T Cell-Intrinsic Requirement for NF-{kappa}B Induction in Postdifferentiation IFN-{gamma} Production and Clonal Expansion in a Th1 Response1

NF-{kappa}B/Rel transcription factors are linked to innate immune responses and APC activation. Whether and how the induction of NF-{kappa}B signaling in normal CD4+ T cells regulates effector function are not well-understood. The liberation of NF-{kappa}B dimers from inhibitors of {kappa}B (I{kappa}Bs) constitutes a central checkpoint for physiologic regulation of most forms of NF-{kappa}B. To investigate the role of NF-{kappa}B induction in effector T cell responses, we targeted inhibition of the NF-{kappa}B/Rel pathway specifically to T cells. The Th1 response in vivo is dramatically weakened when T cells defective in their NF-{kappa}B induction (referred to as I{kappa}B{alpha}({Delta}N) transgenic cells) are activated by a normal APC population. Analyses in vivo, and IL-12-supplemented T cell cultures in vitro, reveal that the mechanism underlying this T cell-intrinsic requirement for NF-{kappa}B involves activation of the IFN-{gamma} gene in addition to clonal expansion efficiency. The role of NF-{kappa}B in IFN-{gamma} gene expression includes a modest decrease in Stat4 activation, T box expressed in T cell levels, and differentiation efficiency along with a more prominent postdifferentiation step. Further, induced expression of Bcl-3, a trans-activating I{kappa}B-like protein, is decreased in T cells as a consequence of NF-{kappa}B inhibition. Together, these findings indicate that NF-{kappa}B induction in T cells regulates efficient clonal expansion, Th1 differentiation, and IFN-{gamma} production by Th1 lymphocytes at a control point downstream from differentiation.
