Project description:CD4 T cell help is critical for both the generation and maintenance of germinal centers, and T follicular helper (TFH) cells are the CD4 T cell subset required for this process. SAP (SH2D1A) expression in CD4 T cells is essential for germinal center development. However, SAP-deficient mice have only a moderate defect in TFH differentiation as defined by common TFH surface markers. CXCR5+ TFH cells are found within the germinal center as well as along the boundary regions of T/B cell zones. Here we show that germinal center associated T cells (GC TFH) can be identified by their co-expression of CXCR5 and the GL7 epitope, allowing for phenotypic and functional analysis of TFH and GC TFH populations. Here we show GC TFH are a functionally discrete subset of further polarized TFH cells, with enhanced B cell help capacity and a specialized ability to produce IL-4 in a TH2-independent manner. Strikingly, SAP-deficient mice have an absence of the GC TFH subset and SAP- TFH are defective in IL-4 and IL-21 production. We further demonstrate that SLAM (Slamf1, CD150), a surface receptor that utilizes SAP signaling, is specifically required for IL-4 production by GC TFH. GC TFH cells require IL-4 and IL-21 production for optimal help to B cells. These data illustrate complexities of SAP-dependent SLAM family receptor signaling, revealing a prominent role for SLAM receptor ligation in IL-4 production by germinal center CD4 T cells but not in TFH and GC TFH differentiation. This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series: GSE21379: Expression Data from WT and Sh2d1a-/- in vivo follicular helper CD4 T cells (TFH) versus non follicular helper CD4 T cells (non-TFH) GSE21380: Expression Data from in vivo Tfh vs GC Tfh vs non-Tfh Refer to individual Series

Project description:Loss of Elp3 in CD4 T cells hindered the development of an optimal T follicular helper T cell (TFH) response. To understand the molecular pathway by which Elp3 is necessary for TFH responses, mice deficient for Elp3 in T cells and WT littermate were immunized with ovalbumin emulsified with complete Freund Adjuvant. 8 days later, TFH were sorted from the draining lymph nodes and submitted for RNAseq

Project description:The aim of the project was the identification of the transcriptional signature of Tfh cells that emerge following immunization with different adjuvants. For this purpose C57Bl/6 mice, bearing a Foxp3-GFP reporter system, were immunized with OVA-IFA or OVA-CpG. At day 11 post-immunization, Foxp3 negative Tfh cells were FACS-sorted from the draining lymph nodes and processed for single cell RNA sequencing.

Project description:Epigenetic changes, including histone methylation, control T cell differentiation and memory formation, though the enzymes that mediate these processes are not clear. We show that UTX, a histone H3 lysine 27 (H3K27) demethylase, promotes the generation of T follicular helper (Tfh) cells, a CD4+ T cell subset essential for B cell antibody generation and clearance of chronic viral infections. Mice with T cell specific UTX deletion (UTX TKO mice) had fewer Tfh cells, showed defective germinal center formation, lacked virus-specific IgG production, and were unable to resolve chronic lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus infection. In UTX TKO T cells, decreased expression of IL-6R±, and other Tfh-related loci, was associated with increased H3K27 methylation. Additionally, Turner Syndrome subjects, who are predisposed to chronic ear infections, have reduced UTX expression in immune cells and decreased Tfh frequency. Thus, we identify a critical link between UTX in T cells and immunity to infection. Mice were infected with chronic LCMV and sorted for Tfh on day 21 pi (sorted for: CD4+CXCR5+CD62Llo T cell). ChIP-Seq and RNA-Seq on WT and Utx KO cells.

Project description:Follicular helper T (Tfh) are a subset of CD4+ T helper cells that provide help to germinal center B cells and mediate the development of long-lived humoral immunity. Tfh cells dysregulation is associated with several major autoimmune diseases. Although recent studies showed Tfh cells differentiation is controlled by the transcription factor Bcl6, cytokines and cell-cell signals, limited information is available on the proteome and post-translational modifications (PTM) of proteins in human Tfh cells. In this study, using TMT labeling technique, antibody-based affinity enrichment and high-resolution LC-MS/MS analysis, we investigated quantitative proteome and acetylome in human naive CD4+ T cells and in vitro induced Tfh (iTfh) cells. In total, we identified 802 up-regulated proteins and 598 down-regulated proteins at the threshold of 1.5 folds in iTfh cells compared to naive CD4+ T cells. With the aid of intensive bioinformatics, biological process, cellular compartment, molecular function, KEGG pathway and protein-protein interaction of these differentially expressed proteins were revealed. Moreover, our acetylome data showed that 22 lysine acetylated proteins are up-regulated and 26 lysine acetylated proteins are down-regulated in iTfh cells compared to the naive CD4+ T cells, among which 11 differentially acetylated lysine residues in core histone were identified, indicating proteins acetylation and epigenetic mechanism are involved in regulating Tfh cells differentiation. These data provide a significant resource for studies of Tfh differentiation and normal and perturbed Tfh cell function.

Project description:Type 1 regulatory T (Tr1) cells are one of the regulatory T cell subsets that are characterized by the production of high amount of IL-10 and lack of FOXP3 expression. Lymphocyte-activation gene 3 (LAG3) is a CD4 homologue molecule and we have previously reported that LAG3 is expressed on IL-10 producing regulatory T cells. However, naturally occurring Tr1 cells in human secondary lymphoid tissue have not been detected. We identified CD4+CD25-LAG3+ T cells in human tonsil. We compared mRNA expression of five CD4+ T cell subsets in tonsil using microarray analysis (CD4+CD25-LAG3+ T cells, CD4+CD25-CXCR5+PD-1+ follicular helper T cells (TFH), CD4+CD25+ T cells, CD4+CD25-LAG3-CD45RO+ cells and CD4+CD25-LAG3-CD45RO- cells). A human tonsil was obtained from a patient undergoing routine tonsillectomy, and five tonsillar CD4+ T cell subsets were sorted (each 1 x 10^5 cells). There is no biological replication.

Project description:T follicular helper (Tfh) cells are a subset of CD4+ T helper (Th) cells that migrate into germinal centers and promote B cell maturation into memory B and plasma cells. Tfh cells are necessary for promotion of protective humoral immunity following pathogen challenge, but when aberrantly regulated, drive pathogenic antibody formation in autoimmunity and undergo neoplastic transformation in angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma and other primary cutaneous T-cell lymphomas. Limited information is available on the expression and regulation of genes in human Tfh cells. Using a fluorescence activated cell sorting-based strategy, we obtained primary Tfh and non-Tfh T effector (Teff) cells from tonsils and prepared genome-wide maps of active, intermediate, and poised enhancers determined by ChIP-seq, with parallel transcriptome analyses determined by RNA-seq. Tfh cell enhancers were enriched near genes highly expressed in lymphoid cells or involved in lymphoid cell function, with many mapping to sites previously associated with autoimmune disease in genome-wide association studies. A group of active enhancers unique to Tfh cells associated with differentially expressed genes was identified. Fragments from these regions directed expression in reporter gene assays. These data provide a significant resource for studies of T lymphocyte development and differentiation and normal and perturbed Tfh cell function. Using a fluorescence activated cell sorting-based strategy, we obtained primary Tfh and non-Tfh T effector (Teff) cells from tonsils and prepared genome-wide maps of active, intermediate, and poised enhancers determined by ChIP-seq, with parallel transcriptome analyses determined by RNA-seq.
