HELIOS identifies an HLA-E-restricted CD8 T cell population and is associated with low effector functions.

ABSTRACT: The transcription factor HELIOS is primarily known for its expression in CD4 regulatory T cells. In mice, HELIOS is also found in exhausted CD8 T cells. However, information on human HELIOS+ CD8 T cells is limited and conflicting. In this study, we characterized human HELIOS+ CD8 T cells, and found that these cells comprise approximately 21% of blood CD8 T cells. The majority of HELIOS+ CD8 T cells are memory cells, and some of them recognize peptides presented by the MHC class Ib molecule HLA-E. Memory HELIOS- T-BEThigh CD8 T cells displayed robust effector functions, while HELIOS+ T-BEThigh CD8 T cells produce low amounts of IFN- and TNF- and have a lower cytotoxic potential. Additionally, a portion of HELIOS+ CD8 T cells express TH17/TC17-related genes RORt, ROR, PLZF, CD161 and CCL20. Thus, HELIOS is expressed in various CD8 T cell populations, including T-BEThigh cells with lower effector functions, and TC17 cells. It remains to be understood why so many individuals maintain in their blood high amounts of HELIOS+ T-BEThigh CD8 T cells that produce low amounts of cytokines upon activation and what the connection between HELIOS and HLA-E restriction means.

TCF-1 regulation of CD8+ T cell chromatin accessibility

Project description:CD8+ T cell differentiation traditionally results in the emergence of two subsets, Tc1 cells that produce interferon (IFN)-gamma and memory cells that mediate immune protection against pathogen infections. More recently, it has emerged that other specialized CD8+ T cell populations develop in immune responses and are critical to orchestrate complete immune protection. These subsets include tissue-resident memory (Trm) T cells, follicular cytotoxic T cells and two CD8+ T cell subsets that produce interleukin (IL)-17, namely, mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells and Tc17 cells. Here we investigated the role of TCF-1 in CD8+ T cell differentiation by using Assay for Transposase-Accessible Chromatin sequencing (ATAC-Seq) to determine the chromatin accessibility landscape of CD8+ T cells and how this is controlled by TCF-1. Loss of TCF-1 was associated with global changes in the chromatin architecture in CD8+ T cells leading to increased accessibility of Rorc and Tc17 effector genes IL-17a and IL-17f in Tc17 cells. In contrast, we observed reduced accessibility of Tbx21, Eomes and Irf4 loci in Tc17 cells, genes normally required for the induction of Tc1 and memory CD8+ T cells

Stable inhibitory activity of regulatory T cells requires the transcription factor Helios

Project description:The maintenance of immune homeostasis requires regulatory T cells (Tregs). Given their intrinsic self-reactivity, Tregs must stably maintain a suppressive phenotype to avoid autoimmunity. We report that impaired expression of the transcription factor (TF) Helios by FoxP3+ CD4 and Qa-1-restricted CD8 Tregs results in defective regulatory activity and autoimmunity in mice. Helios-deficient Treg develop an unstable phenotype during inflammatory responses characterized by reduced FoxP3 expression and increased effector cytokine expression secondary to diminished activation of the STAT5 pathway. CD8 Treg also require Helios-dependent STAT5 activation for survival and to prevent terminal T cell differentiation. Definition of Helios as a key transcription factor that stabilizes regulatory T-cells in the face of inflammatory responses provides a genetic explanation for a core property of regulatory T-cells. We used microarrays to detail the global programs of gene expression by CD8 Treg (CD44+CD122+Ly49+) and conventional memory type of CD8 cells (CD44+CD122+Ly49-).

Rapid proliferation and differentiation impairs the development of memory CD8+ T cells in early life

Project description:Neonates often generate incomplete immunity against intracellular pathogens, although the mechanism of this defect is poorly understood. An important question is whether the impaired development of memory CD8+ T cells in neonates is due to an immature priming environment or lymphocyte-intrinsic defects. Here we show that neonatal and adult CD8+ T cells adopted different fates when responding to equal amounts of stimulation in the same host. While adult CD8+ T cells differentiated into a heterogeneous pool of effector and memory cells, neonatal CD8+ T cells preferentially gave rise to short-lived effector cells and exhibited a distinct gene expression profile. Surprisingly, impaired neonatal memory formation was not due to a lack of responsiveness, but instead because neonatal CD8+ T cells expanded more rapidly than adult cells and quickly became terminally differentiated. Collectively, these findings demonstrate that neonatal CD8+ T cells exhibit an imbalance in effector and memory CD8+ T cell differentiation, which impairs the formation of memory CD8+ T cells in early life mRNA profiles of effector CD8+ T cells from neonatal and adult mice

Transcription Factor Foxo1 Controls Memory CD8+ T Cell Responses To Infection [ChIP-Seq]

