Transcription profiling of mouse Cbfb-deficient regulatory T cells

ABSTRACT: Gene expression profiles of Cbfb-deficient and control Treg cells were compared. Abstract: Naturally arising regulatory T (Treg) cells express the transcription factor FoxP3, which critically controls the development and function of Treg cells. FoxP3 interacts with another transcription factor Runx1 (also known as AML1). Here we showed that Treg cell-specific deficiency of Cbfβ, a cofactor for all Runx proteins, or that of Runx1, but not Runx3, induced lymphoproliferation, autoimmune disease, and hyper-production of IgE. Cbfb-deleted Treg cells exhibited impaired suppressive function in vitro and in vivo, with altered gene expression profiles including attenuated expression of FoxP3 and high expression of interleukin-4. The Runx complex bound to more than 3000 gene loci in Treg cells, including the Foxp3 regulatory regions and the Il4 silencer. In addition, knockdown of RUNX1 showed that RUNX1 is required for the optimal regulation of FoxP3 expression in human T cells. Taken together, our results indicate that the Runx1-Cbfβ heterodimer is indispensable for in vivo Treg cell function, in particular, suppressive activity and optimal expression of FoxP3. Experiment Overall Design: CD4+CD25hi cells, most of which were Foxp3+ Treg cells, were isolated from Cbfb-flox/flox: Foxp3-ires-Cre (n = 3) and control Cbfb-flox/wt: Foxp3-ires-Cre (n = 3) mice. Total RNA was extracted from those purified Cbfb-deficient or control Treg cells.

HIC1 interacts with FOXP3 multi protein complex: a novel mechanism to regulate human regulatory T cell differentiation and function

Project description:Recent data have shown that Hypermethylated in cancer 1 (HIC1) is an important contributor to iTreg cell development and function. Using affinity-purification and tandem mass spectrometry we systematically characterized the HIC-1 interactome in human iTreg cells. On the basis of these data, we have shown that HIC1 is a part of FOXP3-RUNX1-CBFβ protein complex that regulates Treg signature genes and is indispensable for the suppressive function of FOXP3+ regulatory T cells. SRM was used to validate HIC1 interactors

HIC1 interacts with FOXP3 multi protein complex: a novel mechanism to regulate human regulatory T cell differentiation and function

Project description:Transcriptional repressor, hypermethylated in cancer 1 (HIC1) is an important contributor to regulatory T (Treg) cell development and function. To investigate the mechanism by which it regulates Treg cell development, we systematically characterized the HIC1 interactome by affinity-purification mass spectrometry in human regulatory T cells. Interactors, involved in protein transport, mRNA processing, non-coding (ncRNA) transcription and RNA metabolism processes were identified. These data demonstrate that HIC1 is a part of a FOXP3-RUNX1-CBFβ protein complex that regulates Treg signature genes and is indispensable for the suppressive function of FOXP3+ regulatory T cells.

CBFb Stabilizes HIV Vif to Counteract APOBEC3 at the Expense of RUNX1 Target Gene Expression [ChIP-seq]

Project description:The HIV-1 accessory protein Vif hijacks a cellular Cullin-RING ubiquitin ligase, CRL5, to promote degradation of the APOBEC3 (A3) family of restriction factors. Recently, the cellular transcription cofactor CBFb was shown to form a complex with CRL5-Vif and to be essential for A3 degradation and viral infectivity. We now demonstrate that CBFb is required for assembling a well-ordered CRL5-Vif complex by inhibiting Vif oligomerization and by activating CRL5-Vif via direct interaction. The CRL5-Vif-CBFb holoenzyme forms a welldeﬁned heterohexamer, indicating that Vif simultaneously hijacks CRL5 and CBFb. Heterodimers of CBFb and RUNX transcription factors contribute toward the regulation of genes, including those with immune system functions. We show that binding of Vif to CBFb is mutually exclusive with RUNX heterodimerization and impacts the expression of genes whose regulatory domains are associated with RUNX1. Our results provide a mechanism by which a pathogen with limited coding capacity uses one factor to hijack multiple host pathways. Identification of RUNX1 binding sites in the Jurkat cell line

The DEL-1–β3 integrin axis promotes Runx-1–dependent Foxp3 expression and regulatory T cell responses at mucosal barrier sites

Project description:Foxp3+CD4+ regulatory T cells (Tregs) are critical for immune homeostasis and respond to local tissue cues, which control their stability and function. We explored here whether DEL-1, which, like Tregs, increases during resolution of inflammation, promotes Treg responses. DEL-1 enhanced Treg numbers and function at barrier sites (oral and lung mucosa). The underlying mechanism was dissected using mice lacking DEL-1 or expressing a point mutant thereof, or mice with CD4-specific deletion of the transcription factor Runx1, identified by RNA-seq analysis of the DEL-1-induced Treg transcriptome. Specifically, through interaction with avβ3-integrin, DEL-1 promoted induction of Runx1-dependent Foxp3 expression and conferred stability of Foxp3 expression upon Treg restimulation in the absence of exogenous TGFβ1. Additionally, DEL-1 increased RUNX1 and FOXP3 expression in human conventional T cells promoting their conversion into induced Tregs with increased TSDR demethylation, increased stability and suppressive activity. We thus uncovered a DEL-1-avβ3-Runx1 axis that promotes Treg responses at barrier sites and offers novel therapeutic options for modulating inflammatory/autoimmune disorders.

