Project description:Understanding the mechanisms underlying the acquisition and maintenance of effector function during T cell differentiation is important to unraveling how these processes can be dysregulated in the context of disease and manipulated for therapeutic intervention. Herein, we report the identification of a novel regulator of murine T cell differentiation through the evaluation of a previously unreported activity of the kinase inhibitor, BioE-1197. Specifically, we demonstrate liver kinase B1 (LKB1) mediated activation of salt-inducible kinases (SIKs) epigenetically regulates cytokine recall potential in effector CD8+ and Th1 cells. Evaluation of this phenotype revealed SIK mediated phosphorylation dependent stabilization of histone deacetylase 7 (HDAC7) occurred during late-stage effector differentiation. HDAC7 stabilization increased nuclear HDAC7 levels which correlated with both global and cytokine loci specific reductions in the activating transcription mark, histone 3 lysine 27 acetylation (H3K27Ac). Accordingly, HDAC7 stabilization diminished transcriptional induction of cytokine upon re-stimulation. Inhibition of this pathway during differentiation produced effector T cells epigenetically poised for enhanced cytokine recall. This work identifies a novel target for enhancing effector T cell functionality.

Project description:Asthma is a chronic inflammatory lung disease with intermittent flares predominately mediated through memory T cells. Yet, the identity of long-term memory cells that mediate allergic recall responses are not well defined. In this report, using a mouse model of chronic allergen exposure followed by an allergen-free rest period, we have characterized a sub-population of Th2 cells that secretes IL-9 as an obligate effector cytokine. IL-9-secreting cells have a resident memory T cell phenotype and blocking IL-9 during a recall challenge significantly diminishes airway inflammation and airway hyperreactivity. T cells secrete IL-9 in response to allergen recall and secretion is amplified by IL-33. Using scRNA-seq and scATAC-seq, we define the cellular identity of a distinct populations of T cells with pro-allergic cytokine patterns. Thus, in a recall model of allergic airway inflammation, IL-9 secretion from a multi-cytokine producing cell population is required for an allergen recall response.

Project description:The present study reports an unbiased analysis of the cytotoxic T cell serine-threonine phosphoproteome using high resolution mass spectrometry. Approximately 2,000 phosphorylations were identified in CTLs of which approximately 450 were controlled by TCR signaling. A significantly overrepresented group of molecules identified in the phosphoproteomic screen were transcription activators, co-repressors and chromatin regulators. A focus on the chromatin regulators revealed that CTLs have high expression of the histone deacetylase HDAC7 but continually phosphorylate and export this transcriptional repressor from the nucleus. HDAC7 dephosphorylation results in its nuclear accumulation and suppressed expression of genes encoding key cytokines, cytokine receptors and adhesion molecules that determine CTL function. The screening of the CTL phosphoproteome thus reveals intrinsic pathways of serine-threonine phosphorylation that target chromatin regulators in CTLs and determine the CTL functional program. We used Affymetrix microarray analysis to explore the molecular basis for the role of HDAC7 in CTLs and the impact of GFP-HDAC7 phosphorylation deficient mutant expression on the CTL transcriptional profile. In vitro generated P14 TCR cytotoxic T cells were retrovirally infected with a construct encoding GFP-HDAC7 phosphorylation deficient mutant, sorted in base of GFP expression (GFP positive and GFP negative) and processed for microarray analysis in three biological replicas.

