Project description:Development of T cells is controlled by the signal strength of the TCR. The scaffold protein Kinase D-interacting substrate of 220 kDa (Kidins220) binds to the TCR; however, its role in T cell development was unknown. Here, we show that T cell-specific Kidins220 knock-out (T-KO) mice have strongly reduced invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cell numbers and modest decreases in conventional T cells. Enhanced apoptosis due to increased TCR signaling in T-KO iNKT thymocytes of developmental stage 2 and 3 shows that Kidins220 downregulates TCR signaling at these stages. scRNAseq indicated that the transcription factor Aiolos is downregulated in Kidins220-deficient iNKT cells. Analysis of an Aiolos KO demonstrated that Aiolos is a downstream effector of Kidins220 during iNKT cell development. In the periphery, T-KO iNKT cells show reduced TCR signaling upon stimulation with α-galactosylceramide, suggesting that Kidins220 promotes TCR signaling in peripheral iNKT cells. Thus, Kidins220 reduces or promotes signaling dependent on the iNKT cell developmental stage.

Project description:Protein arginine methylation is a post-translational modification catalyzed by protein arginine methyltransferase (PRMT). To elucidate the role of PRMT5 in T cells, we generated T-cell specific PRMT5-deficient mice (Prmt5 flox/d Cd4-Cre mice) and found a severe loss of thymic iNKT cells as well as a reduced number in peripheral CD4+ and CD8+ T cells. As iNKT cells were significantly decreased in the stage 1, 2 and 3 of developmental stages, RNA-seq was performed using stage 1 iNKT cells of control and PRMT5-deficient mice. This transcriptome analysis will provide mechanistic insight into how PRMT5 contributes to thymic iNKT cell development.

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:The maintenance of tissue homeostasis is critically dependent on the function of tissue-resident lymphocytes, including lipid-reactive invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cells. iNKT cells have unique properties according to their tissues of residency, but if and how the tissue environment shapes their antigen specificity remains unknown. By analysing iNKT cells from tissues of mice and humans we demonstrate that their T cell receptor (TCR) repertoire is highly diverse and is distinct for iNKT cells resident in individual tissues resulting in differential lipid-antigen recognition. Within peripheral tissues, the TCR repertoire of iNKT cell recent thymic emigrants is different from that of mature cells, indicating that the iNKT population is shaped after their arrival to the tissues. Accordingly, in homeostatic conditions the repertoire of iNKT cells is modulated by tissue-specific signals that control iNKT cell activation and proliferation resulting in differential clonal expansion found for cells resident in various organs. Moreover, the iNKT cell TCR repertoire changes in response to lipid immunization and is shaped by age and by environmental changes. Thus, post-thymic modification of the iNKT cell TCR repertoire underpins the distinct antigen specificity of iNKT cells residing in peripheral tissues
