Lymphopenia-induced T cell exhaustion in STING gain-of-function mouse model

ABSTRACT: STING gain-of-function (GOF) mutations lead to T cell lymphopenia, in the context of severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) for STING GOF V154M mice. This T cell lymphopenia, which is of central origin, has been described as type I IFN independent and associated with dysfunctions of the rare mature T cells found in the periphery. To better describe the biological mechanisms of these dysfunctions, we performed a transcriptomic analysis by RNA-seq on sorted splenic CD4+ and CD8+ mature T cells from STING GOF mice. We highlighted an unexpected T cell exhaustion phenotype that could partly explain their dysfunctions. Acquired very early in life, but only once the peripheral environment is reached, the phenotype appeared to depend neither on type I IFNs, nor on the intrinsic activation of STING in T or stromal cells. Mechanistically, the few mature T cells reaching the periphery seem to be rapidly impacted by the lymphopenic environment through increased antigenic and IL-7 stimulations that could lead to their exhaustion. By using STING GOF long term-hematopoietic stem cells (LT-HSC) transplantations with supportive wild-type bone marrow (BM) cells, we prevented the T cell exhaustion of STING GOF T cells in the resulting non lymphopenic context. With the support of lymphopenic RAG1 hypomorphic mice developing the phenotype, our data uncover a lymphopenia-mediated T cell exhaustion mechanism in STING GOF mice, for which a synergistic effect of the mutation is also envisaged.

Expression data from murine Treg subsets defined by CD103 and ICOS expression before and after activation by an in vitro CD4 T cell suppression assay

Project description:Regulatory T cells (Treg) are pivotal for the maintenance of peripheral tolerance by controlling self-reactive, chronic and homeostatic T cell responses. We now report that the increase in Treg suppressive function observed in lymphopenic mice correlates with the degree of lymphopenia and is caused by a higher frequency of a novel subpopulation of CD103posICOSpos cells among peripheral Treg that differentially express multiple Treg signature genes.

Genome-wide ChIP-Seq reveals a dramatic shift in the binding of the transcription factor erythroid Kruppel-like factor during erythrocyte differentiation

Project description:Erythropoiesis is dependent on the activity of transcription factors, including the erythroid-specific erythroid Kruppel-like factor (EKLF). ChIP followed by massively parallel sequencing (ChIP-Seq) is a powerful, unbiased method to map transfactor occupancy. We used ChIP-Seq to study the interactome of EKLF in mouse erythroid progenitor cells and more differentiated erythroblasts. We correlated these results with the nuclear distribution of EKLF, RNA-Seq analysis of the transcriptome, and the occupancy of other erythroid transcription factors. In progenitor cells, EKLF is found predominantly at the periphery of the nucleus, where EKLF primarily occupies the promoter regions of genes and acts as a transcriptional activator. In erythroblasts, EKLF is distributed throughout the nucleus, and erythroblast-specific EKLF occupancy is predominantly in intragenic regions. In progenitor cells, EKLF modulates general cell growth and cell cycle regulatory pathways, whereas in erythroblasts EKLF is associated with repression of these pathways. The EKLF interactome shows very little overlap with the interactomes of GATA1, GATA2, or TAL1, leading to a model in which EKLF directs programs that are independent of those regulated by the GATA factors or TAL1. (Blood.2011;118(17):e139-e148) We used ChIP-Seq to study the interactome of EKLF in mouse erythroid progenitor cells and more differentiated erythroblasts and RNA-Seq analysis of the transcriptome.

Influence of T and B lymphocytes on the antigen presentation capacities of splenic conventional dendritic cells

Project description:The goal of this project was to characterize DCs from lymphopenic mice, like RAG (recombination activated gene) deficient mice and to examine the influence of mature B and T cells on the antigen presenting ability of splenic cDCs. We demonstrate how cellular cross-talk can shape the character and function of cDCs. Lymphopenic conditions, where splenic cDCs have to develop and differentiate, drastically change their character and their ability to cross-present soluble antigen.

Gene expression profiling of human tissue samples using SAGE-Seq

Project description:We present a powerful application of ultra high-throughput sequencing, SAGE-Seq, for the accurate quantification of normal and neoplastic mammary epithelial cell transcriptomes. We develop data analysis pipelines that allow the mapping of sense and antisense strands of mitochondrial and RefSeq genes, the normalization between libraries, and the identification of differentially expressed genes. We find that the diversity of cancer transcriptomes is significantly higher than that of normal cells. Our analysis indicates that transcript discovery plateaus at 10 million reads/sample, and suggests a minimum desired sequencing depth around 5 million reads. Comparison of SAGE-Seq and traditional SAGE on normal and cancerous breast tissues reveals higher sensitivity of SAGE-Seq to detect less abundant genes including those encoding for known breast cancer-related transcription factors and G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). SAGE-Seq is able to identify genes and pathways abnormally activated in breast cancer that traditional SAGE failed to call. SAGE-Seq is a powerful method for the identification of biomarkers and therapeutic targets in human disease.

