OBJECTIVES: To investigate the landscape of T-B cell interaction, immune receptor profiles and effects of different types of immune responses in the involved tissues of IgG4-RD.
METHODS: Single cell RNA sequencing, bulk sample RNA sequencing, immune receptor repertoire analysis (both BCR and TCR), multi-color flow cytometry, and in-vitro assays with model cells (e.g. EBV-immortalized B cells from IgG4-RD patient) and histologic methods were applied to investigate the immunopathological features of IgG4-RD from multiple aspects.
RESULTS: Ectopic germinal center formation was observed in IgG4-RD patients at advanced disease stage, and a large part of B cells in involved tissue were germinal center B cell-like. Germinal center reaction in IgG4-RD led to the irregularities of both TCR and BCR clones in the involved tissues, and limited clonal overlaps among different samples. Enhanced Th1- and Th2-type responses were observed in involved tissues of IgG4-RD and patients with both increased Th1- and Th2-type response related cell subsets possessed more severe inflammatory indices. Analyses to the origin of IGHG4 transcripts in IgG4-RD indicated that IgG4 could be switched from IgM directly, or from other IgG subclasses. In vitro assays with EBV-immortalized B cells, fibroblasts and epithelial cells revealed the effects of Th1-type and Th2-type responses on germinal center reaction, ectopic expression of MHC-II molecules, and formation of tertiary lymphoid structures.
CONCLUSIONS: Synergistic effects of Th1- and Th2-type responses were involved in the pathogenesis of IgG4-RD via their influences on both acute inflammatory processes and the chronicity and complexity of IgG4-RD.
