Abstract  

Objective: To explore the association between T-cell receptor beta variable (TCR BV) complementarity determining region 3 (CDR3) spectratyping and CMV activation in the recipients of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Methods: Fluorescence quantitative PCR melting curve analysis was used to sequence 24 TCR BV families in 7 HSCT recipients and 3 healthy controls. CMV-pp65 antigenemia was measured by immunohistochemical staining. Plasma IgM specific for CMV was identified using ELISA. Relationship between TCR BV families and CMV activation was statistically analyzed.Results: Twenty-four TCR BV families were expressed in 3 healthy controls, while TCR BV CDR3 sequencing results in 7 recipients turned out to be BV9, BV11, BV17, BV20 and so on. Amino acid sequence features were as follows:TCR BV9 contained "QVRGGTDTQ", TCR BV11 contained "VATDEQ" and "LGDEQ", TCR BV17 contained "IGQGNTEA", and TCR BV20 contained "VGLAANEQ". Five recipients suffered from pp65 antigenemia in 3 month after transplantation, and pp65-positive cells ranged from 2 to 15 per 5×104 white blood cells. Three recipients were CMV-IgM positive. No significant differences were found in TCR BV families between pp65-positive recipients and pp65-negative recipients (all P>0.05). But there was statistically significant difference in frequency of TCR BV11 between CMV-IgM negative recipients and CMV-IgM positive recipients (P<0.05).Conclusion: T cell immune response was characterized by special TCR BV CDR3 spectratyping in HSCT recipients, and TCR BV11 expression may be associated with CMV activation.

异基因造血干细胞移植受者T细胞受体β链CDR3谱型表达与巨细胞病毒激活

目的:探讨T细胞受体(TCR)β链可变区域(BV)的互补决定区(CDR3)谱型表达与异基因造血干细胞移植(HSCT)受者CMV激活的关系。方法:采用荧光定量PCR熔解曲线技术,扩增测序7例HSCT受者和3名健康对照者外周血单个核细胞的TCR BV家族CDR3谱型;采用免疫组织化学法检测外周血白细胞中的CMV-pp65抗原;应用ELISA法检测HSCT受者血清中的CMV-IgM。分析TCR BV家族CDR3表达与CMV激活的相关性。结果:3名健康对照者24个TCR BV家族均表达。7例HSCT受者术后TCR BV家族CDR3测序结果显示为BV9、BV11、BV17、BV20等BV家族序列;TCR BV9含“QVRGGTDTQ”,TCR BV11含“VATDEQ”和“LGDEQ”,TCR BV17含“IGQGNTEA”,TCR BV20含“VGLAANEQ”等共有氨基酸序列。抗原检测结果显示:术后3个月7例受者中有5例受者抗原血症阳性,CMV-pp65阳性细胞数为(2~15)个/5×104白细胞。抗体检测结果显示:术后3个月7例受者中3例受者CMV-IgM阳性。TCR BV家族CDR3的表达在CMV抗原血症阳性受者与抗原血症阴性受者之间差异无统计学意义(均P>0.05);但TCR BV11家族的表达在CMV-IgM阳性受者与CMV-IgM阴性受者之间差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。结论:HSCT受者在T细胞免疫应答中有特定的TCR BV家族CDR3谱型,其中TCR BV11的表达可能与CMV激活有关。
