The somatically generated T cell receptor CDR3a contributes to the MHC allele specificity of the T cell receptor

ABSTRACT: Mature T cells bearing ab T cell receptors react with foreign antigens bound to alleles of major histocompatibility complex proteins (MHC) that they were exposed to during their development in the thymus, a phenomenon known as positive selection. The structural basis for positive selection has long been debated. Here, using mice expressing one of two different T cell receptor b chains and various MHC alleles, we show that positive selection-induced MHC bias of T cell receptors is affected both by the germline encoded elements of the T cell receptor a and b chain and, surprisingly, dramatically affected by the non germ line encoded CDR3 of the T cell receptor a chain. Thus, in addition to determining specificity for antigen, the non germline encoded elements of T cell receptors may help the proteins cope with the extremely polymorphic nature of major histocompatibility complex products within the species.

MHC II Heterozygosity Limits T Cell Receptor Variability in CD4 T Cells

Project description:αβ T cell receptor (TCR) V(D)J genes code for billions of TCR combinations. However only some appear on peripheral T cells in any individual because, to mature, thymocytes must react with low affinity but not high affinity with thymus expressed MHC/peptides. MHC proteins are very polymorphic. Different alleles bind different peptides. Therefore any individual might express many different MHC alleles to ensure that some peptides from an invader are bound to MHC and activate T cells. However, most individuals express limited numbers of MHC alleles. To explore this we compared the TCR repertoires of naïve, CD4 T cells in mice expressing one or two MHC II alleles. Surprisingly, the TCRs in heterozygotes were less diverse that those in the sum of their MHC II homozygous relatives. Our results suggest that thymus negative selection cancels out the advantages of increased thymic positive selection in the MHC heterozygotes.

Expression levels of HLA-DRB and HLA-DQ are associated with MHC Class II haplotypes in healthy individuals and rheumatoid arthritis patients

Project description:HLA-DRB1 alleles have been associated with several autoimmune diseases. In anti-citrullinated protein antibody positive rheumatoid arthritis (ACPA-positive RA), HLA-DRB1 shared epitope (SE) alleles are the major genetic risk factors. In order to investigate whether expression of different alleles of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) Class II genes influence functions of immune cells, we investigated transcriptomic profiles of a variety of immune cells from healthy individuals carrying different HLA-DRB1 alleles. Sequencing libraries from peripheral blood mononuclear cells, CD4+ T cells, CD8+ T cells, and CD14+ monocytes of 32 genetically pre-selected healthy female individuals were generated, sequenced and reads were aligned to the standard reference. For the MHC region, reads were mapped to available MHC reference haplotypes and AltHapAlignR was used to estimate gene expression. Using this method, HLA-DRB and HLA-DQ were found to be differentially expressed in different immune cells of healthy individuals as well as in whole blood samples of RA patients carrying HLA-DRB1 SE-positive versus SE-negative alleles. In contrast, no genes outside the MHC region were differentially expressed between individuals carrying HLA-DRB1 SE-positive and SE-negative alleles. Existing methods for HLA-DR allele-specific protein expression were evaluated but were not mature enough to provide appropriate complementary information at the protein level. Altogether, our findings suggest that immune effects associated with different allelic forms of HLA-DR and HLA-DQ may be associated not only with differences in the structure of these proteins, but also with differences in their expression levels.

Antigen Presentation Profiling Reveals T-cell Recognition of Lymphoma Immunoglobulin Neoantigens

Project description:Cancer somatic mutations can generate neoantigens that distinguish malignant from normal cells. Such neoantigens have been implicated in response to immunotherapies including immune checkpoint blockade, yet their identification and validation remains challenging. Here we discover neoantigens in human mantle cell lymphomas using an integrated strategy for genomic and proteomic tumor antigen discovery that interrogates peptides presented within the tumor major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I and class II molecules. We applied this approach to systematically identify neoantigen peptides in diagnostic tumor specimens from 17 patients and several cell lines. Remarkably, the discovered neoantigenic peptides were invariably derived from the lymphoma immunoglobulin (Ig) heavy or light chain variable regions. Although we could identify MHC presentation of private germline polymorphic alleles, no mutated peptides were recovered from non-Ig somatically mutated genes. The immunoglobulin variable region somatic mutations were almost exclusively presented by MHC-II. We found T-cells specific for an immunoglobulin-derived neoantigen in the blood of a patient using MHC-II tetramers, and these T-cell clones expanded in frequency following tumor vaccination. These results demonstrate that an integrative approach combining MHC isolation, peptide identification and exome sequencing is an effective platform to uncover tumor neoantigens. Application of this strategy to human lymphoma implicates immunoglobulin neoantigens as targets for lymphoma immunotherapy.

