Innate cells and STAT1-dependent signals orchestrate vaccine-induced protection against invasive Cryptococcus infection

ABSTRACT: Fungal pathogens are underappreciated causes of significant morbidity and mortality worldwide. In previous studies we determined that a heat-killed, Cryptococcus neoformans fbp1-deficient strain (HK-fbp1) is a potent vaccine candidate. We determined that vaccination with HK-fbp1 confers protective immunity against lethal Cryptococcosis in an interferon γ (IFNγ)-dependent manner. In this study, we set out to uncover cellular sources and relevant targets of the protective effects of IFNγ in response to the HK-fbp1 vaccine. We found that early IFNγ production peaks at day 3 and that monocytes and neutrophils are important sources of this cytokine after vaccination. Neutralization of IFNγ at day 3 results in impaired CCR2+ monocyte recruitment and reduced differentiation into monocyte-derived dendritic cells (Mo-DC). In turn, depletion of CCR2+ cells prior to immunization results in impaired activation of IFNγ-producing CD4 and CD8 T cells. Thus, monocytes are important targets of innate IFNγ and help promote further IFNγ production by lymphocytes. We employed monocyte-fate mapper and conditional STAT1 knockout mice to uncover that STAT1 activation in CD11c+ cells, including alveolar macrophages, Mo-DCs, and monocyte-derived macrophages (Mo-Mac) is essential for HK-fbp1 vaccine-induced protection. Altogether, our aggregate findings suggest critical roles for innate cells as orchestrators of vaccine-induced protection against Cryptococcus infection.

Analysis of human classical and non-classical monocytes compared to their dendritic cell counterpart.

Project description:Peripheral blood monocytes are the starting material utilized in conventional dendritic cell (DC) vaccination for the treatment of a broad range of malignancies. While the use of cytokines and growth factors to polarize monocyte-derived DC to distinct phenotypes is well-established, little is known about the contributions of distinct human monocyte subsets to monocyte-derived DC function and patient responses to vaccination. To investigate the status of monocyte subsets in cancer patients and following culture into DC, we isolated classical (C-Mo), intermediate (I-Mo), and non-classical (NC-Mo) from the peripheral blood of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) patients prior to DC vaccination (NCT00085436) and from anonymous healthy donors. Patients treated with DC vaccination who were long term survivors (>100 months survival) had a unique monocyte signature with a two-fold higher percentage of NC-Mo in pretreatment peripheral blood compared to other RCC patients. RCC patient monocytes from each subset were transcriptionally distinct from healthy donor monocytes. Further transcriptional analysis determined that each monocyte subset was characterized by a discrete gene expression profile before and after DC maturation. Phenotypic analysis showed that DC derived from NC-Mo expressed higher levels of CD80, CD83, CD86, HLA-DR, and CD40 compared to DC originating from C-Mo and secreted increased amounts of IL-12p70 following CD40L stimulation. Collectively, these findings establish that DC derived from NC-Mo are potent antigen presenting cells and provide the foundation for future vaccination strategies that enrich NC-Mo prior to DC maturation.

Protective response to Brucella infection

Project description:Brucella ovis causes an important disease characterized by decreased fertility in rams, sporadic abortions in ewes and increased lamb mortality. The live attenuated B. melitensis Rev.1 vaccine is considered the best vaccine available against this infection. However, this vaccine shows variable protective efficacy ranging from 40% to 100%.The objective of this study was to identify possible correlates of protective response to B. ovis infection through the characterization by microarray hybridization and real-time RT-PCR of inflammatory and immune response genes upregulated in rams previously immunized with the B. melitensis Rev 1 vaccine strain and experimentally challenged with B. ovis. Gene expression profiles were compared before and after challenge with B. ovis between rams protected and those vaccinated but found infected after challenge. The genes upregulated in vaccinated and protected rams provide possible correlates of protective response to B. ovis infection in rams immunized with the B. melitensis Rev 1 vaccine. Gene expression profiles were compared before and after vaccination and challenge with B. ovis between rams protected with the B. melitensis Rev 1 vaccine strain and those vaccinated but infected after challenge. Total RNA was isolated from buffy coat samples before vaccination (T0), after vaccination and before challenge (T1) and 60 days post challenge (T2) using TriReagent (Sigma, St. Louis, MO, USA)

Bacterial infection disrupts established germinal center reactions through monocyte recruitment and impaired metabolic adaptation [Single-cell RNA-seq]

Project description:Consecutive exposures to different pathogens are very common and often alter host immune responses. Yet, it remains unknown how a secondary bacterial infection interferes with an ongoing adaptive immune response elicited against primary invading pathogens. Here, we demonstrate that pre-existing germinal center (GC) B cells are incapable of enduring radical metabolic changes induced by recruited Sca-1+ monocytes during Salmonella Typhimurium (STm) infection. GCs-induced by influenza, plasmodium and commensals deteriorated upon STm infection. GC collapse was independent of direct bacterial interactions with B cells, but rather, was induced through recruitment of CCR2-dependent Sca-1+ monocytes. GC collapse was dependent on non-B cell TLR-4, TNFα and IFNγ, which was essential for Sca-1+ monocyte differentiation in the bone-marrow. Monocyte recruitment and GC disruption also occurred during LPS-supplemented vaccination and Listeria monocytogenes infection. Thus, systemic activation of the innate immune response upon lethal bacterial infection is induced at the expense of antibody-mediated immunity.

IFNγ modulates the immunopeptidome of triple negative breast cancer cells by enhancing and diversifying antigen processing and presentation.

Project description:Peptide vaccination remains a viable approach to induce T-cell mediated killing of tumours. To identify potential T-cell targets for Triple-Negative Breast Cancer (TNBC) vaccination, we examined the effect of the pro-inflammatory cytokine interferon-γ (IFNγ) on the transcriptome, proteome and immunopeptidome of the TNBC cell line MDA-MB-231. Using high resolution mass spectrometry, we identified a total of 84,131 peptides from 9,647 source proteins presented by human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-I and HLA-II alleles. Treatment with IFNγ resulted in a remarkable remoulding of the immunopeptidome, with only a 34% overlap between untreated and treated cells across the HLA-I immunopeptidome, and expression of HLA-II only on treated cells. IFNγ increased the overall number, diversity and abundance of the immunopeptidome, as well as the proportion of coverage of source antigens. The suite of peptides displayed under conditions of IFNγ treatment included many known tumour associated antigens, with the HLA-II repertoire sampling 265 breast cancer associated antigens absent from those sampled by HLA-I. Quantitative analysis of the transcriptome (10,248 transcripts) and proteome (6783 proteins) of these cells revealed 229 proteins and transcripts were commonly differentially expressed, most of which involved in downstream targets of IFNγ signalling including components of the antigen processing machinery such as tapasin and HLA. However, these changes in protein expression did not explain the dramatic modulation of the immunopeptidome following IFNγ treatment. These results demonstrate the high degree of plasticity in the immunopeptidome TNBC cells following cytokine stimulation and provide evidence that under pro-inflammatory conditions a greater variety of HLA-I and HLA-II vaccine targets are unveiled to the immune system. This has important implications for the development of personalised cancer vaccination strategies.
