A double negative thymocyte specific enhancer augments Notch1 signaling to direct early T cell progenitor expansion, lineage restriction and b-selection.

ABSTRACT: T-cell differentiation requires Notch1 signaling. Here we show that an enhancer upstream of Notch1 active in double-negative (DN) thymocytes is responsible for raising Notch1 signaling intra-thymically. This enhancer is required to expand multipotent progenitors intra-thymically while delaying early differentiation until lineage restrictions are established. Early thymic progenitors lacking the enhancer show accelerated differentiation through the DN stages and increased frequency of B-, ILC-, and NK-cell differentiation. Transcription regulators for T-cell lineage restriction and commitment are expressed normally, but ILC- and NK-cell gene expression persists after T-lineage commitment and TCR V-DJ recombination, Cd3 expression and -selection are impaired. This Notch1 enhancer is inactive in double-positive (DP) thymocytes. Its aberrant reactivation at this stage in Ikaros mutants is required for leukemogenesis. Thus, the DN-specific Notch1 enhancer harnesses the regulatory architecture of DN and DP thymocytes to achieve carefully orchestrated changes in Notch1 signaling required for early lineage restrictions and normal T-cell differentiation.

A double negative thymocyte specific enhancer augments Notch1 signaling to direct early T cell progenitor expansion, lineage restriction and -selection.

Project description:T cell differentiation requires Notch1 signaling. Here we show that an enhancer upstream of Notch1 active in double-negative (DN) mouse thymocytes is responsible for raising Notch1 signaling intra-thymically. This enhancer is required to expand multipotent progenitors intra-thymically while delaying early differentiation until lineage restrictions are established. Early thymic progenitors lacking the enhancer show accelerated differentiation through the DN stages and increased frequency of B-, ILC-, and NK-cell differentiation. Transcription regulators for T cell lineage restriction and commitment are expressed normally, but ILC- and NK-cell gene expression persists after T cell lineage commitment and TCRb V-DJ recombination, Cd3 expression and b-selection are impaired. This Notch1 enhancer is inactive in double-positive (DP) thymocytes. Its aberrant reactivation at this stage in Ikaros mutants is required for leukemogenesis. Thus, the DN-specific Notch1 enhancer harnesses the regulatory architecture of DN and DP thymocytes to achieve carefully orchestrated changes in Notch1 signaling required for early lineage restrictions and normal T cell differentiation.

The Zmiz1-Notch1 interaction induces Myc expression to drive steady state and stress thymopoiesis [ETP and DN3]

Project description:Notch1 signaling ramps up to very high levels in order to drive CD4-CD8- double-negative (DN) thymocytes to the CD4+CD8+ double-positive (DP) stage. During this important phase of T-cell development, which is known as the DN-DP transition, it is unclear whether the Notch1 complex simply strengthens its signal output as an isolated unit or recruits cofactors to amplify its signals. We previously showed that the PIAS-like coactivator Zmiz1 is a direct and context-dependent cofactor of Notch1 in T-cell leukemia. Using conditional knockout mouse models, we show that like inactivation of Notch, inactivation of Zmiz1 impaired the DN-DP transition under steady state and stress conditions. To determine mechanism, we performed RNA-Seq on sorted early T-lineage progenitor (ETP) and DN3 cells that were deprived of Zmiz1 signals either acutely (DeltaTamCre) or chronically (DeltaMxCre). To differentiate Notch1-independent from Notch1-dependent target genes, we also performed RNA-Seq on ETP and DN3 cells that were deprived of Notch1 signals using the anti-NRR Notch1 antibody. Our data suggests that Zmiz1 selectively amplifies a subset of Notch1 target genes in DN3 cells, such as Myc. In contrast, Zmiz1 does not have these functions in ETP cells, thus indicating stage-specific roles of Zmiz1.

