RNA-Seq of IL-2-KO follicular CD8 T cells and IL-2-KO follicular CD4 T cells

ABSTRACT: Follicular CXCR5+ PD-1+ CD8 T cells (CD8 Tfc) arise in multiple models of systemic autoimmunity yet their functional contribution to disease remains in debate. Here we define the follicular localization and functional interactions of CD8 Tfc with B cells during autoimmune disease. The absence of functional T regulatory cells in autoimmunity allows for CD8 Tfc development that then expands with lymphoproliferation. CD8 Tfc are identifiable within the lymph nodes and spleen during systemic autoimmunity, but not during tissue-restricted autoimmune disease. Autoimmune CD8 Tfc cells are polyfunctional, producing helper cytokines IL-21, IL-4, and IFNγ while maintaining cytolytic proteins CD107a, granzyme B, and TNF. During autoimmune disease, IL-2-KO CD8 T cells infiltrate the B cell follicle and germinal center, including the dark zone, to induce AID in vitro in naïve B cells via IL-4 secretion. CD8 Tfc represent a unique CD8 T cell population with a diverse effector cytokine repertoire that can contribute to pathogenic autoimmune B cell response.

The role of IFN-I and IL-27 in the expansion of virus-specific CD8+ T cell subtypes during persistent infection

Project description:Chronic infection and cancer are associated with suppressed T cell responses in the presence of activating antigen. Recent work identified memory-like CD8+ T cells termed follicular cytotoxic T cells (TFC) which sustain T cell responses during persistent infection and are essential for the T-cell proliferative burst following PD1 blockade. Approaches to expand these cells are sought. We show that blockade of interferon type 1 (IFN-I) receptor leads to TFC expansion in an IL-27-and STAT1-dependent manner. IFNAR1 blockade promoted accelerated cell division and retention of TCF1 in virus-specific CD8+ T cells. We found that CD8+ T cell-intrinsic IL-27 signaling safeguards the ability of TCF1-high cells to sustain proliferation and prevents premature cell cycle exit and programmed cell death. Transcriptome analysis revealed an IL-27-regulated gene module controlling survival of activated CD8+ T cells which is enhanced in IFNAR-attenuated conditions. We further demonstrated a cell-intrinsic requirement for the IL-27 target IRF1 in TFC expansion through promoting sustained division. These findings reveal that IL-27 opposes IFN-I to uncouple cell division from effector differentiation, and suggest IL-27 signaling could be exploited to augment self-renewing T cell populations in patients with chronic infections.

CXCR5+ follicular cytotoxic T cells control viral infection in B cell follicles

Project description:In response to infection, antigen-specific CD8+ T cells are primed in the T cell zone of secondary lymphoid organs and differentiate into cytotoxic effector T (TC) cells. Concurrently, CD4+ T cells differentiate into follicular helper T (TFH) cells that localize to B cell follicles and promote protective antibody responses. During unresolved infections, however, some viruses including human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or Epsteinâ??Barr virus (EBV) escape immune control and persist in TFH cells and B cells, respectively. Exclusion of Tc cells from B cell follicles is thought to be a major mechanism of immune evasion. New strategies are therefore needed to eradicate infected cells in follicles for a permanent cure. Using mouse infection models and human samples, we here identify a specialized group of TC cells expressing the chemokine receptor CXCR5 that can selectively enter B cell follicles and eradicate infected TFH and B cells. We demonstrate that differentiation of these cells, which we term follicular cytotoxic T (TFC) cells, requires the transcription factors Bcl6, E2A and Tcf1, whereas the transcriptional regulators Blimp1, Id3 and Id2 inhibit their development. We demonstrate that Blimp1 and E2A directly regulate Cxcr5 expression, and together with Bcl6 and Tcf1 form a transcriptional circuit that guides the TFC differentiation. The identification of a follicular subset of TC cells has far reaching implications for developing better strategies for the control of infections that target B cells and TFH cells and for the eradication of B cell derived malignancies. There is no associated input. The E2A Bio-ChIP-seq was performed with total thymocytes from Tcf3Bio/Bio Rosa26BirA/BirA mice

Genetically-driven target tissue over-expression of CD40: A novel mechanism in autoimmune disease

