Immune Modulation of Platelet-Derived Mitochondria on Memory CD4<sup>+</sup> T Cells in Humans

CD4<sup>+</sup> T cells are one of the key immune cells contributing to the immunopathogenesis of type 1 diabetes (T1D). Previous studies have reported that platelet-derived mitochondria suppress the proliferation of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC). To further characterize the...

description CD4<sup>+</sup> T cells are one of the key immune cells contributing to the immunopathogenesis of type 1 diabetes (T1D). Previous studies have reported that platelet-derived mitochondria suppress the proliferation of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC). To further characterize the immune modulation of platelet-derived mitochondria, the purified CD4<sup>+</sup> T cells were treated, respectively, with platelet-derived mitochondria. The data demonstrated that MitoTracker Deep Red-labeled platelet-derived mitochondria could directly target CD4<sup>+</sup> T cells through C-X-C motif chemokine receptor 4 (CXCR4) and its ligand stromal cell-derived factor-1 (SDF-1), regulating the anti-CD3/CD28 bead-activated CD4<sup>+</sup> T cells. The result was an up-regulation of Naïve and central memory (T<sub>CM</sub>) CD4<sup>+</sup> T cells, the down-regulation of effector memory (T<sub>EM</sub>) CD4<sup>+</sup> T cells, and modulations of cytokine productions and gene expressions. Thus, platelet-derived mitochondria have a translational potential as novel immune modulators to treat T1D and other autoimmune diseases.
