摘要:: We previously reported that rhIL-4 induced apoptosis and rhIL-6 mediated protection of human mast cells derived from cord blood mononuclear cells. Based on the result, we attempted to obtain the phenotypes and differentiation of CD3+ cells from cord blood by investigating their cell surface markers in the presence of rhSCF plus rhIL-4. The effect of co-cultured CD3+ cells on fetal liver mast cells (FLMCs) was also determined. Phenotypes from cord blood-derived cells were analyzed by flow cytometry and cell numbers were determined. Fetal liver mast cells were cultured with cord blood-derived cells (mainly CD3+) in the presence of rhSCF and/or rhIL-4 and were analyzed to determine cell number and expression of Kit+ and FcepsilonR1. The percentage of CD3+ cells from cord blood-derived cells on day 0 was about 41 +/- 13.5%, following monocytes and granulocytes. CD3+ cells increased in number (1.5-fold) and purity (90%), whereas other cell types did not survive. More than 60% of CD3+ cells from cord blood at day 0 were CD4(-)CD8-. These double-negative cells dramatically decreased by 1 week of culture, while CD4+CD8+ cells increased in number and purity through 3 weeks of culture, and then decreased as greater numbers of single-positive T cells emerged. We also found that FcepsilonR expression on FLMC increased in the presence of rhIL-4, but was not affected by the T cells that developed from cord blood mononuclear cells. The results indicate that IL-4, a Th2 type cytokine, together with rhSCF, can induce T cell proliferations, differentiation, and maturation from cord blood progenitor cells.
