Anti-CD3 therapy permits regulatory T cells to surmount T cell receptor-specified peripheral niche constraints

ABSTRACT: Treatment with anti-CD3 is a promising therapeutic approach for autoimmune diabetes, but its mechanism of action remains unclear. Foxp3+ regulatory T (Treg) cells may be involved, but the evidence has been conflicting, and there is great uncertainty as to possible mechanistic connections. We investigated this issue in mice derived from the NOD model, which were engineered mice in which Treg populations were perturbed, or could be manipulated by acute ablation or transfer. The data highlighted the involvement of Foxp3+ cells in anti-CD3 action. Rather than a generic influence on all Treg cells, the therapeutic effect seemed to involve an striking expansion of previously constrained Treg cell populations; this expansion occurred not through conversion from Foxp3- Tconv cells but from a dramatic proliferative expansion. We found that Treg cells are normally constrained by TCR-specific niches in secondary lymphoid organs, and that intraclonal competition restrains their possibility for conversion and expansion in the spleen and lymph nodes, much as niche competition limits their selection in the thymus. The strong perturbations induced by anti-CD3 overcame these niche limitations, in a process dependent on receptors for trophic cytokines, interleukin-2 receptor (IL-2R) and IL-7R.

Heterogeneous CD3 expression levels in differing T-cell subsets account for in vivo anti-CD3-mediated immune resetting

Project description:The tolerogenic anti-CD3 monoclonal antibodies (anti-CD3) are promising compounds for the treatment of type 1 diabetes (T1D). Anti-CD3 administration induces transient T-cell depletion both in preclinical and in clinical studies. Notably, said depletion mainly affects CD4+ but not CD8+ T cells. Moreover, T1D reversal in preclinical models is accompanied by the selective expansion of CD4+FOXP3+ T regulatory (Treg) cells, which are fundamental for the long-term maintenance of anti-CD3-mediated tolerance. The mechanisms that lead to this immune-shaping by affecting mainly CD4+ T effector cells while sparing CD4+FOXP3+ Treg cells have still to be fully elucidated. This study shows that CD3 expression levels differ from one T-cell subset to another. CD4+FOXP3- T cells contain higher amounts of CD3 molecules than do CD4+FOXP3+ and CD8+ T cells both in mice and in humans. Said differences may explain the anti-CD3-mediated immune resetting that occurs in vivo after anti-CD3 administration in mice. In addition, transcriptome analysis demonstrates that CD4+FoxP3+ Treg cells are significantly less responsive than CD4+FoxP3- T cells to anti-CD3 treatment at molecular levels. Thus, heterogeneity in CD3 expression likely confers the various T-cell subsets differing susceptibility to in vivo tolerogenic anti-CD3-mediated modulation. This data sheds new light on the molecular mechanism that underlies anti-CD3-mediated immune resetting, and thus may open new opportunities to improve this promising treatment.

Differential gene expression microarray analysis of Tregs and Teff cells expanded by TCR-dependent Vs independent methods

Project description:CD4+ cells from Foxp3.eGFP mice containing Foxp3- Teff and Foxp3+ Treg cells were treated with anti-CD3/CD28 monoclonal antibodies or soluble OX40L and JAG1 for 3 days to induce TCR-dependent vs TCR-independent Treg proliferation. Untreated fresh CD4+ T-cells used as control. Post treatment T-cell proliferation was confirmed by Cell Trace violet dilution and Foxp3+ (Treg) and Foxp3-(Teff) were sorted. Differential gene expression profiling between Tregs and Teff cells among control, anti-CD3/CD28 and OX40L-JAG1 treated cultured was performed using affymetrix mouse gene 2.0 ST micro array. We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression underlying Treg proliferation and identified distinct classes of up-regulated genes during this process under different methods of expansion.

Kinetic analysis of the response to anti-CD3 in conventional and regulatory CD4+ T cells, in mice and in vitro.

