目的: 研究吲哚胺2,3双加氧酶(indoleamine 2,3dioxygenase,IDO)在慢性粒细胞性白血病源性树突状细胞(dendritic cells derived from chronic myeloid leukemia,CMLDCs)中的表达,及抑制IDO活性对CMLDCs免疫刺激功能的影响。方法: RTPCR检测17例患者CMLDCs的IDO mRNA的表达情况,流式细胞仪检测CMLDCs免疫表型。在有或无IDO抑制剂1甲基色氨酸(1methyltroptophan,1MT)作用下,分别以不成熟CMLDCs(imDCs)和成熟CMLDCs(mDCs)为刺激细胞,完全缓解期(complete remission,CR)CML患者外周T淋巴细胞为反应细胞建立混合淋巴细胞反应体系,ELISA法检测CMLDCs上清液IL12水平,MTT法检测CMLDCs刺激自体T淋巴细胞的增殖能力。结果: 随着CMLDCs的诱导分化和成熟,IDO mRNA表达逐渐上调;经TNFα诱导的DCs免疫表型除CD1a外,CD80、CD86、CD83、HLADR的表达均明显上调(P<005),且上述分子的表达不受1MT的影响。用1MT抑制IDO活性后的imDCs和mDCs,其IL12水平均明显增加(P<005,P<001),且激发自体T淋巴细胞增殖的能力也明显增强(P<0.05,P<0.01)。结论: 抑制IDO活性可提高CMLDCs的IL12分泌水平,增强其对自体T细胞增殖的刺激能力,IDO对DCs的负性调节为白血病生物治疗提供了新的思路。

Objective:To investigate the expression of indoleamine 2,3dioxygenase (IDO) in dendritic cells derived from chronic myeloid leukemia(CMLDCs)and to study the influence of IDO inhibition on the function of CMLDCs. Methods: The expression of IDO mRNA in dendritic cells derived from 17 patients with chronic myeloid leukemia was detected by RTPCR. The phenotypes of CMLDCs were analyzed by flow cytometry. The immature CMLDCs (imDCs) and the mature CMLDCs (mDCs) were used as stimulating cells and autologous Tlymphocytes were used as reactive cells for a mixed lymphocyte reaction system. IL12 concentration was detected by ELISA kit; mix lymphocyte reaction was analyzed by MTT assay. Results: It was demonstrated that DCs derived from bone marrow mononuclear cells of CML displayed a typical morphology of DCs. Expressions of costimulatory molecules on DCs, such as CD80, CD86, CD83 and HLADR, except for CD1a, were obviously higher after maturation (P<0.05) and were not influenced by 1Methyltroptophan(1MT, an inhibitor of IDO). Inhibition IDO activity in mature and immature DCs by 1MT significantly enhanced their abilities to activate T cells proliferation and to produce IL12 (P<0.05,P<0.01).Conclusion: Inhibition of IDO activity in CMLDCs can increase their abilities to produce IL12 and activate autologous T cells. Negative regulation of DCs by IDO paves a way for DCbased leukemia immunotherapy.
