Distinct roles for IL-27 and IFN-g in the development of T-bet+ Treg required to limit infection-induced pathology

ABSTRACT: IL-27 is a potent antagonist of TH1-mediated inflammation, but the basis for this effect is not fully understood. Recent studies identified a population of T-bet+ CXCR3+ Treg that limit TH1-mediated immune pathology. The studies presented here demonstrate that IL-27-mediated STAT1 activation promotes Treg expression of T-bet and CXCR3. Infection with Toxoplasma gondii induced a similar Treg population that limits T cell responses and this population at mucosal sites is IL-27-dependent. Furthermore, transfer of Treg ameliorated the infection-induced CD4+ T cell-mediated pathology observed in IL-27p28-/- mice. Although IFN-γ promoted a similar population of cells in the periphery, it did not compensate for the absence of IL-27 at mucosal sites and microarray analysis revealed that Treg exposed to either cytokine have distinct transcriptional profiles. These findings suggest that IFN-γ and IL-27 have different roles in Treg biology but define IL-27 as a key cytokine that promotes the development of Treg specialized to control TH1 immunity. Three conditions were analyzed across two timepoints. Inducible regulatory T cells (iTreg) were generated in vitro in the presence of IL-27, IFNg or under 'Neutral' conditions as a control. Samples were collected at 10 hours and 2 days during the culture period. Three biological replicates were used for each condition.

Quantitative Proteomics Reveals Specialized Wiring of Signaling Pathways that Protects Human Regulatory T Cell Identity - 2 populations in vitro

Project description:Regulatory CD4+ T cells (Tregs) are functionally distinct from conventional CD4+ T cells (Tconvs). To understand Treg identity, we compared by proteomics and transcriptomics human naïve (n) and effector (e)Tregs, Tconvs and transitional FOXP3+ cells. Only 12% of 422 differentially expressed proteins was identified as such at the mRNA level, demonstrating the importance of direct proteome measurement. Fifty-one proteins discriminated Tregs from Tconvs. This common Treg protein signature indicates altered signaling by TCR-, TNF receptor-, NFB-, PI3 kinase/mTOR-, NFAT- and STAT pathways, and unique cell biological and metabolic features. Another protein signature uniquely identified eTregs and revealed active cell division, apoptosis sensitivity and suppression of NFB- and STAT signaling. eTreg fate appears consolidated by FOXP3 outnumbering its partner transcription factors. These features explain why eTregs cannot produce inflammatory cytokines, whereas transitional FOXP3+ cells can. Collectively, our data reveal that Treg identity is defined and protected by uniquely “wired” signaling pathways.

CXCR3+ Treg cells suppress Th1-immune responses through expression of the co-inhibitory receptors CD85k and Lag-3

Project description:CD4+Foxp3+ Treg cells are essential for maintaining self-tolerance and preventing excessive immune responses. In the context of Th1 immune responses, co-expression of the Th1 transcription factor T-bet with Foxp3 is essential for Treg cells to control Th1 responses. T-bet-dependent expression of CXCR3 directs Tregs to the site of inflammation, however, the suppressive mediators enabling effective control of Th1 responses at this site are unknown. In this study, we determined the signature of CXCR3+ Treg cells arising in Th1 settings and defined universal features of Treg cells in this context using multiple Th1-dominated models. Our analysis defined a set of Th1-specific co-inhibitory receptors that are specifically expressed in Treg cells during Th1 immune responses. Among these, we identified the novel co-inhibitory receptor CD85k as a functional mediator of the enhanced suppression of Th1 effector cells by CXCR3+ Treg cells.

The distinct function and control of regulatory T cell subsets during influenza infection

Project description:During influenza infection, Treg cells in the lung acquire at least 3 discernable phenotypes which can be characterized by the expression of the IL-33 receptor ST2, the Th1 associated chemokine receptor CXCR3 or neither receptor. It is known in the Treg field that Treg cell acquire different phenotypes to more specifically target related immune responses. For example, Th1 like CXCR3 expressing Treg cells are thought to traffic to and specifically suppress adaptive type 1 immune responses. We have found that during influenza infection, ST2+ Treg cells specifically target innate immune responses characterized by IL-1 mediated neutrophil and eosinophil recruitment and the activation of IL17 producing gamma delta T cells. In order to determine how ST2+ Treg cell perform their specific immunomodulatory function, we have performed RNAseq transcriptomic analysis to compare gene expression in ST2+ Tregs isolated from day 7 influenza infected lungs with CXCR3+ Treg cells and Treg cells expressing neither marker also from day 7 of influenza infected lungs as well as compared to total Treg cells from the spleen of uninfected mice.

