IRF4 Haploinsufficiency Impairs Affinity Maturation

ABSTRACT: Single cell RNA seq (scRNA-seq) has emerged as a powerful tool to determine the composition of heterogeneous cell states in a tissue. We found that Irf4+/- antigen specific B cells were functionally impaired in affinity maturation. The goal of this study was to determine whether Irf4+/- antigen specific B cells exhibited distinct cellular composition compared to wild type cells. Sequence data from 8360 cells revealed a similar distribution and numbers of cell states between cells of Irf4+/- or Irf4+/+ genotypes.

B Cell-Intrinsic IRF4 Haploinsufficiency Impairs Affinity Maturation.

Project description:The germinal center (GC) reaction is a coordinated and dynamic ensemble of cells and processes that mediate the maturation and selection of high-affinity GC B cells (GCBs) from lower-affinity precursors and ultimately results in plasma cell and memory cell fates that exit the GC. It is of great interest to identify intrinsic and extrinsic factors that control the selection process. The transcription factor IRF4, induced upon BCR and CD40 signaling, is essential for the acquisition of plasma cell and GCB cell fates. We hypothesized that beyond this early requirement, IRF4 continuously operates at later phases of the B cell response. We show that IRF4 is expressed in GCBs at levels greater than seen in resting cells and plays a role in efficient selection of high-affinity GCBs. Halving Irf4 gene copy number in an Ag-specific murine B cell model, we found that Ag presentation, isotype switching, GC formation and zonation, somatic hypermutation rates, and proliferation were comparable with cells with a full Irf4 allelic complement. In contrast, Irf4 haploinsufficient GCBs exhibited impaired generation of high-affinity cells. Mechanistically, we demonstrate suboptimal Blimp-1 regulation among high-affinity Irf4 haploinsufficient GCBs. Furthermore, in cotransfer settings, we observed a marked disadvantage of Irf4 haploinsufficient cells for GC entry, evidential of ineffective recruitment of T cell help. We propose that, analogous to its role in early GC entry, IRF4 continues to function in the late phase of the Ab response to promote productive T follicular helper cell interactions and to activate optimal Blimp-1 expression during GC selection and affinity maturation.

The transcription factor IRF4 is essential for T cell receptor affinity mediated metabolic programming and clonal expansion of T cells [ChIP-seq]

Project description:We demonstrate that transcription factor IRF4 is induced in a T cell receptor (TCR) affinity-dependent manner and functions as a dose-dependent regulator of the metabolic function of activated T cells. IRF4 regulates the expression of key molecules required for aerobic glycolysis of effector T cells, and is essential for clonal expansion and maintenance of effector function of antigen-specific CD8+ T cells. Examination of binding sites of transcription factor IRF4 in mouse CD8+ T cells.

In vivo microarray expression data from WT, Irf4-/- and checkpoint blockade treated Irf4-/- TEa CD4+ T cells

Project description:Previously we found that Irf4-deficient T cells were dysfunctional and unable to reject heart allografts and checkpoint blockade treatment could reinvigorate dysfunctional Irf4-deficient T cells and enable them reject heart allografts. But shortly after the reinvigoration those T cells went back to dysfunctional state. TCR-transgenic TEa CD4+ T cells (B6 background) recognize a Balb/c I-Eα allopeptide presented by B6 antigen presenting cells, and were used to assess the effects of immune checkpoint blockades on Irf4-deficient alloreactive T cells. WT, Irf4-/- and checkpoint blockade treated Irf4-/- TEa CD4+ T cells were isolated from Balb/c heart transplanted B6 mice, followed by microarray analysis. To define un-restored gene expressions in Irf4-deficient alloreactive T cells upon immune checkpoint blockades, we compared genes expression level among three groups. We revealed that checkpoint blockade restored the expression levels of the majority of wild-type T cell-expressed genes in Irf4-/- T cells, indicating the reinvigoration of Irf4-/- T cells. The remaining un-restored genes following checkpoint blockade, though minimal in number, may be responsible for the reinvigorated Irf4-/- T cells to become re-dysfunction.

Transcriptional profiling of IRF4 -/- vs IRF4 +/- T-cells under Th17 polarizing conditions

Project description:Transcriptional profiling of T-cells isolated from spleen of IRF4 -/- mice and cultured under Th17 polarizing conditions for 42 hrs compared to cells similarly isolated and cultured from spleen of IRF4 +/- mice. The aim of the study was to identify global misexpression of genes in IRF4 -/- cells and hence identify key pathways regulated by IRF4 during Th17 differentiation. Two-condition experiment, IRF4 -/- vs IRF4 +/- Th17 cells at 42hrs. Biological replicates: 3 for each condition

Control of nutrient uptake by IRF4 orchestrates innate immune memory - ChIP-seq

Project description:Natural Killer (NK) cells are innate cytotoxic lymphocytes with adaptive immune features, including antigen-specificity, clonal expansion, and memory. As such, NK cells share many transcriptional and epigenetic programs with their adaptive CD8+ T cell siblings. Various signals ranging from antigen, co-stimulation, and proinflammatory cytokines are required for optimal NK cell responses in mice and humans during virus infection; however, the integration of these signals remains unclear. In this study, we identified the transcription factor IRF4 as a signal integrator to coordinate the NK cell response during viral infection. Loss of IRF4 was detrimental to the expansion and differentiation of virus-specific NK cells. This defect was partially attributed to the inability of IRF4-deficient NK cells to uptake nutrients required for survival and memory generation. Altogether, these data suggest IRF4 is a signal integrator that acts as a secondary metabolic checkpoint to orchestrate the adaptive response of NK cells during viral infection.
