Functional memory T cells are derived from exhausted clones and expanded by checkpoint blockade [ATAC-Seq]

ABSTRACT: Immune checkpoint blockade can facilitate tumor clearance by T cells, resulting in long term patient survival. However, the capacity of exhausted CD8+ T cells (Tex), present during chronic antigen exposure, to form memory after antigen clearance remains unclear. Here, we performed longitudinal single cell RNA/T cell receptor sequencing and ATAC-sequencing on antigen-specific T cells after the peripheral clearance of chronic lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus infection. These data revealed the formation of a robust population of memory CD8+ T cells that transcriptionally, epigenetically, and functionally resemble central memory T cells (Tcm) that form after clearance of acute infection. To lineage trace the origin and memory recall response of Tex-derived memory clones, we utilized T cell receptor sequencing over the course of primary infection and rechallenge. We show that chronic Tcm are a clonally distinct lineage of Tex derived from progenitor exhausted cells, persist long-term in the absence of antigen, and undergo rapid clonal expansion during rechallenge. Finally, we demonstrate that αPD-L1 immune checkpoint blockade selectively expands clones which form Tcm after clearance. Together, these data support the concept that chronically stimulated T cells form bona fide functional memory T cells through an analogous differentiation pathway to acutely stimulated T cells, which may have significant implications for enhancing immune memory to cancer through checkpoint blockade and vaccination.

The pseudokinase Trib1 regulates the transition of exhausted T cells to a KLR+ CD8+ effector state and its deletion improves checkpoint blockade

Project description:CD8+ T cell exhaustion (TEX) impairs the ability of T cells to clear chronic infection or cancer. While TEX are hypofunctional, some TEX retain effector gene signatures, a feature that is associated with expression of KLRs (killer lectin-like receptors). Although KLR+ TEX may improve control of chronic antigen, the signaling molecules regulating this population are poorly understood. Using scRNA-seq, flow cytometry, RNA velocity, and scTCR-seq, we demonstrated that deleting the pseudokinase Trib1 shifted TEX towards CX3CR1+ intermediates (TINT) with robust enrichment of KLR+ TEX (TKLR) via clonal T cell expansion. Adoptive transfer studies demonstrate this shift towards a CD8+ TKLR in Trib1 deficient cells is CD8-intrinsic, while CD4-depletion studies demonstrate that CD4+ T cells are required for optimal viral control in Trib1 conditional knockout mice. Further, Trib1 loss augmented anti-PD-L1 blockade to improve viral clearance. These data identify Trib1 as an important regulator of CD8+ TEX whose targeting enhances the TKLR effector state and improves checkpoint inhibitor therapy.

Tet2 deletion in CD4+ T cells disrupts Th1 lineage commitment in memory cells and enhances T follicular helper cell recall responses

Project description:Following viral clearance, antigen-specific CD4+ T cells contract and form a pool of distinct Th1 and Tfh memory cells that possess unique epigenetic programs, allowing them to rapidly recall their specific effector functions upon rechallenge. DNA methylation programing mediated by the methylcytosine dioxygenase Tet2 contributes to balancing Th1 and Tfh cell differentiation during acute viral infection, however the role of Tet2 in CD4+ T cell memory formation and recall is unclear. Using adoptive transfer models of antigen-specific WT andTet2KO CD4+ T cells, we find that Tet2 is required for full commitment of CD4+ T cells to the Th1 lineage and that in the absence of Tet2, memory cells preferentially recall a Tfh like phenotype with enhanced expansion upon secondary challenge. These findings demonstrate an important role for Tet2 in enforcing lineage commitment and programing proliferation potential, and highlight the potential of targeting epigenetic programing to enhance adaptive immune responses.

Acute CD8+ T cell responses to viral infection harbor Tcf1-dependent stem-like cells that quantitatively yield central memory [ATAC-seq]

Project description:Central memory CD8+ T cells (TCM) can protect from secondary pathogen infection, from chronic infection and cancer as a result of their stem cell-like properties. However, the developmental origin of central memory cells and consequently the basis of their stemness have not been resolved. By monitoring the expression of the transcription factor Tcf1 (Tcf7), which is essential for central memory formation, we identified a small subset of CD8+ T cells present during the acute response to primary infection. These cells lacked cytotoxic effector function, resembled TCM both transcriptionally and epigenetically, had stem cell-like properties, and quantitatively yielded TCM. Stemness effector phase Tcf7+ CD8+ T cells depended on Tcf1 protein expression and on a set of Tcf1-dependent genes associated with adult stem cells. Stemness was thus not acquired subsequent to antigen clearance but was maintained in rare CD8+ T cells responding to acute infection and these cells quantitatively yielded TCM.

Expression data from CD8 T cells from LCMV-Clone13 infected mice after two weeks of control or anti-PD-L1 treatment

Project description:Blocking PD-1 can reinvigorate exhausted CD8 T cells (TEX) and improve control of chronic infections and cancer. One potential advantage of this immunotherapy is durable protection if immune memory can be established. It is unclear, however, whether blocking PD-1 can reprogram TEX into effector (TEFF) or durable memory T cells (TMEM). Here, we found reinvigoration of TEX by PD-L1 blockade caused re-acquisition of some features of TEFF, but minimal memory development. We used microarray analysis to profile exhausted cells from anti-PD-L1 mice after two weeks of treatment to study if PD-L1 blockade caused re-acquistion of some feature of effector or memory cells.

Expression of miRNAs in human ex-vivo CD8+ T cell subsets

Project description:The aim was to assess miRNA expression in 3 human ex-vivo CD8+ T cell subsets which span from antigen inexperienced cells (NaM-CM-/ve) to early memory cells (central memory, Tcm) and later stage memory cells (effector memory, Tem) CD8+ T cells were sorted on a FACS Aria II machine. N = naM-CM-/ve = CD8+, CCR7+, CD45RA+, CD45RO-, Tcm = central memory = CD8+, CCR7+, CD45RA-, CD45RO-,Tem= effector memory = CD8+, CCR7-, CD45RA-, CD45RO+ PBMC were isolated from 3 healthy human donors and sorted by FACS into 3 CD8+ T cell subsets. Total RNA was purified using the miRVANA kit (Ambion)

PD-1+ Tcf1+ CD8+ T cells from established chronic infections can convert into memory cells but keep a stable imprint of persistent stimulation

Project description:The CD8+ T cell response to chronic viral infection is sustained by virus-specific memory-like (TML) CD8+ T cells. TML have recall expansion, self-renewal and differentiation capacity, similar to central memory (TCM) CD8+ T cells that arise in response to acute infection and persist long-term in the absence of antigen. An unresolved question is whether TML can also form memory. Here we showed that TML persisted in antigen free hosts. Further, in response to acute restimulation, TML expanded and differentiated inefficiently, but self-renewal and long-term persistence was not very different from TCM. Progeny of TML resembled conventional memory cells but retained multiple characteristics of chronically stimulated cells. This imprint was accounted for by the overexpression of the transcription factor Tox. Our findings demonstrated that chronically stimulated CD8+ T cells yielded memory that, however, differed from conventional memory formed in response to acute resolved infection.
