Project description:Plasmacytoid dendritic cells (PDC) play an important role in innate and adaptive immunity and were shown to be identical to previously described natural IFN-M-NM-1-producing cells (NIP). Here, we describe two functionally distinct PDC subpopulations that are characterized by the differential expression of stem cell antigen-1 (Sca-1; Ly-6A/E). Sca-1- PDC are mainly found in the bone marrow, appear first during development, show a higher proliferative activity and represent the more precursor phenotype. Sca-1+ PDC are mostly located in secondary lymphoid organs and show higher expression of MHC class II molecules. Sca-1- PDC give rise to a Sca-1+ subset upon activation or in response to tissue-specific factors. Interestingly, in contrast to Sca-1- PDC, Sca-1+ PDC are defective in type I IFN production upon endosomal TLR9 stimulation, whereas lysosomal signaling via TLR9 is functional in both subsets. Gene expression analysis revealed that osteopontin (Opn) is strongly upregulated in Sca-1- PDC. This data provides evidence for the molecular basis of the observed functional heterogeneity, as the intracellular isoform of Opn couples TLR9 signaling to IFN-M-NM-1 expression. Taken together, our results indicate that Sca-1- PDC are an early developmental stage of PDC with distinct innate functions representing the true murine NIP. The dataset comprises eight samples divided into two sample groups consisting of Sca-1(-) and Sca-1(+) PDCs collected from in vitro culture of differentiated bone marrow precursor cells using mFlt3-L

Project description:Dysfunction in type I interferon (IFN) signaling occurs in patients with stage II or more advanced cancer. After screening the effects of a panel of 12 melanoma cell lines on PBMCs of healthy volunteers of IFNalpha signal pathway, two groups of melanoma cell lines could be identified one with stronger suppression (low pSTAT-1 group) than the other (high pSTAT-1 group). Comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) identified consistent amplification of 12q22-24 as a genomic marker for the immune suppressive melanoma cell lines. This region corresponded to higher transcription of the NOS1 gene located in that region in the low pSTAT1 group and NOS1 expression was identified as causal factor in melanoma induced immune suppression. Twelve melanoma cell lines were analyzed. Genomic DNA of the cell line sample was labeled with Cy5 and reference normal PBMC DNA was labeled with Cy3.

Project description:Mouse monocytes exposed to M-CSF and IFN-M-NM-3 were driven to a suppressor phenotype over a seven day culture period. The resulting regulatory macrophages (M regs) expressed markers distinguishing them from M0-, M1-, and M2-polarised macrophages and monocyte-derived DCs. M regs completely suppressed polyclonal T cell proliferation through an inducibile nitric oxide synthase (iNOS)-dependent mechanism. Additionally, M regs were found to eliminate cocultured T cells in an allospecific fashion. In a heterotopic heart transplant model, a single intravenous administration of 5x10^6 donor-strain M regs prior to transplantation significantly prolonged allograft survival in fully immunocompetent recipients using both the stringent C3H-to-BALB/c and C57BL/6-to-BALB/c strain combinations; this graft-protective effect was alloantigen-specific. M regs from Nos2-deficient mice did not prolong allograft survival, proving that M reg function in vivo is iNOS-mediated and dependent on living cells. Co-treatment with 1 mg/kg/day rapamycin for 10 days post-transplant markedly enhanced the effect of M regs. In untransplanted C57BL/6 recipients, M regs of BALB/c origin were detectable for up to 2 weeks post-infusion. It is concluded that mouse M regs represent a novel, phenotypically distinct subset of tolerogenic macrophages, which resemble human M regs in their derivation, phenotype and in vitro functions. The dataset comprises 36 samples divided into twelve sample groups each representing a certain monocyte/macrophage subtype

