RNA-seq of CD4+ T cell subsets in LCMV infection

ABSTRACT: T follicular helper (TFH) cells are a distinct type of CD4 T cells that are essential for most antibody and B lymphocyte responses. TFH regulation and dysregulation is involved in a range of diseases. Bcl6 is the lineage defining transcription factor of TFH cells and its activity is essential for TFH cell differentiation and function. However, how Bcl6 controls TFH biology has largely remained unclear, at least in part due to intrinsic challenges of connecting repressors to gene upregulation in complex cell types with multiple possible differentiation fates. Multiple competing models were tested here by a series of experimental approaches to determine that Bcl6 exhibits negative autoregulation and controls pleiotropic attributes of TFH differentiation and function (migration, costimulation, inhibitory receptors, and cytokines) via multiple repressor-of-repressor gene circuits.

Type I Interferon induces binding of STAT1 to Bcl6: Divergent Roles of STAT-family transcription factors in the T follicular helper cell genetic program

Project description:CD4+ T follicular helper cells (TFH) are critical for the formation and function of B cell responses to infection or immunization, but also play an important role in autoimmunity. The factors that contribute to the differentiation of this helper cell subset are incompletely understood, although several cytokines including IL-6, IL-21 and IL-12 can promote TFH cell formation. Yet, none of these factors, nor their downstream cognate STATs, have emerged as non-redundant, essential drivers of TFH cells. This suggests a model in which multiple factors can contribute to the phenotypic characteristics of TFH cells. As type I interferons (IFNs) are often generated in immune responses, we set out to investigate if these factors are relevant to TFH cell differentiation. Type I IFNs promote Th1 responses, thus one possibility was these factors antagonized TFH-expressed genes. However, we show that type I IFNs (IFN-α/β) induced Bcl6 expression, the master regulator transcription factor for TFH cells, and CXCR5 and PD-1 (encoded by Pdcd1), key surface molecules expressed by TFH cells. In contrast, type I IFNs failed to induce IL-21, the signature cytokine for TFH cells. The induction of Bcl6 was regulated directly by STAT1, which bound to the Bcl6, Cxcr5 and Pdcd1 loci. These data suggest that type I IFNs (IFN-α/β) and STAT1 can contribute to some features of TFH cells but are inadequate in inducing complete programming of this subset. The role of STAT1 in type I interferon treated CD4+ T cells was investigated by Chip-seq of STAT1.

Genome binding/occupancy profiling of Tox2 in Tfh-like cells

Project description:T Follicular helper (Tfh) cell is an effector CD4+ T cell subset specialized in helping B cells in germinal centers (GC) reactions. Although Bcl6 was identified as a Tfh-specific transcription factor essential for their development, the molecular mechanisms underlying Bcl6 regulation and Tfh cell commitment remain unclear. Here, we report that Tox2 transcription factor is highly expressed in Tfh cells, regulated by Bcl6 and STAT3. Forced expression of Tox2 drives Bcl6 expression and Tfh development. Mechanistically, Tox2 directly binds to Tfh-associated genes, including Bcl6, and functions to promote their chromatin accessibility and modulate the activities of other Tfh-regulating factors. Conversely, genetic deletion of Tox2 results in defective Tfh differentiation, and inhibiting both Tox and Tox2 in T cells abolishes Tfh differentiation and GC response. Thus, our results demonstrate that Tox2 is a key transcription factor that regulates Bcl6 expression and Tfh development and suggest a Tox2-Bcl6 axis in feed-forward regulation of Tfh program.

ChIP-seq for E4BP4 in CD4+ T cell

Project description:Here, using ChIP-seq, we demonstrate that the transcriptional repressor Adenovirus E4 promoter-binding protein (E4BP4) binds directly to the Bcl6 promoter, which a key transcription factor controlling Tfh cell differentiation. By obtaining sequence from chromatin immunoprecipitated DNA of E4BP4 overexpressing CD4+T cells, we generated genome-wide binding gene spectrums of E4BP4. These results reveal that E4BP4 interacts with BCL6 and E4BP4 directly modulated the expression of Bcl6 to reveal the mechanism downstream of E4BP4 that regulates Tfh cell differentiation.

Foxp1 is a rate-limiting and essential negative regulator of Tfh cell differentiation

Project description:CD4+ T follicular helper (Tfh) cells are essential for germinal center (GC) and high-affinity antibody responses. Yet the regulation that determines the initial development of Tfh cells is still largely unknown. Here we find that transcription factor Foxp1, previously shown to be essential in maintaining T cell quiescence, is a rate-limiting and essential negative regulator of Tfh cell differentiation. NaM-CM-/ve CD4+ T cells constitutively express Foxp1A, and stimulation through the T cell receptor (TCR) transiently induces the expression of a shorter Foxp1D isoform. In T cell-dependent (TD) humoral responses, CD4+ T cells deficient in all Foxp1 isoforms preferentially differentiate into Tfh cells, resulting in substantially increased GC and antibody responses. This negative regulation of Foxp1 on Tfh cell differentiation shows profound dominance: even in the absence of B cells, Foxp1-deficient CD4+ T cells differentiate into Tfh cells with high frequencies and sustained Bcl6 expression. Further, in the absence of Foxp1, Tfh cells are generated in higher frequencies than seen with Bcl6 overexpression and Tfh cell differentiation becomes significantly resistant to Blimp1-mediated repression. Finally, our experiments reveal specific roles of Foxp1A and Foxp1D in inhibiting Tfh cell differentiation: TCR-induced Foxp1D functions as a M-bM-^@M-^XgatekeeperM-bM-^@M-^Y to block the initial Tfh cell development, and together Foxp1A and Foxp1D proteins inversely determine Tfh cell generation in a dosage-dependent manner. Our study suggests that two Foxp1 isoforms provide a M-bM-^@M-^\double checkM-bM-^@M-^] mechanism as fundamental regulators in Tfh cell differentiation and humoral responses.
