摘要
目的研究人巨细胞病毒(hCMV)结构蛋白pp65衍生抗原肽(pp65495503,NLV)特异性CD8+T细胞的功能特性。方法将HLAA2NLV四聚体染色与细胞内细胞因子或穿孔素染色相结合,以流式细胞仪直接分析NLV特异性CD8+T细胞内穿孔素的表达水平,或者在NLV抗原肽刺激6h后分析γ干扰素(IFNγ)的表达水平。结果NLV抗原肽能诱导hCMV特异性CD8+T细胞分泌IFNγ,不同供者特异性CD8+T细胞产生IFNγ的比率存在较大差异(55.69±17.64)%,当NLV抗原肽质量浓度为10μgmL时IFNγ阳性细胞百分率最高;未经刺激的特异性CD8+T细胞内表达较高水平的穿孔素(53.90±16.41)%。结论识别单一表位的hCMV特异性CD8+T细胞合成IFNγ和穿孔素的能力存在多样性。
Objective To investigate the functional characteristics of CD8^+ T cells specific to human cytomegalovims (hCMV) structural protein pp65-derived peptide antigen (pp65495-503, NLV). Methods Perforin expression without stimulation was analyzed with flow cytometry by using HLA-A2/NLV tetramer staining together with intracellular staining, while γ-interferon (IFN-γ) expression was evaluated by using tetramer staining in combination with intracellular cytokine staining after stimulation with NLV peptide for 6 h. Results IFN-γ was expressed in hCMV-specific CD8^+ T cells after induction of the NLV peptide, and the expression levels of IFN-γ in different donors were highly variable [ (55.69±17.64)% ]. The optimal concentration of the NLV peptide was 10μg/mL. Moreover, perforin was expressed at high level [ (53.90 ±16.41 ) % ] within unstimulated antigen-specific CD8^+ T cells. Conclusion The hCMV-specific CD8^+ T cells recognizing single epitope are heterogeneous in synthesizing IFN-γ and perforin.
