HLADR expression marks recently divided memory CD4 T cells in latent tuberculosis infected subjects upon in vitro stimulation with Mycobacterium tuberculosis antigens


ABSTRACT: Upon antigen encounter, T cells can rapidly divide and form short-lived effector cells which plays an important role fighting an active infection. However, little is known about the molecular markers that distinguish such effector cells from other T cell populations in humans. Due to previous exposure with Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), we expect latent tuberculosis infected (LTBI) subjects to have Mtb-specific memory CD4 T cells that are capable of rapid expansion upon antigen re-encounter. To investigate this further we designed an in vitro MTP-AE (Memory T cell Proliferation upon Antigen Exposure) assay to track and isolate proliferated CD4 T cells in response to antigen stimulation. PBMCs from LTBI subjects were cultured with the MTB300 (Mtb specific peptide pool, PMID: 27409590) for 8 days before sorting for HLADR+ vs HLADR- and divided vs undivided CD4 T cells. We found that HLADR is a marker of recently divided memory CD4 T cells and that differentially expessed genes in HLADR+/recently divided cells were enriched for cytotoxic markers and cytokines compared to HLADR-/undivided cells.
