Project description:The mechanisms by which vaccines interact with human APCs remain elusive. We applied systems biology to define the transcriptional programs induced in human DCs by pathogens, innate receptor ligands and vaccines. Upon exposing DCs to influenza, Salmonella enterica and Staphylococcus aureus, we built a modular framework containing 204 pathogen-induced transcript clusters. Module fingerprints were then analyzed in DCs activated with 16 innate receptor ligands. This framework was then used to characterize human monocytes, IL-4 DC and blood DC subsets responses to 13 vaccines. Different vaccines induced distinct signatures based on pathogen type, adjuvant formulation and APC targeted. Fluzone broadly activated IL-4 DC whereas pneumovax only activated monocytes and gardasil (HPV) only activated CD1c+ mDC. This highlights that different antigen-presenting cells respond to different vaccines. Finally, the blood signatures from individuals vaccinated with fluzone or infected with influenza were interpreted using these modules. We identified a signature of adaptive immunity activation following vaccination and symptomatic infections, but not asymptomatic infections. These data, offered with a web interface, might guide the development of improved vaccines.

Project description:BACKGROUND: Combination antiretroviral therapy (cART) is able to control HIV-1 viral replication, however long-lived latent infection in resting memory CD4+ T-cells persist. The mechanisms for establishment and maintenance of latent infection in resting memory CD4+ T-cells remain unclear. Previously we have shown that HIV-1 infection of resting CD4+ T-cells co-cultured with CD11c+ myeloid dendritic cells (mDC) produced a population of non-proliferating T-cells with latent infection. Here we asked whether different antigen presenting cells (APC), including subpopulations of DC and monocytes, were able to induce post-integration latent infection in resting CD4+ T-cells, and examined potential cell interactions that may be involved using RNA-seq. RESULTS: mDC (CD1c+), SLAN+ DC and CD14+ monocytes were most efficient in stimulating proliferation of CD4+ T-cells during syngeneic culture and in generating post-integration latent infection in non-proliferating CD4+ T-cells following HIV-1 infection of APC-T-cell co-cultures. In comparison, plasmacytoid DC (pDC) and B-cells did not induce latent infection in APC-T-cell co-cultures. We compared the RNA expression profiles of APC subpopulations that could and could not induce latency in non-proliferating CD4+ T-cells. Gene expression analysis, comparing the mDC, SLAN+ DC and CD14+ monocyte subpopulations to pDC identified 53 upregulated genes that encode proteins expressed on the plasma membrane that could signal to CD4+ T-cells via cell-cell interactions (32 genes), immune checkpoints (IC) (5 genes), T-cell activation (9 genes), regulation of apoptosis (5 genes), antigen presentation (1 gene) and through unknown ligands (1 gene). CONCLUSIONS: APC subpopulations from the myeloid lineage, specifically mDC subpopulations and CD14+ monocytes, were able to efficiently induce post-integration HIV-1 latency in non-proliferating CD4+ T-cells in vitro. Inhibition of key pathways involved in mDC-T-cell interactions and HIV-1 latency may provide novel targets to eliminate HIV latency. mRNA profiles of sorted, pure antigen presenting cells including, CD1c+ myleoid dendirtic cells (mDC), SLAN+ mDC, CD14+ monocytes and plasmacytoid DC (pDC), were generated using next generation sequencing in triplicate, using Illumina Illumina Hiseq 2000.

Project description:While dendritic cells (DCs) are known to play a major role in the process of vaccination, the mechanisms by which vaccines induce protective immunity in humans remain elusive. Herein, we used gene microarrays to characterize the transcriptional programs induced over time in human monocyte-derived DCs (moDCs) in vitro in response to influenza H1N1 Brisbane, Salmonella enterica and Staphylococcus aureus. We built a data-driven modular analytical framework focused on 204 pathogen-induced gene clusters. The expression of these modules was analyzed in response to 16 well-defined ligands, targeting TLRs, cytoplasmic PAMP receptors and cytokine receptors. This multi-dimensional framework covers the major biological functions of APC, including the IFN response, inflammation, DC maturation, T cell activation, antigen processing, cell motility and histone regulation. This framework was used to characterize the response of monocytes and moDCs to 14 commercially available vaccines. These vaccines displayed quantitatively and qualitatively distinct modular signatures in monocytes and DCs, in particular Fluzone and Pneumovax, highlighting the functional and phenotypic differences between APC subsets. This modular framework allows the application of systems immunology approaches to study early transcriptional changes in human APC subsets in response to pathogens and vaccines, which might guide the development of improved vaccines. 64 samples of IL4 DC, and 64 samples of monocytes stimulated by media (controls, designated 1 and 2 to indicate biological replicates), Menomune (Neisseiria meningitis vaccine, MGL), Fluzone 09-10 (Influenza vaccine, FZ), Havrix (Hepatitis A vaccine, HEPA), Ixiaro (Japanese encephalitis vaccine, JPE), ActHib (Haemophilus influenza vaccine, HIB) and Pneumovax (Pneumococcus vaccine, PVX), Engerix-B (Hepatitis B vaccine, HEPB), Zostavax (Herpes Zoster vaccine, HER), and Gardasil (Human Papilloma virus vaccine, HPV), LPS, Ipol (Polio vaccine, POL), Rabies vaccine (RAB), toxoid-based vaccine (TDAP), Varivax (Varicella vaccine, VAR)

