Abstract:
Objective To explore the effect of recombinant human granulocyte colony stimulating factor (rhG-CSF) mobilization on TH17/Treg cells and its impact on suppressor of cytokine signaling-3 (SOCS3) gene expression in CD4+ T cells in donors' peripheral blood.Method Sixteen donors were injected subcutaneously with rhG-CSF 5 μg/kg every day for 5 consecutive days for peripheral blood stem cells mobilization.At the first 0,3,5 day,the mononuclear cclls (MNCs) in peripheral blood or graft and serum specimens were taken.The CD4 + T cells in MNCs were sorted using immuno-magnetic beads.The ratio of TH 17 and Treg cells in MNCs,cytokines concentrations of IL-17A,IL-21,ID23 and TGFβ1 in serum,and SODC3 gene expression in CD4+ T cells were detected by using flow cytometry,ELISA,and reverse transcription real-time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR),respectively.Results (1)The ratio of Th17 cells (CD3+ CD8 CD17+) and Treg cells (CD4+ CD25+ Foxp3+) in MNCs in peripheral blood and graft at the first 0,3 and 5 days after mobilization was (2.69 ± 0.81) %,(0.91 ± 0.33) %,(0.35 ± 0.12) %,(0.21 ± 0.05) %,and (0.56 ± 0.24) %,(0.72 ± 0.22%),(1.59 ± 0.54) %,(3.38 ± 0.52) %,respectively,showing a significant declining and increasing trend respectively (P<0.05); (2)The cytokine concentrations in serum at the first 0,3 and 5 days after mobilization were 7.33 ± 0.89,5.78 ± 1.03 and 3.32 ± 0.84 μg/L for IL-17A; 124.56 ± 15.18,117.12 ± 14.45 and 64.94 ± 11.25 μg/L for IL-21 ; 183.52 ± 59.35,280.49 ± 69.75 and 393.62 ± 57.25μg/L for TGF-β1 (P<0.01) ; and 45.89 ± 6.95,46.25 ± 7.44 and 47.45 ± 10.75 μg/L for IL-23,respectively.The IL-17A and IL-21 concentrations showed significant declining trend,contrarily TGF-β1 with an increasing trend,while IL-23 concentration had no change.After rhG-CSF mobilization,the SOCS3 gene expression in CD4 + T cells of peripheral blood and graft at the first 0,3,5 days was gradually increased.Conclusion rhG-CSF suppresses Th17 cells and promotes regulatory T cells generation,meanwhile decreases IL-17A and IL-21 and elevates serum TGF-β1 concentrations,and contributes to CD4 + T cells differentiation to Tregs,probably by elevating SOSC3 gene expression in CD4+ T cells.
