To determine the origin of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) that activate regulatory T cells in anterior chamber-associated immune deviation (ACAID), fluorescein-labeled PBMC were intravenously injected into mice before the mice received an intracameral injection of antigen. Six-24 hr after intracameral injection, fluorescein-labeled PBMC increased in the iris. Twenty-four-48 hr labeled cells decreased in the iris and increased in the thymus and spleen. The entry of the labeled PBMC into the anterior chamber and subsequent production of PBMC that transfer ACAID required the expression of CCR2 by the PBMC and the production of the chemokine CCL2 by the recipient of the PBMC. The results suggest that the intracameral injection of antigen induces i) the infiltration of F4/80 + PBMC into the AC, ii) where these PBMC are converted to a regulatory phenotype, and iii) recirculate to activate T cells that suppress cell-mediated immunity. |
