Gene expression profile of OT-I CD8+ T cell subtypes

ABSTRACT: Modified Vaccinia Ankara (MVA) was recently approved as a Smallpox vaccine. Transmission of Variola is by respiratory droplets, and MVA delivered by skin scarification (ss) protected mice far more effectively against lethal respiratory challenge with VACV than any other route of delivery, and at much lower doses. Comparisons of ss with intradermal, subcutaneous or intramuscular routes showed that MVAOVA ss-generated T cells were both more abundant and transcriptionally distinct. MVAOVA ss produced greater numbers of lung Ova-specific CD8+ TRM and was superior in protecting mice against lethal VACVOVA respiratory challenge. Nearly as many lung TRM were generated with MVAOVA ss compared to direct pulmonary immunization with MVAOVA, and both routes vaccination protected mice against lethal pulmonary challenge with VACVOVA. Strikingly, MVAOVA ss-generated effector T cells exhibited overlapping gene transcriptional profiles to those generated via direct pulmonary immunization. Overall, our data suggest that heterologous MVA vectors delivered via ss are uniquely well-suited as vaccine vectors for respiratory pathogens like COVID-19. In addition, MVA delivered via ss could represent a more effective dose-sparing smallpox vaccine.

Project description:Segmental instillation of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) by bronchoscopy can be used as a model to safely induce transient airway inflammation in the human lung. The LPS challenge model enables investigation of cellular mechanisms involved in pulmonary inflammatory processes as well as pharmacodynamic analysis of investigational drugs for the treatment of respiratory diseases. Aim of this work was to describe the transcriptomic profile of the human segmental LPS challenge model with contextualization to major respiratory diseases. Pre-challenge bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BAL) and biopsies were sampled from twenty-eight smoking, healthy subjects, followed by segmental LPS challenge and saline control challenge. Twenty-four hours post instillation, BAL and biopsies were collected from the challenged lung segments. Total RNA of cells from BAL and biopsy samples were sequenced for subsequent data analysis. Differential gene expression analysis resulted in 6316 upregulated differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and 241 downregulated DEG in BAL, but only one downregulated DEG in biopsy samples after LPS challenge compared to saline challenge. Upregulated DEG in BAL were related to molecular functions such as “Inflammatory response” or “antimicrobial humoral immune response mediated by antimicrobial peptide”, enriched biological processes such as “chemokine receptor activity”, and upregulated pro-inflammatory pathways such as “Wnt signaling pathway”, “Ras signaling pathway” or “JAK-STAT signaling pathway”. Furthermore, the segmental LPS challenge model resembled aspects of the five most prevalent respiratory diseases chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma, pneumonia, tuberculosis and lung cancer and featured similarities with acute exacerbations in COPD (AECOPD) and community-acquired pneumonia (CAP). Overall, our study provides extensive information about the transcriptomic profile from BAL cells and mucosal biopsies following LPS challenge in healthy smokers. It expands the knowledge about the LPS challenge model providing potential overlap with respiratory diseases in general and infection-triggered respiratory insults such as AECOPD in particular.
