Project description:Inflammasomes are multi-protein complexes that control the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines such as IL-1beta. Inflammasomes play an important role in the control of immunity to tumors and infections, and also in autoimmune diseases, but the mechanisms controlling the activation of human inflammasomes are largely unknown. We found that human activated CD4+CD45RO+ memory T-cells specifically suppress P2X7R-mediated NLRP3 inflammasome activation, without affecting P2X7R-independent NLRP3 or NLRP1 inflammasome activation. The concomitant increase in pro-IL-1β production induced by activated memory T-cells concealed this effect. Priming with IFNβ decreased pro-IL-1β production in addition to NLRP3 inflammasome inhibition and thus unmasked the inhibitory effect on NLRP3 inflammasome activation. IFNβ did not suppress NLRP3 inflammasome activation by acting directly on monocytes. The inhibition of pro-IL-1β production and suppression of NLRP3 inflammasome activation by IFNβ-primed human CD4+CD45RO+ memory T-cells is partly mediated by soluble FasL and is associated with down-regulated P2X7R mRNA expression and reduced response to ATP in monocytes. CD4+CD45RO+ memory T-cells from multiple sclerosis (MS) patients showed a reduced ability to suppress NLRP3 inflammasome activation, however their suppressive ability was recovered following in vivo treatment with IFNβ. Thus, our data demonstrate that human P2X7R-mediated NLRP3 inflammasome activation is regulated by activated CD4+CD45RO+ memory T cells, and provide new information on the mechanisms mediating the therapeutic effects of IFNβ in MS. Memory T-cells were cultured in the presence of monocytes with and without Interferon-beta, resorted and expression profile was determined

Project description:The interleukin-23 (IL-23) pathway plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of multiple chronic inflammatory disorders, however, inter-individual variability in IL-23-induced signal transduction in circulating human lymphocytes has not been well-defined. In this study, we observed marked, reproducible inter-individual differences in IL-23 responsiveness (measured by STAT3 phosphorylation) in peripheral blood CD8+CD45RO+ memory T and CD3+CD56+ NKT cells. To define mechanisms that might be contributing to the differential IL-23-induced STAT3 activation between individuals, we examined mRNA expression differences in CD8+CD45RO+ memory T cells between IL-23 responsive and non-responsive individuals. We analyzed unstimulated and IL-23 stimulated FACS sorted CD8+CD45RO+ memory T cells from two individuals demonstrating robust IL-23 responsiveness, and two individuals demonstrating low IL-23 responsiveness, using the Affymetrix Human Exon 1.0 ST platform. Array data was processed by Affymetrix Expression Console software. No techinical replicates were performed.

Project description:We performed an RNA-seq analysis on FACS-sorted CD4+ memory T cells (Tmem, CD4+CD25-CD45RA-) stimulated in vitro with anti-CD3/CD28 coated beads (1:5), IL-2 (100 U/mL) in the presence of a TNF-alpha inhibitor (Etanercept, ETN, 5 μg/mL) or recombinant human TNF-alpha (rhTNF-alpha, 50 ng/mL) treatment. The cells were cultured for three days at 37°C and 5% CO2. On day three Tmem were lysed (Buffer RLT supplemented with DTT, QIAGEN) and RNA extraction was performed (RNeasy Plus Micro kit), followed by sample preparation with TruSeq (polyA) mRNA kits (Illumina), RNA sequencing (carried out by an Illumina HiSeq2500), and the alignment of trimmed fastQ files to GRCh38 human reference genome. We also performed a Quality control (QC). This was done using the tool FastQC FastQC/0.11.3-Java-1.7.0_80. QC metrics were calculated for the aligned reads using Picard-tools picard/1.130-Java-1.7.0_80, CollectRnaSeqMetrics, MarkDuplicates, CollectInsertSize-Metrics and SAMtools/1.2-foss-2015b flagstat. Finally, we carried out a Differential expression gene (DEG) analysis using DESeq2, in order to evaluate the impact of ETN and rhTNF-alpha on Transcriptome profiling of stimulated CD4+ Tmem. Principal Component Analysis (PCA) was carried out to visualise the samples given their entire transcriptome and any remaining batch effects.

