Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Expression process of CD69 and CD103, which are known as skin-resident memory T cell markers, were investigated. When circulating T cells, which do not express CD69 or CD103, were co-cultured with keratinocyte sheets or fibroblast sheet, it turned out that T cells express CD69 and CD103 when co-cultured with keratinocytes (epidermal condition) and express CD69 when co-cultured with fibroblasts (dermal condition). Thus, it was assumed that T cells express CD69 when they enter into dermis and further express CD103 after entering into epidermis. In human T-cell trafficking mouse model, when circulating T cells were eliminated by alemtuzumab, CD69+CD103+ T cells and CD69+CD103- T cells were left intact in the grafted skin. This result indicates that these two fractions function as resident memory T cells in human skin.
