Diversity of peripheral blood human NK cells identified by single cell RNA sequencing

ABSTRACT: Human Natural Killer (NK) cells in peripheral blood perform many functions and classification of specific subsets has been a long-standing goal. Here, we report single cell RNA-sequencing of NK cells, comparing gene expression in unstimulated and IL-2 activated cells, from healthy CMV-negative donors. Three NK cell subsets resembled well-described populations, CD56brightCD16-, CD56dimCD16+CD57- and CD56dimCD16+CD57+. CD56dimCD16+CD57- cells sub-divided to include a population with higher chemokine mRNA and increased frequency of KIR expression. Three novel human blood NK cell populations were identified as: a population of type I interferon responding NK cells which were CD56neg, a population exhibiting a cytokine-induced memory-like phenotype, including increased granzyme B mRNA in response to IL-2, and finally, a small population, with low ribosomal expression, down-regulation of oxidative phosphorylation and high levels of immediate early response genes indicative of cellular activation. Analysis of CMV-positive donors established that CMV altered the proportion of NK cells in each subset, especially an increase in adaptive NK cells, as well as gene regulation within each subset. Together, these data establish an unexpected diversity in blood NK cells and provide a new framework for analysing NK cell responses in health and disease.

Diversity of peripheral blood human NK cells identified by single cell RNA sequencing

Project description:Human Natural Killer (NK) cells in peripheral blood perform many functions but classification of specific subsets has been a long-standing problem. Here, we report single-cell RNA sequencing of NK cells from healthy CMV-negative donors, comparing gene expression in unstimulated and IL-2 activated cells. Unsupervised clustering identified seven NK cell subsets. Three resembled well-described populations, CD56brightCD16-, CD56dimCD16+CD57- and CD56dimCD16+CD57+. CD56dimCD16+CD57- cells sub-divided to include a population with higher chemokine mRNA and increased frequency of KIR expression. Three novel human blood NK cell populations were identified as: a population of type I interferon responding NK cells which were CD56neg; a population exhibiting an in-vivo cytokine-induced memory-like phenotype, including increased granzyme B mRNA in response to IL-2, and finally, a small population, with low ribosomal expression, down-regulation of oxidative phosphorylation and high levels of immediate early response genes indicative of cellular activation. Human cytomegalovirus positive donors also included a higher frequency of adaptive NK cells. Together, these data establish an unexpected diversity in blood NK cells and provide a new framework for analysing NK cell responses in health and disease.

Proteomic characterization of CD56posCD57 NK cell subsets

Project description:NK cells are lymphocytes that provide a first defense against viral infections and cancer. They act (i) cytotoxic by killing virus-infected and tumorigenic cells and (ii) immune regulatory by releasing cytokines and chemokines. These innate immune cells are commonly further classified as CD56bright and CD56dim NK cells. Former studies confirmed immune regulatory CD56bright NK cells as progenitors of cytotoxic CD56dim NK cells. CD57 was previously described as T cell marker for senescence and terminal differentiation. Recent studies detected CD57+ and CD57- NK cells among the CD56dim NK cell population and suggested a fully mature developmental status for CD57+ NK cells. The recent NK cell maturation model includes CD34+ hematopoietic stem cells (HSC), which develop into CD56bright NK cells, later into CD56dimCD57- and finally into terminally maturated CD56dimCD57+ (1) (2) (3). The molecular mechanisms of human NK cell differentiation and maturation remain unknown to this date. We performed for the first time a proteomic analysis of these distinct developmental stages of human primary NK cells, isolated from overall 10 healthy human blood donors. CD56bright NK cells versusCD56dim and CD56dimCD57- versus CD56dimCD57+ NK cells were analyzed by using quantitative peptide sequencing, which revealed individual protein signatures (3400 proteins) of these different NK cell developmental stages. Notably, our data support the current NK cell differentiation model by highlighting both strong distinctions between CD56dim/bright NK cells and close relationships between CD57+/- NK cells on the proteomic level. Among the most prominent and conserved regulated proteins, we detected myosin IIa, Calvasculin and Calcyclin with very similar expression patterns. We investigated their sub-cellular localization and observed specific recruitment- and accumulation-events at the NK cell immunological synapse (NKIS) after NK activation.

