IL-2 dependent genes of T regulatory and T effector cells

ABSTRACT: Interleukin-2 receptor (IL-2R) signaling is essential for T regulatory (Treg) cell development and homeostasis. Here we show that expression of IL-2Rbeta chains that lack tyrosine residues important for the association of the adaptor Shc and the transcription factor STAT5 in IL-2Rbeta-deficient mice resulted in production of a normal proportion of natural Treg cells that suppressed severe autoimmunity related with deficiency in IL-2 or IL-2R. These mutant IL-2Rbeta chains supported suboptimal and transient STAT5 activation that upregulate the transcription factor Foxp3 to normal amounts in natural, but not induced, Treg cells. Using cells T cell obtained from normal C57BL/6 mice and mice harboring Treg cells with impaired IL-2R signaling, gene expression profiling revealed many targets in peripheral natural Treg cells that were IL-2-dependent and a substantial overlap between the Treg cell IL-2-dependent gene program and the Treg cell transcriptional signature. Collectively, these findings demonstrate that a critical, and perhaps minor, subset of IL-2-dependent targets in Treg cells is indexed to a low IL-2R signaling threshold and that a substantial proportion of the Treg cell gene program is regulated by IL-2. CD4 T effector cells also showed many IL-2R-dependent gene and these also overlapped in a distintive manner with the IL-2-dependent genes of Treg cells and the Treg gene signature.

An essential role for the IL-2 receptor in Treg cell function

Project description:Regulatory T (Treg) cells, expressing abundant amounts of the IL-2 receptor (IL-2R), are reliant on IL-2 produced by activated T cells. This feature implied a key role for a simple network based on IL-2 consumption by Treg cells in their suppressor function. However, congenital deficiency in IL-2R results in reduced expression of the Treg lineage specification factor Foxp3, confounding experimental efforts to understand the role of IL-2R expression and signaling in Treg suppressor function. Using genetic gain and loss of function approaches, we demonstrate that IL-2 capture is dispensable for control of CD4+ T cells, but is important for limiting CD8+ T cell activation, and that IL-2R dependent STAT5 transcription factor activation plays an essential role in Treg suppressor function separable from T cell receptor signaling.

A distal Foxp3 enhancer enables interleukin-2 dependent thymic Treg cell lineage commitment for robust immune tolerance[TCR-seq]

Project description:STAT5 activation downstream of the Interleukin-2 receptor (IL-2R) facilitates Foxp3 expression, which is required for the differentiation and function of regulatory T (Treg) cells. However, due to the pleiotropic roles of IL-2R signaling, it is unclear how STAT5 acts on the Foxp3 locus to promote Treg cell lineage commitment. Here, we report that IL-2–STAT5 signaling converges on an enhancer (CNS4) during early Foxp3 induction. CNS4 facilitates and sustains the IL-2–dependent CD25+Foxp3– precursor to Treg cell transition in the thymus. Its deficiency results in markedly impaired Treg cell generation in neonates, which is partially mitigated with age. While the thymic Treg cell paucity caused by CNS4 deficiency did not result in autoimmunity on its own, it exacerbated autoimmune manifestations caused by disruption of the Aire gene. Thus, CNS4 enhancer activity ensures robust Treg cell differentiation early in postnatal life and, cooperatively with other tolerance mechanisms, minimizes autoimmunity.

A distal Foxp3 enhancer enables interleukin-2 dependent thymic Treg cell lineage commitment for robust immune tolerance

Project description:STAT5 transcription factor activation downstream of the Interleukin-2 receptor (IL-2R) induces expression of Foxp3, a critical step in the differentiation of regulatory T (Treg) cells. Due to the pleiotropic outputs of IL-2R signaling, it is unclear whether STAT5 acts directly on the Foxp3 locus to promote its expression . Here, we report that IL-2 – STAT5 signaling converged on an enhancer (CNS4) during Foxp3 induction. CNS4 facilitated and sustained the IL-2 dependent CD25+Foxp3– precursor to Treg cell transition in the thymus. Its deficiency resulted in markedly impaired Treg cell generation in neonates, which was partially mitigated with age. While the thymic Treg cell paucity caused by CNS4 deficiency did not result in autoimmunity on its own, it exacerbated autoimmune manifestations caused by disruption of the Aire gene. Thus, CNS4 enhancer activity ensures robust Treg cell differentiation early in postnatal life and cooperatively with other tolerance mechanisms, minimizes autoimmunity.

