Recent studies on B-cell-induced CD4+Foxp3 regulatory T cells

Generation Phenotype Application Implication Reference
Splenic B2 and peritoneal B1a cell/monoclonal antibodies/CD4+CD25 T cell Treg-of-B2 and Treg-of-B1a, CD4+CD25+Foxp3 In vitro suppression assay Treg-of-B cells were generated in a cell–cell contact-dependent manner and had cell–cell contact-dependent inhibition 1
Splenic B cell/OVA peptide/DO11.10 CD4+CD25 T cell Treg-of-B, CD4+CD25+Foxp3 ICOS+CTLA4+PD1+LAG3+ Allergic asthma Treg-of-B cells may be involved in oral tolerance and had non-antigen-specific inhibition 2
Peyer’s patch B cell/OVA peptide/DO11.10 CD4+CD25 T cell Treg-of-B(P), CD4+CD25+Foxp3 Allergic asthma Treg-of-B(P) cells may be involved in oral tolerance 3
Peyer’s patch B cell/OVA peptide/DO11.10 CD4+CD25 T cell Treg-of-B(P), CD4+CD25+Foxp3LAG3+ Allergic asthma LAG3 and IL-10 play roles in the suppression of Treg-of-B(P) cells 4
Splenic B cell/monoclonal antibodies/CD4+CD25 T cell Treg-of-B, CD4+CD25+Foxp3LAG3+ Rheumatoid arthritis LAG3 and IL-10 play roles in the suppression of Treg-of-B cells 5
Splenic B cell/OVA peptide/DO11.10 CD4+CD25 T cell/long culture period Long-term Treg-of-B, CD4+CD25+Foxp3cMaf+ICOS+CTLA4+LAG3+PD1+ In vitro suppression assay CTLA4 and IL-10 play roles in the suppression of long-term Treg-of-B cells but not short-term Treg-of-B cells 6
Splenic B cell/monoclonal antibodies/CD4+CD25 T cell Treg-of-B, CD4+CD25+Foxp3ICOS+PD1+LAG3+ Inflammatory bowel disease IL-10 is not essential for the suppressive ability of Treg-of-B cells 7
Splenic B cell/OVA peptide/DO11.10 CD4+CD25 T cell T-of-B, CD4+CD25+ Foxp3CD62L+ Graft versus host disease B-T form an immunological synapse during induction 8
Splenic B cell/OVA peptide/DO11.10 CD4+CD25 T cell T-of-B, CD4+CD25+Foxp3CD62L+ In vitro suppression assay Additional CD28 signals decrease the suppressive ability of B-cell-induced T cells 9