Project description:Several clinical trials have shown anti-CD3 treatment to be a promising therapy for autoimmune diabetes, but its mechanism of action remains unclear. Foxp3+ regulatory T (Treg) cells are likely to be involved, and we have shown a strong effect of anti-CD3 on homeostatic control of CD4+ FoxP3+ regulatory T (Treg) cells. To analyze the early consequences of anti-CD3 treatment, we sorted and profiled Treg and conventional CD4+ T (Tconv) cells in the first hours and days after anti-CD3 treatment of NOD mice. In practice, NOD mice carrying the Foxp3-GFP reporter were treated with anti-CD3 mAb KT3 (50 ug iv) and CD4+ T cells were sorted from pooled spleen and lymph nodes after 2, 8, 24 and 72 hrs, separating Treg and Tconv cells on the basis of GFP expression. Anti-CD3 treatment led to a transient transcriptional response, terminating faster than most antigen-induced responses. Most transcripts were similarly induced in Treg and Tconv cells, but several were differential, in particular those encoding the IL7 receptor (IL7R) and transcription factors Id2/3 and Gfi1, upregulated in Treg but repressed in Tconv cells. In parallel experiments, we tested the effect of soluble anti-CD3 added to cultures of fresh splenocytes, sorting Treg and Tconv cells at the same time points. Many of the anti-CD3 elicited changes, and of the differential response observed in vivo, were also observed in vitro. Two independent replicate series; Treg and Tconv samples abbreviated TR and TC, respectively. Keywords: Transcriptional activation, TCR All gene expression profiles were obtained from highly purified T cell populations sorted by flow cytometry. RNA from 5 x 104 cells was amplified, labeled, and hybridized to Affymetrix ST1.0 Gene arrays. Raw data were preprocessed with the RMA algorithm in GenePattern, and averaged expression values were used for analysis.

Transcriptional profiling of FOXP3+ Treg cells and corresponding FOXP3-losing cells

Project description:Natural CD4+FOXP3+ regulatory T (Treg) cells constitute a unique T-cell lineage that plays a pivotal role in maintaining immune homeostasis and immune tolerance. Recent studies provide evidence for the heterogeneity and plasticity of the Treg cell lineage. However, the fate of human Treg cells after loss of FOXP3 expression and the underlying epigenetic mechanisms remain to be fully elucidated. Here, we compared gene expression profiles and histone methylation status on two histone H3 lysine residues (H3K4me3 and H3K27me3) of expanded FOXP3+ and corresponding FOXP3-losing Treg cells. DGE assay showed that human Treg cells down-regulated Treg signature genes, whereas up-regulated a set of Th lineages-associated genes, especially for Th2, such as GATA3, GFI1 and IL13, after in vitro expansion. Furthermore, we found that reprogramming of Treg cells was associated with histone modifications, as shown by decreased abundance of permissive H3K4me3 within down-regulated Treg signature genes, such as FOXP3, CTLA4 and LRRC32 loci, although with no significant changes in H3K27me3 modification. Thus, our results indicate that human Treg cells could convert into a Th-like cells upon in vitro expansion, displaying a gene expression signature dominated by Th2 lineage associated genes, and the histone methylation might contribute to such conversion. mRNA profiles of in-vitro-expanded FOXP3+ Treg and FOXP3-losing Treg cells generated by deep sequencing.

Gene profiling data of CD4+ T cells transduced with FOXP3 and candidate cofactors

Project description:The transcription factor FoxP3 partakes dominantly in the specification and function of FoxP3+ CD4+ T regulatory cells (Tregs), but is neither strictly necessary nor sufficient to determine the characteristic Treg transcriptional signature. Computational network inference and experimental testing assessed the contribution of several other transcription factors (TFs). Enforced expression of Helios or Xbp1 elicited specific signatures, but Eos, Irf4, Satb1, Lef1 and Gata1 elicited exactly the same outcome, synergizing with FoxP3 to activate most of the Treg signature, including key TFs, and enhancing FoxP3 occupancy at its genomic targets. Conversely, the Treg signature was robust to inactivation of any single cofactor. A redundant genetic switch thus locks-in the Treg phenotype, a model which accounts for several aspects of Treg physiology, differentiation and stability. To study the impact of FoxP3 and its candidate cofactors (Eos, Gata1, Helios, Irf4, Lef1, Satb1, Xbp1) on the expression of the Treg transcriptional signature, CD4+ conventional T cells (Tconv) activated with anti-CD3+CD28 beads were retrovirally transduced with cDNAs encoding FOXP3, candidate TFs, or a combination of FOXP3 and candidate TFs. After 3 days in culture, the transduced cells were sorted into Trizol, and RNA was purified, labeled and hybridized to Affymetrix arrays.