Project description:This study evaluated changes in gene expression upon IL-7 treatment in human naive and memory Treg. CD4+CD25+CD127low naïve and memory Treg were isolated from fresh PBMC and separately stimulated with ?CD3?/CD28 coupled beads (Invitrogen-Dynal) at a 1:10 bead/T cell ratio, treated with or without 10 ng/ml of rhIL-7 (R&D Systems) for 16 hours. qPCR gene expression profiling of CD4+CD25+CD127low naïve and memory Treg obtained from 2 separate donors. Cell lysates were prepared separately from the 2 donors and pooled prior to RNA extraction.

Project description:Using an experimental model of graft versus host disease (GVHD) to examine T cell-mediated inflammation within the colon, we identified a unique CD4+ T cell population that constitutively expresses the β2 integrin, CD11c, has a biased central memory phenotype and memory T cell transcriptional profile, possesses innate-like properties by gene expression analysis, and has increased expression of the gut-homing molecules, α4β7 and CCR9. Using a number of complementary GVHD mouse models, we show that adoptive transfer of these cells results in TH1-mediated proinflammatory cytokine production, augmented pathological damage in the colon, and increased mortality due to early accumulation of these cells in the GI tract. The pathogenic effects of this CD4+ T cell population was critically dependent upon co-expression of the IL-23 receptor which was required for maximal inflammatory effects. Colonic inflammation was regulated by IL-10 that was produced by non-Foxp3-expressing CD4+ T cells which attenuated lethality in the absence of functional CD4+ Foxp3+ T cells. Thus, coordinate expression of CD11c and the IL-23R defines a novel IL-10 regulated, colitogenic memory CD4+ T cell subset that is poised to initiate inflammation when there is loss of tolerance and breakdown of mucosal barriers as occurs in GVHD as well as other immune-mediated inflammatory bowel disorders.

Project description:Memory CD4 T cells are critical to human immunity, yet it is unclear if viral inflammation during memory formation has long-term consequences. Here, we compared transcriptional and epigenetic landscapes of Spike (S)-specific memory CD4 T cells in 24 individuals whose first exposure to S was via SARS-CoV-2 infection or mRNA vaccination. Nearly two years after memory formation, S-specific CD4 T cells established by infection remained enriched for transcripts related to cytotoxicity and for interferon-stimulated genes, likely due to a chromatin accessibility landscape altered by inflammation. Moreover, S-specific CD4 T cells primed by infection had reduced proliferative capacity in vitro relative to vaccine-primed cells. Furthermore, the transcriptional state of S-specific memory CD4 T cells was minimally altered by booster immunization and/or breakthrough infection. Thus, these data demonstrate the durable imprint of inflammation on CD4 T cell memory which affected function and may have consequences for long-term immunity.

Project description:There is much evidence that T cells may be activated via mechanisms which act independently of direct TCR ligation. Despite this, the question of whether such forms of âbystanderâ T cell activation occur during immune responses is hotly debated. To address some outstanding questions, we set up an in vitro system within which to analyse bystander T cell activation in human T cells, in the absence of the possibility for TCR cross-reactivity. In addition, we have investigated the genetic, phenotypic, and functional characteristics of bystander activated T cells. Here, we show that bystander T cell activation is, indeed, observed during a specific immune response, and that it occurs preferentially amongst CD4+ memory T cells. Furthermore, bystander activated T cells display a distinct gene expression profile. The mechanism for bystander T cell activation involves soluble factors, and the outcome is an elevated level of apoptosis. This may provide an explanation for the attrition of T cell memory pools of heterologous specificity during immune responses to pathogens such as viruses. Experiment Overall Design: Three conditions tested with 4 biological repilicates in each: Experiment Overall Design: Resting cells - cells expressing a TCR which does not specifically recognize SEB (Vβ13.1 T cells) and did not upregulate the activation marker CD25 in response to transwell SEB-stimulated co-culture over a 5 day period. Experiment Overall Design: Bystander activated cells - cells expressing a TCR which does not specifically recognize SEB (Vβ13.1 T cells), but which did upregulate the activation marker CD25 in response to transwell SEB-stimulated co-culture over a 5 day period. Experiment Overall Design: Directly activated cells - cells expressing a TCR which is known to specifically recognize SEB (Vβ17 T cells), and which did upregulate the activation marker CD25 in response to direct SEB stimulation over a 5 day period.
