ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the effect of γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) and its receptors upon the proliferation of CD8+T cells.Methods The splenic CD8+T cells of Balb/c mice were obtained by CD8+f cell magnetic bead sorting kit.Under the effect of CD3/CD28-activated magnetic bead,CD8+T cells were stimulated by different concentrations of GABA.5-bromo-2-deoxyuridine (BrdU) labeling and flow cytometry were performed to detect the proliferation of CD8+T cells.The expression levels of GABA-A and GABA-B receptor before and after CD8+T cell activation were compared by fluorescent quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR).Result Flow cytometry result revealed that GABA could inhibit the proliferation of activated CD8+T cells,manifested as significant decrease in the quantity of CD152+CD8+T cells.Fluorescent quantitative real-time PCR demonstrated that GABA-A receptor subtypes α2,α6 and GABA-B receptor subtype 1a were expressed only when the CD8+T cells were activated.After CD8+T cell activation,the quantity of GABA-A receptor subtypes α3,αs,β2,β3,γ1,γ2 and θ were significantly increased,whereas the quantity of GABA-B2R and GABA-B1b did not significantly differ before and after CD8+T cell activation.Conclusions GABA can suppress the proliferation of activated CD8+T cells.The activation of CD8+T cells is regulated by GABA receptors.However,the underlying mechanism remains to be elucidated.
