Human papilloma virus‐16‐specific CD8+ T‐cell expansions characterize different clinical forms of lichen planus and not lichen sclerosus et atrophicus

Antoine Touzé

Abstract

Lichen planus (LP) is a cutaneomucosal chronic inflammatory disease characterized by a CD8 + cytotoxic T-lymphocytes (CTL) infiltrate. In erosive oral LP, we found HPV16specific activated CTL in lesions, supporting a pathogenic contribution of HPV16. Here, we investigated whether a similar scenario occurs in other clinical forms of LP and in lichen sclerosus et atrophicus (LSA), another chronic disease also affecting the mucosa and/or the skin. Blood CTL from LP and LSA patients expressed significant higher levels of granzyme B, perforin and CD107a proteins than healthy donors. Expansions of TCRVß3 + CTL, with presence of TCR clonotypes identical to those previously detected in erosive oral LP, were found both in blood and mucosal/skin lesions of LP, and not of LSA patients. These expansions were enriched with HPV16-specific CD8 + T-cells as shown by their recognition of the E7 11-20 immunodominant epitope. In LSA patients, the peripheral repertoire of CTL was oligoclonal for TCRVß6 + CTL. Finally, although patients with LP and LSA have developed antibodies against HPV16
