ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To explore the relationship between WT1-induced T-cell subsets and graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) after nonmyeloablative allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (NST).</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Peripheral blood mononucleated cells (PBMCs) from 19 patients who expressed WT1 and developed GVHD after NST were simulated by WT1126-134 peptide in vitro, and proportions of WT1-induced-T-cell subsets (Tc1, Tc2, Th1, Th2 cells) before and after transplant were detected by intracellular cytokine staining (ICCS) assay. WT1-specific CD8(+) CTLs of 14 patients with HLA-A*0201 were detected by HLA-A*0201/WT1 pentamer.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>(1) 17 of 19 patients developed GVHD, among whom proportions of Tc1 and Th1 cells, achieved peak value in 16 patients at occurrence of GVHD (P = 0.039); (2) The peak proportions of Tc1 and Th1 cells in patients with aGVHD above grade II were higher than those with grade I, but being no statistical difference (P = 0.900 and P = 0.140, respectively); (3) The peak proportion of Th1 cells (P = 0.004), but not Tc1 cells (P = 0.060) in patients with extensive cGVHD was significantly higher than that in patients with limited one; (4) Proportions of Tc1, Th1 and WT1(+)CD8(+)CTL in patients without GVHD were similar to those in patients with Grade I aGVHD, but lower than those in aGVHD above grade II.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>GVHD promotes the generation of WT1-induced GVL effect, and the intensity of the latter maybe correlated with the intensity of GVHD, especially cGVHD. Th1 cells play a more important role in the enhancement of WT1-induced GVL effect in extensive cGVHD patient than in limited cGVHD patients.</p>
