Project description:The origin and function of human double negative (DN) TCR-alpha/beta T cells is unknown. They are thought to contribute to the pathogenesis of systemic lupus erythematosus because they expand and accumulate in inflamed organs. Here we provide evidence that human TCR-alpha/beta CD4- CD8- DN T cells derive exclusively from activated CD8+ T cells. Freshly isolated TCR-alpha/beta DN T cells display a distinct gene expression and cytokine production profile. DN cells isolated from peripheral blood as well as DN cells derived in vitro from CD8+ T cells, produce a defined array of pro-inflammatory mediators that includes IL-1, IL-17, IFN-gama, CXCL3, and CXCL2. These results indicate that, upon activation, CD8+ T cells have the capacity to acquire a distinct phenotype that grants them inflammatory capacity. TCR-alpha-beta+ CD25- T cells from healthy human individuals were sorted into CD4+, CD8+, and CD4-CD8- T cells. Cell lysis and RNA extraction was performed immediately. RNA from each cell subset was pooled.

Project description:Recent studies have demonstrated that both mouse and human alpha beta TCR(+)CD3(+)NK1.1(-)CD4(-)CD8- double-negative regulatory T (DN Treg) cells can suppress Ag-specific immune responses mediated by CD8+ and CD4+ T cells. To identify molecules involved in DN Treg cell function, we generated a panel of murine DN Treg clones, which specifically kill activated syngeneic CD8+ T cells. Through serial cultivation of DN Treg clones, mutant clones arose that lost regulatory capacity in vitro and in vivo. Although all allogeneic cardiac grafts in animals preinfused with tolerant CD4/CD8 negative 12 DN Treg clones survived over 100 days, allograft survival is unchanged following infusion of mutant clones (19.5 +/- 11.1 days) compared with untreated controls (22.8 +/- 10.5 days; p < 0.001). Global gene expression differences between functional DN Treg cells and nonfunctional mutants were compared. We found 1099 differentially expressed genes (q < 0.025%), suggesting increased cell proliferation and survival, immune regulation, and chemotaxis, together with decreased expression of genes for Ag presentation, apoptosis, and protein phosphatases involved in signal transduction. Expression of 33 overexpressed and 24 underexpressed genes were confirmed using quantitative real-time PCR. Protein expression of several genes, including Fc epsilon RI gamma subunit and CXCR5, which are >50-fold higher, was also confirmed using FACS. These findings shed light on the mechanisms by which DN Treg cells down-regulate immune responses and prolong cardiac allograft survival. Type 2 experiment where functional DN T-reg cells (CN4 or TN12) were cy-3 labeled and co-hybridized with non-functional mutant cell lines (CN4.8 or CN12.8). Used 100 ug total-RNA each channel and no amplifaction.

Project description:Mouse thymocytes can be classified into four major subsets based on expression of CD4 and CD8 co-receptors. CD4-CD8- (double negative, DN) cells become CD4+CD8+ (double positive, DP) cells following productive T cell receptor (TCR) beta chain rearrangement. A small proportion of DP cells are selected through interaction of clonal TCRalpha/beta and MHC self peptide complex expressed on thymic stromal cells. DP cell expressing MHC class I-restricted TCR become CD4-CD8+ cells, which will finally differentiate into cytotoxic T cells, while MHC class II restricted selection generates CD4+CD8- helper lineage T cells. We used microarrays to identify genes important for thymocyte differentiation and lineage determination by profiling gene expression in different thymocyte subsets. Mouse thymocytes were divided into four subsets based on CD4, CD8a, and TCRb expression and purified by flw cytometry. FACS purified DN (CD4-CD8a-TCRb-), DP (CD4+CD8a+), CD4SP (CD4+CD8a-TCRbhi) and CD8SP (CD4-CD8a+TCRbhi) populations were lysed in Trizol, and provided to the Genomics Core Facility of the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC) for quality control, quantification, reverse transcription, labeling and hybridization to MOE430A 2.0 microarray chips (Affymetrix). Arrays were scanned per the manufacturer’s specifications for the Affymetrix MOE430v2 chip.

Project description:The Ag receptors on alpha/beta and gamma/delta T cells differ not only in the nature of the ligands that they recognize but also in their signaling potential. We hypothesized that the differences in alpha/beta - and gamma/delta TCR signal transduction were due to differences in the intracellular signaling pathways coupled to these two TCRs. To investigate this, we employed transcriptional profiling to identify genes encoding signaling molecules that are differentially expressed in mature alpha/beta and gamma/delta T cell populations. Unexpectedly, we found that B lymphoid kinase (Blk), a Src family kinase expressed primarily in B cells, is expressed in gamma/delta T cells but not in alpha/beta T cells. Analysis of Blk-deficient mice revealed that Blk is required for the development of IL-17-producing gamma/delta T cells. Furthermore, Blk is expressed in lymphoid precursors and, in this capacity, plays a role in regulating thymus cellularity during ontogeny. Naive alpha/beta and gamma/delta T cells isolated from mouse lymph nodes and purified by negative selection were compared using MOE430 2.0 GeneChip.

Project description:T cell receptor (TCR) αβ+ CD4- CD8- double negative T cells represent a rare T cell subset implicated in the pathogenesis of several autoimmune diseases. In this study, we investigated the DNA methylation signature of double negative T cells to gain insight into the epigenetic architecture and transcriptional capacity of peripheral blood primary human double negative T cells compared to autologous CD4+ and CD8+ T cells. We identified 2,984 CG sites across the genome with unique loss of DNA methylation in double negative T cells, and showed significant reduction in mRNA expression of DNA methyltransferases DNMT1, DNMT3A, and DNMT3B. DNA methylation was increased in CD8A/CD8B and CD4 consistent with epigenetic repression of both the CD8 and CD4 genetic loci in double negative T cells. Curiously, we show consistent increase in non-CG methylation in double negative T cells, a finding suggestive of pluripotency and previously only known to occur in embryonic stem cells and developing brain tissue. Network analyses of genes hypomethylated in double negative compared to CD4+ and CD8+ T cells indicate a strong relationship between double negative T cells and functions related to cell-cell interaction, cell adhesion, and cell activation pathways. Our data also suggest a robust pro-inflammatory epigenetic signature in double negative T cells, consistent with a transcriptional permissiveness to produce key inflammatory cytokines including IFNγ, IL-17F, IL-12B, IL-5, IL-18, TNFSF11 (RANKL), and TNFSF13B (BLYS or BAFF). These findings highlight an epigenetic basis for a role of double negative T cells in autoimmunity and extend the potential pathogenic transcriptional capacity of this unique T cell subset. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were isolated from fresh blood samples of 7 unrelated healthy women (age range 25-60) (Supplementary Table 1) by Ficoll-gradient centrifugation (GE Healthcare Bio-Sciences AB, Uppsala, Sweden). Subsequently, T cells were negatively-selected using the Human Pan T Cell Isolation II kit (Miltenyi Biotec, Cambridge, MA). T cells were then analyzed and sorted into TCRαβ+ CD4+ T cells, TCRαβ+ CD8+ T cells, and TCRαβ+ DN T cell subsets by flow cytometry. DNA was isolated from CD4+, CD8+, and DN T cell subsets using the DNeasy Blood and Tissue Kit (Qiagen, Valencia, CA), then bisulfite-converted using the EZ DNA Methylation kit (Zymo Research, Irvine, CA) for DNA methylation studies.
