AbstractCytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) may undergo massive expansion upon appropriate antigenic stimulation. Homeostasis is maintained by a subsequent "contraction" of these cells. Activation-induced cell death (AICD) and programmed cell death prevent the untoward side effects, arising from excessive numbers and prolonged persistence of activated CTL, that occur upon uncontrolled and/or continued expansion. However, effector cell persistence has been identified as a hallmark of successful T-cell-mediated adoptive immunotherapy. Thus, prevention of AICD may be critical to achieve more successful clinical results. We have previously shown that treatment with the c-Jun NH(2)-terminal kinase (JNK) inhibitor SP600125 protects human melanoma epitope Mart-1(27-35)-reactive CTL from apoptotic death upon their reencounter with cognate antigen. However, inhibition of JNK also interferes with the functional ability of the CTL to secrete IFN-gamma. Here, we show that reactive oxygen species (ROS) inhibitors, such as the superoxide dismutase mimetic Mn (III) tetrakis (5, 10, 15, 20-benzoic acid) porphyrin (MnTBAP), efficiently protected Mart-1(27-35)-reactive primary CTL from AICD without impairing their functional capability. MnTBAP prevented the increase in intracellular ROS, mitochondrial membrane collapse, and DNA fragmentation observed in control-treated cells upon cognate antigen encounter. Furthermore, the mechanism of AICD prevention in primary CTL included blockade of JNK activation. Finally, tumor-reactive in vitro expanded tumor infiltrating lymphocytes, which are used clinically in cancer immunotherapy, also benefit from MnTBAP-mediated antioxidant treatment. Thus, modulation of the redox pathway might improve CTL persistence and lead to better clinical results for T cell-based immunotherapies |
