Multimodal probing of T cell sensitivity with hexapod heterostructures

ABSTRACT: Studies employing antigen-presenting systems at the ensemble or single cell level can provide complementary insights into T-cell activation and signaling. However, synthetic material toolkits that probe T cells at both levels are lacking, although they would be essential in advancing basic immunology and immunotherapy. Here, we develop a biomimetic antigen-presenting system (bAPS) using hexapod heterostructures (i.e., a sub-micrometer hematite core, and nanostructured silica branches with diverse surface modifications) for single-cell, single-molecule stimulation and ensemble modulation of T-cell signaling. We report with single molecule resolution of: T-cell sensing/activation by a single agonist peptide-major histocompatibility complex; distinct T-cell receptor (TCR) responses to discriminate structurally similar peptides that differ by just one amino acid; and the superior sensitivity of TCR antigen recognition compared to chimeric antigen receptors (CARs). We also show that magnetic field-induced piconewton×micrometer-level torques on the hexapods amplify immune responses in suspension T and CAR-T cells. Furthermore, by using our bAPS, we have developed a reliable and high-throughput new method for identifying neoantigen-specific TCRs at the single-cell level. The multimodal hexapod bAPS presents an unexplored, nanotechnology-based biointerface tool for investigating recognition, signaling, and the biochemical/mechanical dual sensitivity of T cells and beyond.

Identification of Ligands for the human gamma-delta TCR

Project description:T cells bearing gamma delta T cell antigen receptors (TCRs) function in lymphoid stress surveillance. However, the contribution of gamma delta TCRs to such responses is unclear. Here we found that the TCR of a human V gamma4Vdelta5 clone directly bound endothelial protein C receptor (EPCR), which allowed gamma delta T cells to recognize both endothelial cells targeted by cytomegalovirus and epithelial tumors. EPCR is a major histocompatibility complex–like molecule that binds lipids analogously to the antigen-presenting molecule CD1d. However, the V gamma4Vdelta5 TCR bound EPCR independently of lipids, in an antibody-like way. Moreover, the recognition of target cells by gamma delta T cells required a multimolecular stress signature composed of EPCR and costimulatory ligand(s). Our results demonstrate how a gamma delta TCR mediates recognition of broadly stressed human cells by engaging a stress-regulated self antigen. 2E9 is an antibody that blocks gd-TCR recognition of human cells that are the targets of the clone LES. 2E9 also stains cells that are targeted by LES. Therefore, to identify the TCR ligand expressed by 2E9-positive cells, Gene Expression was compared in two cell lines that stain with 2E9 (K562 and U937) versus two cell lines that do not (Hutu80 and Huh7).

SIFT-seq: VDJ and scRNA-seq of T cells targeting public neoantigens

Project description:We developed a modular, high-throughput discovery platform to simultaneously test whether Mut PIK3Ca is immunogenic and to retrieve paired a/b TCR gene sequences that confer specificity to this NeoAg. This method, termed Stimulation Induced Functional TCR sequencing (SIFT-seq), combines single-cell (sc) TCR V(D)J and transcriptome sequencing. Here, microwell cultures of in vitro stimulated T cells with confirmed neoantigen-specific recognition are selected for SIFT-seq. Matched aliquots of selected wells are acutely stimulated with autologous antigen-presenting cells presenting WT or Mut PI3Ka and the transcriptomic profile of individual clonotypes is assessed to identify neoantigen-specific T cells and retrieve their TCR gene sequences.

Single cell RNA sequencing on pancreatic islet infiltrating T cells from NOD mice.

Project description:CD4+ T cells recognize peptide antigens presented on class II Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC-II) molecules to carry out their function. The remarkable diversity of T cell receptor (TCR) sequences and lack of antigen discovery approaches for MHC-II make profiling the specificities of CD4+ T cells challenging. We have expanded our platform of Signaling and Antigen-presenting Bifunctional Receptors to encode MHC-II molecules presenting covalently linked peptides (SABR-IIs) for CD4+ cell antigen discovery. SABR-IIs can present epitopes to CD4+ T cells and induce signaling upon their recognition, allowing a readable output. Here, we demonstrate that SABR-IIs libraries presenting endogenous and non-contiguous epitopes can be used for antigen discovery. Using SABR-II libraries in conjunction with single cell RNA sequencing, we de-convoluted multiple highly expanded TCRs from pancreatic islets of Non-Obese Diabetic (NOD) mice and identified novel Hybrid Insulin Peptide targets. We compounded antigen discovery by incorporating computational TCR similarity prediction metrics followed by experimental validation. Finally, we showed SABR-IIs presenting epitopes in class II Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA-II) alleles can be used for antigen discovery for human CD4+ T cells. Taken together, we have developed a rapid, flexible, scalable, and versatile approach for de novo identification of CD4+ T cell ligands from single cell RNA sequencing data using experimental and computational approaches.