RNA-seq bulk of CCR6+Th-cell subsets in Crohn’s Disease, peripheral blood and intestinal lamina propria

Project description:This RNA seq experiment was designed to identify a gene signature of a CCR5-expressing subset of human intestinal Th17-cells. T helper-cells from peripheral blood of healthy donors and from the lamina propria of Crohn’s Disease patients were FACS-purified according to the expression of the chemokine receptors CCR6, CCR5 and CXCR3. Four CCR6+Th- subsets were isolated according to CXCR3 and CCR5 expression: two CXCR3- Th17 subsets (CCR5-: “cTh17” or CCR5+: “pTh17”) and two subsets of CXCR3+ Th1/17-cells (CCR5+ or CCR5-)

Comparison of Treg and Teff cells in healthy and COPD smokers.

Project description:Rationale: COPD is characterized by an abnormal regulatory T cell (Treg) response and increases in Th1 and Th17 cell responses. It is unclear if dysregulation of miRNAs within Treg alters the adaptive immunophenotype in COPD. Objectives: To compare the miRNA profile of COPD Treg cells with that of healthy controls and to explore the function of differentially expressed miRNAs. Methods: Treg cells (CD4+CD25+CD49-CD127-) and T effector (CD4+CD25-) cells were obtained from the peripheral blood of 4 nonsmokers, 4 healthy current smokers, and 4 COPD current smokers for analysis of miRNA expression, matching them for age and sex. We assessed expression initially by microarray analysis on the Illumina miRNA platform then conducted real time RT-PCR validation of the microarray results. 24 samples were analyzed. 8 from each patient group of healthy Normal, Healthy Smoker, and COPD Smoker.

Sequential induction of effector function, tissue migration and cell death during polyclonal activation of regulatory T-cells

Project description:The ability of Treg-cells to produce interleukin-10 (IL-10) is important for the limitation of inflammation at environmental interfaces like colon or lung. Under steady state conditions, however, only few Treg-cells produce IL-10 ex vivo. To investigate the origin and fate of IL-10 producing Tregcells we used a superagonistic mouse anti-mouse CD28 mAb (CD28SA) for polyclonal in vivo stimulation of Treg-cells, which not only led to numeric expansion but also to a dramatic increase in IL- 10 production. IL-10 secreting Treg-cells strongly upregulated surface receptors associated with suppressive function, and had higher but IL-10 independent, in vitro suppressive capacity than nonproducing Treg-cells. Furthermore, polyclonally expanding Treg-cells shifted their migration receptor pattern after activation from a lymph node-seeking to an inflammation-seeking phenotype, explaining the preferential recruitment of IL-10 producers to sites of ongoing immune responses. Finally, we observed that IL-10 producing Treg-cells from CD28SA stimulated mice were more apoptosis-prone in vitro than their IL-10 negative counterparts. These findings support a model where prolonged activation of Treg-cells results in terminal differentiation towards an IL-10 producing effector phenotype associated with a limited lifespan, implicating built-in termination of immunosuppression. total samples analysed are 4

DNA methylation differences between human regulatory T cells and conventional T cells

Project description:Regulatory T cells (Treg) prevent the emergence of autoimmune disease. Prototypic natural Treg (nTreg) are programmed by Forkhead-box P3 (FOXP3) and can be reliably identified by demethylation at the FOXP3 locus. To explore the nTreg methylation landscape we performed genome-wide methylation studies on human naïve resting nTreg (rTreg) and conventional naïve CD4+ T cells (Naïve). We detected 2,315 differentially methylated CpGs between these two cell types, many of which clustered into 127 regions of differential methylation (RDMs). T cell activation induced changes in 466 individual CpGs and 18 RDMs in naïve CD4+ T cells, but did not alter DNA methylation in rTreg. Expression of mRNA for TIGIT, an immune suppressive receptor demethylated in rTreg, was upregulated in nTreg and reduced in peripheral blood mononuclear cells of individuals at risk for autoimmune (type 1) diabetes. Gene-set testing of the 127 RDMs revealed enrichment of common Treg signature genes, FOXP3 bound genes and genes directly upregulated by FOXP3, which was primarily driven by the subset of demethylated RDMs. A putative Forkhead-binding motif overrepresented in promoter-associated RDMs suggests methylation regulates gene expression by influencing FOXP3 binding. Our findings provide new insights into epigenetic regulation of human nTreg and the potential to exploit differential methylation as an immune biomarker in human diseases. Naïve and rTreg cells were sorted from buffy coats of 3 healthy male donors (M28, 29, 30) and then activated for 6 days with anti-CD3 and anti-CD28 antibodies, supplemented with IL-2 at day 4. DNA was harvested and bisulfite converted for methylation analysis on illumina HM450 array from 2-3 biological replicates of each cell type: rTreg (M28, M30), naïve (M28, M29, M30), Act-naïve (M28, M29, M30) and Act-rTreg (M29, M30).
