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.

Project description:The origin and function of human double negative (DN) TCR-alpha/beta T cells is unknown. They are thought to contribute to the pathogenesis of systemic lupus erythematosus because they expand and accumulate in inflamed organs. Here we provide evidence that human TCR-alpha/beta CD4- CD8- DN T cells derive exclusively from activated CD8+ T cells. Freshly isolated TCR-alpha/beta DN T cells display a distinct gene expression and cytokine production profile. DN cells isolated from peripheral blood as well as DN cells derived in vitro from CD8+ T cells, produce a defined array of pro-inflammatory mediators that includes IL-1, IL-17, IFN-gama, CXCL3, and CXCL2. These results indicate that, upon activation, CD8+ T cells have the capacity to acquire a distinct phenotype that grants them inflammatory capacity. TCR-alpha-beta+ CD25- T cells from healthy human individuals were sorted into CD4+, CD8+, and CD4-CD8- T cells. Cell lysis and RNA extraction was performed immediately. RNA from each cell subset was pooled.

Project description:The incubation of a 10,000 member PNA-encoded peptide library with cells over-expressing the alpha(v)beta(3) and alpha(v)beta(5) integrins (D54) or CCR6 (HEK293T-CCR6) followed by microarray analysis allowed detailed information on the interaction between peptide-ligands and cell surface receptors to be extracted. This allowed the identification of new cell specific ligands for alpha(v)beta(3) and alpha(v)beta(5) integrins and CCR6 and offers an approach to ligand discovery that allows the comparative, competitive and simultaneous analysis of different cell types for the identification of differences in surface-receptor ligands and/or receptor expression between cell types.

Project description:In order to characterize the T cell receptor (TCR) repertoire of DQ2.5-hor-3-specific T cells, we performed high-throughput DNA sequencing of rearranged TCR-α and TCR-β genes of the single HLA-DQ2.5:DQ2.5-hor-3- tetramer binding CD4+ T cells isolated from biopsies of celiac disease patients. We also sequenced the TCR of the T-cell clones (TCCs) that were generated by cloning by limited dilution and antigen-free expansion of HLA-DQ2.5:DQ2.5-hor-3-tetramer binding CD4+ T cells from biopsies of celiac disease patients.

Project description:Local administration of IFN-α-producing proliferating myeloid cells (IFN-α-iPSC-pMCs) inhibited the tumor growth not only at the treatment site but also at the distant site (left). T cell receptor (TCR)-β chain repertoire and complementarity determining region 3 (CDR3) gene sequence analyses of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) showed marked enrichment of T cells with identical TCR-β chains in bilateral tumor tissues.

Project description:Relative H3K27me3 enrichment, assessed by ChIP-on-chip, in two TLX positive and two TLX negative T Acute Lymphoblastique Leukemia (T-ALL) samples. Acute lymphoblastic leukemias (ALLs) are characterized by multi-step oncogenic processes leading to cell differentiation arrest and proliferation. Specific abrogation of maturation blockage constitutes a promising therapeutic option in cancer, which requires precise understanding of the underlying molecular mechanisms. We show that the cortical thymic maturation arrest in T-lineage ALL that over-express TLX1 or TLX3 is due to binding of TLX1/TLX3 to ETS1, leading to repression of the T cell receptor (TCR) alpha enhanceosome activity and blocked TCR-Jalpha rearrangement. TLX1/TLX3 abrogation or enforced TCRalpha/beta expression leads to TCRalpha rearrangement and apoptosis. Importantly, the auto-extinction of clones carrying TCRalpha-driven TLX1 expression supports TLX 'addiction' in TLX-positive leukemias and provides further rationale for targeted therapy based on disruption of TLX1/TLX3.

Project description:<p>Diversity and size of the antigen-specific T cell receptor (TCR) repertoire are two critical determinants for successful control of chronic infection. Varicella zoster virus (VZV) that establishes latency during childhood is able to escape control mechanisms, in particular with increasing age. We examined the TCR diversity of VZV-specific CD4 T cells in individuals older than 50 years by studying three identical twin pairs and three unrelated individuals before and after vaccination with live attenuated VZV. While all individuals had a small number of dominant T cell clones, the breadth of the VZV-specific repertoire differed markedly among different individuals. A genetic influence was seen for the sharing of individual TCR sequences from antigen-specific cells, but not for repertoire richness or the selection of clonal dominance. VZV vaccination favored the expansion of infrequent VZV-specific TCRs including those from naïve T cells while leaving dominant T cell clones mostly unaffected.</p>
