CD28H expression identifies resident memory CD8 + T cells with less cytotoxicity in human peripheral tissues and cancers.

ABSTRACT: The CD28H/B7-H5 pathway is a newly identified pathway of the B7 family. In human peripheral blood, the receptor CD28H is preferentially expressed on naïve T cells and repetitive stimulation of T cells leads to the loss of CD28H expression. Here we examined the expression of the CD28H/B7-H5 pathway in human peripheral tissues, as well as in human cancers. We found that CD28H is preferentially expressed on T cells with tissue-resident phenotypes (TRM). Supporting that, stimulation via IL-15 and TGF-β, presumably major cytokines essential for TRM cell homeostasis, sustains CD28H expression on T cells. The ligand B7-H5 is constitutively expressed on normal epithelium of human oral-gastrointestinal tracts. In human cancers, CD28H is preferentially present on tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) with TRM features and identifies a TRM subset with less cytotoxicity. Taken together, our studies suggest that the CD28H/B7-H5 pathway involves the interactions between TRM cells and epithelium, and could be important for human TRM homeostasis and function.

Project description:BackgroundStudies assessing immune parameters typically utilize human PBMCs or murine splenocytes to generate data that is interpreted as representative of immune status. Using splenocytes, we have shown memory CD4-T cells that expand following systemic immunostimulatory therapies undergo rapid IFNg-mediated activation induced cell death (AICD) resulting in a net loss of total CD4-T cells which correlates with elevated PD-1 expression. This is in contrast to CD8-T cells which expand with minimal PD-1 upregulation and apoptosis. In this study we expand upon our previous work by evaluating CD4 and CD8-T cell phenotype and distribution in peripheral organs which are more representative of immune responses occurring at metastatic sites following immunotherapy.MethodsPhenotypic assessment of T cells in both lymphoid (spleen and LN) as well as peripheral organs (liver and lungs) in control and immunotherapy treated mice was performed to survey the impact of location on memory phenotype and activation marker status. Peripheral blood from patients undergoing systemic high dose IL-2 was also assessed for expression of PD-1 and memory phenotype.ResultsHere we reveal that, similar to what occurs in the spleen and lymph nodes, CD4-T cell numbers decreased while CD8-T cells expanded at these peripheral sites. In contrast to having differential expression of PD-1 as occurs in the spleen, both CD4 and CD8-T cells had significantly elevated levels of PD-1 in both the liver and lungs. Further analysis correlated PD-1 expression to CD62Llow (T effector/effector memory,TE/EM) expression which are more prevalent in CD4-T cells in general as well as CD8-T cells in peripheral organs. Similar elevated PD-1 expression on TE/EM cells was observed in patients undergoing systemic high-dose IL-2 therapy.ConclusionsThese data highlight PD-1 expressing and/or TE/EM subsets of T cells in circulation as more representative of cells at immune sites and underscore the importance of valuation both in lymphoid as well as target organs when making determinations about immune status.Trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov NCT01416831.