RNAseq analysis of thymic CD4-CD8- double-negative (DN) invariant NKT cells from CD4+CD8+ double-positive (DP)-specific Rag2-conditional knock-out mice

Project description:We report the identification of DN NKT cells developed from DN stage thymocytes. We analyzed the gene expression profiles of NKT cells that have developed from DN stage thymocytes isolated from DP-specific E8III-Cre transgenic Rag2-floxed mouse strain, and NKT cells developed from DP thymocytes sorted as YFP-reporter positive NKT cells that were isolated from E8III-Cre transgenic Rosa26-loxP-STOP-loxP mouse.

Gene expression analysis of thymocyte subsets

Project description:Mouse thymocytes can be classified into four major subsets based on expression of CD4 and CD8 co-receptors. CD4-CD8- (double negative, DN) cells become CD4+CD8+ (double positive, DP) cells following productive T cell receptor (TCR) beta chain rearrangement. A small proportion of DP cells are selected through interaction of clonal TCRalpha/beta and MHC self peptide complex expressed on thymic stromal cells. DP cell expressing MHC class I-restricted TCR become CD4-CD8+ cells, which will finally differentiate into cytotoxic T cells, while MHC class II restricted selection generates CD4+CD8- helper lineage T cells. We used microarrays to identify genes important for thymocyte differentiation and lineage determination by profiling gene expression in different thymocyte subsets. Mouse thymocytes were divided into four subsets based on CD4, CD8a, and TCRb expression and purified by flw cytometry. FACS purified DN (CD4-CD8a-TCRb-), DP (CD4+CD8a+), CD4SP (CD4+CD8a-TCRbhi) and CD8SP (CD4-CD8a+TCRbhi) populations were lysed in Trizol, and provided to the Genomics Core Facility of the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC) for quality control, quantification, reverse transcription, labeling and hybridization to MOE430A 2.0 microarray chips (Affymetrix). Arrays were scanned per the manufacturer’s specifications for the Affymetrix MOE430v2 chip.

scRNAseq in Pten enhancer wild-type or deleted thymocytes, enriched for immature thymocyte stages (CD4-CD3-)

Project description:Single cell suspensions of total thymocytes were obtained from Pten enhancer (PE) wild-type or knockout mice. This single-cell suspension was enriched in CD4-CD3- immature thymocyte progenitor cells. CD4-CD3- enriched thymocytes were then mixed 1:1 with single-cell suspensions from total unenriched thymocytes and subsequntly loaded in a 10x Chromium instrument for single-cell RNAseq analyses. Our results revealed Pten levels are signifcantly decreased in CD4-CD8- double negative (DN) thymocytes, CD8+ intermediate single positive (ISP) thymocytes and CD4+CD8+ double positive (DP) thymocytes in PE knockout mice, compared to PE wild-type mice.

Pre-T cell receptor Self-MHC Sampling Restricts Thymocyte Dedifferentiation

Project description:Programming T lymphocytes to distinguish self from non-self is a vital, multi-step process arising in the thymus. Signalling through the pre-T cell receptor (preTCR), a CD3-associated heterodimer comprising an invariant pTα chain and a clone-specific β chain, constitutes a critical early checkpoint in thymocyte development within the αβ T-cell lineage. Recent work demonstrates that preTCRs arrayed on double negative (DN) thymocytes, like αβ TCRs appearing on double positive (DP) thymocytes, ligate peptides bound to MHC molecules (pMHC) on thymic stroma but via a different molecular docking strategy. Here we show the consequences of those distinctive interactions for thymocyte progression, using synchronized fetal thymic progenitor cultures differing in the presence or absence of pMHC on support stroma, determining single cell transcriptomes at key thymocyte developmental transitions. Although MHC negative stroma fosters αβ T lymphocyte differentiation, the absence of pMHC-preTCR interplay leads to deviant thymocyte transcriptional programming associated with de-differentiation. Highly proliferative DN and DP subsets with antecedent characteristics of T cell lymphoblastic and myeloid malignancies emerge. Thus, in addition to fostering β chain repertoire broadening for subsequent αβ TCR utilization, preTCR-pMHC interaction limits cellular plasticity to facilitate normal thymocyte differentiation and proliferation that, if absent, introduces significant developmental vulnerabilities.
