Direct reprogramming of fibroblasts into antigen-presenting dendritic cells

ABSTRACT: Ectopic expression of transcription factors has been used to reprogram differentiated somatic cells toward pluripotency or to directly reprogram them to other somatic cell lineages. This concept has been explored in the context of regenerative medicine. Here, we set out to generate dendritic cells (DCs) capable of presenting antigens from mouse and human fibroblasts. By screening combinations of 18 transcription factors that are expressed in DCs, we have identified PU.1, IRF8, and BATF3 transcription factors as being sufficient to reprogram both mouse and human fibroblasts to induced DCs (iDCs). iDCs acquire a conventional DC type 1–like transcriptional program, with features of interferon-induced maturation. iDCs secrete inflammatory cytokines and have the ability to engulf, process, and present antigens to T cells. Furthermore, we demonstrate that murine iDCs generated here were able to cross-present antigens to CD8+ T cells. Our reprogramming system should facilitate better understanding of DC specification programs and serve as a platform for the development of patient-specific DCs for immunotherapy.

Specific requirement of the p84/p110γ complex of PI3Kγ for antibody-activated, inducible cross-presentation in murine type 2 DCs

Project description:Cross-presentation by MHCI is optimally efficient in type 1 dendritic cells (DC) due to their high capacity for antigen processing. However, through specific pathways, other DCs, such as type 2 DCs and inflammatory DCs (iDCs) can also cross-present antigens. FcγR-mediated uptake by type 2 DC and iDC subsets mediates antibody-dependent cross-presentation and activation of CD8+ T cell responses. Here, we identify an important role for the p84 regulatory subunit of PI3Kγ in mediating efficient cross-presentation of exogenous antigens in otherwise inefficient cross-presenting cells, such as type 2 DCs and GM-CSF-derived iDCs. We show that FcγR-mediated cross-presentation on type 2 and iDCs depends on the enzymatic activity of the p84/p110γ complex of PI3Kγ, which controls the activity of the NADPH oxidase NOX2 and ROS production in murine spleen type 2 DCs and GM-CSF-derived iDCs. In contrast, p84/p110γ is largely dispensable for cross-presentation by type 1 DCs. These findings suggest that PI3Kγ-targeted therapies, currently considered for oncological practice, may interfere with the ability of type 2 DCs and iDCs to cross-present antigens contained in immune complexes.

Inhibition of p38 MAPK in DC progenitor cells endows DCs with superior immunogenicity

Project description:Analysis of the p38 MAPK pathway in regulation of dendritic cells (DCs) differentiation at the gene expression level. Bone marrow cells were cultured with mGM-CSF (20 ng/ml) in the presence of 1.5 mM of SB202190 or 0.1% DMSO. At day 7, semi-adherent cells were collected as immature DCs (iDCs). iDCs were matured by TNF-a (10 ng/ml) and IL-1b (10 ng/ml) for 48 hours. Results showed that p38 MAPK activity in DC progenitor cells acts as an antigen presentation attenuator, and disabling this critical brake during DC differentiation endows DCs with enhanced immunogenicity, which may be useful for the induction of antitumor immune responses. Total RNA was obtained from 2-day-cultured bone marrow cells, iDCs and mature DCs.

Machine-learning Directed Conversion of Glioblastoma to Dendritic Cell-like Antigen Presenting Cells as Cancer Immunotherapy

Project description:Here, we report the development and application of a machine-learning precision method to identify cell fate determinants (CFD) that specifically reprogram GBM into induced antigen-presenting cells with DC-like functions (iDC-APC). In murine GBM models, iDC-APCs acquired DC-like morphology, regulatory gene expression profile and functions, including phagocytosis, direct presentation of endogenous antigens, and, especially, vigorous cross presentation of exogenous antigens comparable to natural DCs to prime naïve CD8+ CTLs, a hallmark DC function critical for anti-tumor immunity.

Molecular signatures of maturing dendritic cells: implications for testing the quality dendritic cell therapies

Project description:Abstract Background: Dendritic cells (DCs) are often produced by granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GMCSF) and interleukin-4 (IL-4) stimulation of monocytes. To improve the effectiveness of DC adoptive immune cancer therapy, many different agents have been used to mature DCs. We analyzed the kinetics of DC maturation by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and interferon-g (IFN-g) induction in order to characterize the usefulness of mature DCs (mDCs) for immune therapy and to identify biomarkers for assessing the quality of mDCs. Methods: Peripheral blood mononuclear cells were collected from 6 healthy subjects by apheresis, monocytes were isolated by elutriation, and immature DCs (iDCs) were produced by 3 days of culture with GM-CSF and IL-4. The iDCs were sampled after 4, 8 and 24 hours in culture with LPS and IFN-g and were then assessed by flow cytometry, ELISA, and global gene and microRNA (miRNA) expression analysis. Results: After 24 hours of LPS and IFN-g stimulation, DC surface expression of CD80, CD83, CD86, and HLA Class II antigens were up-regulated. Th1 attractant genes such as CXCL9, CXCL10, CXCL11 and CCL5 were up-regulated during maturation but not Treg attractants such as CCL22 and CXCL12. The expression of classical mDC biomarker genes CD83, CCR7, CCL5, CCL8, SOD2, MT2A, OASL, GBP1 and HES4 were up-regulated throughout maturation while MTIB, MTIE, MTIG, MTIH, GADD45A and LAMP3 were only up-regulated late in maturation. The expression of miR-155 was up-regulated 8-fold in mDCs. Conclusion: DCs, matured with LPS and IFN-g, were characterized by increased levels of Th1 attractants as opposed to Treg attractants and may be particularly effective for adoptive immune cancer therapy.

