Deciphering and predicting CD4+ T cell immunodominance of Influenza virus hemagglutinin


ABSTRACT: The importance of CD4+ T helper (Th) cells is well appreciated in view of their essential role in the elicitation of antibody and cytotoxic T cell responses. However, the mechanisms that determine the selection of immunodominant epitopes within complex protein antigens remain elusive. Here, we used ex vivo stimulation of memory T cells and screening of naïve and memory T cell libraries, combined with T cell cloning and TCR sequencing, to dissect the human naïve and memory CD4+ T cell repertoire against the influenza pandemic H1 hemagglutinin (H1-HA). We found that naïve CD4+ T cells have a broad repertoire, being able to recognize naturally processed as well as cryptic peptides spanning the whole H1-HA sequence. In contrast, memory Th cells were primarily directed against just a few immunodominant peptides that were readily detected by mass spectrometry-based MHC-II peptidomics and predicted by structural accessibility analysis. Collectively, these findings reveal the presence of a broad repertoire of naïve T cells specific for cryptic H1-HA peptides, and demonstrate that antigen processing represents a major constraint determining immunodominance.
