Gene expression of CD4+CD8+ Tfh cells in lesions of IgG4-related disease and CD4+CD8+ Tfh in tonsil.

ABSTRACT: To further know features of CD4+CD8+ Double positive (DP)-Tfh cells in respective lymphoid tissues, we subsequently investigated transcriptomes of DP-Tfh cells in submandibular gland lesions of IgG4-RD in comparison to those of DP-Tfh cells in tonsils. Results showed that DP-Tfh cells of IgG4-RD lesions were more apt to present CTL-related genes such as Eomes and granzymes than DP-Tfh cells in tonsils. It was also noted that the level of CD70 in DP-Tfh cells of IgG4-RD lesions was higher than that of tonsillar DP-Tfh cells. Genes related to Tfh cell function were seemed to be presented in DP-Tfh cells of tonsils compared to DP-Tfh cells of IgG4-RD lesions.