Nemo-like kinase drives Foxp3 stability and is critical for maintenance of immune tolerance by regulatory T cells

Project description:The Foxp3 transcription factor is a crucial determinant of both regulatory T (TREG) cell development and their functional maintenance. Appropriate modulation of tolerogenic immune responses therefore requires tight regulation of Foxp3 transcriptional output, and this involves both transcriptional and post-translational regulation. Here, we show that during T cell activation, phosphorylation of Foxp3 in TREG cells can be regulated by a TGFβ Activated Kinase 1 (TAK1)-Nemo Like Kinase (NLK) signaling pathway. NLK interacts with Foxp3 in TREG cells and directly phosphorylates Foxp3 on multiple serine residues. This phosphorylation results in stabilization of Foxp3 protein levels by preventing association with the STUB1 E3-ubiquitin protein ligase, resulting in both reduced ubiquitination and proteasome-mediated degradation. Conditional TREG cell NLK-knockout (NLKTREG) results in decreased TREG cell-mediated immunosuppression in vivo and NLK-deficient TREG cell animals develop more severe experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis. Our data suggest a molecular mechanism, in which stimulation of TCR-mediated signaling can induce a TAK1-NLK pathway to sustain Foxp3 transcriptional activity through stabilization of protein levels, thereby maintaining TREG cell suppressive function. Pharmacological manipulation of this phosphorylation-ubiquitination axis may provide therapeutic opportunities for regulating TREG cell function, for example during cancer immunotherapy.

Transcriptional correlates of FOXP3 expression in suppressive and non-suppressive primary human Treg cell clones.

Project description:Analysis of the transcriptional correlates of FOXP3 expression in suppressive and non-suppressive primary human Treg cell clones. Individual CD4+CD25High or Cd4+CD25- T cells were isolated from human PBMCs and expanded in vitro. After 3 weeks of expansion, individual clones were analysed for FOXP3 expression and in vitro suppressive activity against freshly sorted allogeneic effector T cells. This study analyses the total RNA isolated from FOXP3+ clones with suppressive potency to their non-suppressive counterparts. The resutls of this study should provide insights into the molecular pathways linking FOXP3 expression to distinct aspects of Treg phenotype and function. Total RNA obtained from individual clones of primary human regulatory and effector CD4+T cells.

Inverted chromatin immunoprecipitation identifies Tcf1 as a negative regulator of Foxp3 expression

Project description:Regulatory T (Treg) cells are important regulators of the immune system and have versatile functions for the homeostasis and repair of tissues. They express the forkhead box transcription factor Foxp3 as a lineage-defining protein. In mature Treg cells, the Foxp3 core promoter is unmethylated indicating that this area could harbor a transcription factor complex to initiate or repress gene expression, respectively. We used an unbiased method to identify Foxp3-promoter-binding transcription factors (TFs) by inverted chromatin immunoprecipitation (IP) followed by quantitative mass spectrometry. We identified several candidate factors which showed Foxp3-promoter suppressive capacity, one of which was T-cell factor 1 (Tcf1). Using viral overexpression and CRISPR/Cas knockout studies, we identified Tcf1 as a repressor of Foxp3 expression in primary conventional CD4 T cells (Tconv). In Tcf1-deficient animals, increased levels of Foxp3intermediateCD25negative T cells were identified in secondary lymphoid tissues, implicating that Tcf1 protects Foxp3-negative T cells from inadvertent Foxp3 expression.

proteomic profiling of small extracellular vesicles (EVs), released by chronic myeloid leukemia cells K562

Project description:Chronic and acute myeloid leukemia (CML/AML) evade immune surveillance and induce immunosuppression, largely by upregulating Foxp3+ regulatory T cells (Treg). However, mechanisms that drive Treg in myeloid leukemias are largely unknown. Here, we show that leukemic (CML- and AML-derived) extracellular vesicles (EVs) drive human Treg, by de novo induction of Treg and by upregulating suppressive phenotype and activity of Treg. Rab27a-mediated EVs secretion contributed to Treg expansion, activity, and leukemic engraftment in vivo in a mouse model of CML-like disease. Leukemic EVs downregulated mTOR-S6 and upregulated STAT5 signaling in T cells, to upregulate Foxp3 and Treg activity, as well as evoked significant transcriptomic changes in Treg. By using high resolution 23-color spectral flow cytometry we identified 2 distinct, highly suppressive subsets of Treg expanded by leukemic EVs, characterized by elevated expression of tumor Treg markers CCR8, CCR4, TIGIT, CD39, CD30, TNFR2 and IL21R. Finally, we identified 4 1BBL/TNFSF9 protein in leukemic EVs. Deficiency of 4-1BBL in leukemic cells and EVs resulted in lower expression of CD30, TNFR2 and LAG-3 on Treg and thus weaker effector phenotype. Collectively, our data pinpoint leukemic extracellular vesicles as a significant factor that drives regulatory T cells and immunosuppression in myeloid leukemias. Our results suggest that targeting of Rab27a and EVs secretion may be a viable therapeutic option in myeloid leukemias, whereas detection of 4 1BBL containing EVs could be used as an early biomarker of immunosuppression and leukemia development/relapse