Proteome and phophoproteome analysis of distinct dendritic cell maturation states

Project description:Depending on their environment and their exposure to various factors, dendritic cells (DCs) exist in different activation and maturation states. The versatility of DCs allows them to shape the immune system towards an inflammatory or tolerant state depending on the antigens and the environment they encounter. In this study we aimed to provide a proteomic catalogue of differentially expressed and differentially phosphorylated proteins between distinct DC maturation states, brought about by bacteria that differ in their endotoxicity. To achieve this, we have performed unlabeled shotgun proteomics and phosphoproteomics on cell fractions obtained from murine bone marrow DC cultures. The symbiont B. vulgatus stimulation was used to obtain semi-mature DCs, and the pathobiont E. coli stimulation was used to obtain mature DCs. For both shotgun proteome and phosphoproteome analysis two biological replicates consisting of 8 mice were used. Each biological replicate were run as 3 technical replicates.

microRNA expression signature of monocyte-derived dendritic cells (DCs) from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs)

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.

Reprogramming of mouse somatic cells into pluripotent stem cells using a combination of small molecules

Project description:Somatic cells can be reprogrammed to generate induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) by overexpression of four transcription factors, Oct4, Klf4, Sox2, and c-Myc. Bmi1 is responsible for conversion of adult mouse astrocytes and fibroblasts into neural stem cell-like cells and conversion of fibroblasts into iPSCs under enforced expression of Oct4. Here, in the first step of generating iPSCs, stable intermediate cells were generated from mouse astrocytes by Bmi1 in the absence of other transcription factors. These cells [called induced epiblast stem cell (EpiSC)-like cells (iEpiSCLCs)] are similar to EpiSCs in terms of expression of specific markers, epigenetic state, and ability to differentiate into three germ layers. Treatment with MEK/ERK and GSK3 pathway inhibitors in the presence of leukemia inhibitory factor resulted in conversion of iEpiSCLCs into iPSCs that were similar to mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs), suggesting that Bmi1 is sufficient to reprogram astrocytes to pluripotency. Next, Bmi1 function was replaced with Shh activators (oxysterol and purmorphamine), which demonstrated that specific combinations of small molecules alone can reprogram mouse fibroblasts into iPSCs. These iPSCs resembled mESCs in terms of global gene expression profile, epigenetic status, and developmental potential, demonstrating that combinations of small molecules can compensate for reprogramming factors and are sufficient to directly reprogram mouse somatic cells into iPSCs. 4 Affymetrix and 4 Agilent samples

Biogenesis of HLA ligand presentation in immune cells upon activation reveals changes in peptide length preference

Project description:Induction of an effective tumor immunity is a complex process that includes the appropriate presentation of the tumor antigens, activation of specific T cells, and the elimination of malignant cells. Potent and efficient T cell activation is dependent on multiple factors, such as timely expression of co-stimulatory molecules, the differentiation state of professional antigen presenting cells (e.g. dendritic cells; DCs), the functionality of the antigen processing and presentation machinery (APPM), and the repertoire of HLA class I and II-bound peptides (termed immunopeptidome) presented to T cells. So far, how molecular perturbations underlying DCs maturation and differentiation affect the in vivo cross-presented HLA class I and II immunopeptidomes is largely unknown. Yet, this knowledge is crucial for further development of DC-based immunotherapy approaches. We applied a state-of-the-art sensitive MS-based immunopeptidomics approach to characterize the naturally presented HLA-I and -II immunopeptidomes eluted from autologous immune cells having distinct functional and biological states including CD14+ monocytes, immature DC (ImmDC) and mature DC (MaDC) monocyte-derived DCs and naive or activated T and B cells. We revealed a presentation of significantly longer HLA peptides upon activation that is HLA allotype specific. This was apparent in the self-peptidome upon cell activation and in the context of presentation of exogenously loaded antigens. Importantly, a similar trend was also present in a large collection of immunogenic HLA-I epitopes from pathogens, suggesting that peptide length is an important feature with potential implications on the rational design of anti-cancer vaccines.
