Subpopulation Composition and Activation of T Lymphocytes during Coculturing with Mesenchymal Stromal Cells in Medium with Different O2 Content

Bulletin of Experimental Biology and Medicine Aims and scope

The concentration of O2 during coculturing practically did not affect the subpopulation composition of T lymphocytes (CD3+/CD4+, CD3+/CD8+, CD3+/CD16+/CD56+ T cells) under conditions of PHA-induced activation. Coculturing with mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) led to a significant decrease in the ratio of lymphocytes carrying activation markers (CD3+/CD25+ and CD3+/HLA-DR+) and increase in the number of CD3+/CD16+/CD56+ T cells. The percent of activated HLA-DR+ T cells in a heterotypic culture with MSC at 5% O2 was much lower than that observed under normal conditions of culturing (20% O2). Our results suggest that antigen presentation by T lymphocytes due to HLA-DR expression can be reduced in the target tissues at low concentration of O2, while the interaction between allogeneic MSC probably contributes to more significant inhibition of the immune response.