RNA-Seq of human aortic endothelial cells with lysophosphatidylinositol against untreated controls

Project description:Vascular Innate immune cells, such as macrophages, elicit long-term T cell-, and B cell- immune responses, by expressing danger-associated molecular pattern (DAMP) receptors, T cell co-stimulation receptors and presenting antigens to the adaptive system through major histocompatibility complex (MHC)-II. Here, we investigated whether human aortic endothelial cells (HAECs) could also be “transdifferentiated” into innate immune cells after treatment of hyperlipidemia-upregulated DAMP molecules, lysophosphatidylinositol (LPI). HAECs were treated with vehicle control or lysophosphatidylinositol (16:0) (10µM) for 18 hours.

Single cell RNA sequencing on pancreatic islet infiltrating T cells from NOD mice.

Project description:CD4+ T cells recognize peptide antigens presented on class II Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC-II) molecules to carry out their function. The remarkable diversity of T cell receptor (TCR) sequences and lack of antigen discovery approaches for MHC-II make profiling the specificities of CD4+ T cells challenging. We have expanded our platform of Signaling and Antigen-presenting Bifunctional Receptors to encode MHC-II molecules presenting covalently linked peptides (SABR-IIs) for CD4+ cell antigen discovery. SABR-IIs can present epitopes to CD4+ T cells and induce signaling upon their recognition, allowing a readable output. Here, we demonstrate that SABR-IIs libraries presenting endogenous and non-contiguous epitopes can be used for antigen discovery. Using SABR-II libraries in conjunction with single cell RNA sequencing, we de-convoluted multiple highly expanded TCRs from pancreatic islets of Non-Obese Diabetic (NOD) mice and identified novel Hybrid Insulin Peptide targets. We compounded antigen discovery by incorporating computational TCR similarity prediction metrics followed by experimental validation. Finally, we showed SABR-IIs presenting epitopes in class II Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA-II) alleles can be used for antigen discovery for human CD4+ T cells. Taken together, we have developed a rapid, flexible, scalable, and versatile approach for de novo identification of CD4+ T cell ligands from single cell RNA sequencing data using experimental and computational approaches.

DNA damage-induced genes in KMS12PE cells

Project description:The major histocompatibility complex class II (MHC II) is important for the adaptive immune response because it presents processed antigens to CD4-positive T-cells. Conventional chemotherapeutic agents (e.g., melphalan, adriamycin, hydroxyurea) induce tumor cell death by causing DNA double strand breaks (DSBs), which are crucial for anti-tumor effects. However, the cellular response induced at low doses of these agents that do not cause immediate cell death is unclear. We have employed microarray expression profiling to identify genes which are induced by low dose of chemotherapeutic agents. Multiple myeloma cell line KMS12PE was treated with vehicle, 2 μM melphalan, or 50 nM adriamycin. These agents transcriptionally induced the major histocompatibility complex class II (MHC II) genes. They also increased the expressions of MHC class II transactivator (CIITA), the master regulator of MHC II genes and interferon regulatory factor 1 (IRF1), a transcription factor for CIITA.

Gene expression analysis of thymocyte subsets

Project description:Mouse thymocytes can be classified into four major subsets based on expression of CD4 and CD8 co-receptors. CD4-CD8- (double negative, DN) cells become CD4+CD8+ (double positive, DP) cells following productive T cell receptor (TCR) beta chain rearrangement. A small proportion of DP cells are selected through interaction of clonal TCRalpha/beta and MHC self peptide complex expressed on thymic stromal cells. DP cell expressing MHC class I-restricted TCR become CD4-CD8+ cells, which will finally differentiate into cytotoxic T cells, while MHC class II restricted selection generates CD4+CD8- helper lineage T cells. We used microarrays to identify genes important for thymocyte differentiation and lineage determination by profiling gene expression in different thymocyte subsets. Mouse thymocytes were divided into four subsets based on CD4, CD8a, and TCRb expression and purified by flw cytometry. FACS purified DN (CD4-CD8a-TCRb-), DP (CD4+CD8a+), CD4SP (CD4+CD8a-TCRbhi) and CD8SP (CD4-CD8a+TCRbhi) populations were lysed in Trizol, and provided to the Genomics Core Facility of the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC) for quality control, quantification, reverse transcription, labeling and hybridization to MOE430A 2.0 microarray chips (Affymetrix). Arrays were scanned per the manufacturer’s specifications for the Affymetrix MOE430v2 chip.