Project description:Adoptive immunotherapy using ex vivo expanded tumor reactive lymphocytes can mediate durable cancer regression in selected melanoma patients. Analyses of these trials have associated the in vivo engraftment ability of the transferred cells with their anti-tumor efficacy. Thus, there is significant clinical interest in the prospective isolation of tumor specific T cells that can reliably persist after transfer. Animal studies have suggested that central memory CD8+ T cells (TCM) have divergent capabilities including effector differentiation to target antigen and stem cell-like self renewal that enable long term survival after adoptive transfer. In this study, we sought to isolate human melanoma specific TCM to define their in vivo fate and function after autologous therapeutic transfer to metastatic patients. To facilitate the high throughput identification of these rare cells from patients, we report that TCM have a defined stoichiometric production of IL-2 and IFN-g mRNA after antigen stimulation. Melanoma specific T cells screened for high relative IL-2 production possessed a TCM phenotype and superior in vitro proliferative capacity compared to cells with low IL-2 production. To investigate in vivo effector function and self renewal capability, melanoma specific TCM underwent in vitro expansion and differentiation into lytic effector clones and then were adoptively transferred back into their hosts. These clones targeted skin melanocytes in all five patients and persisted long term and reacquired parental TCM attributes in four patients after transfer. These findings demonstrate the favorable engraftment fitness for human TCM-derived clones, but further efforts to improve their anti-tumor efficacy are still necessary. We used microarrays to compare the resting gene expression profile of melanoma specific CD8+ T cell clones that were derived from either High IL-2:IFN index precursors or Low IL-2:IFN index precursors. Three melanoma specific effector clones were derived from parental cells that possessed a high IL-2:IFN index from three independent patients with metastatic melanoma. Two melanoma specific effector clones were derived from parental cells that possessed a low IL-2:IFN index from two independent patients with metastatic melanoma. We used microarrays to compare the resting gene expression profile of the CD8+ T cell clones that were derived from either high IL-2:IFN index precursors or low IL-2:IFN index precursors.

Project description:Monocytes/macrophages have the ability to fuse in multinucleated giant cells (MGCs). Except for osteoclasts that resorb bones on large surfaces, the function of other macrophage-derived MGCs, which appear under pathological situations associated with granulomatous inflammation such as tuberculosis, is not understood. Here we deciphered functions and gene expression profiles of MGCs obtained after stimulation of human monocytes with IFN-gM-BM- and concanavalin A. First, we show that the competence of MGCs in phagocytosis and O2- production was similar to those of monocytes-derived macrophages (MDMs) and that MGCs exhibited a M1 polarization. Second, we analyzed the transcriptional profile of MGCs using gene categories and the building of gene networks. The signature of MGCs was markedly distinct from that of resting or stimulated MDMs. It consisted of the up-regulation of genes involved in adhesion and cytoskeleton organization while genes associated with immune response were down-regulated. Hence, MGC formation was associated with a profound and original modulation of gene expression repertoire suggesting that macrophage immune were not prominent in MGC. This expression gene repertoire may be instrumental to understand the specific function of this giant macrophages in human pathologies 9 samples of monocytes-derived macrophages and 3 samples of mulitnucleated giant cells. 3 samples of MDM treated with concanavalin A, 3 samples of MDM treated with IFN-g, and 3 control MDM.

Project description:We showed that co-culture with TAMs triggered Bmi1 expression in gastrointestinal cancer cell lines. miRNAs have been found to target various oncogenes and tumor suppressors. We therefore hypothesized that the regulation of Bmi1 expression in gastrointestinal cancer cells may be mediated by miRNAs using miRNA microarray analysis. THP-1 cells were seeded in the transwell inserts (3540, Corning) for 6-well plates (1 M-CM-^W 106 cells/well). For preparation of M1-polarized THP-1 macrophages, 320 nM phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) was added to THP-1 cells for 6 h, followed by PMA plus 20 ng/ml interferon (IFN)-M-NM-3 and 100 ng/ml lipopolysaccharide for the following 18 h. For preparation of M2-polarized THP-1 macrophages, 320 nM PMA was added to THP-1 cells for 6 h, followed by PMA plus 20 ng/ml interleukin (IL)-4/IL-13 for the following 18 h. After three washes to remove cytokines, M1- or M2-polarized THP-1 macrophages were co-cultured in upper inserts with AGS cells in 6-well plates (1 M-CM-^W 105 cells/well) without direct contact, in each medium without 10% FBS as described above. After 24 h of co-culture, the upper inserts containing macrophages were discarded. AGS cells were collected and analyzed to identify downregulated microRNA in a gastric cancer cell line co-cultured with M1- or M2-polarized macrophage.

Project description:Dysfunction in type I interferon (IFN) signaling occurs in patients with stage II or more advanced cancer. After screening the effects of a panel of 12 melanoma cell lines on PBMCs of healthy volunteers of IFNalpha signal pathway, two groups of melanoma cell lines could be identified one with stronger suppression (low pSTAT-1 group) than the other (high pSTAT-1 group). Comparative global gene expression between two groups identified 6771 differential expression genes. This gene list indicated down regulation of IFNalpha signal in immune suppressive melanoma cells. To evaluate this gene list for predictive power on IFNalpha signal modulatory function, we analyzed gene expression 41 independent melanoma cell lines and heat map clusters these cell lines into two groups, one with strong immune suppressive function and other with less effect. Fifty-three melanoma cell lines were analyzed with twelve technical repeats.
