Conventional B-2 cells have been shown to execute immune modulation through induction of Treg cells. The B-1 cell, belongs to another subset of B cell population, is specific and functionally important subset which exert their regulatory role through the production of IL-10. IL-10 has been correlated with the induction of Tr1 or Tr1-like cells, however, whether IL-10 producing B-1 cells are able to induce the generation of Treg cells especially the Tr1 lineage remain poorly understood. In this study, we aimed to study the effect of B-1 and B-2 cells on the inducting ability of Treg cells. Moreover, the properties as well as the effector function of B-1 and B-2 cell-induced Treg cells will be clarified. Methods: To induce Treg cells, B-1 cells and B-2 cells were isolated and co-cultured with naive CD4+CD25- T cells under OVA323-339 pulsed-APCs or anti-CD3/CD28 antibodies stimulation. After 3 days, CD4+ T cells in the co-cultures were purified and their suppressive function was examined. The requirement of IL-10 during the induction or suppression process was investigated using IL-10 knockout mice, and the Foxp3-GFP × DO11.10 mice was used to trace the Foxp3 expression of induced Treg cells. Results: In our two induction systems, we found that B-1 and B-2 cells were both able to convert naive T cells into Treg cell population, which we called “Treg-of-B1 cells” and “Treg-of-B2 cells”. More importantly, dissimilar to nTreg cells, we indentified Treg-of-B cells did not necessarily express Foxp3 and acquired unique surface molecule expression as well as cytokine profile. Finally, we showed that the suppressive function of Treg-of-B2 cells required cell-cell interaction whereas Treg-of-B1 cells mainly relied on IL-10-independent but soluble factors mediated suppression. Conclusions: Our results supported the idea that B-1 and B-2 cells might modulate immune responses via the induction of Treg cells. Also, we further clarified that IL-10 producing B-1 cells do not induce Tr1 cells via IL-10 but to induce Treg-of-B1 cells thorough IL-10-independent mechanism. Moreover, we demonstrated that Treg-of-B1 and Treg-of-B2 cells were two unique Treg populations and they interacted with CD4+ T cells through distinct mechanisms. Taken together, these findings might help us in further understanding the role of B-1 and B-2 cells in immune regulation. |
