Maternal immune tolerance requires the action of regulatory T cells at the feto-maternal interface.
Their de novo differentiation is influenced by cellular interactions and the local cytokine milieu.
Trophoblast-derived medium size extracellular vesicles (TEVs) bind to peripheral T lymphocytes and have an effect on T cell function. We assume that TEVs regulate the local T cell differentiation through the regulation of local cytokine effects.
Cytokine secretion and IL6-Rα expression of pregnants’ lymphocytes were investigated in BeWo choriocarcinoma cell - lymphocyte co-culture model system. We demonstrated that BeWolymphocyte interaction induced IL-6 production and down-regulation of IL-6Rα on CD4+ T cells.
BeWo derived medium size extracellular vesicles (EVs) caused a typical shift in the cytokine production of CD4+ lymphocytes: this EV binding induced IL-10 production but neither IL-17 nor IFNα could be detected. We concluded that BeWo derived EVs contribute to the development and maintenance of de novo regulatory T lymphocyte differentiation, through the regulation of both
local cytokine production and IL-6 sensitivity of the lymphocytes.
