Functional separation of IL7Rα/KLRG1-defined CD8+ T cell populations in humans

ABSTRACT: During acute viral infections in mice, IL-7Rα and KLRG1 together are used to distinguish the short-lived effector cells (SLEC; IL-7RαloKLRGhi) from the precursors of persisting memory cells (MPEC; IL-7RαhiKLRG1lo). We here show that these markers can be used to define distinct subsets in the circulation and lymph nodes during the acute phase and in ‘steady state’ in humans. In contrast to the T cells in the circulation, T cells derived from lymph nodes hardly contain any KLRG1-expressing cells. The four populations defined by IL-7Rα and KLRG1 differ markedly in transcription factor, granzyme and chemokine receptor expression. When studying renal transplant recipients experiencing a primary hCMV and EBV infection, we also found that after viral control, during latency, Ki-67-negative SLEC can be found in the peripheral blood in considerable numbers. Thus, combined analyses of IL-7Rα and KLRG1 expression on human herpes virus-specific CD8+ T cells can be used to separate functionally distinct subsets in humans. As a non-cycling IL-7RαloKLRG1hi population is abundant in healthy humans, we conclude that this combination of markers not only defines short-lived effector cells during the acute response but also stable effector cells that are formed and remain present during latent herpes infections.

Expression data from LCMV-infected P14 and Akt transgenic P14 CD8 T cells

Project description:The PI3K/Akt signaling pathway impacts various aspects of CD8 T cell homeostasis, such as effect versus memory cell differentiation, during viral infection. We used microarrays to determine which downstream molecules were affected and what other signaling pathways were interconnected with the Akt pathway by constitutive activation of Akt in LCMV-infected CD8 T cells. Splenocytes from naive P14/WT or P14/Akt mice were stained with anti-CD8 and anti-Ly5.1, and CD8 T cells were sorted using a FACSAria II instrument. Purified Ly5.1+ CD8 T cells from P14/WT or P14/Akt mice were transferred into B6 mice, which were subsequently infected with LCMV Armstrong. At day 8 post infection, splenocytes were stained with anti-CD8, anti-Ly5.1, anti-KLRG1, and anti-CD127. Following staining, short-lived effector cells (SLECs) and memory precursor effector cells (MPECs) were sorted using the FACSAria II instrument; the purity of the sorted cells was >95%. A total of 5 samples were analyzed, including WT naive, WT SLEC, WT MPEC, Akt naive and Akt SLEC.

Dexamethasone treatment of 3B4.15 T hybridoma cells

Project description:Investigation of whole genome gene expression level changes in Mus musculus 3B4.15 T hybridoma cells treated with 1microMolar Dexamethasone compared to mock treated cells. Interleukin-7 receptor alpha (IL-7Rα) is essential for T cell survival and differentiation. Glucocorticoids are potent enhancers of IL-7Rα expression with diverse roles in T cell biology. Here we identify the transcriptional repressor, Growth factor independent-1 (Gfi1), as a novel intermediary in glucocorticoid-induced IL-7Rα upregulation. We found Gfi1 to be a major inhibitory target of dexamethasone by microarray expression profiling of 3B4.15 T-hybridoma cells. Concordantly, retroviral transduction of Gfi1 significantly blunted IL-7Rα upregulation by dexamethasone. To further assess the role of Gfi1 in vivo, we generated bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) transgenic mice, in which a modified Il7r locus expresses GFP to report Il7r gene transcription. By introducing this BAC reporter transgene into either Gfi1-deficient or Gfi1-transgenic mice, we document in vivo that IL-7Rα transcription is upregulated in the absence of Gfi1 and downregulated when Gfi1 is overexpressed. Strikingly, the in vivo regulatory role of Gfi1 was specific for CD8+, and not CD4+ T cells or immature thymocytes. These results identify Gfi1 as a specific transcriptional repressor of the Il7r gene in CD8 T lymphocytes in vivo.

Each chip measures the expression level of 44170 target genes

Gene expression by Treg subsets

Project description:Thymic-derived natural T regulatory cells (nTregs) are characterized by functional and phenotypic heterogeneity. Recently, a small fraction of peripheral Tregs have been shown to express Klrg1, but it remains unclear the extent Klrg1 defines a unique Treg subset. Here we show that Klrg1+ Tregs represent a terminally differentiated Treg subset derived from Klrg1- Tregs. This subset is a recent antigen-responsive and a highly activated short-lived Treg population that expresses enhanced levels of Treg suppressive molecules and that preferentially resides within mucosal tissues. The development of Klrg1+ Tregs also requires extensive IL-2R signaling. This activity represents a distinct function for IL-2, independent from its contribution to Treg homeostasis and competitive fitness. These and other properties are analogous to terminally differentiated short-lived CD8+ T effector cells. Our findings suggest that an important pathway driving antigen-activated conventional T lymphocytes also operates for Tregs. Gene expression analysis was performed of this and other Treg subsets based on expression of CD62L, CD69, and Klrg1 to define the molecular properties of Klrg1+ Tregs and its relationship to other Treg subsets found in the peripheral immune tissues. Mice were euthanized, spleen cell preparations were made, and each Treg subset was isolated by FACS cell sorting. RNA was immediately prepared for processing.

