BACKGROUND & AIMS: Mice that express a dominant-negative form of transforming growth factor-beta receptor restricted to T cells (dnTGF-betaRII) develop antimitochondrial antibodies and liver inflammation similar to human primary biliary cirrhosis.
METHODS: To address the role of B cells in this model of primary biliary cirrhosis, we bred B cell-deficient mice (Igmu(-/-)) with dnTGF-betaRII mice, creating Igmu(-/-)dnTGF-betaRII mice, and compared the resulting disease phenotype with that of dnTGF-betaRII mice (controls). We also performed adoptive transfer of dnTGF-betaRII CD8(+) splenocytes, with or without B cells, to 8-week-old female Rag-1(-/-) mice to assess the role of B cells in the inflammatory response.
RESULTS: The B cell-deficient Igmu(-/-)dnTGF-betaRII mice unexpectedly developed a more severe form of cholangitis than controls (dnTGF-betaRII mice) and had a significantly greater frequency of activated CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells in the liver. They also had reduced frequency of Foxp3(+) regulatory T cells in the hepatic CD4(+) T-cell population and natural killer (NK) T cells (NK1.1(+) CD3(+)) in hepatic inflammatory cell infiltrates. The Igmu(-/-)dnTGF-betaRII mice had increased levels of proinflammatory cytokines (tumor necrosis factor-alpha and interleukin-6) and developed a more severe form of colitis than controls. Adoptive transfer of CD8(+) splenocytes from dnTGF-betaRII mice and peritoneal cavity-derived, but not spleen-derived, CD19(+) B cells into Rag-1(-/-) mice resulted in decreased amounts of liver inflammation and bile duct damage, compared with Rag-1(-/-) mice in which only CD8(+) splenocytes were transferred.
CONCLUSION: B cells have a suppressive effect on the inflammatory response in the dnTGF-betaRII model of primary biliary cirrhosis.