Rapid TCR:Epitope Ranker (RAPTER): A primary human T cell reactivity screening assay pairing epitope and TCR at single cell resolution

Project description:Identifying epitopes that T cells respond to is critical to understanding T cell-mediated immunity. Traditional multimer and other single cell assays often require large blood volumes and/or expensive HLA-specific reagents and provide limited phenotypic and functional information. Here, we present the Rapid TCR:Epitope Ranker (RAPTER) assay, a single cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-SEQ) method that uses primary human T cells and antigen presenting cells (APCs) to assess functional T cell reactivity at single cell resolution. Using hash-tag oligonucleotide (HTO) coding and T cell activation-induced markers (AIM), RAPTER defines paired epitope specificity and TCR sequence and can include RNA- and protein-level T cell phenotype information. We demonstrate that RAPTER identified specific reactivities to viral and tumor antigens at sensitivities as low as 0.15% of total CD8+ T cells, and deconvoluted low-frequency circulating HPV16-specific T cell clones from a cervical cancer patient. The specificities of TCRs identified by RAPTER for MART1, EBV, and influenza epitopes were functionally confirmed in vitro. In summary, RAPTER identifies low-frequency T cell reactivities using primary cells from low blood volumes, and the resulting paired TCR: ligand information can directly enable immunogenic antigen selection for vaccine epitope inclusion, antigen-specific TCR tracking, and TCR cloning for further therapeutic development.

Glycogene expression during maturation of human antigen-presenting cells

Project description:Dr. van Kooyk's laboratory is exploring the function of antigen presenting cells, such as dendritic cells (DC), that regulate viral-antigen recognition, DC trafficking and T cell binding--all processes that initiate immunity or tolerance. Essential in this is the recognition of ligands by C-type lectins and the functional consequences of differential terminal glycosylation that may regulate DC function. In this study, the gene expression profile of glycosylation-related genes is examined in relation to the maturation of human antigen-presenting cells. Two pooled RNA samples, one each from immature and mature human monocyte-derived dendritic cells, were prepared and sent to Microarray Core (E). The RNA was amplified, labeled, and hybridized to the GLYCOv3 microarrays.

TCR repertoire profiling of CMV specific and SARS-CoV2 Spike specific CD8+ T cells using single cell sequencing

Project description:We introduced single-chain trimer (SCT) technologies into a high throughput platform for pMHC library generation that can be used for screening antigen specific CD8+ T cells. We compared the diversity of T cell receptor repertoire captured by SCT and folded peptide-MHC multimer presenting HLA-A02:01 restricted CMV peptide. We then constructed SCT libraries designed to capture SARS-CoV-2 spike specific CD8+ T cells from COVID-19 participants and healthy donors. TCR sequencing with antigen specificity was analyzed. The immunogenicity of these epitopes was validated by functional assays of T cells with cloned TCRs captured using SCT libraries.

Exploiting trogocytosis by Immunopeptidomics to profile tumor associated antigens (TAA) actively targeted by tumor specific T cells in leukemia.

Project description:We employed PeptiCHIP Immunopeptidomics to profile tumor associated antigens (TAA) actively targeted by tumor specific T cells by exploiting the trogocytosis effect, whereby antigen presenting cells (APCs) nibble portions of the cognate T cell containing the TCR. The antigen presenting cells were then processed by Immunoaffinity purification by peptiCHIP to identify the relevant HLA-I peptides by LCMS on the Bruker Tims TOF Pro instrument.

NK receptors replace CD28 as the dominant source of signal 2 for cognate recognition of cancer cells by TAA-specific effector CD8+ T cells

Project description:CD28-driven “signal 2” is critical for naïve CD8+ T cell responses to dendritic cell (DC)-presented weak antigens, including non-mutated tumor-associated antigens (TAAs). However, it is unclear how DC-primed cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) respond to the same TAAs presented by cancer cells which lack CD28 ligands. Here, we show that NK receptors (NKRs) DNAM-1 and NKG2D replace CD28 during CTL re-activation by cancer cells presenting low levels of MHC I/TAA complexes, leading to enhanced proximal TCR signaling, immune synapse formation, CTL polyfunctionality, release of cytolytic granules and antigen-specific cancer cell killing. Double-transduction of T cells with recombinant TCR and NKR constructs or upregulation of NKR-ligand expression on cancer cells by chemotherapy enabled effective recognition and killing of poorly immunogenic tumor cells by CTLs. Operational synergy between TCR and NKRs in CTL recognition explains the ability of cancer-expressed self-antigens to serve as tumor rejection antigens, helping to develop more effective therapies.
