Resolution of deep venous thrombosis involves coordinated inflammatory processes. T cells regulate inflammation in vivo and modulate vascular remodeling in other settings, but their role in venous thrombus resolution remains undefined. To determine the role of T cells in venous thrombus resolution in vivo, stasis induced thrombi were created by vena cava ligation in outbred CD-1 mice. CD4 and CD8 positive T cells, as determined by flow cytometry, were present in thrombi both during thrombus formation and resolution. Depletion of the CD4 and CD8 positive T cells by antibody treatment selectively impaired thrombus resolution compared to animals treated with isotype control antibodies, without an effect on venous thrombus formation. Quantitation of intra-thrombus macrophage numbers, fibrinolytic marker expression, and gelatinolytic activity by zymography revealed that T cell depletion decreased the number of macrophages, reduced the expression of fibrinolytic marker urokinase plasminogen activator (uPA), and decreased the activity of matrix metalloprotinease-9 (MMP-9). These data implicate CD4 and CD8 positive T cells in functionally contributing to venous thrombus resolution, thus representing a potential therapeutic target, but also underscoring potential risks involved in T cell depletion used clinically for solid organ and hematopoietic transplantation procedures. |
