Abstract

Neutrophils display heterogeneity and plasticity with different subgroups and immune-regulatory functions under various surrounding conditions. Neutrophils induced by IL-23/IL-18 (referred to N(IL-23+IL-18) neutrophils) have a unique gene-expression profile, with highly expressing IL-17, MHC-II, and costimulatory molecules. The adoptive transfer of N(IL-23+IL-18) neutrophils significantly increased the pathogenesis in a renal ischemia-reperfusion injury mouse model. N(IL-23+IL-18) neutrophils directly and efficiently induced allogeneic T cell proliferation in vitro. N(IL-23+IL-18) neutrophils enhanced the syngeneic T cell response to allogeneic antigens in mixed-lymphocyte reaction assays. The adoptive transfer of the donor or host N(IL-23+IL-18) neutrophils significantly enhanced the antidonor antibody production in an allogeneic-skin-transplanted mouse model, accompanied by increased Tfh cells in the spleens. Therefore, the neutrophil subset induced by IL-23/IL-18 promotes tissue injury and antidonor humoral response in the allogeneic transplantation mouse model.
