Gene expression profiles of mouse Blimp1 +/gfp and Blimp1 gfp/gfp regulatory T cells

ABSTRACT: Regulatory T (Treg) cells are required for peripheral tolerance. Recent evidence indicates that Treg cells can adopt specialized differentiation programs in the periphery that are controlled by transcription factors usually associated with T helper differentiation. We demonstrate that expression of the transcription factor Blimp1 defines a population of Treg cells that localize predominantly to mucosal sites and produces IL-10. Blimp1 is required for IL-10 production by these cells and for their tissue homeostasis. A list of differentially expressed genes were identified from this whole-genome expression profiling experiment.

Blimp1 is required to repress Foxp3+ regulatory T cell pathogenic activity in mice

Project description:Foxp3+Tregcells are essential modulators of immune responses but under specific conditions can acquire inflammatory properties and potentially contribute to disease pathogenesis. Here we show that the transcription factor Blimp1 is a critical regulator of Foxp3+Treg functional plasticity. The intrinsic expression of Blimp1 was required to prevent Treg from producing Th17-associated cytokines and acquiring an inflammatory phenotype while preserving Foxp3 expression. Mechanistically, Blimp1 acts as a direct repressor of the Il17a/Il17f genes in Foxp3+Treg and binding of Blimp1 at this locus is associated with altered chromatin status, reduced binding the co-activator p300, unaltered binding of the Th17-asssociated transcription factor RORt and more abundant binding of IRF4, which was required for the production of IL17A in Blimp1-deficient Foxp3+Tregcells, as shown by IRF4 siRNA-mediated knockdown. Consistent with their capacity to produce inflammatory cytokines, Blimp1-deficient Foxp3+Treg exacerbate Th17-mediated inflammation in vivo indicating that Blimp1 is required to prevent Treg cells from acquiring pathogenic properties

Blimp1 maintains regulatory T cell identity at sites of inflammation through epigenetic imprinting

Project description:Foxp3+ regulatory T (Treg) cells restrict immune pathology in inflamed tissues; however, an inflammatory environment presents a threat to Treg cell identity and function. We here establish a transcriptional signature of central nervous system (CNS) Treg cells that accumulate during experimental autoimmune encephalitis (EAE) and identify a pathway that maintains Treg cell function and identity during severe inflammation. This pathway was dependent on the transcriptional regulator Blimp1, which prevented dismantling of Foxp3 expression and "toxic" gain-of-function of Treg cells in the inflamed CNS. Blimp1 negatively regulated IL-6- and STAT3-mediated methylation of Treg cell-specific conserved non-coding sequence 2 (CNS2) in the Foxp3 locus. Consequently, CNS2 was heavily methylated when Blimp1 was ablated, leading to loss of Foxp3 expression and severe disease. These findings identify a Blimp1-dependent epigenetic pathway that preserves Treg cell stability in inflamed non-lymphoid tissues.

Blimp1 controls plasma cell physiology and function

Project description:Antibody-secreting plasma cells are the terminal stage of the B-cell lineage. Plasma cell differentiation requires a major resetting of gene expression to silence the B cell transcriptional program, whilst establishing secretory function and long-term survival. The transcription factors Blimp1 and Irf4 are essential for the initial differentiation of activated B cells to antibody-secreting cells, however their function in mature plasma cells remains elusive. We have found that while Irf4 was essential for plasma cell survival, Blimp1 was dispensable. Blimp1-deficient cells retained the unique plasma cell transcriptional signature, but lost the ability to secrete antibody or to maintain the characteristic size and ultrastructure of plasma cells. Blimp1 was required for full expression of many components of the unfolded protein response (UPR), including Xbp1 and Atf6, as well as for the appropriate processing of Igh mRNA. The overlap of Blimp1 and Xbp1 function was restricted to the UPR genes, with Blimp1 uniquely regulating activity of the mTOR pathway, plasma cell size and morphology. These studies establish Blimp1 as a major regulator of the UPR pathway that is also required for the unique metabolic requirements of plasma cells enabling the secretion of protective antibody. RNA-seq was performed on wild type, Blimp1-/- and Xbp1-/- mouse plasma cells. Between two to four biological replicates were generated and sequenced for each sample.

Hobit and Blimp1 instruct a universal transcriptional program of tissue-residency in lymphocytes

Project description:Tissue-resident memory T cells (Trm) permanently localize to portals of pathogen entry, where they provide immediate protection against re-infection. To enforce tissue retention, Trm upregulate CD69 and downregulate molecules associated with tissue egress including CCR7 and S1PR1. Although suppression of the transcription factor KLF2 in Trm prevents S1PR1-driven migration, a Trm-specific transcriptional regulator has not been identified. Here, we show that the transcription factor Hobit is specifically upregulated in Trm and together with related Blimp1, mediates the development of Trm in skin, gut, liver and kidney. Importantly, the Hobit/Blimp1 transcriptional module is also required for other populations of tissue-resident lymphocytes including NKT cells and liver-resident NK cells, all of which share a common transcriptional program that includes repression of Ccr7, S1pr1, and Klf2. Our results identify Hobit and Blimp1 as central regulators of this universal program that instructs tissue retention in diverse tissue-resident lymphocyte populations.

Hobit and Blimp1 instruct a universal transcriptional program of tissue-residency in lymphocytes

Project description:Tissue-resident memory T cells (Trm) are non-circulating memory T cells that localize to portals of pathogen entry such as the skin, gut and lung where they provide efficient early protection against reinfection. Trm are characterized by a molecular profile that actively prevents egress from peripheral sites including the constitutive expression of the lectin CD69 and down-regulation of the chemokine receptor (CCR)7 and sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor 1 (S1PR1). This program is partially mediated by down-regulation of the transcription factor KLF2; however, to date no transcriptional regulator specific to Trm has been identified. Here we show that the Blimp1 related transcription factor Hobit is specifically upregulated in Trm and together with Blimp1, mediates the development and maintenance of Trm in various tissues including skin, gut, liver and kidney. Importantly, we found that the Hobit/Blimp1 transcriptional module is also required for other tissue-resident lymphocytes including Natural Killer T (NKT) cells and liver tissue-resident NK cells (trNK). We show that these populations share a universal transcriptional program with Trm instructed by Hobit and Blimp1 that includes the repression of CCR7, S1PR1 and KLF2 thereby enforcing tissue retention. Our results identify Hobit and Blimp1 as major common regulators that drive the differentiation of distinct populations of tissue-resident lymphocytes.

Gene analysis of tumor cells from mice with the Treg-specific deletion of Blimp1 compared to WT mice (NanoString Cancer)

Project description:We observed that mice with the Treg-specific deletion of Blimp1 had delayed and smaller tumor growth associated with the activation of tumor-infiltrating immune effector cells. To determine what extent disruptions of Treg suppressive activity by a specific deletion of Blimp1 could impact on the tumor, we assessed the gene expression of sorted tumor cells by NanoString analysis.