Project description:In mice, two restricted DC progenitors, macrophage-dendritic progenitor (MDP) and common dendritic cell progenitor (CDP) demonstrate increasing commitment of DC lineage as they sequentially lose granulocyte and monocyte potential respectively. Identifying these progenitors has enabled understanding of the role of DCs and monocytes in immunity and tolerance in mice. In humans, however, restricted monocyte and DC progenitors remain unknown. Progress in studying human DC development has been hampered by lack of an in vitro culture system that recapitulates in vivo DC hematopoiesis. Here we report a culture system that supports development of CD34+ hematopoietic stem cell progenitors into the three major human DC subsets, monocytes, granulocytes, NK and B cells. Using this culture system we defined the pathway for human DC development, and revealed the sequential origin of human DCs from increasingly restricted progenitors: a granulocyte-monocyte-DC progenitor (hGMDP) that develops into a monocyte-DC progenitor (hMDP) that develops into monocytes and a common DC progenitor (hCDP) that is restricted to produce the three major DC subsets. The phenotype of the DC progenitors partially overlaps with granulocyte monocyte progenitors (GMPs). These progenitors reside in human cord blood and bone marrow but not in the blood or lymphoid tissues in the steady state. We performed whole transcriptome expression analysis on monocytes and subsets of dendritic cells i.e. CD1c+ DCs, CD141+ DCs and CD303+ pDCs isolated from blood or differentiated in culture from cord blood CD34+ cells in presence of MS5 stromal cells and Flt3l, GM-CSF and SCF cytokines.

Project description:Dendritic cells (DC) localize throughout the body, where they sense and capture invading pathogens to induce protective immune responses. Hence, harnessing the biology of tissue-resident DC is crucial for the rational design of vaccines against pathogens. Herein, we characterized the transcriptomes of four antigen presenting cell (APC) subsets from the human vagina (vLC, vCD14- DC, vCD14+ DC, vMM-NM-&) and compared them to those of three skin DC (sDC) subsets and blood myeloid DC. We find that APC genomic fingerprints are significantly influenced by the tissue of origin as well as by individual APC subsets. Nonetheless, CD14+ APC from both vagina and skin are geared towards innate immunity and pro-inflammatory responses, whereas CD14- DC, particularly sLC, vLC, and vCD14- DC, display both Th2-inducing and regulatory phenotypes. We also identified vAPC subset-specific cellular and functional biomarkers that will guide the design of mucosal vaccines against sexually transmitted pathogens. Vaginal and skin tissues were obtained from female patients who underwent pelvic or cosmetic surgeries under protocols approved by the Institutional Review Board (IRB) of Baylor Research Institute (BRI). Patients were not infected with HIV, HCV or TB and did not display inflammation in the tissues. No other diagnosis information was available. Blood from healthy female volunteers was obtained under a protocol approved by the IRB of BRI. 87 total samples. 6 Blood mDC; 16 Dermal CD1c+CD14-; 10 Epidermal LC; 12 Vaginal CD1c+CD14-; 13 Vaginal CD1c+CD14+; 7 Vaginal HLADR- w/ 2 replicates (Vaginal HLADR-_VM610 and Vaginal HLADR-_VM611); 9Vaginal LC; 14 Vaginal Macrophage.

Project description:Dendritic cells (DCs) are the most potent antigen (Ag)-presenting cells. Whereas immature DCs down-regulate T cell responses to induce/maintain immunological tolerance, mature DCs promote immunity. To amplify their functions, DCs communicate with neighboring DCs through soluble mediators, cell-to-cell contact and vesicle exchange. Transfer of nanovesicles (<100nm) derived from the endocytic pathway (termed exosomes) represents a novel mechanism of DC-to-DC communication. The facts that exosomes contain exosome-shuttle microRNAs (miRNAs), and DC functions can be regulated by exogenous miRNAs, suggest that DC-to-DC interactions could be mediated through exosome-shuttle miRNAs, an hypothesis that remains to be tested. Importantly, the mechanism of transfer of exosome-shuttle miRNAs from the exosome lumen to the cytosol of target cells is unknown. Here, we demonstrate that DCs release exosomes with different miRNAs depending on the maturation of the DCs. By visualizing spontaneous transfer of exosomes between DCs, we demonstrate that exosomes fused with the target DCs, the latter followed by release of the exosome content into the DC cytosol. Importantly, exosome-shuttle miRNAs are functional, as they repress target mRNAs of acceptor DCs. Our findings unveil a mechanism of transfer of exosome-shuttle miRNAs between DCs and its role as a means of communication and post-transcriptional regulation between DCs. The study has analyzed the microRNA content of 4 samples of immature exosomes, 4 samples of matures exosomes, 2 samples of immature bone-marrow-derived DCs, and 2 samples of mature bone marrow-derived DCs.

Project description:In order to detect the microRNA expression profile of in vitro generated dendritic cells , purified monocytes from PBMCs were used as dendritic cell (DCs) precursors and were cultured in medium with cocktail for differentiation and maturation to immature dendritic cells (iDCs) and mature dendritic cells (mDCs). microRNA samples were isolated from precursor, iDCs and mDCs and used for microarray-based microRNAs expression profiles. To generate enough amount of immature DC (iDCs) and mature DCs (mDCs), monocytes were differentiated with GM-CSF and rhIL-4 for 2 days and maturated in the presence of TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6 and PGE2 for another 2 days. With the anticipation to insight developmental-stage-specific microRNAs with potential functions related to monocyte derived DCs, global microRNAs expression profiling was set using microarray technology.microRNA expression profiles were performed in triplicate independent experiments starting for 3 groups of precursor, iDC and mDC generated from different blood donors.
