Project description:Cryopreserved human PBMCs from six donors were stimulated with anti-CD3/CD28 beads in the presence or absence of 100ng/ml IL-23 for 22 hours. RNA samples were assessed for consistency with a Bioanalyzer (Agilent) and quantified by a Nanodrop® ND 1000 Spectrophotometer (Nanodrop Technologies, USA). Expression array data was quantile normalised, detection above background statistical testing performed, comparison between activated un-stimulated versus activated IL-23 stimulated conditions performed as a paired test using the Illumina Custom differential expression algorithm (all implemented in Illumina BeadStudio GeneExpression Module v3.2). Two sample groups were compared, each with 6 biological replicates. Group 1 was stimulated with CD3CD28 antibody coated beads as a control group for 22hours. Group 2 was stimulated as the control group and treated with IL-23 100ng/ml for the same time period. Keywords: Cytokine Treatment

Project description:Gene expression profiling of in vitro differentiated murine Th cell subsets. Flow cytometrically sorted naive Th cells (CD4+ CD44- Foxp3-) were polyclonally stimulated in vitro for 3 days using 4 µg/ml plate-bound antibody to CD3 (145-2C11) and 2 µg/ml soluble antibody to CD28 (PV-1). Th0 cells were cultured in the absence of exogenous cytokines. Th17 cells were differentiated with 50 ng/ml IL-6 plus 0.5 ng/ml TGF-β. Tr-1 cells were differentiated with 100 ng/ml IL-27 plus 0.5 ng/ml TGF-β.
Project description:Human naïve CD4 T cells were purified from healthy volunteers' blood and were differentiated into induced Tregs in vitro by culturing for 5 days in the presence of anti-CD3 and CD28 antibodies (2 µg/ml each), IL-2 (100 units/ml) and TGF-β1 (5 ng/ml) for 5 days, then in presence of anti-CD3 and CD28 antibodies for 2 days. Human iTregs were harvested on day 7 post differentiation, then treated with either vehicle or IL-21 (100 ng/ml) in serum-free RPMI media for 18 hours.

Project description:To broadly assess which pathways FRCs regulate in CD8+ T cells, we sorted CD8+ T cells for RNA-seq following activation in whole splenocyte mixtures via soluble anti-CD3/CD28 for 48 hours (Stim), activated with anti-CD3/CD28 in the presence of Nos2–/– FRCs (FRC) or activated with anti-CD3/CD28 plus 100 ng/ml recombinant IL-6 (IL-6). Here we demonstrate that FRC-derived signals, including IL-6, act in concert with TCR signaling and co-stimulation to promote the expression of MYC and HIF-1-dependent glycolytic genes and vital pro-survival genes (encoding BCL-2 family members, inhibitors of apoptosis [IAPs] members and Cflar) in activated CD8+ T cells.
Project description:To broadly assess which pathways FRCs regulate in CD8+ T cells, we sorted CD8+ T cells for ATAC-seq following activation in whole splenocyte mixtures via soluble anti-CD3/CD28 (0.25μg/ml) for 48 hours (Stim), activated with anti-CD3/CD28 in the presence of Nos2–/– FRCs (FRC) or activated with anti-CD3/CD28 plus 100 ng/ml recombinant IL-6 (IL-6). Here we demonstrate that FRC-derived signals, including IL-6, act in concert with TCR signaling and co-stimulation to remodel chromatin and render essential transcription factor binding motifs accessible in activated CD8+ T cells. Signals from FRCs led to increased binding regions for MYC, HIF-1α and HIF-1β, which are known to promote metabolic pathways following T cell activation. Additionally, FRC-derived signals promoted activity of transcription factors that regulate survival and memory programs in T lymphocytes such as BATF and BACH2.
Project description:We report that the microRNA (miR)-31 confers CD8 T cell sensitivity to type I interferon (IFN) stimulation following CD3/CD28 engagement. Method: miR31 WT and KO CD8 T cells were stimulated with anti-CD3/CD28 beads for two days, then maintained in 10ng/mL IL-2 for a further 5 days. CD8 T cells were then stimulated with 20ng/mL IFN-beta for 0, 4, or 18h. Total RNA was isolated at each time point and sequenced. Results: Prior to IFN-beta stimulation, miR-31 KO CD8 T cells had a slightly increased effector program (cytotoxic granzymes) and decreased inhibitory program (Mt1/Maf). Stimulation with IFN-beta further enhanced this difference increasing a number of granzymes, Prf1 and Spp1 whilst also decreasing inhibitory genes (Mt1, Mt2, Maf, Ptger2). Conclusion: This study shows that miR-31 may lead to decreased effector function and increased inhibitory programs in CD8 T cells during chronic viral infections, in particular due to continued type I interferon stimulation.
