CD4+CD25+FOXP3+ malignant T cells in Sézary syndrome are not necessarily functional regulatory T cells David A. Wada, MD, Mark R. Pittelkow, MD, Nneka I. Comfere, MD, Lawrence E.

Fig 1 FOXP3+ cells are present in skin biopsy samples of two patients with Sézary syndrome. A, Photomicrograph of a skin biopsy specimen from patient 1. Scale bar represents 125 μm. Left, Hematoxylin–eosin stain; original magnification: ×200; inset, the infiltrate contains abundant CD4+ cells. Right, FOXP3+ cells (original magnification: ×200); inset, cells do not express CD25. B, Peripheral blood flow cytometry showed that Vβ-restricted neoplastic T cells did not have increased expression of FOXP3. C, Photomicrograph of a skin biopsy specimen from patient 2. Scale bar represents 125 μm. Left, Hematoxylin–eosin stain; original magnification: ×200; inset, the infiltrate contains high numbers of CD4+ cells. Right, FOXP3+ cells (original magnification: ×200); inset, cells are positive for CD25 (original magnification: ×200). D, Peripheral blood flow cytometry showed Vβ-restricted neoplastic T cells highly expressed FOXP3. E, Peripheral blood flow cytometry from a healthy (control) donor shows the CD4+CD25high population expresses FOXP3 at levels similar to those of patient 2, whereas the CD4+CD25– population does not express FOXP3 (similar to patient 1).

Fig 2 FOXP3+ cells in Sézary syndrome do not have T-cell suppressor activity. Conventional CD4+ T cells (Tconv) isolated from a healthy (control) donor were cultured alone or cocultured in triplicate in anti-CD3–coated 96-well plates (2×105 cells/well) with purified regulatory T cells (Treg) or malignant T cells from patient 2 at the ratios shown. Cells were pulse-treated with 1 μCi/well 3H-deoxyribonucleotide for the final 12 hours of a 72-hour culture before determination of thymidine incorporation.
