Artificial Immune Receptors as novel tools to engineer inflammation sensing regulatory T cells for cell therapy

ABSTRACT: Engineered regulatory T cell (Treg) therapy is a promising strategy to treat patients suffering from inflammatory diseases and autoimmunity. In this study, we introduce a new class of synthetic sensors, named Artificial Immune Receptors (AIRs), for murine and human Treg cells that provide new features to this cell type. AIRs bind inflammatory ligands of the TNF-receptor superfamily and translate this environmental signal into a T cell receptor (TCR)-like program, leading to activation and proliferation of the Treg cells. In a preclinical graft-versus-host-disease model, AIR-Treg cells recognizing lymphotoxin-beta-receptor ligands protect significantly better than Treg cells with only a natural TCR repertoire. Expression and signaling of a human AIR construct in human Treg cells prove that the concept can be translated. Inflammation sensing AIR-Treg cells could be an off-the-shelf Treg cell therapy approach without the knowledge of a specific antigen driving the inflammatory process.

Continuous requirement for the T cell receptor for regulatory T cell function

Project description:Foxp3+ regulatory T cells (Treg cells) maintain immunological tolerance and their deficiency results in fatal multi-organ autoimmunity. Although heightened T cell receptor (TCR) signaling is critical for the differentiation of Treg cells, the role of TCR signaling in Treg cell function remains largely unknown. Here we demonstrate inducible ablation of the TCR results in Treg cell dysfunction which cannot be attributed to impaired Foxp3 expression, decreased expression of Treg cell signature genes or altered ability to sense and consume interleukin 2. Rather, TCR signaling was required for maintaining the expression of a limited subset of genes comprising 25% of the activated Treg cell transcriptional signature. Our results reveal a critical role for the TCR in Treg cell suppressor capacity. Array expression of Foxp3-CreERT2 CalphaFL/WT mice

Id2 and Id3 maintain the regulatory T cell pool to suppress inflammatory disease

Project description:Regulatory T (Treg) cells suppress the development of inflammatory disease, but our knowledge of transcriptional regulators that control this function remains incomplete. Here we show that expression of Id2 and Id3 in Treg cells was required to suppress development of fatal inflammatory disease. We found that T cell antigen receptor (TCR)-driven signaling initially decreased the abundance of Id3, which led to the activation of a follicular regulatory T (TFR) cell–specific transcription signature. However, sustained lower abundance of Id2 and Id3 interfered with proper development of TFR cells. Depletion of Id2 and Id3 expression in Treg cells resulted in compromised maintenance and localization of the Treg cell population. Thus, Id2 and Id3 enforce TFR cell checkpoints and control the maintenance and homing of Treg cells. Treg mRNA profiles in lymph node from 3-week-old Id2fl/flId3fl/fl;Foxp3Cre/Cre (Id2 Id3 double-knockout) and control mice are generated by deep sequencing.

Continuous T cell receptor signals maintain a functional regulatory T cell pool

Project description:During development, thymocytes bearing a moderately self-reactive T cell receptor (TCR) can be selected to become regulatory T (Treg) cells. Several observations suggest that also in the periphery mature Treg cells continuously receive self-reactive TCR signals. However, the importance of this inherent autoreactivity for Treg cell biology remains poorly defined. To address this open question, we genetically ablated the TCR of mature Treg cells in vivo. These experiments revealed that TCR-induced Treg lineage-defining FoxP3 expression and gene hypomethylation were uncoupled from TCR input in mature Treg cells. However, Treg cell homeostasis, cell-type-specific gene expression and suppressive function critically depend on continuous triggering of their TCR. TCRpos (FoxP3+ CD4+ CD25high cells from CM-NM-1F/F FoxP3 I eGFP mice) and TCRneg (FoxP3+ TCRM-bM-^@M-^S CD4+ CD25high cells from Mx-Cre CM-NM-1F/F FoxP3 I eGFP mice) Treg cells were FACS sorted 6 weeks after poly(I:C) injection. Cells from 3-5 mice were pooled for sorting, and 4 replicates for the controls (TCRpos) as well as 5 replicates for the Mx-Cre (TCRneg) mice were generated. mRNA from 3-5 x 105 cells was purified with a RNeasy Micro kit (Qiagen), amplified, labeled and hybridized to Affymetrix M430 V2 microarrays

Quantitative Proteomics Reveals Specialized Wiring of Signaling Pathways that Protects Human Regulatory T Cell Identity - 5 populations ex vivo

Project description:Regulatory CD4+ T cells (Tregs) are functionally distinct from conventional CD4+ T cells (Tconvs). To understand Treg identity, we compared by proteomics and transcriptomics human naïve (n) and effector (e)Tregs, Tconvs and transitional FOXP3+ cells. Only 12% of 422 differentially expressed proteins was identified as such at the mRNA level, demonstrating the importance of direct proteome measurement. Fifty-one proteins discriminated Tregs from Tconvs. This common Treg protein signature indicates altered signaling by TCR-, TNF receptor-, NFB-, PI3 kinase/mTOR-, NFAT- and STAT pathways, and unique cell biological and metabolic features. Another protein signature uniquely identified eTregs and revealed active cell division, apoptosis sensitivity and suppression of NFB- and STAT signaling. eTreg fate appears consolidated by FOXP3 outnumbering its partner transcription factors. These features explain why eTregs cannot produce inflammatory cytokines, whereas transitional FOXP3+ cells can. Collectively, our data reveal that Treg identity is defined and protected by uniquely “wired” signaling pathways.

Differentiation and homeostasis of effector Treg cells are regulated by inositol polyphosphates modulating Ca2+ influx

Project description:Activated Foxp3+ regulatory T (Treg) cells differentiate into effector Treg (eTreg) cells to maintain peripheral immune homeostasis and tolerance. T cell receptor (TCR)-mediated induction and regulation of store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) is essential for eTreg cell differentiation and function. However, SOCE regulation in Treg cells remains unclear. Here we show that inositol polyphosphate multikinase (IPMK), which generates inositol tetrakisphosphate and inositol pentakisphosphate, is a pivotal regulator of Treg cell differentiation downstream of TCR signaling. IPMK is highly expressed in TCR-stimulated Treg cells and promotes a TCR-induced Treg cell program. IPMK-deficient Treg cells display aberrant T cell activation and impaired differentiation into RORγt+ Treg cells, and tissue-resident Treg cells. Mechanistically, IPMK controls the generation of higher-order inositol phosphates, thereby promoting Ca2+ mobilization and Treg cell effector functions. Our findings identify IPMK as a critical regulator of TCR-mediated Ca2+ influx and highlight the importance of IPMK in Treg cell-mediated immune homeostasis.
