We have recently shown that tolerogenic administration of an artificial peptide (pConsensus) that is based on sequences within the VH regions of several murine anti-dsDNA Ig delays appearance of autoantibodies in female (New Zealand Black (NZB) x New Zealand White (NZW))F1 (NZB/W F1) mice and significantly prolongs their survival. The aim of this study was to characterize the T cell population(s) involved in pConsensus-induced down-regulation of autoimmune responses in tolerized NZB/W F1 mice. Using MHC class II dimers loaded with tolerogenic peptide, we found that pCons favored expansion of peptide-reactive CD4+CD25+ regulatory T cells (TR) that inhibited in vitro production of anti-dsDNA Ab-forming cells. Suppression by TR was abrogated by the presence in culture of Ab to glucocorticoid-induced TNFR family member 18 or to TGF
latency-associated protein. These findings suggest possible relevance of Ag specificity in the mechanism of TR-mediated immune tolerance to Ig-derived peptides in NZB/W F1 mice.
