Project description:Three major phenotypically and functionally distinct invariant Natural Killer T (iNKT) cell subsets (iNKT1, iNKT17 and iNKT2), each with propensity to traffic to different tissues and to secrete different cytokines upon activation, have been defined. These fate assignments can be conferred upon iNKT cells during development in the thymus, but the cues that direct these decisions remain unclear. Here, we show that T cell antigen receptor (TCR) signal strength governs the development of iNKT cell subsets in the thymus, with high signaling strength necessary for iNKT2 and iNKT17 development. Alteration of TCR diversity and/or signaling dramatically diminished iNKT2 and iNKT17 cell subset development in a cell intrinsic manner. Decreased TCR signaling affected the persistence of Egr2 expression and the upregulation of PLZF both in vivo and in vitro. Genome-wide chromatin accessibility analysis revealed subset-specific activity of regulatory elements associated with unique signatures of transcription factor binding sites. NFAT and Egr binding motifs were found preferentially enriched in chromatin regulatory regions specifically accessible in iNKT2 cells that were lost in iNKT2 cells that had developed with reduced TCR signaling. Altogether, these data suggest a model of iNKT cell subset development where variable TCR signaling induces changes in chromatin accessibility at NFAT and Egr binding sites which exerts a determinative influence on the dynamic of gene enhancer accessibility that affects the developmental fate of iNKT cells.

Project description:Decreased cytotoxic T cells and TCR clonality in organ transplant recipients with squamous cell carcinoma

Project description:Multiple tumours from the same patient were analysed for copy number alterations to assess tumour clonality. Seventy-four tumours corresponding to 37 patients were stratified into four groups based on the anatomic location of the multiple breast cancers (ipsilateral or bilateral) and time interval between the diagnoses (synchronous or metachronous). Ipsilateral was defined as tumours occurring in the same breast while bilateral was defined as the occurrence of tumours in both breasts. Metachronicity was defined as a time interval greater than six months between the diagnoses of the first and second tumours, while synchronicity specified that the two tumours occurred concurrently (BM: bilateral-metachronous; BS: bilateral-synchronous; IM: ipsilateral-metachronous; IS: ipsilateral-synchronous).

Project description:The murine thymus produces discrete γδ T cell subsets making either IFN-γ or IL-17, but the role of the TCR in this developmental process remains controversial. Here we generated a non-transgenic and polyclonal model of reduced TCR expression and signal strength selectively on γδ T cells. Mice haploinsufficient for both CD3γ and CD3δ (CD3DH) showed normal αβ thymocyte subsets but specific defects in γδ T cell development, namely impaired differentiation of IL-17-producing embryonic Vγ6+ (but not adult Vγ4+) γδ T cells and a marked depletion of IFN-γ-producing CD122+ NK1.1+ (Vγ1-biased) γδ T cells throughout life. As result, adult CD3DH mice showed defective peripheral IFN-γ responses and were resistant to experimental cerebral malaria. Thus, strong TCR signaling is required within specific developmental windows with distinct Vγ usage and differential cytokine production by effector γδ T cell subsets. We investigated the transcriptional changes associated with reduced TCRγδ signaling in the CD3DH model. Transcriptome-wide analysis of FACS-purified CD3DH or WT γδ thymocytes from E18 or 6-week was carried looking for patterns of gene expression during ontogeny

Project description:Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) is an autoimmune mediated disease that culminates in the targeted destruction of insulin producing β cells. CD4 responses in non-obese diabetic mice are dominated by InsB9-23 specificity, and mutation of the key TCR contact residue within the epitope prevents diabetes development. However, it is not clear how insulin self-antigen controls the selection of autoimmune and T regulatory cells. Here we demonstrate that mutation of insulin epitope results in escape of highly pathogenic T cells. We observe an increase in antigen reactivity, clonality and pathogenicity of insulin specific T cells that develop in the absence of cognate antigen. Using single TCR system, we demonstrate that Treg development is greatly diminished in mice with Y16A mutant epitope. Collectively, these results suggest that the tyrosine residue at position 16 is necessary to constrain TCR reactivity for InsB9-23 by both limiting the development of pathogenic T cells and supporting the selection of regulatory T cells.

