IFN-gamma and IL-4 regulate the growth and differentiation of CD8+ T cells into subpopulations with distinct cytokine profiles

In this study, we have investigated the effects of IL-4 and IFN-gamma on the growth and differentiation of CD8+ T cells in vitro. Rat splenic CD8+ T cells expressed higher levels of IL-4, IL-5, IL-10, and IFN- gamma mRNA, as measured by reverse-transcription PCR, than CD4+ T cells from the same source, whereas CD4+ T cells expressed more IL-2 and IL-6 mRNA. CD8+ T cells were cultured for 6 days with PMA, ionomycin, and IL- 2, and their ability to proliferate, to express mRNA for IL-2, IL-4, IL- 5, IL-6, IL-10, and IFN-gamma, and to secrete IFN-gamma and IL-2 was determined. IL-4 could act as a growth factor for CD8+ T cells during primary stimulation, but inhibited proliferation of the restimulated 6- day-cultured CD8+ T cells. The highest levels of mRNA for IL-2 and IL-6 were detected in control cultures in which little mRNA for IL-4, IL-5, or IL-10 was detected. Addition of IL-4 to the primary cultures reduced the capacity of the restimulated cells to express mRNA for IL-2, and for IL-6, but enhanced expression of mRNA for IL-4 and IL-5. Addition of IFN-gamma to the cultures, alone or in conjunction with IL-4, or addition of IFN-gamma-specific neutralizing Ab, had little effect. However, in conjunction with IL-4, anti-IFN-gamma enhanced expression of mRNA for IFN-gamma, and for IL-10. These results indicate that IL-4 and IFN-gamma regulate the differentiation of CD8+ T cells and the growth of cytotoxic and other types of CD8+ T cells, and suggest pathways through which CD8+ T cells may interact with other immune cells.
