BPZE1 is a live attenuated pertussis vaccine that successfully completed a phase 1 safety trial. This article describes the induction of unconventional suppressor T cells-producing ADO by MDDCs exposed to BPZE1 (BPZE1-DC) through distinct ectoenzymatic pathways that limit the damaging effect of inflammation. BPZE1-DC induces CD4+ and CD8+ T lymphocytes to express 2 sets of ectoenzymes generating ADO: 1 set is part of the conventional CD39/CD73 pathway, which uses ATP as substrate, whereas the other is part of the CD38/CD203a/CD73 pathway and metabolizes NAD+. The contribution of the ADO-generating ectoen-zymes in the regulatory response was shown by: 1) selective inhibition of the enzymatic activities of CD39, CD73, and CD38; 2) the ability of suppressor T cells to convert exogenously added ATP and NAD+ to ADO; and 3) a positive correlation between ectoenzyme expres-sion, ADO levels, and suppression abilities. Thus, T lymphocytes activated by BPZE1-DC shift to a sup-pressor stage, through the expression of ectoenzyme networks, and are able to convert extracellular nucleo-tides into ADO, which may explain the potent anti-inflammatory properties of BPZE1 observed in several murine models

Abstract
BPZE1 is a live attenuated pertussis vaccine that successfully completed a phase 1 safety trial. This article describes the induction of unconventional suppressor T cells-producing ADO by MDDCs exposed to BPZE1 (BPZE1-DC) through distinct ectoenzymatic pathways that limit the damaging effect of inflammation. BPZE1-DC induces CD4+ and CD8+ T lymphocytes to express 2 sets of ectoenzymes generating ADO: 1 set is part of the conventional CD39/CD73 pathway, which uses ATP as substrate, whereas the other is part of the CD38/CD203a/CD73 pathway and metabolizes NAD+. The contribution of the ADO-generating ectoen-zymes in the regulatory response was shown by: 1) selective inhibition of the enzymatic activities of CD39, CD73, and CD38; 2) the ability of suppressor T cells to convert exogenously added ATP and NAD+ to ADO; and 3) a positive correlation between ectoenzyme expres-sion, ADO levels, and suppression abilities. Thus, T lymphocytes activated by BPZE1-DC shift to a sup-pressor stage, through the expression of ectoenzyme networks, and are able to convert extracellular nucleo-tides into ADO, which may explain the potent anti-inflammatory properties of BPZE1 observed in several murine modelsFile | Dimensione | Formato | |
