/28 stimulation. We do not see any factors specifically induced by PD1, including BATF or IL10 which have previously been linked to PD1 activity. Together with the work of others this confirms that PD1 is the sole effector of T cell exhaustion and that infection is responsible for BATF and IL10 up regulation. As a consequence future therapeutic strategies will be confined to the inhibition of PD1 and not a downstream effector.
