Project description:The relative contribution of induced and natural Foxp3+ regulatory T cells (iTreg and nTreg cells, respectively) to the maintenance of tolerance is unknown. We examined their respective roles by in vivo adoptive transfer immunotherapy of newborn Foxp3-deficient BALB/c mice. Survival, weight gain, tissue infiltration, T cell activation, and the concentration of proinflammatory cytokines were used as outcome measurements. Treatment with iTreg cells alone was not successful. While effective in preventing death, treatment with nTreg cells alone was associated with chronic inflammation and autoimmunity. Outcomes markedly improved when conventional T (Tconv) cells were transferred together with the nTreg cells, where 10% of the peripheral Treg cell pool was derived by in-situ conversion. This enhancement depended upon the capacity of Tconv cells to express Foxp3. The gene expression profile of in vivo derived iTreg cells was similar to the established nTreg cell genetic signature. These results identify iTreg cells as an essential regulatory subset that supplements tolerance maintained by nTreg cells. Purified cells sorted by flow cytometry from 4-8 treated mice(pooled EGFP+ Thy1.1+ iTreg cells with that of EGFP+ Thy1.1+ nTreg cells sorted from the spleens and lymph nodes of treated mice) were used to generate total RNA for each iTreg and nTreg array set, which was labeled and hybridized to Affymetrix 430 2.0 GeneChips in accordance to the manufacturer’s protocol. Three sets of arrays were performed, and the results were averaged. Both iTreg and nTreg array sets were compared to a) naïve CD4+EGFP– Tconv cells from Foxp3EGFP mice and b) in vitro derived iTreg cells 72 hours after Foxp3 induction, generated earlier. The subset of probe sets whose expression increased or decreased by twofold or more relative to Tconv cells as a common standard was identified and used for further analysis.

Project description:Induced Treg (iTreg) cells are essential for tolerance and can be used therapeutically, yet their stability in vivo and mechanisms of suppression are unresolved. Here, we used a treatment model of colitis to examine the role of autologous IL-10 in iTreg cell function. Mice treated with IL-10+/+ iTreg cells in combination with IL-10–/– natural Treg (nTreg) cells survived and gained weight, even though iTreg cells were numerically disadvantaged and comprised just ~20% of all Treg cells in treated mice. Notably, ~85% of the transferred iTreg cells lost Foxp3 expression (ex-iTreg) but retained a portion of the iTreg transcriptome which failed to limit their pathogenic potential. The TCR repertoires of iTreg and ex-iTreg cells exhibited almost no overlap, which indicates that the two populations are clonally unrelated and maintained by different selective pressures. These data demonstrate a potent and critical role for iTreg cell produced IL-10 that can supplant the IL-10 produced by nTreg cells and compensate for the inherent instability of the iTreg population. BALB/c Rag1-/- mice were treated with 500,00 WT nTreg cells plus 500,000 WT in-vitro-derived iTreg cells. After 125 days cells were sorted by flow cytometry from spleens and mesenteric lymph nodes from 14 treated mice. EGFP+ Thy1.1+ iTreg cells, EGFP+ Thy1.1– nTreg cells, and EGFP–Thy1.1+ ex-iTreg cells were pooled and used to generate total RNA for each iTreg, nTreg, and ex-iTreg array set, which was labeled and hybridized to Affymetrix 430 2.0 GeneChips in accordance to the manufacturer’s protocol.

Project description:The gene expression profile of peripheral Foxp3+ natural regulatory T cells isolated from Foxp3/EGFP bicistronic mice was compared to that of in vitro-induced regulatory T cells and to CD4+ conventional (Foxp3-) T cells. The role of the regulatory T cell transcription factor Foxp3 in shaping the transcriptosomes of natural and induced regulatory T cells was analyzed using mice expressing a mutant FOXP3-EGFP fusion protein (Foxp3deltaEGFP). We used gene expression microarrays to examine the transcriptional programs of natural and induced regulatory T cells and the function of Foxp3 in organizing the transcriptosomes of the respective cell type Experiment Overall Design: Conventional T cells and natural and induced regulatory T cells were derived from Foxp3/EGFP bicistronic mice and analyzed for their gene expression profile. Conventional T cells, regulatory T cell precursors (CD4+Foxp3deltaEGFP+) and induced regulatory T cell precursors (CD4+Foxp3deltaEGFP+) cells were deriv ed from Foxp3deltaEGFP mice

