Generation DefinitionsDonating Investigator Edward F Rosloniec, Veterans Affairs Medical Center Description
Transgenic mice are viable, fertile, and normal in size. This mutant carries a transgene for a fully functional bovine and mouse type II collagen (260-267) specific IAq-restricted T cell receptor. Flow cytometric analysis show 90% Tcrb-V8.3 expression of CD4+ splenocytes and greater than 95% expression in CD4+ lymphocytes. The transgene confers severe accelerated autoimmune arthritis following type II collagen (CII) immunization. Splenocytes from tolerized mice have altered activation and memory cell surface markers and high levels of Th2 cytokine secretion compared to control. Estradiol completely prevents collagen-induced arthritis (CIA). This mutant mouse may be useful in studies of CIA, rheumatoid arthritis, and T regulatory cells and may also serve as a source of T cells that mediate development of autoimmune diseases.Development
Transgenic constructs containing the mouse alpha and beta chain of the T cell receptor recognizing both bovine and mouse type II collagen (260-267) were cloned from the Tcra-V11.1,Tcra-J(J17) and Tcrb-V8.3,Tcrb-D(D1),Tcrb-J(J1.4) expressing I-Aq-restricted T cell hybridoma qCII85.33. The constructs were co-injected into pronuclei of (C57BL/6 x C3H)F1 eggs. PCR-positive mice (founder line 24) were backcrossed to DBA/1LacJ for 8 generations.

Tg(Tcra,Tcrb)24Efro/0
D1.Cg-Tg(Tcra,Tcrb)24Efro
- immune system phenotype
- abnormal T cell differentiation
- following CII-tolerization, transgenic T cells from the spleen show increased levels of activation markers CD69 and CD71, compared to OVA-tolerized transgenic mice eased in CII-tolerized cells (MGI Ref ID J:104243)
- decreased T cell proliferation
- 24 hours after exposure to 200 ug of CII tolerogen, T cells show a greatly reduced capacity to proliferate on CII stimulus compared to T cells from mice exposed to 200 ug of OVA; 48 hours after CII exposure, T cells are refractory to stimulation by CII peptide up to 130 uM (MGI Ref ID J:104243)
- after 72 hours, CII-tolerized cells can be stimulated by CII concentrations that are >2 logs higher than that needed to stimulate OVA-tolerized transgenic T cells (MGI Ref ID J:104243)
- suppressed proliferative response is observed up to 7 days post-CII treatment (MGI Ref ID J:104243)
- increased T cell proliferation
- when stimulated in vitro with CII (type II collagen) or a CII peptide, naive T cells show a vigorous proliferative response, while non-transgenic T cells do not (MGI Ref ID J:104243)
- proliferation of CII-tolerized T cells can be restored when cultured with CII and very high Il2 concentrations (MGI Ref ID J:104243)
- abnormal cytokine secretion
- after overnight CII stimulation, CII-treated T cells produce equivalent levels of Il2 as OVA-treated T cells, but by 48 hours after tolerization, the Il2 response is reduced (MGI Ref ID J:104243)
- by 48 hours after tolerance induction, production of Th2 cytokines like Il4 and Il10 are enhanced in T cells from CII-treated mice compared to those from OVA-treated mice (MGI Ref ID J:104243)
- IFNgamma production is elevated in cultures from CII-treated mice (MGI Ref ID J:104243)
- without CII peptide stimulation, no cytokines can be detected in cultures (MGI Ref ID J:104243)
- autoimmune response
- when immunized with an emulsion containing CII and CFA, mice develop strong T-cell dependent antibody response to the immunogen and the autoantigen, murine CII (MGI Ref ID J:104243)
- in arthritis incidence in transgenic mice; 100 % of mice tolerized with OVA develop arthritis by day 24 at an accelerated rate, but only 2 mice tolerized with CII develop disease by 42 days (MGI Ref ID J:104243)
- when mice are tolerized with 3 consecutive doses of 200 ug OVA or CII, no CII-tolerized mice develop arthritis, whereas all OVA-tolerized mice develop disease by day 13 (MGI Ref ID J:104243)
- increased autoantibody level
- levels of anti-CII antibody levels are higher than in controls littermates at day 19, but at day 34 levels are high in both groups of mice (MGI Ref ID J:104243)
- increased susceptibility to autoimmune disorder
- immunized mice develop severe accelerated autoimmune arthritis as early as 11 days after immunization with maximum incidence and severity by 35 days compared to non-transgenic littermates which develop arthritis around day 20 and maximum incidence by day 50 which is similar to that seen in wild-type DBA/1 mice (MGI Ref ID J:104243)
- however, no spontaneous arthritis has been observed in transgenic mice up to 9 months of age (MGI Ref ID J:104243)
- increased memory T cell number
- markers (CD44high and CD62low) for memory T cell phenotypes are increased in CII-tolerized cells (MGI Ref ID J:104243)
- hematopoietic system phenotype
- abnormal T cell differentiation
- following CII-tolerization, transgenic T cells from the spleen show increased levels of activation markers CD69 and CD71, compared to OVA-tolerized transgenic mice eased in CII-tolerized cells (MGI Ref ID J:104243)
- decreased T cell proliferation

- cellular phenotype
