The transcription factor Foxp3 participates dominantly in the specification and function of Foxp3(+)CD4(+) regulatory T cells (T(reg) cells) but is neither strictly necessary nor sufficient to determine the characteristic T(reg) cell signature. Here we used computational network inference and experimental testing to assess the contribution of other transcription factors to this. Enforced expression of Helios or Xbp1 elicited distinct signatures, but Eos, IRF4, Satb1, Lef1 and GATA-1 elicited exa ...[more]

Genome-wide maps of FoxP3 binding in transduced CD4+ T cells

Project description:The transcription factor FoxP3 partakes dominantly in the specification and function of FoxP3+ CD4+ T regulatory cells (Tregs), but is neither strictly necessary nor sufficient to determine the characteristic Treg transcriptional signature. Computational network inference and experimental testing assessed the contribution of several other transcription factors (TFs). Enforced expression of Helios or Xbp1 elicited specific signatures, but Eos, Irf4, Satb1, Lef1 and Gata1 elicited exactly the same outcome, synergizing with FoxP3 to activate most of the Treg signature, including key TFs, and enhancing FoxP3 occupancy at its genomic targets. Conversely, the Treg signature was robust to inactivation of any single cofactor. A redundant genetic switch thus locks-in the Treg phenotype, a model which accounts for several aspects of Treg physiology, differentiation and stability. We used chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by high-throughput sequencing (ChIP-seq) to assess how cofactors affect the genome-wide localization of FoxP3. Chromatin was prepared from primary CD4+ Tconv cells transfected with FLAG-FoxP3 alone or together with GATA1, immunoprecipitated with anti-FLAG, and the bound DNA determined by Illumina deep sequencing. Immunoprecipitation with anti-PolII, or whole cell extract, provided genome-wide controls for transcriptional start sites (TSSd) or for sequencing non-homogeneity, respectively.

To study the impact of FoxP3 and its candidate cofactors (Eos, Gata1, Helios, Irf4, Lef1, Satb1, Xbp1) on the expression of the Treg transcriptional signature, CD4+ conventional T cells (Tconv) activated with anti-CD3+CD28 beads were retrovirally transduced with cDNAs encoding FOXP3, candidate TFs, or a combination of FOXP3 and candidate TFs. After 3 days in culture, the transduced cells were sorted into Trizol, and RNA was purified, labeled and hybridized to Affymetrix arrays.

Gene expression profiling in Treg cells deficient or mutant in candidate FoxP3 cofactors

To study the impact of deficiency of candidate FoxP3 cofactors (Xbp1, Eos, Gata1) on the expression of the Treg transcriptional signature, gene expression profiles were generated from purified splenic CD4+CD25hi Tregs of these mutant or knockout mice and their wildtype littermates.

Expression data of Pioglitazone-, Rosiglitazone-, GW1929- and vehicle-treated CD4+FoxP3- T cells transduced with Foxp3+Pparg1

Project description:Pioglitazone treatment of CD4+FoxP3- T cells transduced with Pparg and Foxp3 up-regulated a set of genes whose products have been implicated in lipid metabolism pathways. To verify the specificity of this treatment, we performed microarray analysis on Foxp3+Pparg1-transduced CD4+FoxP3- T cells after treatment with other PPARg agonists such as Rosiglitazone (TZD) and GW1929 (non-TZD). All gene expression profiles were obtained from highly purified (double-sorted) T cell populations sorted by flow cytometry. To reduce variability, cells from multiple mice were pooled. Triplicates were generated for all groups. Raw data were preprocessed with the RMA algorithm in GenePattern and averaged expression values were used for analysis.

Foxp3 expression is required for the induction of therapeutic tissue tolerance

Project description:CD4+Foxp3+ regulatory T cells (Treg) are essential for immune homeostasis and maintenance of self-tolerance. They are produced in the thymus and also generated de novo in the periphery in a TGFB dependent manner. Foxp3+ Treg are also required to achieve tolerance to transplanted tissues when induced by co-receptor or costimulation blockade. Using TCR transgenic mice to avoid issues of autoimmune pathology we show that Foxp3 expression is necessary and sufficient for tissue tolerance by coreceptor blockade. Moreover, the known need in tolerance induction for TGFB signalling to T cells, can wholly be explained by its role in induction of Foxp3, as such signalling proved dispensable for the suppressive process. We analysed the relative contribution of TGFB and Foxp3 on the transcriptome of TGFB induced Treg. TGFB elicited a large set of downregulated signature genes. The number of genes uniquely modulated due to the influence of Foxp3 alone was surprisingly limited. Retroviral conditional Foxp3 expression proved sufficient to confer transplant-suppressive potency on CD4+ T cells, and was lost once nuclear Foxp3 expression was extinguished. Thus despite the large genetic influence of TGFB exposure on iTreg the crucial Foxp3 influenced signature independent of TGFB is small. These data support a dual role for TGFB and Foxp3 in induced tolerance, where TGFB stimulates Foxp3 expression whose sustained expression is associated with acquisition of tolerance 21 samples were analyzed. 5 replicates of Marilyn.Foxp3hCD2 activated (HY)(Untreated) and TGFB-induced (HYT) cells sorted as CD4+hCD2+ and CD4+hCD2- and 3 replicates of Marilyn.Foxp3-/- activated and TGFβ-experienced (but Foxp3-) cells sorted as CD4+CD2. Pairwise comparisons were generated for the Marilyn Foxp3hCD2 UT versus TGFB induced populations and also for the Marilyn Foxp3-/- UT versus the TGFB experienced cells sorted as CD4+CD2
