Project description:The aim of this study was to quantify the impact of NOD genetic vatiation on thymic negative selection transcriptional programs. Pre-selected BDC2.5 TCR Tg DP thymocytes from non-selecting B6 and NOD.H2b backgrounds were purified (Dynal CD8 FlowComp), mixed in a 1:1 ratio and stimulated with BDC mimotope-loaded TCRa-/-/NOD splenocytes for indicated periods of time and double sorted by FACS as Thy1.2+Dump-CD4+CD8+; Dump includes CD19, Gr1, CD11b, CD11c, CD49b. Following cell sorting into trizol, RNA was purified, labeled and hybridized to Affymetrix arrays. experiment type: unstimulated versus stimulated BDC/B6.Rag-/- and BDC/NOD.H2b.Rag-/- DP thymocytes

Project description:We identified DCIR2+DCs but not DEC205+DCs as able to induce peripheral T cell tolerance in pre-diabetic autoimmune NOD mice. To determine what distinct genetic programs are elicited in the auto-reactive CD4 T cells early after stimulation by these two DC subsets, we utilized adoptive transfer of BDC2.5 CD4 T cells into NOD mice, which were then given chimeric antibody to deliver the beta-cell specific antigen to either DCIR2+DCs or DEC205+DCs, leading to BDC2.5 CD4 T cell specific stimulation in vivo. The analysis shows that the negative transcriptional factor Zbtb32 (ROG) is up-regulated more in BDC2.5 CD4 T cells after stimulated with a antigen via DCIR2+DCs presentation, compared with DEC205+DCs, suggesting the involvement of Zbtb32 in DCIR2+DCs-mediated auto-reactive T cell tolerance in disease ongoing NOD mice. The BDC2.5 CD4 T cells after 14 hour of injection with a 100 ng of anti-DCIR2-BDC, anti-DEC205-BDC antibody, or PBS as a control to NOD mice, were sorted by BD FACSAria and their expression profile was analyzed using Affymetrix chips. NOD mice with transferred BDC2.5 T cell were injected with 100 ng of anti-DCIR2-BDC (NOD_DCIR2-BDC), anti-DEC205-BDC antibody (NOD_DEC-BDC), or PBS (NOD_PBS) as a control. After 14 hours, BDC2.5 CD4 T cells were sorted by BD FACSAria and their expression profile was analyzed using Affymetrix microarray chips. Each sample has a biological duplicate. Raw data were preprocessed with the RMA algorithm in Partek, and averaged expression values were used for analysis.

Project description:Over-activation of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor by TCDD in mice leads among other phenotypes to a severe thymic atrophy accompanied by immunosuppression. TCDD causes a block in thymocyte maturation and a preferential emigration of immature CD4-CD8- DN thymocytes (recent thymic emigrants) into the periphery. As part of this study gene expression profiles from DN thymocytes and thymic emigrants were generated from TCDD and solvent control mice Keywords: Affymetrix, TCDD, CD4-CD8- thymocytes, Thymus involution, thymic emigration, Ahr

Project description:β -selection imposes a considerable demand for new protein synthesis of the newly rearranged Tcrβ gene and the multiple factors that execute the transcriptional and metabolic programs demanded by DN thymocyte proliferation. However, how proteome homeostasis or “proteostasis” is regulated during thymocyte development is largely unknown. Here, we show that the endoplasmic reticulum (ER)- associated degradation (ERAD), but not the unfolded protein response (UPR), is the master regulator of physiological ER proteostasis in immature DN thymocytes. The ERAD machinery was critically required for successful β-selection of DN3 thymocytes and consequently, ERAD deficiency impeded αβ T cell development. The Sel1L-Hrd1 complex is the most conserved branch of mammalian ERAD machinery. Deletion of Sel1l impaired DN3 to DN4 thymocyte transition and severely impaired αβ T cell development. Mechanistically, Sel1l deficiency induced unresolved ER stress that triggered thymocyte apoptosis through the PERK pathway. This study revealed the stringent protein quality control through the SEL1L-ERAD pathway is required for successful b-selection and the development of the ab T cells that mediate adaptive immunity.

Project description:Given its central role in immune aging, identifying regulators of thymic involution is important. While conventional programmed cell death plays a fundamental role in thymocyte development, how cell death pathways contribute to thymic involution remains unclear. In this study, we found that CD4+CD8+ double positive (DP) thymocytes acquired characteristics of senescence in aged mice undergoing thymic involution, while expression of the m6A methyltransferase METTL3 (enriched in DP cells from young mice) decreased with aging. By conditionally deleting METTL3 in T cells, we revealed a critical role for METTL3 in DP cell survival, and in restraining features of aging in DP thymocytes by preventing ferroptosis signaling, through glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4). Mechanistically, GPX4 was maintained by METTL3 at the translational level, independent of its methyltransferase activity. Furthermore, we found that pharmacological inhibition of ferroptosis promoted DP cell survival, and attenuate d features of aging in DP thymocytes. These findings uncover a role for METTL3-regulated ferroptosis in thymic involution, and identify strategies to restore thymic function.

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.
