Аннотация
BACKGROUND: Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a chronic, immune-mediated, connective tissue disease causing microvascular abnormalities and fibrosis. The cytoplasmic calcium influx kinetics in T lymphocytes governs lymphocyte activation in this inflammatory process. The inhibition of Kv1.3 and IKCa1 potassium channels reduces calcium influx.
METHODS: This study aimed to analyze cytoplasmic calcium influx kinetics following activation in Th1, Th2, and CD8 cells in peripheral blood of 12 healthy individuals and 16 patients with systemic sclerosis using flow cytometry. We also evaluated the effect of the specific inhibition of the Kv1.3 and IKCa1 potassium channels.
RESULTS: We observed higher levels of activation in CD8 compared with Th1 cells in SSc. However, the activation of CD8 cells was lower in SSc compared to healthy controls. Moreover, activation of Th1 lymphocytes was slower in SSc than in healthy controls. The inhibition of IKCa1 channels decreased the activation of Th1 cells, while the inhibition of Kv1.3 channels modified the dynamics of activation of Th1 and Th2 lymphocytes in SSc.
CONCLUSION: Th1 and CD8 cells demonstrate specific activation dynamics and sensitivity to potassium channel inhibition in SSc, distinguishing this condition both from healthy controls and other autoimmune diseases.
