| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Our purpose was to establish IL-27-Venus reporter mice, in which the development of IL-27-producing T cells (Tr27) was to be examined. The reporter mice functioned as designed and we finished backcrossing of the mice into C57BL/6 background.
We previously reported the development of Tr27 in malaria-infected mice. In our preliminary study, we identified IL-27-producing T cell population in the infected mice, albeit at a very low percentage. We thus need to examine the development of Tr27 and its condition by looking at the time course, with enough numbers of fully-backcrossed mice. Although IL-27-producing T cell population in Tuberculosis patients was reported, Tr27 has not been identified in BCG-infected mice. T cells stimulated in vitro by a conventional way did not exhibit IL-27-Venus signal, either. We are planning to further examine the development of Tr27 in various infection models as well as in autoimmune and in inflammatory disease models in fully-backcrossed mice.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
IL-27は免疫抑制作用を持つサイトカインである。IL-27は刺激を受けたマクロファージなどから産生されるとされていたが、我々はマラリア原虫感染マウスにおいてT細胞がIL-27を産生することを報告した。このことは、免疫抑制が生じるべき部位や時間経過を考えるとき、細胞の増殖や遊走の観点から興味深い知見である。また、IL-27の免疫抑制作用は、新規免疫抑制薬・免疫抑制療法の標的として有望であることに加え、新しいチェックポイント分子としての治療応用も注目されており、その作用の詳細の解析は、さまざまな免疫疾患や癌治療を考える上で重要なテーマである。
