Antibody repertoire sequencing of human tonsillar B cell subsets

ABSTRACT: In response to antigen challenge, human B cells clonally expand, undergo selection and differentiate within secondary lymphoid tissues to produce mature B cell subsets and high affinity antibodies necessary for an effective immune response. However, the interplay between affinity, antibody class and different B cell fates has proved challenging to decipher in primary human tissue. We have applied an integrated analysis of bulk and single-cell antibody repertoires paired with single-cell transcriptomics of human B cells from a model secondary lymphoid tissue. Specifically, here we have performed bulk B cell repertoire sequencing of the immunoglobulin heavy chain (IgH) for sorted B cell subsets from paediatric tonsil tissue. Matched single-cell gene expression and single-cell VDJ data are also available for the same patient donors.

Project description:Memory B cells play a fundamental role in host defenses against viruses. This dataset aimed at understanding the recruitment and remodeling of the memory B cell repertoire in the context of BA.1-breakthrough infection in BNT162b2 mRNA vaccinated individuals. All four donors enrolled in the study had received a booster (3rd dose) of BNT162b2 mRNA vaccine and had no history of prior SARS-CoV-2 infection. All four experienced a documented breakthrough infection between 12/24/2021 and 01/30/2022 when BA.1 was responsible for > 85% of SARS-CoV-2 infections in France. All donors were sampled at Henri Mondor University Hospital (AP-HP, Paris France), and samples used for scRNA-seq were collected shortly after breakthrough infection (PO_M0 samples; between day 7 and day 18) and 5 to 6 months after infection (PO_M6 samples; between day 152 and day 173). Clinical and biological characteristics of these patients are summarized in the Patient_information.csv file. For each sample, an initial pool of 50.000 total peripheral CD3-CD14-CD56- CD19+ IgD- cells was always sorted and afterward, to enrich for cells of interest, only CD19+CD38low antibody secreting cells (ASCs), CD19hi IgD+ cells and SARS-CoV-2 Spike/RBD PE/tetramer positive B cells were sorted, leading to approximately 55000-60000 total sorted cells per sample. Sorted cells were then counted and up to 20 000 cells were loaded in the 10x Chromium Controller to generate single-cell gel-beads in emulsion. The scRNA-seq libraries for gene expression (mRNA), ADT and VDJ BCR libraries were generated using Chromium Next GEM Single Cell V(D)J Reagent Kit v.1.1 with Feature Barcoding (10x Genomics) according to the manufacturer’s protocol. PBMCs were initially isolated from venous blood samples via standard density gradient centrifugation and used after cryopreservation at -150°C. PBMCs were thawed using RPMI-1640 (Gibco) 10% FBS, washed twice and approximately 15x106 cells were then resuspended in 100µL PBS 2%FBS and incubated for 40 minutes at 4°C with a decoy tetramer (biotinylated Bovine Serum albumin coupled with BV785 streptavidin) and Hu-1 Spike, BA.1 Spike, Hu-1 RBD and BA.1 RBD tetramers (constructed using PE-labelled TotalSeqC® streptavidin with different barcodes for each individual antigens (see feature_reference.csv.gz files).). Cells were washed, resuspended in 100µL PBS 2%FBS and stained with a cocktail of fluorochrome conjugated (CD3, CD14 both APC-H7 at 1:100 each; CD15 and CD56 BV785 at 1:100 each, CD19 PECF594 at 1:100, IgD FITC at 1:100, CD38 PercP-Cy5.5 at 1:100) and TotalSeqC® (CD38, CD27, CD71, CD21, CD11c, CD39, FCRL5, CD95 all at 1:40 (all obtained from BioLegend)) antibodies for 40 minutes on ice. Viable cells were identified using a LIVE/DEAD Fixable Aqua Dead Cell Stain Kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific, 1:200) incubated with conjugated antibodies. Two distinct sorts were performed for each donor: one at the early time-point (PO_M0) and one at the 6 months’ time-point (PO_M6).
