The role of IFN-I and IL-27 in the expansion of virus-specific CD8+ T cell subtypes during persistent infection

ABSTRACT: Chronic infection and cancer are associated with suppressed T cell responses in the presence of activating antigen. Recent work identified memory-like CD8+ T cells termed follicular cytotoxic T cells (TFC) which sustain T cell responses during persistent infection and are essential for the T-cell proliferative burst following PD1 blockade. Approaches to expand these cells are sought. We show that blockade of interferon type 1 (IFN-I) receptor leads to TFC expansion in an IL-27-and STAT1-dependent manner. IFNAR1 blockade promoted accelerated cell division and retention of TCF1 in virus-specific CD8+ T cells. We found that CD8+ T cell-intrinsic IL-27 signaling safeguards the ability of TCF1-high cells to sustain proliferation and prevents premature cell cycle exit and programmed cell death. Transcriptome analysis revealed an IL-27-regulated gene module controlling survival of activated CD8+ T cells which is enhanced in IFNAR-attenuated conditions. We further demonstrated a cell-intrinsic requirement for the IL-27 target IRF1 in TFC expansion through promoting sustained division. These findings reveal that IL-27 opposes IFN-I to uncouple cell division from effector differentiation, and suggest IL-27 signaling could be exploited to augment self-renewing T cell populations in patients with chronic infections.

RNA-Seq of IL-2-KO follicular CD8 T cells and IL-2-KO follicular CD4 T cells

Project description:Follicular CXCR5+ PD-1+ CD8 T cells (CD8 Tfc) arise in multiple models of systemic autoimmunity yet their functional contribution to disease remains in debate. Here we define the follicular localization and functional interactions of CD8 Tfc with B cells during autoimmune disease. The absence of functional T regulatory cells in autoimmunity allows for CD8 Tfc development that then expands with lymphoproliferation. CD8 Tfc are identifiable within the lymph nodes and spleen during systemic autoimmunity, but not during tissue-restricted autoimmune disease. Autoimmune CD8 Tfc cells are polyfunctional, producing helper cytokines IL-21, IL-4, and IFNγ while maintaining cytolytic proteins CD107a, granzyme B, and TNF. During autoimmune disease, IL-2-KO CD8 T cells infiltrate the B cell follicle and germinal center, including the dark zone, to induce AID in vitro in naïve B cells via IL-4 secretion. CD8 Tfc represent a unique CD8 T cell population with a diverse effector cytokine repertoire that can contribute to pathogenic autoimmune B cell response.

PD-1 blockade-unresponsive human tumor-infiltrating CD8+ T cells are marked by loss of CD28 expression and rescued by IL-15

Project description:Blockade of programmed death-1 (PD-1) reinvigorates exhausted CD8+ T cells, resulting in tumor regression in cancer patients. Recently, reinvigoration of exhausted CD8+ T cells following PD-1 blockade was shown to be CD28-dependent in mouse models. Herein, we examined the role of CD28 in anti-PD-1-induced human T-cell reinvigoration using tumor-infiltrating CD8+ T cells (CD8+ TILs) obtained from non-small cell lung cancer patients. Single cell analysis demonstrated a distinct expression pattern of CD28 between mouse and human CD8+ TILs. Furthermore, we found that human CD28+CD8+, but not CD28–CD8+ TILs, responded to PD-1 blockade irrespective of B7/CD28 blockade, indicating that CD28 co-stimulation in human CD8+ TILs is dispensable for PD-1 blockade-induced reinvigoration, and loss of CD28 expression rather serve as a marker of anti-PD-1-unresponsive CD8+ TILs. Transcriptionally and phenotypically, PD-1 blockade-unresponsive human CD28–PD-1+CD8+ TILs exhibited characteristics of terminally exhausted CD8+ T cells with low TCF1 expression. Notably, CD28–PD-1+CD8+ TILs had preserved machinery to respond to IL-15, and IL-15 treatment enhanced proliferation of CD28–PD-1+CD8+ TILs as well as CD28+PD-1+CD8+ TILs. Taken together, we demonstrate loss of CD28 expression as a marker of PD-1 blockade-unresponsive human CD8+ TILs with TCF1– signature and provide mechanistic insights into combining IL-15 with anti-PD-1.

