Project description:Here, we report on experiments in double-transgenic mice, in which RFP is expressed in all Foxp3+ Treg cells, whereas Foxp3-dependent GFP expression is exclusively confined to intrathymically induced Foxp3+ Treg cells. This novel molecular genetic tool enabled us to faithfully track and characterize naturally induced Treg cells of intrathymic (RFP+GFP+) and extrathymic (RFP+GFPM-bM-^HM-^R) origin in otherwise unmanipulated mice. These experiments directly demonstrate that extrathymically induced Treg cells substantially contribute to the overall pool of mature Foxp3+ Treg cells residing in peripheral lymphoid tissues of steady-state mice. Furthermore, we provide evidence that intra- and extrathymically induced Foxp3+ Treg cells represent distinct phenotypic and functional sublineages. CD4+CD25+ RFP+GFP- and CD4+CD25+ RFP+GFP+ T cells from pooled lymph nodes and pooled spleens of 20 mice were FACS sorted for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays in duplicates.

Project description:Expression data from CD34+ hematopoietic cells transduced with control or anti-SLPI shRNA, serum starved and treated with G-CSF. CD34+ hematopoietic cells were isolated from the bone marrow of healthy individuals, transduced with lenitvirus-based RFP-expressed shRNA constructs targeting SLPI mRNA or scrambled control shRNA. After 3 days of the transductions, RFP+ cells were sorted, serum starved for 24 hours and treated with G-CSF 10 ng/ml for 18 hours. Total RNA of sorted cells was isolated and used for Affymetrix Exome arrays.

Project description:Regulatory T cell (Treg) impairment is a common denominator of autoimmune pathologies. Despite the extensive characterization of Treg cell phenotype in autoimmunity, the molecular mechanisms underlying their deterioration remain ill defined. To investigate Treg dysfunction during autoimmunity we performed transcriptomic analysis of CD4+CD25highCD127- Treg cells from peripheral blood of patients with autoimmunity.

Project description:CD34+ progenitor cells were cultured for 0 or 21 days in StemPro medium + supplement + IL-3 at 5 ng/ml Basophils, eosinophils and plasmacytoid dendritic cells were purified to near homogeneity and lysed for miRNA and mRNA. Basophils were purified by negative selection (StemSep Abs, miltenyi columns), eosinophils by StemSep Abs and pDC by positive selection after removing monocytes. The method starting with a 2-step Percoll gradient that put eosinophils in the pellet, basophils in the middle layer and pDC in the upper layer.

Project description:Multiple sclerosis is a chronic neuroinflammatory disorder characterized by demyelination, oligodendrocyte damage/loss and neuroaxonal injury in the context of immune cell infiltration in the central nervous system. No neuroprotective therapy is available to promote the survival of oligodendrocytes and protect their myelin processes in immune-mediated demyelinating diseases. Pro-inflammatory CD4 T helper (Th)17 cells can directly interact with oligodendrocytes in multiple sclerosis and its animal model, causing injury to myelinating processes and cell death through direct contact. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying the close contact and subsequent detrimental interaction of Th17 cells with oligodendrocytes remain unclear. In this study we conducted single cell RNA sequencing of human primary oligodendrocytes cultured alone, in contact or separated by an insert with primary Th17 polarized T cells and identified several cell adhesion molecules that may modulate T cell contact mediated damage of oligodendrocytes. Furthermore, we used flow cytometry and immunofluorescence studies on central nervous system tissue from multiple sclerosis subjects, its animal model and controls to characterize the expression of cell adhesion molecules by mature oligodendrocytes. We found that a significant proportion of human and murine mature oligodendrocytes express melanoma cell adhesion molecule and activated leukocyte cell adhesion molecule in multiple sclerosis, EAE and controls although their regulation differ between human and mouse. We observed that exposure to pro-inflammatory cytokines or to human activated T cells are associated with a marked downregulation of the expression of melanoma cell adhesion molecule but not activated leukocyte cell adhesion molecule at the surface of human primary oligodendrocytes. Furthermore, we used in vitro live-imaging, immunofluorescence, and flow cytometry to determine the contribution of these molecules to Th17-polarized cell adhesion and cytotoxicity towards human oligodendrocytes. Silencing and blocking activated leukocyte cell adhesion molecule but not melanoma cell adhesion molecule limited prolonged interactions between oligodendrocytes and Th17-polarized cells, resulting in decreased adhesion of Th17-polarized cells to oligodendrocytes and conferred significant protection of oligodendrocytic processes.

Project description:A new Treg-specific, FoxP3-GFP-hCre BAC transgenic was crossed to a conditional Dicer knock-out mouse strain to analyze the role of microRNAs (miRNA) in the development and function of regulatory T cells (Tregs). Although thymic Tregs developed normally in this setting, the cells showed evidence of altered differentiation and dysfunction in the periphery. Dicer-deficient Treg lineage cells failed to remain stable as a subset of cells down-regulated the Treg-specific transcription factor, FoxP3, while the majority expressed altered levels of multiple genes and proteins (including Neuropilin 1, GITR and CTLA-4) associated with the Treg fingerprint. In fact, a significant percentage of the Treg lineage cells took on a Th memory phenotype including increased levels of CD127, IL-4, and interferon-g. Importantly, Dicer-deficient Tregs lost suppression activity in vivo; the mice rapidly developed fatal systemic autoimmune disease resembling the FoxP3 knockout phenotype. These results support a central role for miRNAs in maintaining the stability of differentiated Treg function in vivo and homeostasis of the adaptive immune system.

Project description:The mechanisms by which regulatory T (Treg) cells differentially control allergic and autoimmune responses remain unclear. We show that Treg cells in food allergy (FA) have decreased expression of transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF-b1) due to IL-4 and STAT6-dependent inhibition of Tgfb1 transcription. These changes were modelled by Treg cell-specific Tgfb1 monoallelic inactivation, which induced allergic dysregulation by impairing microbiota-dependent ROR-gt+ Treg cell differentiation. This dysregulation was rescued by treatment with Clostridiales species, which upregulated Tgfb1 expression in Treg cells. Biallelic deficiency precipitated fatal autoimmunity, with intense autoantibody production and dysregulated T follicular helper and B cell responses. These results identify a privileged role for Treg cell-derived TGF-b1 in regulating allergy and autoimmunity at distinct checkpoints in a Tgfb1 gene dose and microbiota-dependent manner.

Triplicate GeneChips were used for each T cell population.
