The transcriptional events that control T cell tolerance to peripheral self Ags are still unknown. In this study, we analyzed the regulation of AP-1- and NF-{kappa}B-mediated transcription during in vivo induction of tolerance to a self Ag expressed exclusively on hepatocytes. Naive CD8+Désiré (Des)+ T cells isolated from the Des TCR-transgenic mice that are specific for the H-2Kb class I Ag were transferred into Alb-Kb-transgenic mice that express the H-2Kb Ag on hepatocytes only. Tolerance develops in these mice. We found that the self-reactive CD8+Des+ T cells were transiently activated, then became unresponsive and were further deleted. In contrast to CD8+Des+ T cells activated in vivo with APCs, which express high AP-1 and high NF-{kappa}B transcriptional activity, the unresponsive CD8+Des+ T cells expressed no AP-1 and only weak NF-{kappa}B transcriptional activity. The differences in NF-{kappa}B transcriptional activity correlated with the generation of distinct NF-{kappa}B complexes. Indeed, in vivo primed T cells predominantly express p50/p50 and p65/p50 dimers, whereas these p50-containing complexes are barely detectable in tolerant T cells that express p65- and c-Rel-containing complexes. These observations suggest that fine regulation of NF-{kappa}B complex formation may determine T cell fate.