Project description:The CD40 gene, an important immune regulatory gene, is also expressed and functional on non-myeloid derived cells, many of which are targets for tissue specific autoimmune diseases, including d thyroid follicular cells in Graves’ disease (GD). Whether target tissue CD40 expression plays a role in autoimmune disease etiology has yet to be determined. Here we show for the first time, that target-tissue over-expression of CD40 plays a key role in the etiology of autoimmunity. Using a murine model of GD, we demonstrated that thyroidal CD40 over-expression augmented the production of thyroid specific antibodies, resulting in more severe experimental autoimmune Graves’ disease (EAGD), whereas deletion of thyroidal CD40 suppressed disease. Using transcriptome and immune-pathway analyses we showed that in both EAGD mouse thyroids and human primary thyrocytes, CD40 mediates this effect by activating downstream cytokines and chemokines, most notably IL-6. To translate these findings into therapy, we blocked IL-6 during EAGD induction in the setting of thyroidal CD40 over-expression, and showed decreased levels of TSHR stimulating antibodies and frequency of disease. We conclude that target tissue over-expression of CD40 plays a key role in the etiology of organ specific autoimmune disease. CD40 in Thyroid Autoimmunity: 1) Incubation of human thyroid cells with G28.5, a CD40 stimulating antibody, and purification of RNA, conversion to cDNA, measurement of mRNA expression using RNAseq. 2) Removal of thyroid tissues from CD40 over-expressing transgenic mice and wild type mice, purification of RNA, conversion to cDNA measurement of mRNA expression using RNAseq.

ScRNA-seq of immune cells in tumors or during EAE from Pglyrp1 KO and wildtype mice.

Project description:PGLYRP1 is highly co-expressed with known co-inhibitory molecules and might be a promising novel target for immunotherapy. Indeed, genetic deletion of PGLYRP1 in mice led to decreased tumor growth and an increased activation/effector phenotype in CD8+ T cells, suggesting an inhibitory function of PGLYRP1 in CD8+ T cells. Surprisingly, genetic deletion of PGLYRP1 strongly protected against experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), a model of autoimmune disease in the central nervous system (CNS). Pglyrp1-deficient myeloid cells had a defect in antigen-presentation and T cell activation, indicating that PGLYRP1 might act as a proinflammatory molecule in myeloid cells during autoimmunity. Our results highlight PGLYRP1 as a promising novel target for immunotherapy, that, when targeted, elicits a potent anti-tumor immune response while protecting against tissue inflammation and autoimmunity.

Follicular T Cells are Clonally and Transcriptionally Distinct in B Cell-Driven Autoimmune Disease

Project description:To better understand the role of follicular T cells in autoantibody-mediated disease, we performed single cell RNA and T cell receptor (TCR) sequencing of follicular T cells in a mouse model of autoantibody-mediated disease. This repository provides paired transcriptomes and unbiased TCRab repertoires from sorted CD4+CXCR5+PD1+ follicular T cells at single cell resolution. Our analysis revealed that a minority of clonotypes are preferentially shared amongst autoimmune follicular T cells, and clonotypic expansion is associated with differential gene signatures in autoimmune disease. These data provide insight into the phenotypic differences of follicular T cells in B cell-driven autoimmune disease versus foreign immunization.

Transcriptional profiling of pax2a-Low and pax2a-High thyroid follicular cells in zebrafish

Project description:Thyroid follicular cells (TFCs) are responsible for generation, storage and release of thyroid hormone. Single-cell analysis of zebrafish thyroid gland demonstrated transcriptional heterogeneity within the TFC population (Gillotay et al., bioRxiv, 2020. doi: 10.1101/2020.01.13.891630. GEO dataset for single-cell RNA-Seq.: GSE133466). Particularly, TFC displayed transcriptional heterogeneity in the expression of pax2a, a transcription factor involved in differentiation and maturation of TFCs. To validate the genetic heterogeneity, we generated a pax2a knock-in line, in which mKO2 expression is driven by endogenous pax2a locus. Using Tg(tg:nls-EGFP); pax2a:mKO2-Knock-in, we sorted for TFCs (GFP+) and separated the pax2a-Low (mKO2-Low) and pax2a-High (mKO2-High) populations for NGS.

Transcription profiling by array of human Graves disease short and long course samples

Project description:In common with other autoimmune thyroid disorders (AITD), Gravesï¾? disease (GD) is a chronic autoimmune process. One salient feature of AITD is the inappropriate expression of HLA and other immune response molecules by thyroid follicular cells (TFC) this leading to postulate that stimuli generated in situ in the thyroid gland may contribute to trigger or perpetuate AITD. To identify the factors that determine chronicity, genes expression profiles of 2 normal and 6 autoimmune thyroid glands grouped according the course of disease (short course (SC) < 30 months, and long course (LC) > 30) were compared using Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Arrays followed by software aided pathway analysis and immunohistological studies. The results yielded over 200 differentially expressed (DE) genes pertaining to the immune system (Gene Ontology), of them nearly half of the DE genes were IFN-regulated. In all GD cases there was a predominance of genes of the humoral response and of antigen processing and presentation. While among chronicity genes, identified by a profile based algorithm, antigen presentation, viral response and chemokine genes ranked first.
