Regulatory T cell adoptive transfer alters uterine macrophage populations, increasing a novel MHC-II-low macrophage associated with healthy pregnancy.

ABSTRACT: To investigate local immune mechanisms of intrauterine fetal demise (IUFD), we used the CBA mouse strain, which naturally has mid-late gestation fetal loss. We performed a Treg adoptive transfer and interrogated both pregnancy outcomes and the impact of systemic maternal Tregs on mucosal immune populations at the maternal-fetal interface. Treg transfer prevented fetal loss and increased an MHC-IIlow population of uterine macrophages. Single-cell RNA-sequencing was utilized to precisely evaluate the impact of systemic Tregs on uterine myeloid populations. A population of C1q+, Trem2+, MHC-IIlow uterine macrophages were increased in Treg-recipient mice. The transcriptional signature of this novel uterine macrophage subtype is enriched in multiple studies of human healthy decidual macrophages, suggesting a conserved role for these macrophages in preventing fetal loss.

regulatory T cells in human pregnancy

Project description:Transplacental immune programming refers to the concept that during pregnancy, significant crosstalk occurs between the maternal and fetal immune system, with consequent long‐term effects especially for the offspring. In this study, we searched for evidence of transplacental programming in cellular immunity. We made the surprising observation that there is a stringent and specific correlation of regulatory T cells (Treg) between the mother and the fetus. Gene microarray analysis indicates that interleukin 10 (IL‐10) might be involved in transplacental Treg alignment. This is further supported by the direct correlation of IL‐10 at a protein level between maternal fetal dyads. In vitro data provide evidence that IL‐10 may regulate the homeostatic balance between Tregs and non‐Tregs through selective upregulation of the anti‐apoptotic molecule Bcl‐2 in Tregs. Induction of IL‐10 might be triggered by fetus‐derived estriol (E3), which readily crosses the placenta and correlates with maternal IL‐ 10 levels. Our study represents the first example of transplacental regulation of cellular immunity between the mother and the fetus. These novel findings might have major implications for pregnancy related‐changes in the maternal and fetal immune system, and provide possible mechanistic insights into how prenatal influences can lead to subsequent immunopathologies, such as allergy and autoimmunity.

Regulatory T cells promote decidual vascular remodeling by modulating uterine natural killer cells to support pregnancy in mice

Project description:Regulatory T (Treg) cells are essential for maternal immune tolerance of the fetus and placenta. In preeclampsia, aberrant Treg cell tolerance is implicated, but whether and how Treg cells affect the uterine vascular dysfunction thought to precede placental impairment and maternal vasculopathy is unclear. We utilized Foxp3 DTR mice to test the hypothesis that Treg cells are essential regulators of decidual spiral artery adaptation to pregnancy. Transient Treg cell depletion during early placental morphogenesis caused impaired remodeling of decidual spiral arteries and altered uterine artery function, resulting in late gestation fetal loss and fetal growth restriction. Treg cell depletion impaired acquisition of the activation receptor NKp46 on uterine natural killer (uNK cells) and was associated with reduced decidual synthesis of Treg cell-derived cytokines Il35, Il10 and Tgfb implicated in modulating uNK cell phenotype. When Treg cells were replaced, the adverse impact on uNK cell abundance and phenotype, decidual spiral artery remodeling, uterine artery function, and fetal loss was mitigated. These data implicate Treg cells as essential upstream drivers of uterine vascular adaptation to pregnancy through regulation of uNK cell recruitment and activation. The findings provide a mechanism linking impaired adaptive immune tolerance and altered spiral artery remodeling, two hallmark features of preeclampsia.

Expression data from self-deprived regulatory CD4 T cells

Project description:Disruption of TCR /MHC class II interactions leads rapidly to alterations of the common CD4 Treg transcriptional signature Self-deprived, non-functional Tregs were compare to fully functional Tregs by microarrays. Total T cells from the periphery of WT mice were adoptively transferred into CD3ε-/- recipient mice lacking or not MHC class II molecule expression (MHC II- or MHC II+ recipient mice, respectively). Five days later, peripheral Tregs transferred in MHC II - competent (CD4CD25B6) or - deficient (CD4CD25IIko) recipient were purified for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays.

Regulatory T Cells Play a Central Role in a Subset of Idiopathic Preterm Birth and Adverse Neonatal Outcomes

Project description:Regulatory T cells (Tregs) have been exhaustively investigated during early pregnancy; however, their role later in gestation is poorly understood. Herein, we report that functional Tregs are reduced at the maternal-fetal interface in a subset of women with idiopathic preterm labor/birth (PTB), which is accompanied by a concomitant increase in Tc17 cells. In mice, depletion of functional Tregs during late gestation induced PTB and adverse neonatal outcomes, which were rescued by the adoptive transfer of such cells. Treg depletion did not alter obstetrical parameters in the mother; yet, it increased susceptibility to endotoxin-induced PTB. The mechanisms whereby the loss of Tregs induces adverse perinatal outcomes involved tissue-specific immune responses and mild systemic maternal inflammation together with dysregulation of developmental and cellular processes in the placenta, in the absence of intra-amniotic inflammation. These findings provide mechanistic evidence supporting a central role for Tregs in the pathophysiology of idiopathic PTB and adverse neonatal outcomes.

Total uterus transcriptome after depletion of regulatory T cells at E8 of murine pregnancy

Project description:Regulatory T cells (Tregs) contribute to successful pregnancy by promoting maternal-fetal tolerance. We depleted Tregs using diphtheria toxin (DT) in the Foxp3DTR mouse model after allogenic mating with BALB/c males and we performed a complete NGS transcriptome analysis by RNA-seq at 100 million reads/sample of total uterine tissues at day 8 post coitum from control (PBS1X treated) and diphtheria toxin (DT) treated mice.

Uterine transcriptome in b2m KO mice

Project description:Natural killer (NK) cell function is enhanced by interaction of inhibitory NK receptors with MHC class I molecules. NK cell function is critical during placentation, where these cells mediate adaptations to pregnancy in concert with other cells at the maternal/fetal interface. The aim of this experiment was to determine the downstream consequences on the uterine transcriptome that arise from lack of NK interaction with MHC class I molecules. This was done in mice lacking beta-2-microglobulin, thus not having correctly folded surface MHC class I. Biopsies were obtained from the mesometrial poles of the implantation chamber in gestation day (gd) 10.5 pregnant mice.

Unravelling the sex-specific diversity and functions of adrenal gland macrophages (RNA-Seq).

Project description:Despite the ubiquitous function of macrophages across the body, the diversity, origin, and function of adrenal gland macrophages remain largely unknown. We defined the heterogeneity of adrenal gland immune cells using single-cell RNA sequencing and used genetic models to explore the developmental mechanisms yielding to macrophage diversity. We defined populations of monocyte-derived and embryonically seeded adrenal gland macrophages and identified a female-specific subset with low MHC-II expression. In adulthood, monocyte recruitment dominated adrenal gland macrophage maintenance in female mice, while self-proliferation was more important in males. Adrenal gland macrophage sub-tissular distribution followed a sex-dimorphic pattern, with MHC-IIlow macrophages located at the border between the cortex and the medulla. Macrophage sex dimorphism depended on the presence of the cortical Xzone. Forcing X-zone maintenance in males, or its degradation in females, directly impacted the presence of MHC-IIlow macrophages. Adrenal gland macrophage depletion resulted in altered tissue homeostasis, modulated lipid- metabolism and decreased local aldosterone production during stress exposure. Overall, these data explain the heterogeneity of adrenal gland macrophages and point toward sexrestricted distribution and functions of these cells.