Project description:T-cell landscape differences between cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC) tumors in immune competent (SCC in IC) and immunocompromised organ transplant recipients (TSCC in OTR) are unclear. We developed an analytical method to define tumor infiltrating lymphocyte (TIL) phenotype in cSCC from immune competent and immune suppressed patients using single-cell TCR sequencing and gene expression data. TSCC exhibits reduced proportions of cytotoxic and naïve TILs and similar numbers of regulatory TILs. Fewer, more heterogeneous TCR clonotypes are observed in TIL from OTR. Most TCR sequences for top ten clonotypes correspond to known antigens, while 24% correspond to putative neoantigens. OTR show increased cSCC events over 12 months possibly due to reduced cytotoxic T-cells. Our novel method of barcoding CD8+ T-cells is the first providing gene expression and TCR sequences in cSCC. Knowledge regarding putative antigens recognized by TCRs with phenotypic function of T-cells bearing those TCRs could facilitate personalized cSCC treatments.

Project description:Immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) has led to durable clinical responses in multiple cancer types; however, biomarkers that identify which patients are most likely to respond to ICB are not well defined. Many putative biomarkers developed from a small number of samples often fail to maintain their predictive status in larger validation cohorts. We show across multiple human malignancies and syngeneic murine tumor models that neither pre-treatment T cell receptor (TCR) clonality nor changes in clonality after ICB correlate with response. Dissection of tumor infiltrating lymphocytes pre- and post-ICB by paired single-cell RNA sequencing and single-cell TCR sequencing reveals conserved and distinct transcriptomic features in expanded TCR clonotypes between anti-PD1 responder and non-responder murine tumor models. Overall, our results indicate a productive anti-tumor response is agnostic of TCR clonal expansion. Further, we used single-cell transcriptomics to develop a CD8+ T cell specific gene signature for a productive anti-tumor response and show the response signature to be associated with clinical outcomes to nivolumab monotherapy in CheckMate-067, a phase 3 clinical trial in metastatic melanoma. These results highlight the value of leveraging single-cell assays to dissect heterogeneous tumors and T cell subsets and define cell-type specific transcriptomic biomarkers of ICB response.

Project description:Multiple tumours from the same patient were analysed for DNA methylation to assess tumour clonality. Seventy-four tumours corresponding to 37 patients were stratified into four groups based on the anatomic location of the multiple breast cancers (ipsilateral or bilateral) and time interval between the diagnoses (synchronous or metachronous). Ipsilateral was defined as tumours occurring in the same breast while bilateral was defined as the occurrence of tumours in both breasts. Metachronicity was defined as a time interval greater than six months between the diagnoses of the first and second tumours, while synchronicity specified that the two tumours occurred concurrently (BM: bilateral-metachronous; BS: bilateral-synchronous; IM: ipsilateral-metachronous; IS: ipsilateral-synchronous). A subset of 16 samples was randomly selected to represent each clinical group with four samples corresponding to two patients per group and analysed for DNA methylation using Illumina Infinium Human MethylationEPIC BeadChips.

Project description:Fibrosis is the final path of nearly every form of chronic disease and accounts for up to 45% of all deaths in the developed world. However, antifibrotic therapies that target fibrogenic cells are lacking. We tested whether specific immunization against ADAM12 can elicit an antigen-specific cytotoxic T cell response to ameliorate liver fibrosis. In this study, we performed T cell receptor (TCR) alpha- and beta-chain repertoire sequencing on fibrotic livers to further characterize the T cell response and to detect potential TCR clonotypes. We observed TCR clonality of liver-infiltrating T cells from v-A12- and control-vaccinated mice with minimal overlap to v-CTRL mice in two α-chain sequences. However, the vast majority of expanded clones from v-A12-vaccinated animals showed a unique sequence pattern. Moreover, there was no overlap in the β-chain sequences between v-A12-vaccinated and control mice, suggesting a vaccination-induced expansion of antigen-specific TCR clonotypes.