Expression analysis from Runx2-deficient pDCs from mouse

Project description:Plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) rapidly produce type I interferon (IFN-I) in response to viruses and are essential for antiviral immune responses. Although related to classical dendritic cells (cDCs) in their development and expression profile, pDCs possess many distinct features. Unlike cDCs, pDCs develop in the bone marrow (BM) and emerge into peripheral lymphoid organs and tissues as fully differentiated cells. We now report that pDCs specifically express Runx2, a Runt family transcription factor that is essential for bone development. Runx2-deficient murine pDCs developed normally in the BM but were greatly reduced in the periphery. The defect was cell-intrinsic and was associated with the retention of mature Ly49Q+ pDCs in the BM. Runx2 was required for the expression of several pDC-enriched genes including chemokine receptors Ccr2 and Ccr5. Mature pDCs expressed high levels of Ccr5 at the surface, and Ccr5-deficient pDCs in a competitive setting were reduced in the periphery relative to the BM. Thus, Runx2 is required for the emergence of mature BM pDCs into the periphery, in a process that is partially dependent on Ccr5. These results establish Runx2 as a lineage-specific regulator of immune system development. Total BM cells were isolated from Runx2-/- and wildtype fetal liver chimeras 2 months post-reconstitution. BM cells were stained with antibodies against surface markers CD11b, CD11c, BST2, and B220. CD11b- BST2+ B220+ pDCs were purified by flow cytometry on a BD FACS Aria. RNA was purified immediately and prepared for microarray analysis using the Ambion WT labeling kit. Expression was analyzed using Affymetrix Mouse Gene 1.0 ST.

Transcription profiling of human FoxP3+CD4+CD25+high regulatory T cells (Tregs) isolated from recent-onset type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1D) patients and controls

Project description:Naturally occurring FoxP3+CD4+CD25+high regulatory T cells (Tregs) play an important role in dominant tolerance, suppressing auto-reactive CD4+CD25- T cell activity. Although Tregs from T1D subjects are functionally deficient, there is little knowledge of the molecular mechanisms that orchestrate this loss of Treg function. We observed increased apoptosis (by a novel YOPRO-1/7AAD dual staining protocol) and decreased suppression in polyclonal Tregs in the periphery from high at-risk and T1D subjects. We hypothesize that prior to and during the onset of disease, Tregs lack pro-survival signals and are caught up in a relatively deficient cytokine milieu whose effects may be detectable in the periphery. Microarray analysis was performed on un-stimulated Tregs from 12 subjects with newly diagnosed T1D and 15 healthy controls. Experiment Overall Design: Recent-onset T1D subjects were T1D patients diagnosed within 1 year. At the time of each visit, the following clinical measurements were taken: HbA1c, glucose level, height, weight and BMI. The presence of auto-antibodies was measured from peripheral blood. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were collected and Tregs were isolated using FACS isolation. RNA was isolated, amplified and cRNA was fragmented and hybridized to Affymetrix whole genome U133Plus2.0 arrays having 54675 probe-sets. Bayesian Hierarchical analysis (BGX) was used to analyze the data.

Tissue-specific inflammation induced by constitutively active STING is mediated by enhanced TNF signaling

Project description:Constitutive activation of STING by gain-of-function mutations triggers manifestation of the systemic autoinflammatory disease STING-associated vasculopathy with onset in infancy (SAVI) in humans and in mice. Murine SAVI is characterized by T cell lymphopenia, severe inflammatory interstitial lung disease, neuroinflammation and neurodegeneration with only limited contribution of type I interferon signaling. Here, we show that pharmacologic inhibition of TNF signaling in SAVI mice improved T cell lymphopenia, but had no effect on interstitial lung disease. However, complete blocking of TNF receptor signaling by knocking out TNFR1 and TNFR2 in SAVI mice rescued both, loss of thymocytes as well as interstitial lung disease. Furthermore, chronic STING signaling in lung endothelial cells of diseased mice enhanced transcription of cytokines, chemokines and adhesions proteins resulting in increased transendothelial migration of neutrophils across the endothelial barrier that could be reverted by genetic inactivation of TNFR1 and 2. Thus, our results demonstrate a pivotal role of TNFR-signaling in the development of SAVI-associated lung disease and suggest this pathway as promising target to ameliorate human SAVI

Altered antisense-to-sense transcript ratios in breast cancer: Sage-Seq

Project description:Transcriptome profiling studies suggest that a large fraction of the genome is transcribed and many transcripts function independent of their protein coding potential. The relevance of noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) in normal physiological processes and in tumorigenesis is increasingly recognized. Here, we describe consistent and significant differences in the distribution of sense and antisense transcripts between normal and neoplastic breast tissues. Many of the differentially expressed antisense transcripts likely represent long ncRNAs. A subset of genes that mainly generate antisense transcripts in normal but not cancer cells is involved in essential metabolic processes. These findings suggest fundamental differences in global RNA regulation between normal and cancer cells that might play a role in tumorigenesis.

Epigenetic regulation of cell type-specific expression patterns in the human mammary epithelium [SAGE-Seq]

Project description:Here we describe the application of high-throughput sequencing technology for profiling histone and DNA methylation, and gene expression patterns of normal human mammary progenitor-enriched and luminal lineage-committed cells. We observed significant differences in histone H3 lysine 27 tri-methylation (H3K27me3) enrichment and DNA methylation of genes expressed in a cell type-specific manner, suggesting their regulation by epigenetic mechanisms and a dynamic interplay between the two processes that together define developmental potential. The technologies we developed and the epigenetically regulated genes we identified will accelerate the characterization of primary cell epigenomes and the dissection of human mammary epithelial lineage-commitment and luminal differentiation.