Dynamic transcriptional activity and chromatin remodeling of regulatory T cells after varied duration of IL-2R signaling [RNA-seq]

Project description:Regulatory T cells (Tregs) are necessary for the maintenance of immune self-tolerance and homeostasis. They have a heightened sensitivity to IL-2, which may create a therapeutic window to promote immune regulation by their selective stimulation. While IL-2 responsive genes are well characterized, yet remain unknown genetic, chromatin and metabolic programs during sustained IL-2R signaling. Longitudinal transcriptional and chromatin accessibility profiling and metabolic studies were performed on peripheral Tregs in response to long-lived mIL-2/CD25 fusion protein. We found an initially increased STAT5 dependent gene modulation enabled by enhanced chromatin accessibility, whereas a STAT5-independent genome-wide chromatin closing to inhibit transcription and cell signaling occurred later. Interestingly, IL-2-dependent genes were induced upon re-stimulation. Mitochondrial metabolism was reprogrammed to fulfill the bioenergetics demand for the burst of proliferation. We propose that a shift from euchromatin to heterochromatin represents a mechanism to restrain, but not abrogate, persistent IL-2R signaling to maintain Treg homeostasis.

Efficient IL-2R signaling differentially affects stability, function, and composition of the regulatory T cell pool

Project description:Signaling via the interleukin 2 receptor (IL-2R) is a requisite for Treg cell identity and function. However, it is not completely understood to what degree IL-2R signaling is required for Treg cell homeostasis, lineage stability and function during both resting and inflammatory conditions. Here, we characterized a spontaneous mouse mutant endowed with a hypomorphic Tyr129His variant of CD25, the a chain of the IL 2R, which resulted in diminished receptor expression and reduced IL-2R signaling. Under non-inflammatory conditions Cd25-Y129H mice harbored substantially lower numbers of peripheral Treg cells with stable Foxp3 expression that prevented the development of spontaneous autoimmune diseases. In contrast, Cd25-Y129H Treg cells failed to efficiently induce immune suppression and lost linage commitment in a T cell transfer colitis model, indicating that unimpaired IL-2R signaling is critical for Treg cell function in inflammatory environments. Moreover, single-cell RNA sequencing of Treg cells revealed that impaired IL-2R signaling profoundly affected the balance of central and effector Treg cell subsets. Thus, partial loss of IL-2R signaling differentially interferes with maintenance, heterogeneity and suppressive function of the regulatory T cell pool.

Two functionally distinct subsets of mast cells generated through IL-2 independent CD25 activities

Project description:CD25 (IL-2R) can be expressed on the surface of immune cells in the absence of other chains of the interleukin-2 receptor (IL-2R), which are indispensable for IL-2 signaling. We identified two novel mast cell subsets, characterized by the differential expression of surface CD25, and by the ability to produce different cytokines and to proliferate, both in vitro and in vivo. We provide evidence that functional differences between the two mast cell populations were dependent on CD25 itself, which directly modulated mast cell proliferation and responses in vivo. These effects were completely independent from IL-2 or the expression of the other chains of the high-affinity IL-2R, indicating an autonomous and previously unappreciated role for CD25 in regulating cell functions. Similar results were also obtained in dendritic cells, which are known to express CD25 but to be unresponsive to IL-2. Our findings indicate a general role for CD25 in contexts where IL-2 signaling is not involved, and may have important implications for all mast cell-related diseases, including mastocytosis, where CD25 is aberrantly expressed on pathogenic mast cells. Total mRNA of FACS-sorted CD25pos and CD25neg populations of primary bone marrow-derived mast cells (BMMCs) was extracted and subjected to by multiparallel sequencing.