Adenovirus Serotype 5 Vectors Trigger IL-27-Dependent Inhibitory CD4+ T Cell Responses

Project description:Viral vectors are attractive vaccine platforms that elicit robust innate and adaptive immune responses; however, viral vector vaccine candidates vary greatly in their ability to induce protective immunity. Ad5 vectors elicit robust CD8+ T cell responses but typically characterized by an exhausted phenotype. The mechanisms by which Ad5 vectors induce dysfunctional CD8+ T cells have not been fully elucidated. Here we demonstrate that Ad5 vectors, but not Ad26 vectors, elicit exhausted antigen-specific IL-10+PD1+ CD4+ T cells with a dysfunctional transcriptional profile, and these cells effectively suppress CD8+ T cells responses in vivo. Induction of inhibitory CD4+ T cells by Ad5 vectors was associated with increased IL-27 expression, and IL-27 blockade improved CD4+ T cell polyfunctionality. Together our data highlight a novel role for IL-27 in regulating responses to viral vector vaccines. Splenic CD45.2+ OT-II TCR-Tg CD4 T cells from CD45.1+ B6 mice immunized with Ad5-OVA or Ad26-OVA were purified by FACS on day 10 post-immunization

Distinct SIV-specific lymphoid tissue CD8 T cells exhibit simultaneous effector and stem-like profiles and associate with limited SIV persistence

Project description:HIV cure efforts are increasingly focused on harnessing CD8 T cell functions; however, a deeper understanding of CD8 T cells promoting HIV control is necessary to properly inform therapeutic approaches. Here, we identified a novel TOX-expressing CD8 T cell population associated with control of SIV infection in lymphoid tissue of rhesus macaques defined as an antigen-responsive TCF1+ CD39+ subset expressing high levels of TOX and inhibitory receptors but lower levels of canonical cytolytic molecules such as granzyme B, granzyme A, and perforin. Transcriptional analysis of SIV-specific CD8 T cells, as well as proteomic analysis of purified CD8 T cell subsets, revealed these TCF1+ CD39+ cells as an intermediate effector population retaining stem-like features while maintaining a lineage relationship with terminal effector cells. TCF1+ CD39+ CD8 T cells expressed higher levels of CXCR5 than terminally differentiated cells, were found at higher frequency in follicular micro-environments, and were preferentially located in the proximity of SIV-RNA+ cells both in lymph node T cell zone and B cell follicles. Importantly, their frequency was strongly associated with reduced plasma viremia and lower reservoir size. Finally, we confirmed the presence of a highly similar TOX-enriched TCF1+ CD39+ cell population in lymph node biopsies from ART-naïve and ART-treated people living with HIV. Collectively, these data identify a unique population of lymphoid CD8 T cells possessing both stem-like and effector properties that contribute to limiting HIV/SIV persistence.

Tumor context dictates reliance on Tcf1 for response to immunotherapy

Project description:Stem-like CD8 + T cells are regulated by the transcription factor TCF1 and are key players in the response to immune checkpoint blockade (ICB). However, recent findings indicate that reliance on TCF1 + CD8 + stem-like T cells for ICB efficacy may not be equal across patients or tumor contexts. Here, we uncovered that TCF1-deficient CD8 + T cells showed defective priming in the tumor-draining lymph node of mice bearing poorly immunogenic tumors and that TCF1 regulates optimal T cell responsiveness to low TCR triggering. Importantly, we found that TCF1 was dispensable for therapy response in settings where ICB expanded intra-tumoral transitory effector-like cells. Conversely, TCF1 was required for ICB response in tumors that failed to expand cytotoxic effectors and accumulated Tox + dysfunctional T cells. In the absence of TCF1, dysfunctional T cells became destabilized and shared features with CD8 + T cells found in patients that fail ICB. Our study highlights a role for TCF1 in the early stages of the anti-tumor CD8 + T cell response with important implications for guiding optimal therapeutic interventions in cancers with low frequency of TCF1 + CD8 + T cells and low neoantigen levels.

Gene expression of early memory and effector precursor CD8 T cells generated by differential TCR signaling strength

Project description:Asymmetric cell division (ACD) and the strength of initial T cell receptor (TCR) signaling are both implied to contribute to the establishment of cellular heterogeneity and CD8 T cell effector and memory differentiation. However, on a single cell level it remained unclear whether ACD generates progeny of different fates and whether the strength of TCR signaling affects this mechanism. Therefore, we developed experimental systems allowing monitoring the fate of single daughter cell progenies derived from an ACD either induced by weak or strong TCR stimulation by in vitro live imaging. We used the combinatorial expression of TCF1 and CD62L as markers indicating fate specification a few days after activation and analyzed the transcriptional profiles of in vitro generated CD62L+TCF1+ and CD62L-TCF1- cells derived from either antibody-induced (AB) activation or from gp33 (high affinity) or C6 (low affinity) peptide stimulation and compared them to in vivo generated effector and memory cells, respectively. Therefore, we sorted CD62L+TCF1+ and CD62L-TCF1- cells on day 6 post activation, followed by bulk RNA sequencing and found that CD62L+TCF1+ cells transcriptionally resembled in vivo generated memory cells, whereas CD62L-TCF1- cells were similar to in vivo generated effector cells.