Gene expression profiling of NKG2C+ NK cells generated from inflammatory CD34+DNAM-1brCXCR4+ and Lin-CD34- CD16+CD56- blood precursors

Project description:There is limited knowledge on the origin and development of the ample spectrum of human NK cells, particularly of specialized NK subsets. Here, we characterized the NK cell progeny of CD34+DNAM-1bright CXCR4+ precursors that reside in healthy bone marrow and circulate in the peripheral blood (PB) of patients with chronic infections/inflammation. including HIV, HCV or HCMV reactivation after HSC transplantation. Unlike conventional CD34+ precursors they rapidly differentiated in vitro into cytotoxic, IFNγ-secreting CD94/NKG2C+KIR+CD57+ maturing NK cell progenies with HCMV-inhibiting activity. Progeny characterization led also to identification of an additional new PB Lin-CD56-CD16+ precursor giving rise to the same CD94/NKG2C+KIR+CD57+ maturing NK cell progenies. Microarray analysis of NK cell progenies revealed a signature compatible with maturing adaptive NK cells. In vivo circulation of multiple common lymphocyte precursors with rapid development to NKG2C+ NK cell progeny is steadily occurring and may thus be a crucial resource for the prompt control of HCMV. We used microarray to compare the transcriptional profiles of human NKG2C+ NK cells derived from i) CD34+DNAM1brightCXCR4+ precursors, ii) Lin-CD34-CD16+CD56- precursors, iii) peripheral blood.

Gene expression analysis for CD56- T, NK, CD56+ T cells, and iNKT cells

Project description:A small subset of T cells also expresses kiler-cell immunoglobulin-like receptors (KIRs). We find that KIR+ T cells primarily reside in the CD56+ T population. However, little is known on how these cells are different from the conventional CD56- T, NK, and iNKT cells. We used microarray profiling to compare and determine the distinctive differences of CD56+ T cell and its KIR subsets when compared to the conventional CD56- T, NK and iNKT cells. Lymphocyte subsets were sorted from human peripheral blood mononuclear cells with FACSAriaII (BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA) using anti-CD3, anti-CD56, anti-CD14, anti-KIR2DL1, anti-KIR2DL2/3, anti-KIR3DL1 and anti-TCRValpha24 antibodies. The purity of CD3+CD56- T cells, CD3-CD56+ NK cells, CD3+CD56+ T cells, KIR-CD3+CD56+ T cells, and KIR+CD3+CD56+ T cells were more than 98% in all experiments. The purities of iNKT cells for TCRValpha24 and CD1d-tetramer were >95% and >90%, respectively. RNA pre-amplification, labeling and hybridization on Human Genome U133Plus 2.0 GeneChip array were performed in the St. Jude Hartwell Center for Bioinformatics & Biotechnology microarray core facility according to the manufacturer’s instructions (Affymetrix, Santa Clara, CA).

CMV infection drives adaptive epigenetic diversification of NK cells

Project description:The mechanisms underlying human NK cell phenotypic and functional heterogeneity are unknown. Here, we describe the emergence of diverse subsets of human NK cells selectively lacking expression of signaling proteins following cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection. The absence of B and myeloid cell-related signaling protein expression in these NK cell subsets correlated with promoter DNA hypermethylation. Intriguingly, geneome-wide analyses revealed patterns of DNA methylation that were strikingly similar between CMV-associated adaptive NK cells and cytotoxic effector CD8+ T cells, but differed from those of canonical NK cells. A total of 23 samples were analyzed (4 sorted NK cell subsets and 2 sorted T cell subsets each from 4 individual donors). In one donor only 5 subsets were analyzed. Bisulfite-converted genomic DNA was hybridized to the Illumina Human Methylation450 BeadChip

Epigenetic modification and antibody-dependent expansion of memory-like NK cells in human cytomegalovirus-infected individuals

Project description:As a starting point for exploring potential differences in gene expression between conventional NK and FcRÎ³-NK cells, and to screen for genes that might contribute to the enhanced CD16 responsiveness of g-NK cells, we performed gene expression profiling studies on sorted samples of NK cells. NKG2C, NCR, and KIR surface receptors were used to separate FcRÎ³- NK and conventional NK cells. Indicated subsets of NK cells were sorted from 4 individual donors using a two-way sorter. RNA extracted from the sorted enriched samples were treated with Dnase and analyzed by DNA microarray (Agilent).
