Essential and non-overlapping IL-2Rα-dependent signaling for thymic development and peripheral homeostasis of regulatory T cells

Project description:IL-2R signaling is essential for regulatory T cell (Treg) function. However, the precise contribution for IL-2 during Treg thymic development, peripheral homeostasis, and lineage stability remains unclear. Here we show that IL-2R signaling is essential for thymic Tregs at an early step for expansion/survival and a later step for functional maturation. Using selective deletion of CD25 in peripheral Tregs, we also find that IL-2R signaling was absolutely essential for their persistence whereas Treg lineage stability was IL-2-independent. CD25 knockout peripheral Tregs showed increased apoptosis, oxidative stress, signs of mitochondrial dysfunction, and reduced transcription of key enzymes of lipid and cholesterol biosynthetic pathways. A divergent IL-2 transcriptional signature was noted for thymic Tregs versus peripheral Tregs. These data indicate that IL-2R signaling in the thymus and the periphery leads to distinctive effects on Treg function, where peripheral Treg survival depends on a non-conventional mechanism of metabolic regulation.

Essential and non-overlapping IL-2R?-dependent processes for thymic development and peripheral homeostasis of regulatory T cells.

Project description:IL-2R signaling is essential for regulatory T cell (Treg) function. However, the precise contribution of IL-2 during Treg thymic development, peripheral homeostasis and lineage stability remains unclear. Here we show that IL-2R signaling is required by thymic Tregs at an early step for expansion and survival, and a later step for functional maturation. Using inducible, conditional deletion of CD25 in peripheral Tregs, we also find that IL-2R signaling is indispensable for Treg homeostasis, whereas Treg lineage stability is largely IL-2-independent. CD25 knockout peripheral Tregs have increased apoptosis, oxidative stress, signs of mitochondrial dysfunction, and reduced transcription of key enzymes of lipid and cholesterol biosynthetic pathways. A divergent IL-2R transcriptional signature is noted for thymic Tregs versus peripheral Tregs. These data indicate that IL-2R signaling in the thymus and the periphery leads to distinctive effects on Treg function, while peripheral Treg survival depends on a non-conventional mechanism of metabolic regulation.

Non-overlapping functions for Notch1 and Notch3 during murine steady state thymic lymphopoiesis.

Project description:Notch1 signaling is absolutely essential for steady-state thymic lymphopoiesis, but the role of other Notch receptors, and their potential overlap with the function of Notch1, remains unclear. Here we show that like Notch1, Notch3 is differentially expressed by progenitor thymocytes, peaking at the DN3 progenitor stage. Using mice carrying a gene-trapped allele, we show that thymic cellularity is slightly reduced in the absence of Notch3, although progression through the defined sequence of TCR-αβ development is normal, as are NKT and TCRγδ cell production. The absence of a profound effect from Notch3 deletion is not explained by residual function of the gene-trapped allele, since insertion mapping suggests that the targeted allele would not encode functional signaling domains. We also show that although Notch1 and Notch3 are co-expressed on some early intrathymic progenitors, the relatively mild phenotype seen after Notch3 deletion does not result from the compensatory function of Notch1, nor does Notch3 function explain the likewise mild phenotype seen after conditional (intrathymic) deletion of Notch1. Our studies indicate that Notch1 and Notch3 carry out non-overlapping functions during thymocyte differentiation, and that while Notch1 is absolutely required early in the lymphopoietic process, neither receptor is essential at later stages.

Ssb1 and Ssb2 have essential and overlapping functions in adult stem cell homeostasis - granulocyte-macrophage progenitor data.

Project description:The single-stranded DNA binding proteins SSB1 and SSB2 are crucial regulators of the DNA damage response, however the overlapping functions of these related proteins is incompletely understood. We generated mice where both Ssb1 and Ssb2 were constitutively or conditionally deleted. Constitutive Ssb1/Ssb2 double knockout (DKO) caused early embryonic lethality, while conditional Ssb1/Ssb2 double knockout (cDKO) in adult mice resulted in acute lethality due to bone marrow failure and intestinal atrophy featured by stem and progenitor cell depletion. cDKO cells exhibited increased replication stress, R-loop accumulation, genome wide double strand breaks and cytosolic single-stranded DNA. Transcriptional profiling of cDKO cells revealed activation of p53 DNA damage and interferon responses. Hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells in cDKO mice showed enforced cell cycling, with subsequent apoptotic cell death. Collectively, these results demonstrate that Ssb1 and Ssb2 have compensatory functions in maintaining genomic stability and are collectively necessary for adult stem cell homeostasis.
