Effect of IL-34 on T helper 17 cell proliferation and IL-17 secretion by peripheral blood mononuclear cells from rheumatoid arthritis patients

Abstract Interleukin (IL)-34 is a new pro-inflammatory cytokine with elevated expression in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients. Our previous study showed that the frequency of T helper 17 (Th17) cells was also elevated in RA patients. Our study aimed to determine the effects of IL-34 on the prolifer...

Our previous study showed that the frequency of T helper 17 (Th17) cells was also elevated in RA patients. Our study aimed to determine the effects of IL-34 on the proliferation, transcription factor expression and cytokine secretion of different subgroups of CD4 + T cells [Th1, Th2, Th17 and regulatory T (Treg) cells] in RA patients. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were isolated from the peripheral blood of 10 RA patients and stimulated with different concentrations of recombinant human (rh) IL-34 (0, 25, 50 and 100 ng/ml). Flow cytometry was used to determine the frequencies of the 4 subgroups of CD4 + T cells. Reverse transcription-PCR, western blotting and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays were used to determine the mRNA and protein expression levels of transcription factors and cytokines. As a result, the frequency of Th17 cells was obviously increased under IL-34 stimulation. Moreover, the expression of the transcription factor retinoic acid-related orphan receptor (ROR-γt) and secretion of IL-17 by PBMCs were increased by stimulation with IL-34. However, there were no effects of IL-34 on transcription factors or cytokine secretion in Th1, Th2 and Treg cells. In conclusion, IL-34 can improve the proliferation of Th17 cells and expression of IL-17 in RA patients.Xin LiYimeng LeiZiyu GaoBei ZhangLiping XiaJing LuHui ShenNature PortfolioarticleMedicineRScienceQENScientific Reports, Vol 10, Iss 1, Pp 1-8 (2020)