Project description:Title of Publication: Histone Deacetylase 7 Regulates Cell Survival and TCR Signaling in CD4/CD8 Double-Positive Thymocytes Abstract of publicaton: CD4/CD8 double-positive (DP) thymocytes express the transcriptional repressor Histone Deacetylase 7 (HDAC7), a class IIa HDAC that is exported from the cell nucleus after T cell receptor (TCR) engagement. Through signal-dependent nuclear export, class IIa HDACs such as HDAC7 mediate signal-dependent changes in gene expression that are important to developmental fate decisions in multiple tissues. We report that HDAC7 is exported from the cell nucleus during positive selection in thymocytes, and regulates genes mediating the coupling between TCR engagement and downstream events that determine cell survival. Thymocytes lacking HDAC7 are inefficiently positively selected due to a severely shortened lifespan and exhibit a truncated repertoire of TCR J segments. The expression of multiple important mediators and modulators of the response to TCR engagement is altered in HDAC7-deficient thymocytes, resulting in increased tonic MAP kinase activity that contributes to the observed loss of viability. Remarkably, the activity of Protein Kinase D, the kinase that mediates nuclear export of HDAC7 in response to TCR signaling, is also increased in HDAC7-deficient thymocytes, suggesting that HDAC7 nuclear export governs a self-sustaining auto-excitatory loop. These experiments add to the understanding of the life/death decision in thymic T cell development, define a novel function for class IIa HDACs, and point to a novel feed-forward mechanism whereby these molecules regulate their own state and mediate stable developmental transitions. Goal of Microarray experiment: We did these experiments to determine how alteration of the function of HDAC7, a site-specific and signal-dependent repressor of transcription, changes gene expression in CD4/CD8 DP thymocytes. Three biological replicate samples were prepared for each non-wild type mouse strain (Samples 7-18). Six biological replicates were prepared for the wild type strain (Samples 1-6). Total RNA was prepared from isolated CD4/CD8 Double-positive thymocytes and labeled with the Affymetrix Whole-Transcript labeling protocol. Labeled probes were hybridized to one Affymetrix Mouse Gene 1.0ST array each. Data from .cel files were normalized using RMA, in normalization groups representing each of the binary comparisons made. These binary comparisons between sample groups represent gene expression changes due to loss of HDAC7 (samples 1-3 vs. 7-9), transgenic expression of an HDAC7-VP16 fusion protein (samples 4-6 vs. 10-12), positive thymic selection (samples 1-6 vs. samples 11-15), and negative thymic selection (Samples 11-15 vs. samples 16-18).

Project description:Histone deacetylase 7 (HDAC7) is highly expressed in CD4+/CD8+ thymocytes and functions as a signal-dependent repressor of gene transcription during T cell development. In this study, we express HDAC7 mutant proteins in a T cell line and use DNA microarrays to identify transcriptional targets of HDAC7 in T cells. Gene expression changes are compared to differential gene expression profiles associated with positive and negative thymic selection. This analysis reveals that HDAC7 regulates an extensive set of genes that are differentially expressed during both positive and negative thymic selection. Many of these genes play important functional roles in positive and negative selection, primarily via coupling between antigen receptor and downstream signaling events. Keywords: microarray gene expression profiling, comparison of perturbation of HDAC7 gene function with differential expression during thymic selection

Title of manuscript: Nuclear Export of Histone Deacetylase 7 During Thymic Selection Mediates Immune Self-tolerance. abstract of manuscript: Histone Deacetylase 7 (HDAC7) is a TCR signal-dependent regulator of differentiation that is highly expressed in CD4/CD8 double-positive (DP) thymocytes. Here we examine the effect of blocking TCR-dependent nuclear export of HDAC7 during thymic selection, through expression of a signal-resistant mutant of HDAC7 (HDAC7-?P) in thymocytes. We find that HDAC7-?P Transgenic thymocytes exhibit a profound block in negative thymic selection, but can still undergo positive selection, resulting in the escape of autoreactive T cells into the periphery. Gene expression profiling reveals a comprehensive suppression of the negative selection-associated gene expression program in DP thymocytes, associated with a defect in the activation of MAP kinase pathways by TCR signals. The consequence of this block in vivo is a lethal autoimmune syndrome involving the exocrine pancreas and other abdominal organs. These experiments establish a novel molecular model of autoimmunity and cast new light on the relationship between thymic selection and immune self-tolerance. Goal of Microarray experiment: We did these experiments to determine how alteration of the function of HDAC7, a site-specific and signal-dependent repressor of transcription, changes gene expression in CD4/CD8 DP thymocytes.

Project description:Correct B cell identity at each stage of cellular differentiation during B lymphocyte development is critically dependent on a tightly controlled epigenomic landscape. We previously identified HDAC7 as an essential regulator of early B cell development and its absence leads to a drastic block at the pro-B to pre-B cell transition. More recently, we demonstrated that HDAC7 loss in pro-B-ALL in infants associates with a worse prognosis. Here we delineate the molecular mechanisms by which HDAC7 modulates early B cell development. We find that HDAC7 deficiency drives global chromatin de-condensation, histone marks deposition and deregulates other epigenetic regulators and mobile elements. Specifically, the absence of HDAC7 induces TET2 expression, which promotes DNA 5-hydroxymethylation and chromatin de-condensation. HDAC7 deficiency also results in the aberrant expression of microRNAs and LINE-1 transposable elements. These findings shed light on the mechanisms by which HDAC7 loss or misregulation may lead to B cell–based hematological malignancies.
