Distinct epigenomic landscapes underlie tissue-specific memory T cell differentiation

ABSTRACT: The memory CD8+ T cell pool contains phenotypically and transcriptionally heterogeneous subsets with specialized functions and recirculation patterns. Here, we examined the epigenetic landscape of CD8+ T cells isolated from seven non-lymphoid organs across four distinct infection models, alongside their circulating T cell counterparts. Using single-cell transposase-accessible chromatin sequencing (scATAC-seq), we found that tissue-resident memory T (TRM) cells and circulating memory T (TCIRC) cells develop along distinct epigenetic trajectories. We identified organ-specific transcriptional regulators of TRM cell development, including FOSB, FOS, FOSL1, and BACH2, and defined an epigenetic signature common to TRM cells across organs. Finally, we found that although terminal TEX cells share accessible regulatory elements with TRM cells, they are defined by TEX-specific epigenetic features absent from TRM cells. Together, this comprehensive data resource shows that TRM cell development is accompanied by dynamic transcriptome alterations and chromatin accessibility changes that direct tissue-adapted and functionally distinct T cell states.

A unique epigenomic landscape defines CD8+ tissue-resident memory T cells

Project description:Memory T cells provide rapid and long-term protection against infection and tumors. The memory CD8+ T cell repertoire contains phenotypically and transcriptionally heterogeneous subsets with specialized functions and recirculation patterns. While these T cell populations have been well characterized in terms of differentiation potential and function, the epigenetic changes underlying memory T cell fate determination and tissue-residency remain largely unexplored. Here, we examined the single-cell chromatin landscape of CD8+ T cells over the course of acute viral infection. We reveal an early bifurcation of memory precursors displaying distinct chromatin accessibility and define epigenetic trajectories that lead to a circulating (TCIRC) or tissue-resident memory T (TRM) cell fate. While TRM cells displayed a conserved epigenetic signature across organs, we demonstrate that these cells exhibit tissue-specific signatures and identify transcription factors that regulate TRM cell populations in a site-specific manner. Moreover, we demonstrate that TRM cells and exhausted T (TEX) cells are distinct epigenetic lineages that are distinguishable early in their differentiation. Together, these findings show that TRM cell development is accompanied by dynamic alterations in chromatin accessibility that direct a unique transcriptional program resulting in a tissue-adapted and functionally distinct T cell state.

Molecular signature of brain resident memory CD8+ T cells

Project description:Tissue resident memory (Trm) represent a newly described memory T cell population. We have previously characterized a population of Trm that persists within the brain following acute virus infection. Although capable of providing marked protection against a subsequent local challenge, brain Trm do not undergo recall expansion following dissociation from the tissue. Furthermore, these Trm do not depend on the same survival factors as the circulating memory T cell pool as assessed either in vivo or in vitro. To gain greater insight into this population of cells we compared the gene-expression profiles of Trm isolated from the brain to circulating memory T cells isolated from the spleen following an acute virus infection. Trm displayed altered expression of genes involved in chemotaxis, expressed a distinct set of transcription factors and overexpressed several inhibitory receptors. Cumulatively, these data indicates that Trm are a distinct memory T cell population disconnected from the circulating memory T cell pool and displaying a unique molecular signature which likely results in optimal survival and function within their local environment. 13 samples were analyzed: 5 replicates of memory OT-I CD8+.CD103- T cells isolated from the spleen of mice on day 20 p.i. with VSV-OVA. 5 replicates of memory OT-I CD8+CD103+ T cells isolated from the brain of mice on day 20 p.i. with VSV-OVA; and 3 replicates of memory OT-I.CD8+ CD103- T cells isolated from the brain of mice on day 20 p.i. with VSV-OVA

Tissue-resident memory CD8+ T cells possess unique transcriptional, epigenetic and functional adaptations to different tissue environments [CAPvsColl RNA-seq]

Project description:CD8+ memory T cells are critical components of protective immunity to intracellular pathogens and tumors. While many memory CD8+ T cells recirculate throughout the body, others remain lodged in tissues and guard common sites of pathogen entry. Contributions of the specific tissue environment to tissue-resident memory T cell (Trm) differentiation and homeostasis have been implicated but are not well understood. Here, we define the diversity of gene expression and genome accessibility by mouse CD8+ Trm populations in distinct organs and identify molecules critical for Trm generated in response to acute viral infection. We find that CD8+ TRM across different tissues possess both shared and tissue-specific transcriptional and epigenetic signatures. Notably, Trm in the intestine and salivary gland express TGFb-induced genes and are maintained by ongoing TGFb signaling while those in the fat, kidney, and liver are not. By constructing transcriptional-regulatory networks for each Trm population, we identify the repressor Hic1 as a critical regulator of Trm differentiation, particularly for Trm of the small intestine. This study provides a framework for understanding how Trm adapt to distinct tissue environments and identifies tissue-specific transcriptional regulators that mediate these adaptations, informing strategies to enhance protective memory responses at the sites most vulnerable to infection.

Transcriptional control of influenza-specific CD4+ tissue-resident memory T cell generation

Project description:Tissue-resident memory T cells (TRM) are a non-circulating subset of memory that are maintained at sites of pathogen entry and mediate optimal protection against reinfection. Lung TRM can be generated in response to respiratory infection or vaccination, however, the molecular pathways involved in CD4+TRM establishment have not been defined. Here, we performed transcriptional profiling of influenza-specific lung CD4+TRM following influenza infection to identify pathways implicated in CD4+TRM generation and homeostasis. Lung CD4+TRM displayed a unique transcriptional profile distinct from spleen memory, including up-regulation of a gene network induced by the transcription factor IRF4, a known regulator of effector T cell differentiation.

Dynamic equilibrium of lung Trm dictates waning immunity after IAV infection

Project description:Lung resident memory (Trm) CD8 T cells induced by influenza A virus (IAV), are pivotal for providing heterosubtypic immunity, but are not maintained long term, causing gradual loss of protection. This contrasts sharply with long-term maintenance of Trm induced by localized infections of the skin and other tissues. Here we show that the decline in lung Trm is determined by an imbalance between apoptosis and lung recruitment/conversion to Trm of circulating memory cells. At the cellular level, circulating effector memory (Tem) rather than central memory (Tcm) cells are the precursors for conversion to lung Trm. Time-dependent changes in expression of genes critical for Trm differentiation together with enrichment of Tcm diminish the capacity of circulating memory CD8 T cells to form Trm, explaining why IAV-induced Trm are not stably maintained over time. Importantly, systemic booster immunization, through increasing the number of circulating Tem cells, induces an increase in lung Trm pool, providing a new rational for future IAV vaccines.
