Identification of an anergic BND cell-derived activated B cell population (BND2) in young-onset type 1 diabetes

ABSTRACT: Recent evidence suggests a role for B cells in the pathogenesis of type 1 diabetes (T1D), particularly in individuals who develop T1D at a younger age and demonstrate rapid progression and beta cell loss. However, little is known regarding the specificity, phenotype, and function of B cells in young-onset T1D. We performed a cross-sectional analysis comparing insulin-reactive to tetanus-reactive B cells in the blood of T1D and controls using mass cytometry. Unsupervised clustering revealed the existence of a highly activated B cell subset, we term BND2, that falls within the previously defined anergic BND subset. We found a specific increase in the frequency of insulin-reactive BND2 cells in the blood of young-onset T1D donors, which was further enriched in the pancreatic lymph nodes of T1D donors. The frequency of insulin-binding BND2 cells correlated with anti-insulin autoantibody levels in T1D subjects. We demonstrate BND2 cells phenotypically and functionally are pre-plasma cells and can likely act as antigen-presenting cells to T cells. These findings suggest that activation of insulin-reactive anergic B cells may play a role in the rapid progression of young-onset T1D and warrants further investigation in other autoimmune conditions.

NOD Mouse Islet Peptide Content Identification

Project description:Beta-cells produce hybrid insulin peptides (HIPs) by linking insulin fragments to other peptides through peptide bonds. HIPs have unique amino acid sequences and are targeted by autoreactive T cells in type 1 diabetes (T1D). Individuals with recent-onset T1D have significantly higher levels of HIP-reactive T cells in their blood compared to non-diabetic control subjects. HIP-reactive T cells have also been found in the residual pancreatic islets of deceased T1D organ donors. In non-obese diabetic (NOD) mice, a major T1D animal model, several CD4 T cell clones that trigger diabetes have been shown to target HIPs. Through mass spectrometry, a subgroup of HIPs containing N-terminal amine groups of various peptides linked to aspartic acid residues of insulin C-peptide has been detected in NOD islets. Our research reveals that these HIPs form spontaneously in beta-cells via an aspartic anhydride intermediate mechanism. This process leads to the creation of a regular HIP with a standard peptide bond and a HIP-isomer (isoHIP) with an isopeptide bond linked to the carboxylic acid side-chain of the aspartic acid residue. Our mass spectrometric analyses confirmed the presence of both HIP isomers in murine islets, thereby validating the occurrence of this new reaction mechanism in beta-cells. The spontaneous formation of neoepitopes through the development of new peptide bonds within cells may contribute to the pathogenesis of T1D and other autoimmune diseases.

CITEseq of lymphocytes from pancreatic lymph nodes, mesenteric lymph nodes, and spleen from 20 Human Pancreas Analysis Program (HPAP) donors

Project description:Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is caused by the autoimmune destruction of insulin-producing pancreatic beta cells, leading to life-long dependence on exogenous insulin. Profiling immune cells that infiltrate islets would be invaluable to understanding how beta cell destruction occurs. However, human pancreatic samples demonstrating active infiltration and beta cell destruction are rare. Alternatively, peri-pancreatic lymph nodes (pLNs) or other secondary lymphoid organs may harbor immune cells which participate in memory responses that drive T1D autoimmunity. To study the immune response throughout T1D onset and disease, lymphocytes from pLNs, mesenteric lymph nodes (mesLNs), and the spleen were collected from human T1D, auto-antibody positive (AAb+), and normal donors (NDs) enrolled in the Human Pancreas Analysis Program (HPAP). Tissue immune cell identity, phenotype, and transcriptional status was analyzed using Cellular Indexing of Transcriptomes and Epitopes by Sequencing (CITEseq). Lymphocytes from 20 pLN, 12 mesLN, and 18 spleen samples spanning 6 ND, 7 AAb+, and 7 T1D donors were thawed and processed through the CITEseq pipeline. At least 5 donors per disease group had a paired pLN and spleen sample, with at least 3 of the 5 donors per disease group having a paired mesLN sample, allowing for cross-tissue immune status comparison spanning multiple stages of disease onset. The dataset provides one of the first and largest CITEseq datasets on human AAb+ and T1D samples publicly available.

Germline-like TCR alpha chains shared between autoreactive T cells in blood and pancreas [dataset2]

Project description:How human islet antigen reactive CD4+ memory T cells (IAR T cells) from peripheral blood affect Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) progression in the pancreas is poorly understood. We identified paired alpha/beta (TRA/TRB) T cell receptors (TCRs) in IAR T cells from the blood of healthy, at-risk, new onset, and established T1D donors, and measured sequence overlap with TCRs in pancreata from organ donors. We detected extensive TRA junction sharing between IAR T cells and pancreatic infiltrating T cells (PIT), with perfect or single mismatched TRA junction amino acid sequences comprising ~34% of unique IAR TRA junctions. PIT-matched TRA junctions were largely public, and showed significant nucleotide sequence convergence, increased use of germline-encoded residues in epitope engagement, and a potential for cross-reactivity. The link with T cells in the pancreas implicates autoreactive IAR T cells with shared TRA junctions in the prediabetic and new onset phases of T1D progression.

Single cell RNA-seq reveals expansion of IGRP-reactive CD4+ T cells in recent onset type I diabetes (single-cell RNA-seq of CD8+ influenza-reactive T cells)

Project description:Islet-reactive T cells found in peripheral blood of type 1 diabetes (T1D) subjects are thought to be involved in disease pathogenesis, but full understanding of their role is complicated by their presence also in blood of in healthy subjects. To elucidate their role in T1D, we have combined flow cytometry and single cell RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) techniques to link prior antigen exposure, inferred from expanded TCR clonotypes, and functional capacities of islet antigen-reactive CD4+ memory T cells. We find that cells activated by pooled peptides from immunodominant islet antigens showed significantly higher clonotype sharing within recent onset T1D subjects than in healthy individuals, consistent with in vivo T cell expansion during disease progression. There was no clonotype sharing between donors, indicating a predominance of TCRs with distinct or “private” specificities. Expanded clonotypes could be stable, as one was detected at repeat visits by spanning more than a year by one subject. We identified distinct IGRP peptides as the targets of expanded TCR clonotypes from two T1D subjects, thereby implicating this molecule as a trigger for CD4+ T cell expansion during T1D. Transcriptome profiles of cells from T1D and healthy subjects differed, particularly in cells having the most highly expanded TCR clonotypes. As a group, cells with the most highly expanded TCR clonotypes showed Th2-like phenotypes, but at the single cell level there was phenotypic heterogeneity within and between donors. Our findings demonstrate unique specificities and phenotypes of individual islet-reactive CD4+ memory T cells that have expanded during disease progression.

Gene expression of control and anergic CD4+ T cells in the mouse

Project description:Anergic T cells are unable to respond to antigen though their TCR is specific for it. Chronic infections and cancer can induce a dsyfunctional immune response which cannot clear the cause of disease. We asked in how far anergic T cells are similar to antigen-exhausted ones.
