A microRNA-directed program of cytotoxic CD8+ T cell differentiation

ABSTRACT: Acquisition of effector properties is a key step in the generation of cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs). Here we show that inflammatory signals regulate Dicer expression in CTL, and that deletion or depletion of Dicer in mouse or human activated CD8+ T cells causes upregulation of perforin, granzyme and effector cytokines. Genome-wide analysis of miRNA changes induced by exposure of differentiating CTLs to IL-2 and inflammatory signals identifies miR-139 and miR-150 as components of a miRNA network that controls perforin, eomesodermin (Eomes) and IL-2Ra expression in differentiating CTLs and whose activity is modulated by IL-2, inflammation and antigenic stimulation. Overall our data show that strong IL-2R and inflammatory signals act through Dicer and miRNAs to control the cytolytic program and other aspects of effector CTL differentiation.

Gene expression profiles of human CD8+ T cells: IL-12 and IFN-a polarized in vitro stimulated and ex vivo sorted CCR7hi and CXCR3hi populations

Project description:CD8+ cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) play a major role in defense against intracellular pathogens, and their functions are specified by antigen recognition and innate cytokines. While effector CTLs eliminate the infection, a small population of memory cells are retained that yields more rapid and robust response upon re-infection. Antigen presenting cells secrete an array of innate cytokines including IL-12 and IFN-α after recognition of pathogens. Both IL-12 and IFN-α have been shown to act as the third signal regulating the development of CTLs. We have shown that these two cytokines have a non-redundant effect in generation of human effector CTL. IL-12 alone is sufficient for effector CTL genesis marked by IFN-γ and TNF-α production, as well as increased cytolytic activity. Even in the presence of IFN-α, IL-12 programs CTLs that express the chemokine receptor CXCR3 and effector cytokines. Using microarray analysis we have investigated how IL-12 and IFN-α differentially regulate the genetic programming pathways that give rise to effector CTLs among multiple human donors. We have also analyzed the gene expression patterns of cells sorted from healthy human peripheral blood that display surface markers of effector memory CTL (designated as ex vivo) samples. 5 healthy human donor samples were used for the in vitro cultures. For each donor the CFSE labeled cells (CD8+CD45RA+) were cultured in the presence of neutralized, IL-12, IFN-a, and IL-12+IFN-a conditions and plate-bound anti-CD3+anti-CD28 for 3.5 days. Total RNA from CFSEhi (Undiv) and CFSElo (Div) sorted cells were used for Illumina Bead Array. 4 healthy human donor samples were used for the ex vivo samples. Total RNA was collected from FACS sorted CD8+CCR7hiCXCR3lo and CD8+CCR7loCXCR3hi cells without any stimulation.

The alarmin interleukin-33 drives protective antiviral CD8+ T cell responses

Project description:Pathogen-associated molecular patterns decisively influence antiviral immune responses, whereas the contribution of endogenous signals of tissue damage, also known as “damage-associated molecular patterns” or “alarmins”, remains ill-defined. We show that interleukin-33 (IL-33), an alarmin released from necrotic cells, is necessary for potent CD8+ T cell (CTL) responses to replicating, prototypic RNA and DNA viruses in mice. IL-33 signaled through its receptor on activated CTLs, enhanced clonal expansion in a MyD88-dependent, CTL-intrinsic fashion, determined polyfunctional effector cell differentiation and was necessary for virus control. Moreover, recombinant IL-33 augmented vaccine-induced CTL responses. Radio-resistant cells of the splenic T cell zone produced IL-33, and efficient CTL responses required IL-33 from radio-resistant cells but not from hematopoietic cells. Thus, alarmin release by radio-resistant cells orchestrates protective antiviral CTL responses. 2 groups (wt vs. ST-/- P14 cells), 3 replicates per group.

Transcriptional basis of CD4 T cel help for memory CD8 T cell formation

Project description:CD4+ T-cell help is required for the generation of CD8+ cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) memory. We here reveal how “help” signals delivered during priming impact memory differentiation of CTLs, as informed by genome-wide analyses. “Help” signals promoted the IL-15-dependent maintenance of central memory (TCM) cells. However, they had a much larger impact on the generation of effector memory (TEM) cells and their gene expression program . CD4+ T-cell help created TEM cells that produced Granzyme B and IFNg after antigen-independent recall with IL-12 and IL-18. Furthermore, “helped” memory CTLs expressed the effector program characteristic of “helped” primary CTLs upon recall with MHC class I-restricted antigen only, due to both epigenetic imprinting and sustained mRNA expression of relevant genes . Thus, CD4+ T-cell help delivered during priming creates CD8+ TEM cells with innate and help-independent recall capacities.

Super-killer CTLs are generated by single gene deletion of Bach2

Project description:Bach2 codes for a transcriptional regulator exerting major influences on T cell mediated immune regulation. Effector CTLs derived from in vitro activation of murine CD8+ T cells showed increased proliferative and cytolytic capacity in the absence of BACH2. Before activation, BACH2-deficient CD8+ T cells had a higher abundance of memory and reduced abundance of naïve cells compared to wild-type. CTLs derived from central memory T cells were more potently cytotoxic than those derived from naïve T cells, but even within separated subsets, BACH2-deficiency conferred a cytotoxic advantage. Immunofluorescence and electron microscopy revealed larger granules in BACH2-deficient compared to wild-type CTLs, and proteomic analysis showed an increase in granule content, including perforin and granzymes. Thus, the enhanced cytotoxicity observed in effector CTLs lacking BACH2 arises not only from differences in their initial differentiation state but also inherent production of enlarged cytolytic granules. These results demonstrate how a single gene deletion can produce a CTL super-killer.

Whole-transcriptome quantitative analysis of WT versus Ikzf3-/- CD4+ T cells cultured in Th1-polarizing or Tfh-polarizing conditions

Project description:Effective immunity to viruses such as influenza and SARS-CoV-2 requires the generation of CD4+ T cell subsets that coordinate complementary aspects of the immune response. These include T follicular helper (TFH) and T helper 1 (TH1) cells, which promote humoral and cell-mediated helper responses, respectively. A third population, CD4+ cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CD4-CTLs) facilitates clearance of infection via mechanisms normally associated with CD8+ T cells, including perforin-mediated destruction of infected cells. Here, we identify the transcription factor Aiolos as a reciprocal regulator of TFH and CD4-CTL responses. We demonstrate that Aiolos deficiency compromises TFH differentiation and antibody production during influenza infection. Conversely, we find that CD4+ T cells acquire a cytotoxic-like program in the absence of Aiolos, including increased expression of the CTL-associated transcription factors Eomes and Blimp-1. We further show that while Aiolos positively regulates the TFH transcriptional regulators Zfp831, Tcf-1 and Bcl-6, it also directly represses expression of IL-2Ra and IL-2/STAT5-driven expression of the cytotoxic gene program. Thus, our findings identify Aiolos as a pivotal regulator of TFH and CD4-CTL differentiation and highlight its potential as a therapeutic target for the manipulation of CD4+ T cell humoral and cytotoxic responses.