CXCR5+ follicular cytotoxic T cells control viral infection in B cell follicles

Project description:In response to infection, antigen-specific CD8+ T cells are primed in the T cell zone of secondary lymphoid organs and differentiate into cytotoxic effector T (TC) cells. Concurrently, CD4+ T cells differentiate into follicular helper T (TFH) cells that localize to B cell follicles and promote protective antibody responses. During unresolved infections, however, some viruses including human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or Epsteinâ??Barr virus (EBV) escape immune control and persist in TFH cells and B cells, respectively. Exclusion of Tc cells from B cell follicles is thought to be a major mechanism of immune evasion. New strategies are therefore needed to eradicate infected cells in follicles for a permanent cure. Using mouse infection models and human samples, we here identify a specialized group of TC cells expressing the chemokine receptor CXCR5 that can selectively enter B cell follicles and eradicate infected TFH and B cells. We demonstrate that differentiation of these cells, which we term follicular cytotoxic T (TFC) cells, requires the transcription factors Bcl6, E2A and Tcf1, whereas the transcriptional regulators Blimp1, Id3 and Id2 inhibit their development. We demonstrate that Blimp1 and E2A directly regulate Cxcr5 expression, and together with Bcl6 and Tcf1 form a transcriptional circuit that guides the TFC differentiation. The identification of a follicular subset of TC cells has far reaching implications for developing better strategies for the control of infections that target B cells and TFH cells and for the eradication of B cell derived malignancies. There is no associated input. The E2A Bio-ChIP-seq was performed with total thymocytes from Tcf3Bio/Bio Rosa26BirA/BirA mice

Genome-wide maps of Tcf1 binding locations in splenic CD8 T cells.

Project description:We mapped genome-wide Tcf1 binding locations in mature CD8 T cells to identify its direct target genes. This experiment aims to identify genome-wide binding locations for Tcf1 transcription factor in mature CD8 T cells. The CD8 T cells were isolated from wild-type C57BL/6 mice by negative selection. The chromatin fragments were immunoprecipitated by an anti-Tcf1 antiserum or control rabbit serum (without immunization). The immunoprecipitated fragments were then used in high throughput sequencing. Data processing then revealed >3000 high-confidence Tcf1 binding peaks across the CD8 T cell genome. One important finding is that Tcf1 binds directly to Cd4 gene silencer, and thus explain its important role in suppressing the CD4 coreceptor in mature CD8 T cells.

PI3Kd coordinates transcriptional, epigenetic and metabolic changes to promote effector CD8+ T cells differentiation at the expense of memory.

Project description:Patients with Activated-PI3Kd Syndrome (APDS) present with sinopulmonary infections, lymphadenopathy and CMV and/or EBV viremia, yet why patients fail to clear certain viral infections remains incompletely understood. Using patient samples and a mouse model (Pik3cdE1020K/+ mice), we demonstrate that, upon activation, Pik3cdE1020K/+ CD8+ T cells exhibit exaggerated features of short-lived effectors both in vitro and post-viral infection, including increased Fas-mediated apoptosis due to sustained FoxO1 phosphorylation and derepression of FasL. Activated Pik3cdE1020K/+ CD8+ T cells displayed enhanced mTORC1 and c-Myc signatures, accompanied by metabolic perturbations linked to an accelerated effector program. Conversely, Pik3cdE1020K/+ CD8+ T cells failed to sustain expression of proteins critical for maintenance of long-lived memory cells, including TCF1, and mounted inadequate memory responses in vivo. Strikingly, activated Pik3cdE1020K/+ CD8+ T cells exhibit altered transcriptional and epigenetic circuits characterized by a pronounced IL-2/STAT5 signature associated with heightened IL-2 responses that prevented differentiation to memory-like cells in the presence of IL-15. Our data position PI3Kd as a central hub integrating multiple signaling nodes that promote terminal CD8+ T cell effector differentiation at the expense of memory and long-lived T cell responses.