Project description:Foxp3+ regulatory T cells (Treg), playing a crucial role in the maintenance of immune tolerance and prevention of autoimmune diseases, consist of thymus-derived naturally-occurring CD4+Foxp3+ Treg cells (nTreg) and another CD4+Foxp3+ Treg cells that can be induced ex vivo with TGF-β (iTreg). Although both Treg subsets share similar phenotypes and functional characteristics, they also have potential biologic differences on their biology. However, the role of iTreg in regulating B cells of lupus disease mice remains unclear so far. The lupus-prone New Zealand Mixed 2328 (NZM2328) mouse, a recombinant inbred strain that originated from the crosses among New Zealand Black and New Zealand White mice and their progenies also develops Lupus Glomerulonephritis. NZM2328 mice develop autoantibodies and glomerulonephritis with female predominance similarly to humans with systemic lupus erythematosus. The lupus disease onset is usually around 3-4 months age. In our experiments, iTreg induced from NZM2328 lupus-prone mice (10-12 weeks old) and nTreg sorted from the thymus of 10-12 weeks old NZM2328 lupus-prone mice were adoptively transferred into old NZM2328 mice (>4 months age) with established lupus for 32 days. Totally, there were three groups including NZM2328 mice as model (receive PBS), NZM2328 mice received iTreg, and NZM2328 received nTreg. The serum IgG and IgM autoantibody were detected by autoantibodies microarrays (UTSW Medical Center Autoantigen Array) at days 0, 14, 32 after cell transfer. Our results demonstrated that adoptive transfer of iTreg had a superior effect than nTreg subset on suppressing lupus B cell responses in vivo.

Project description:The CD4+ regulatory T (Treg) cell lineage comprises thymus-derived (t)Treg cells and peripherally induced (p)Treg cells. As a model for Treg cells, studies employ TGF-β-induced (i)Treg cells generated from CD4+ conventional T (Tconv) cells in vitro. Here, we describe the relationship of iTreg cells to tTreg and Tconv cells. Proteomic analysis revealed that iTreg, tTreg and Tconv cell populations each have a unique protein expression pattern. iTreg cells had very limited overlap in protein expression with tTreg cells, regardless of cell activation status and instead shared signaling and metabolic proteins with Tconv cells. tTreg cells had a uniquely modest response to CD3/CD28-mediated stimulation. As a benchmark, we used a previously defined proteomic signature that sets ex vivo naïve and effector phenotype Treg cells apart from Tconv cells and includes unique Treg cell properties (Cuadrado et al., Immunity, 2018). This Treg cell core signature was largely absent in iTreg cells. We also used a proteomic signature that distinguishes ex vivo effector Treg cells from Tconv cells and naïve Treg cells. This effector Treg cell signature was partially present in iTreg cells. In conclusion, iTreg cells are distinct from tTreg cells and share limited features with ex vivo Treg cells at the proteomic level.

Project description:In order to identify if there is any role of Foxp1 in the DNA demethylation of Foxp3 enhancer regions of induced Treg (iTreg) cells we performed bisulfite sequence analysis of Foxp1 deficient in vitro generated iTreg cells and compared their methylation status after 7 days of iTreg induction, at which point Foxp1 is deleted in the iTreg cells derived from Foxp3YFPCreFoxp1f/f (KO) mice.

Project description:Recent data have shown that Hypermethylated in cancer 1 (HIC1) is an important contributor to iTreg cell development and function. Using affinity-purification and tandem mass spectrometry we systematically characterized the HIC-1 interactome in human iTreg cells. On the basis of these data, we have shown that HIC1 is a part of FOXP3-RUNX1-CBFβ protein complex that regulates Treg signature genes and is indispensable for the suppressive function of FOXP3+ regulatory T cells. SRM was used to validate HIC1 interactors
