malfunction | Tresp cells from patients with multiple sclerosis resist Treg suppression via a mechanism that involves GzmB | Homo sapiens |
physiological function | in contrast to the intracellular GzmB that mediates apoptosis, GzmB can be found in extracellular fluids where it is hypothesized to regulate other cellular processes. GzmB-induced apoptosis involves the granule-mediated delivery of GzmB into the cytoplasm of target cells. Extracellular enzyme strongly inhibits Treg suppression, without altering Treg viability, nonapoptotic and extracellular activity of granzyme B mediates resistance to regulatory T cell suppression by HLA-DR-CD25hiCD127lo tregs in multiple sclerosis and in response to interleukin-6. The suppression-abrogating cytokine interleukin-6 augments GzmB expression by human CD4 T cells, and it inhibits Treg suppression via this nonapoptotic GzmB-mediated mechanism. DR2CD127lo Tregs stimulated in the presence of extracellular GzmB exhibit reduced expression of the suppression-associated molecules CD39 and PD-L1 | Homo sapiens |
