Single-cell RNA-sequencing of CD44+ CD4+ T cells from day 21 post-LCMV Cl13 infection following transient CD4+ T cell depletion (scRNA-Seq)

ABSTRACT: CD4+ T cells play a critical role in sustaining the effector function of CD8+ T cells during chronic viral infection. When CD4+ T cell “help” is absent, following transient CD4+ T cell depletion, CD8+ T cells enter a dysfunctional state, losing their capacity for viral control. Here, we applied scRNA-seq to determine the CD4+ T cell subsets that repopulate following transient CD4+ T cell depletion, during LCMV Clone 13 infection.

Project description:Though T cell expansion and effector differentiation are triggered and, perhaps, maintained by antigen, the proliferative behaviors of CD4+ and CD8+ T cells responding to timed antigen presentation have rarely been compared side by side. Proliferation and effector differentiation of TCR transgenic and polyclonal T cells were analyzed following transient and continuous TCR signals. We found CD4+ T cell proliferation to be dependent on prolonged antigen presence, whereas CD8+ T cells were able to divide and differentiate into effector cells in the absence of it. We excluded CD4+ T cell proliferation to be abrogated by coinhibitory signals or the lack of inflammatory stimuli and found that autonomous proliferation of CD8* T cells was independent of any MHC class I signals. Gene expression analyses illustrated differences in global gene transcription between the two subsets following stimulation periods of different lengths. These T cell data reflect the MHC class difference in that class II but not class I molecules were stabilized on activated DCs in vivo, suggesting a coevolution of MHC molecules and their respective T cell subsets. Samples 1-12: Analysis on day 2. Purified CD4+ AND-TCR transgenic cells andÂ CD8+ OT1-TCR transgenic cells were separately stimulated with anti-CD3 and anti-CD28 antibodies. 48 hours later, the cells were sorted again to a purity of >99 %. Extracted total RNA was amplified twice and hybridized on Affymetrix Mouse 430A2 microarrays. First, we analysed the changes of the CD4+ and CD8+ T cells after stimulation. Second, we compared the differences of the changes between the two cell types after stimulation. For each of the four groups (CD4+ and CD8+, stimulated and unstimulated), we analysed three independent biological replicates. Samples 13-28: Analysis on day 5. AND and OT1 TCR-transgenic T cells were prepared as described before, but transferred into mice that do not or do present their respective antigens. 72 hours later, the cells were FACS-sorted twice to >99 % purity, directly into Trizol. For each of the six groups (CD4+ and CD8+, unstimulated, transient (2 days) and continuous (5 days) stimulation), three independent biological replicates were analyzed, except for CD4+ unstimulated and CD4+ transient, with two replicates each.