Mapping of the autophagosomal degradome identifies IL-7Rα as key 1 cargo in proliferating CD4+ T-cells

Project description:CD4+ T cells orchestrate both humoral and cytotoxic immune responses. While it is known that CD4+ T cell proliferation relies on autophagy, direct identification of the autophagosomal cargo involved is still missing. Here, we created a transgenic mouse model, which, for the first time, enables us to directly map the proteinaceous content of autophagosomes in any primary cell by LC3 proximity labelling. IL-7Rα, a cytokine receptor mostly found in naïve and memory T cells, was reproducibly detected in autophagosomes of activated CD4+ T cells. Consistently, CD4+ T cells lacking autophagy showed increased IL-7Rα surface expression, while no defect in internalisation was observed. Mechanistically, excessive surface IL-7Rα sequestrates the common gamma chain, impairing the IL-2R assembly and downstream signalling crucial for T cell proliferation. This study provides proof-of-principle that key autophagy substrates can be reliably identified with this model to help mechanistically unravel autophagy’s contribution to healthy physiology and disease.

IL-27 produced during acute malaria infection regulates Plasmodium-specific memory CD4+ T cells

Project description:Malaria infection elicits both protective and pathogenic immune responses, and IL-27 is a critical cytokine that regulate effector responses during infection. Here, we identified a critical window of CD4+ T cell responses that is targeted by IL-27. Neutralization of IL-27 during acute infection with Plasmodium chabaudi expanded specific CD4+ T cells, which were maintained at high levels thereafter. In the chronic phase, Plasmodium-specific CD4+ T cells in IL-27-neutralized mice consisted mainly of CD127+KLRG1- and CD127-KLRG1+ subpopulations that displayed distinct cytokine production, proliferative capacity and are maintained in a manner independent of active infection. Single cell RNA-seq analysis revealed that these CD4+ T cell subsets formed independent clusters that express unique Th1-type genes. These IL-27-neutralized mice exhibited enhanced cellular and humoral immune responses and protection. These findings demonstrate that IL-27, which is produced during the acute phase of malaria infection, inhibits the development of unique Th1 memory precursor CD4+ T cells, suggesting potential implications for the development of vaccines and other strategic interventions.

KLRG1+ Memory CD8 T cells Combine Properties of Short-lived Effectors and Long-lived Memory

Project description:CD8 effector T cells with a CD127hi KLRG1- phenotype are considered precursors to the long-lived memory pool, while KLRG1+ CD127low cells are viewed as short-lived effectors. Nevertheless, we and others have shown that a KLRG1+ CD127low population persists into the memory phase and that these T cells (termed long-lived effector cells or LLEC) display robust protective function during acute re-challenge with bacteria or viruses. Whether these T cells represent a true memory population or are instead a remnant effector cell population that failed to undergo initial contraction has remained unclear. Here, we show that LLEC from mice express a distinct phenotypic and transcriptional signature that shares characteristics of both early effectors and long-lived memory cells. Furthermore, we find that LLEC are exclusively derived from day 12 KLRG1+ effector cells. Our work challenges the concept that the KLRG1+ CD127low population is dominated by short-lived cells and shows that KLRG1 downregulation is not a prerequisite to become a long-lived protective memory T cell.

Transcriptional comparison of ptpn2-deficient and competent effector and memory precursor cells in acute HSV infection

Project description:We compared the transcriptional profile of FACS-purified total effector, KLRG1+ effector and KLRG1- effector Lck-Cre;Ptpn2fl/fl and Ptpn2fl/fl OT-I cells from spleens of acutely infected mice. As expected, we found a large number of differentially expressed genes (DEG; |log2(fold-change)| >1; false discovery rate <0.05) between KLRG1– and KLRG1+ subsets of both Lck-Cre;Ptpn2fl/fl (712 DEG) and Ptpn2fl/fl (528 DEG) OT-I cells. Furthermore, we found 190 DEGs between total populations of Ptpn2-deficient and control OT-I cells. Considerably fewer genes were differentially expressed between Lck-Cre;Ptpn2fl/fl and Ptpn2fl/fl OT-I cells amongst the KLRG1– (93 DEG) and KLRG1+ (59 DEG) subsets. Hierarchical clustering analysis further revealed clustering of KLRG1– cells of both genotypes with total Ptpn2fl/fl OT-I cells, whereas KLRG1+ cells of both genotypes clustered with total Lck-Cre;Ptpn2fl/fl OT-I cells. Gene set enrichment analysis further showed that differential gene profiles between Lck-Cre;Ptpn2fl/fl and Ptpn2fl/fl OT-I cells for all subfractions (total, KLRG1+, KLRG1–) were enriched significantly for previously identified effector versus memory CD8+ T cell signature genes. Taken together, these findings indicate that after in vivo priming following HSV infection, Ptpn2 deficiency resulted in the preferential generation of OT-I cells with a transcriptional profile biased towards more terminally differentiated KLRG1+ effector cells with restricted memory potential.
