The transcription factor IRF4 impedes human CD8 T-cell function and promotes cells proliferation and PD-1 expression

ABSTRACT: The transcription factor IRF4 is well known to be quickly upregulated after TCR activation, and magnitude of IRF4 expression is proportional to the strength of TCR activation. However, contradictory reports have been published as to the role of IRF4 in mouse T-cells during acute and chronic viral infections. Furthermore, no data have been published as to the role of IRF4 in human CD8 T-cells, both in normal and pathological conditions. In this work, we subjected CD8 T-cells from healthy donors to IRF4 overexpression or knock-out and assessed the impact of these modifications on T-cell functions and transcriptome.

The transcription factor IRF4 is essential for T cell receptor affinity mediated metabolic programming and clonal expansion of T cells [ChIP-seq]

Project description:We demonstrate that transcription factor IRF4 is induced in a T cell receptor (TCR) affinity-dependent manner and functions as a dose-dependent regulator of the metabolic function of activated T cells. IRF4 regulates the expression of key molecules required for aerobic glycolysis of effector T cells, and is essential for clonal expansion and maintenance of effector function of antigen-specific CD8+ T cells. Examination of binding sites of transcription factor IRF4 in mouse CD8+ T cells.

ChIP-Seq analysis of BATF, IRF4, the Jun proteins, and histone modifications in effector CD8+ T cells

Project description:The transcription factor BATF is required for Th17 and TFH differentiation. Here, we show that BATF also has a fundamental role in regulating effector CD8+ T cell differentiation. BATF-deficient CD8+ T cells show profound defects in effector expansion and undergo proliferative and metabolic catastrophe early after antigen encounter. BATF, together with IRF4 and Jun proteins, binds to and promotes early expression of genes encoding lineage-specific transcription-factors (T-bet and Blimp-1) and cytokine receptors, while paradoxically repressing genes encoding effector molecules (IFNg and granzyme B). Thus, BATF amplifies TCR-dependent transcription factor expression and augments inflammatory signal propagation but restrains effector gene expression. This checkpoint prevents irreversible commitment to an effector fate until a critical threshold of downstream transcriptional activity has been achieved. This is an examination of 5 different transcription factors (TFs) with 5 different histone modifications in effector CD8+ T cells. Two of the TFs (BATF and IRF4) and the histone modifications were replicated. Appropriate control sequence files for ChIP input, IgG ChIP, and Total H3 are also included.

Graded responses to variable TCR signaling are encoded in the affinities of AICE-containing enhancers responding to BATF and IRF4 [gene expression]

Project description:Variable strengths of T cell receptor (TCR) signaling can produce divergent outcomes for T cell development and function. The mechanisms leading to different outcomes are incompletely understood, but may include distinct activation thresholds for different transcription factors as well as distinct sensitivities among target genes to transcription factors. IRF4 is one transcription factor implicated in responses to variable TCR signal strength. IRF4 expression increases uniformly with increasing TCR signal strength (i.e., analog), but it is unclear how IRF4 induced distinct genes at different levels, rather than different amounts of the same genes. Here, we analyzed global gene expression in TH2 cells and used ChIP-seq to define the relationship between TCR signal strength, enhancer occupancy and transcriptional activity for BATF/IRF4-dependent genes. We show that enhancers exhibit a spectrum of affinity for the BATF/IRF4 ternary complex mediate graded responsiveness of individual genes to increasing TCR signal strength. Differential gene induction by BATF and IRF4 occurs through interaction with enhancer elements of different affinity for BATF/IRF4 complexes. The increased resolution of factor binding site identified using ChIP-exo allowed the identification of a novel AICE2 motif binding BATF/IRF4 with higher affinity and that this may explain the protective role of a single nucleotide polymorphism in the CTLA-4 locus known to decrease the incidence of autoimmune diseases.

