Reduced immune function is frequently a consequence of serious injury such as trauma-hemorrhage (T-H). Injury may lead to reduced T-cell activation, resulting in decreased engagement of costimulatory molecules after antigen recognition and in subsequent immunological compromise and anergy. We hypothesized that inhibition of CD28 expression is one possible mechanism by which immune functions are suppressed after T-H. Male C3H/HeN mice (with or without ovalbumin immunization) were subjected to sham operation or T-H and sacrificed after 24 hours. Splenic T cells were then stimulated with concanavalin A or ovalbumin in vivo or in vitro, and CD28, cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen 4 (CTLA-4), CD69, and phospho-Akt expression was determined. T-cell proliferation/cytokine production was measured in vitro. Stimulation-induced CD69, CD28, and phospho-Akt up-regulation were significantly impaired after T-H compared with sham-operated animals; however, CTLA-4 expression was significantly higher in the T-H group. Over a 3-day span, stimulated T cells from sham-operated animals showed significantly higher proliferation compared with the T-H group. IL-2 and IFN-gamma were elevated in sham-operated animals, whereas IL-4 and IL-5 rose in the T-H group, revealing a shift from T(H)1 to T(H)2 type cytokine production after T-H. Dysregulation of the T-cell costimulatory pathway is therefore likely to be a significant contributor to post-traumatic immune suppression.
