T cells mediate organ injury and repair. A proportion of unconventional kidney T cells called double-negative (DN) T cells (TCR+ CD4− CD8−), with anti-inflammatory properties, were previously demonstrated to protect from early injury in moderate experimental acute kidney injury (AKI). However, their role in repair after AKI has not been studied. We hypothesized that DN T cells mediate repair after severe AKI. C57B6 mice underwent severe (40 min) unilateral ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI). Kidney DN T cells were studied by flow cytometry and compared with gold-standard anti-inflammatory CD4+ regulatory T cells (Tregs). In vitro effects of DN T cells and Tregs on renal tubular epithelial cell (RTEC) repair after injury were quantified with live-cell analysis. DN T cells, Tregs, CD4, or vehicle were adoptively transferred after severe AKI. Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) was measured using fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC)-sinistrin. Fibrosis was assessed with Masson's trichrome staining. Profibrotic genes were measured with qRT-PCR. Percentages and the numbers of DN T cells substantially decreased during repair phase after severe AKI, as well as their activation and proliferation. Both DN T cells and Tregs accelerated RTEC cell repair in vitro. Post-AKI transfer of DN T cells reduced kidney fibrosis and improved GFR, as did Treg transfer. DN T cell transfer lowered transforming growth factor (TGF)β1 and α-smooth muscle actin (αSMA) expression. DN T cells reduced effector-memory CD4+ T cells and IL-17 expression. DN T cells undergo quantitative and phenotypical changes after severe AKI, accelerate RTEC repair in vitro as well as improve GFR and renal fibrosis in vivo. DN T cells have potential as immunotherapy to accelerate repair after AKI. NEW & NOTEWORTHY: Double-negative (DN) T cells (CD4− CD8−) are unconventional kidney T cells with regulatory abilities. Their role in repair from acute kidney injury (AKI) is unknown. Kidney DN T cell population decreased during repair after ischemic AKI, in contrast to regulatory T cells (Tregs) which increased. DN T cell administration accelerated tubular repair in vitro, while after severe in vivo ischemic injury reduced kidney fibrosis and increased glomerular filtration rate (GFR). DN T cell infusion is a potential therapeutic agent to improve outcome from severe AKI. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