Project description:Memory T cells provide immunity against pathogen reinvasion, but mechanisms of their long-term maintenance is unclear. Here we show that mice with the deletion of the transcription factor Foxo1 in activated CD8+ T cells had defective secondary but not primary responses to Listeria monocytogenes infection. Compared to short-lived effector T cells, memory precursor effector T cells expressed higher amounts of Foxo1 that promoted their generation and maintenance. Gene expression profiling and chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing experiments revealed the chemokine receptor CCR7 and the transcription factor TCF1 as novel Foxo1-bound target genes with critical functions in memory T cell trafficking and transcriptional regulation. These findings demonstrate that Foxo1 is selectively incorporated into the genetic program that regulates memory but not effector CD8+ T cell responses to infection. CD8+ T cells were isolated from wild-type or Foxo1tagBirA mice in which Foxo1 is endogenously biotinylated. Foxo1 binding targets in CD8+ cells were identified by using Foxo1 antibody- and Streptavidin- ChIP-Seq approaches.

Tc17 cells are a pro-inflammatory, plastic lineage of pathogenic CD8+ T-cells that induce GVHD without anti-leukemic effects

Project description:IL-17-producing cells are important mediators of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) after allogeneic stem cell transplantation (SCT). Here we demonstrate that a distinct CD8+ Tc17 population develops rapidly after SCT but fails to maintain lineage fidelity such that they are unrecognizable in the absence of a fate reporter. Tc17 differentiation is dependent on alloantigen presentation by host-DC together with IL-6. Tc17 cells express high levels of multiple prototypic lineage-defining transcription factors (e.g. RORgt, T-bet) and cytokines (e.g. IL-17A, IL-22, IFNg, GM-CSF, IL-13). Targeted depletion of Tc17 early after transplant protects from lethal acute GVHD, however Tc17 cells are non-cytolytic and fail to mediate graft–versus–leukemia (GVL) effects. Thus, the Tc17 differentiation program during GVHD culminates in a highly plastic, hyper-inflammatory, poorly-cytolytic effector population which we term inflammatory Tc17 (iTc17). Since iTc17 mediate GVHD without contributing to GVL, therapeutic inhibition of iTc17 development in a clinical setting represents an attractive approach for separating GVHD and GVL.

Developmental self-reactivity determines the pathogenic Tc17 differentiation potential of naive CD8+ T cells by adjusting endogenous SMAD3 expression

Project description:The differentiation of naive CD8+ T cells into effector cells is important for establishing immunity. However, the effect of heterogeneous naive CD8+ T cell populations is not fully understood. Here, we demonstrate that steady-state naive CD8+ T cells are composed of functionally heterogeneous subpopulations that differ in their ability to differentiate into type 17 cytotoxic effector cells (Tc17) in inflammatory disease models. The differential ability of Tc17 differentiation was not related to T-cell receptor (TCR) diversity and antigen specificity but was inversely correlated with self-reactivity acquired during development. Mechanistically, this phenomenon was linked to differential levels of intrinsic TCR sensitivity and basal SMAD3 expression, generating a wide spectrum of Tc17 differentiation potential within naive CD8+ T cell populations. These findings suggest that developmental self-reactivity can determine the fate of naive CD8+ T cells to generate functionally distinct effector populations and achieve immense diversity and complexity in antigen-specific T-cell immune responses.

Gene expression profiling of WT and STAT3-/- Tc17 CD8+ T cells

Project description:CD8+ T cells are pre-programmed for cytotoxic differentiation. However, a subset of effector CD8+ T cells (‘Tc17’) produce IL-17 and fail to express cytotoxic genes. Here, we show that the transcription factors directing IL-17 production inhibit cytotoxicity despite persistent Runx3 expression. Cytotoxic gene repression did not require the transcription factor Thpok. We further show that STAT3 restrained cytotoxic gene expression in CD8+ T cells and that RORgt represses cytotoxic genes by inhibiting the functions but not the expression of the ‘cytotoxic’ transcription factors T-bet and Eomesodermin. Thus, the transcriptional circuitry directing IL-17 expression inhibits cytotoxic functions.

RNA-seq expression profiling of humain MAIT cells in blood and liver as compared to mainstream TCD4+ and TCD8+ cells.

Project description:At variance with what is observed in mice, no distinct MAIT1 or MAIT17 subsets exist in human blood, as all MAIT cells express a variety of transcription factors such as Rorgt, Tbet, Eomes and Helios. However, they are also found in tissues in which they have specific effector functions. To determine these tissue programs, we analyzed the transcription pattern of MAIT cells as compared to mainstream memory (CD45RA-CD27+) CD4+ and CD8+ T cells from human blood and liver. The paired samples of blood and liver cells were obtained from patients operated for metastatic uveal melanoma (liver samples from a “healthy” liver fragment), and from the blood of healthy controls.
