Type 1 (T1) T-cell cytokines play a major role in this antileukemic immune effect. Studies in cancer patients have demonstrated a decreased T1 cytokine production, measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), in cultures of peripheral blood mononuclear cells. This observation of malignancy-related suppressed T1 cytokines also occurs in untreated chronic-phase (CP) CML, raising the question of the influence of different CML treatment regimens on this immunosuppression. Intracellular flow cytometry (ICF) has facilitated the evaluation of cytokines on a single-cell level. This study analyzed T1 (interferon-gamma) cytokine production in purified peripheral blood T cells by ICF, comparing different therapy approaches for CML. Twenty-one newly diagnosed CP CML patients were compared with 24 patients treated with interferon-alpha (IFN-alpha) and to 30 allogeneic bone marrow transplant (BMT) recipients (BCR-ABL negative by reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction, and free of, or having only limited graft-versus-host disease at the time of study). Thirty-seven healthy controls were included. Our results showed a significantly decreased T-cell IFN-gamma synthesis in CP CML patients in relation to healthy controls (P = 0.0007). Treatment with IFN-alpha resulted in a shift from immunosuppression--documented for the group of untreated patients--to immunopotentiation, with an increase of T-cell IFN-gamma production (P = 0.0266). Notably, BMT enhanced IFN-gamma production of T cells to a level not only exceeding untreated patients (P < 0.0001) but also healthy volunteers (P < 0.0001). The observation of T1 cytokine up-regulation with IFN-alpha therapy indicates that enhanced T-cell function may be achievable in patients with CML, even in the absence of an allo-response.</p>","PeriodicalId":79485,"journal":{"name":"Cytokines, cellular & molecular therapy","volume":"7 2","pages":"75-82"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/13684730412331302063","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"22264742","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The important role of T cells and T-cell cytokines in the long-term control of CML is well established, for example in allogeneic stem-cell graft recipients. This study examined whether or not molecularly targeted therapy with imatinib, an inhibitor of the BCR-ABL tyrosine kinase, improved endogenous T-cell function in patients resistant to or intolerant of previous IFN-alpha therapy. Intracellular cytokine staining and detection by flow cytometry was used to analyze the expression of the T1 cytokine IFN-gamma in T cells. To secure independence from changes in white blood cell counts during treatment, a constant number of T cells was purified from the peripheral blood before analysis of the proportion of IFN-gamma synthesizing T cells. Twenty-nine patients with CML were tested before and after a median follow-up of 3 month on imatinib. In addition, late follow-up (past the median time to best cytogenetic response) of 15 patients were obtained Twenty-nine age- and gender-matched individuals were used as healthy controls. The frequency of IFN-gamma producing T cells in CML patients resistant to or intolerant to previous IFN-alpha therapy was lower than in healthy individuals (p=0.0181, Mann-Whitney test). Imatinib therapy led to a significant increase over pre-treatment values (p<0.0001, Mann-Whitney test). Late follow-up indicated that the increase was sustained in patients not in major cytogenetic response. In contrast, in major responders levels returned towards values comparable to healthy individuals. In conclusion, treatment with imatinib achieves a significant increase in Type 1 (IFN-gamma) cytokine-producing T cells in patients with CML.
