and IL-2 Shape a Population of Regulatory Cells That Controls CD4+ T Cell Numbers1

Institut National de la Santé et de la Recherche Médicale Unité 345, Centre Hospitalo-Universitaire Necker, Paris, France
We show that the lymphoid hyperplasia observed in IL-2R
- and
IL-2-deficient mice is due to the lack of a population of regulatory
cells essential for CD4 T cell homeostasis. In chimeras reconstituted
with bone marrow cells from IL-2R
-deficient donors,
restitution of a population of CD25+CD4+ T
cells prevents the chaotic accumulation of lymphoid cells, and rescues
the mice from autoimmune disease and death. The reintroduction of
IL-2-producing cells in IL-2-deficient chimeras establishes a
population of CD25+CD4+ T cells, and restores
the peripheral lymphoid compartments to normal. The
CD25+CD4+ T cells regulated selectively the
number of naive CD4+ T cells transferred into T
cell-deficient hosts. The CD25+CD4+/naive CD4 T
cell ratio and the sequence of cell transfer determines the homeostatic
plateau of CD4+ T cells. Overall, our findings demonstrate
that IL-2R
is an absolute requirement for the development of the
regulatory CD25+CD4+ T cells that control
peripheral CD4 T cell homeostasis, while IL-2 is required for
establishing a sizeable population of these cells in the peripheral
pools.
