However, the underlying mechanisms for this immunodeficiency are poorly understood. In this article, we describe previously overlooked impacts of GVHD on lymph node (LN) stromal cells involved in humoral immune responses. In major- and minor-mismatched mouse allo-HSCT models, recipients with CD8+ T cell\u2013mediated GVHD suffered severe and irreversible damage to LN structure. These mice were susceptible to pathogenic infection and failed to mount humoral immune responses despite the presence of peripheral T and B cells. These humoral immune defects were associated with the early loss of fibroblastic reticular cells, most notably the CD157+ cell subset, as well as structural defects in high endothelial venules. The disruption to these LN stromal cells was dependent on alloantigens expressed by nonhematopoietic cells. Blockade of the Fas-FasL pathway prevented damage to CD157+ fibroblastic reticular cells and ameliorated LN GVHD. However, blockade of CD62L- or CCR7-dependent migration of CD8+ T cells to the LN was insufficient to prevent stromal cell injury. Overall, our results highlight GVHD-associated loss of functional stromal cells and LN GVHD as a possible explanation for the prolonged susceptibility to infectious disease that is experienced by allo-HSCT patients.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.4049\/jimmunol.1401022","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2014,11,25]],"date-time":"2014-11-25T04:29:05Z","timestamp":1416889745000},"page":"398-406","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":29,"title":["Loss
