Integrated multiomics profiling identifies the differentiation program of regulatory T cells in human tumors [scRNA-seq]

ABSTRACT: Regulatory T (Treg) cells suppress effective antitumor immunity in tumor-bearing hosts, thereby becoming promising targets in cancer immunotherapy. Here, we show that Treg cells in the tumor microenvironment (TME) of human lung cancers harbor a completely different open chromatin profile compared to effector T cells and peripheral Treg cells. The integrative sequencing analyses revealed that BATF, IRF4, NF-κb, and NR4A were important transcription factors for Treg cell differentiation in the TME. Particularly, BATF was identified as a key regulator, which leveraged Treg cell differentiation through epigenetically controlling activation-associated gene expression, resulting in the robustness of Treg cells in the TME. BATF deficiency in Treg cells remarkably inhibited tumor growth and high BATF expression was associated with poor prognosis in lung cancer, kidney cancer, and melanoma. Our results propose the specific chromatin remodeling and differentiation program of Treg cells in the TME, which can be applied in the development of Treg cell-targeted therapies.

Gene expression profiles of wild type and Nr4a-triple knockout (Nr4a-TKO) Tnaive and iTreg 3 h

Project description:In this study, we investigated the roles of Nr4a family transcription factors in Th and Treg cell differentiation from Tnaive cells. Nr4a factors were found to promote Treg cell differentiation and repress Th1 and Th2 differentiation. During Treg cell differentiation, all Nr4a factors are transiently induced in Tnaive cells immediately after TCR stimulation, whereby they mediate epigenetic changes directly or by cooperating with other transcription factors. To reveal Nr4a factors' mediated transcrptional events, we analyzed gene expression of wild type and Nr4a-tripple knockout (Nr4a-TKO) Tnaive and iTreg cells by microarray analysis.

Single-cell chromatin accessibility landscape identifies tissue repair program in human regulatory T cells

Project description:Studies over the past decade characterized murine regulatory T cells (Tregs) with the capacity to promote tissue regeneration. In humans, such a population of tissue-repair Treg cells has not been discovered yet. Using single-cell chromatin accessibility profiles of murine and human tissue Treg cells, we defined a species-conserved and microbiota-independent repair Treg signature, with a prevailing footprint of the transcription factor BATF. Combining this signature with gene expression profiling and TCR fate mapping, we identified a population of tissue-like Treg cells in peripheral blood, characterized by the expression of BATF, CCR8 and HLA-DR. Human BATF+CCR8+ Treg cells from normal skin and adipose tissue shared features with tumor-resident Treg and tissue T-follicular helper (Tfh) cells. Inducing a Tfh-like differentiation program in naive Treg cells partially recapitulated human tissue Treg characteristics, including enhanced wound healing potential

Gene expression profiles of wild type, Nr4a-triple knockout (Nr4a-TKO), and Foxp3-KO iTreg 24 h

Project description:In this study, we investigated the roles of Nr4a family transcription factors in Th and Treg cell differentiation from Tnaive cells. Nr4a factors were found to promote Treg cell differentiation and repress Th1 and Th2 differentiation. During Treg cell differentiation, all Nr4a factors are transiently induced in Tnaive cells immediately after TCR stimulation, whereby they mediate epigenetic changes directly or by cooperating with other transcription factors. To reveal Nr4a factors' mediated transcrptional events, we analyzed gene expression of wild type and Nr4a1,a2,a3-tripple knockout (Nr4a-TKO) iTreg cells by microarray analysis.

Regulatory T cells converted from T helper 1 cells in tumors suppress cancer immunity via CD39

Project description:Although regulatory T (Treg) cells are widely believed to impede anti-tumor immunity, their regulation and functional mechanisms are not well understood. Here, through characterization of multiple cancer models, we identified substantial periphery-induced Treg cells in the tumor microenvironment (TME), depletion of which provoked anti-tumor responses and conferred potent therapeutic effects by increasing functional CD8+ T cells. Through fate-mapping and transfer experiments, we found IFN-γ-expressing T helper (Th) 1 cells developed into Treg cells in tumors, in response to TGF-β signaling. Pseudotime trajectory further revealed the terminal differentiation of Th1-like Treg cells from Th1 cells in the TME. Hence, tumor-resident Treg cells highly expressed T-bet, which was essential for their function in the TME. CD39, highly expressed by T-bet+ Treg cells in both mouse and human tumors, is required for Treg suppression of CD8+ T cell response. In summary, our study has elucidated a developmental pathway of intra-tumoral Treg cells and implicated new ways of targeting them in cancer patients.

Comparison of mRNA expression pattern between wild-type regulatory T (Treg) cells and Nr4a-deficient Treg cells

Project description:Regulatory T (Treg) cells, as central mediators of immune suppression, play crucial roles in many aspects of immune system physiology and pathophysiology. Treg cells are characterized by a distinct pattern of gene expression, including upregulation of immune-suppressive genes and silencing of inflammatory cytokine genes. However, the molecular mechanisms that establish and/or maintain such gene regulation in Treg cells remain largely unknown. We recently reported that Nr4a family nuclear orphan receptors are essential for the development of Treg cells. The fact that Treg cells maintain high levels of expression of all Nr4a family components suggests that they may also play critical roles beyond Treg cell development. Thus, we compared mRNA expression pattern between wild-type Treg cells and Nr4a-deficietn Treg cells. As a result, we found that expression of 'Treg-signature genes' were globally down regulated in Nr4a-deficient Treg cells. mRNA from wild-type and Nr4a-deficient Treg cells were analyzed.

Involvement of Nr4a in a Treg-specific transcriptional program and suppression ofM-cM-^@M-^@Th2/Tfh response

Project description:Regulatory T (Treg) cells, as central mediators of immune suppression, play crucial roles in many aspects of immune system physiology and pathophysiology. Treg cells are characterized by a distinct pattern of gene expression, including upregulation of immune-suppressive genes and silencing of inflammatory cytokine genes. However, the molecular mechanisms that establish and/or maintain such gene regulation in Treg cells remain largely unknown. We recently reported that Nr4a family nuclear orphan receptors are essential for the development of Treg cells. The fact that Treg cells maintain high levels of expression of all Nr4a family components suggests that they may also play critical roles beyond Treg cell development. Here, we show that Nr4a factors are essential for maintaining Treg-specific gene expression programs, mediating two defined characteristics of Treg cells: lineage stability and suppressive activity. A compound knockout mouse strain in which all Nr4a genes were specifically deleted in Treg cells developed systemic immunopathology with accelerated Th2/Tfh/IgE reactions. Treg cells in these mice showed global reduction of 'Treg signature' gene expression, including Foxp3, Il2ra and Ikzf4. These findings demonstrate that Nr4a controls a genetic program indispensable for Treg cell maintenance and function. mRNA from wild-type and Nr4a-deficient Treg cells were analyzed.