Quality of TCR signaling determined by differential affinities of enhancers for the composite BATF–IRF4 transcription factor complex [ChIP-Seq]

Project description:Variable strengths of signaling via the T cell antigen receptor (TCR) can produce divergent outcomes, but the mechanism of this remains obscure. The abundance of the transcription factor IRF4 increases with TCR signal strength, but how this would induce distinct types of responses is unclear. We compared the expression of genes in the TH2 subset of helper T cells to enhancer occupancy by the BATF–IRF4 transcription factor complex at varying strengths of TCR stimulation. Genes dependent on BATF–IRF4 clustered into groups with distinct TCR sensitivities. Enhancers exhibited a spectrum of occupancy by the BATF–IRF4 ternary complex that correlated with the sensitivity of gene expression to TCR signal strength. DNA sequences immediately flanking the previously defined AICE motif controlled the affinity of BATF–IRF4 for direct binding to DNA. Analysis by the chromatin immunoprecipitation–exonuclease (ChIP-exo) method allowed the identification of a previously unknown high-affinity AICE2 motif at a human single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) of the gene encoding the immunomodulatory receptor CTLA-4 that was associated with resistance to autoimmunity. Thus, the affinity of different enhancers for the BATF–IRF4 complex might underlie divergent signaling outcomes in response to various strengths of TCR signaling

In vivo microarray expression data from WT, Irf4-/- and checkpoint blockade treated Irf4-/- TEa CD4+ T cells

Project description:Previously we found that Irf4-deficient T cells were dysfunctional and unable to reject heart allografts and checkpoint blockade treatment could reinvigorate dysfunctional Irf4-deficient T cells and enable them reject heart allografts. But shortly after the reinvigoration those T cells went back to dysfunctional state. TCR-transgenic TEa CD4+ T cells (B6 background) recognize a Balb/c I-Eα allopeptide presented by B6 antigen presenting cells, and were used to assess the effects of immune checkpoint blockades on Irf4-deficient alloreactive T cells. WT, Irf4-/- and checkpoint blockade treated Irf4-/- TEa CD4+ T cells were isolated from Balb/c heart transplanted B6 mice, followed by microarray analysis. To define un-restored gene expressions in Irf4-deficient alloreactive T cells upon immune checkpoint blockades, we compared genes expression level among three groups. We revealed that checkpoint blockade restored the expression levels of the majority of wild-type T cell-expressed genes in Irf4-/- T cells, indicating the reinvigoration of Irf4-/- T cells. The remaining un-restored genes following checkpoint blockade, though minimal in number, may be responsible for the reinvigorated Irf4-/- T cells to become re-dysfunction.

Read-write integration by the IRF4 gene regulatory module dynamically controls T helper cell fate

Project description:Transcriptional regulation of cell fate decisions in the immune system endows cells with specialized function; an iterative process that adapts to the changing landscape of infections. As coordinators of the immune system, T helper cells of the CD4+ lineage possess the ability to differentiate into an array of functional cell states in order to guide the response towards antibody production via the formation of T follicular helper (Tfh) cells or inflammation by the generation of T effector (Teff) cells. Tfh–Teff cell fate choice is mediated by the BCL6–Blimp-1 counter-antagonistic gene regulatory module, polarizing Tfh and Teff cells, respectively. A key question is how T helper cells establish and negotiate BCL6–Blimp-1 counter antagonism to control the output of Tfh and Teff cells. We show that the T cell receptor (TCR)-signal induced transcription factor, IRF4, is necessary for the generation of both BCL6-expressing Tfh cells and Blimp-1-expressing Teff cells. Importantly, we show that increasing TCR signal strength augments the amounts of IRF4 expressed as well as Teff cell fate trajectories that occur at the expense of Tfh cells. Using an orthogonal genetic system, based on a tet-inducible allele of Irf4, we demonstrate that increasing IRF4 expression during priming redirected Tfh cell fate choices towards those of Teff. Importantly, promotion of Teff cell fate trajectories by increased IRF4 expression occurred independently of IL-2 signals. At the molecular level, we link greater IRF4 abundance with its recruitment to low affinity DNA binding sites embedded within regulatory elements affiliated with the Teff gene program, including Blimp-1. Together, these results demonstrate that the Irf4 locus functions as the “reader” of TCR signal strength, in turn, the concentration dependent activity of the IRF4 transcription factor “writes” T helper cell fate choice.
