Project description:Transcriptome analyses of memory CDKN2A-/- CD8 T lymphocytes expressing an active form of the transcription factor Stat5. CDKN2A-/- CD8 T lymphocytes were activated by anti-CD3/CD28. After 40h, an active form of Stat5 was introduced in activated cells. Culture was continued for another 48h to induce their differentiation in effector T cells. These 88h activated T cells were injected in congeneic hosts and recovered 15 days later from the host spleen and lymph nodes: CDKN2A-/- Stat5ca -d15: 2 replicates– S46, S47. This study is a complement of the samples previously deposited under accession number GSE41819. Those two new samples are compared to previously deposited: - activated CD8 T lymphocytes transduced to express Stat5ca and transferred in congenic hosts: o S11 (GSM663446); o S12 (GSM663445); o S13 (GSM663444); o S14 (GSM663439). and - naive peripheral CD8 T lymphocytes : o S33 (GSM663441); o S34 (GSM663435); o S35 (GSM663449); o S36 (GSM663447).

Project description:Transcriptome analyses of naive, effector and memory CD8 TCRP1A lymphocytes expressing or not an active form of the transcription factor Stat5. TCRP1A CD8 T lymphocytes were activated by their cognate Ag for 72h to induce their differentiation in effector T cells (TCRP1A eTL 72h: 4 replicates S1, S2, S3, S4). In some samples, an active form of Stat5 was introduced (TCRP1A Stat5ca eTL 72h: 2 replicates S9, S10). These 72h activated T cells were either purified and analyzed directly (samples mentioned above) or injected in congeneic hosts and recovered more than 20 days later from the host spleen and lymph nodes: TCRP1A eTL >d20: 2 replicates– S30, S32; TCRP1A Stat5ca eTL >d20: 4 replicates S11, S12, S13, S14). Naive TCRP1A CD8 T lymphocytes (TCRP1A-naive: 4 replicates S33, S34, S35, S36) are included as controls. TCRP1A CD8 T lymphocytes were activated by anti-CD3/CD28. After 24h, an active form of Stat5 was introduced in activated cells. Culture was continued for another 48h to induce their differentiation in effector T cells. These 72h activated T cells were either directly injected in congeneic hosts and recovered more than 14 days later from the host spleen and lymph nodes: T-BetKO Stat5ca >d14: 3 replicates S39, S40, S41.
Project description:CD8 T cells (TCs) expressing active STAT5 (STAT5CA) transcription factors were found to be superior to un-manipulated counterparts in their long-term persistence, capacity to infiltrate a tumor, thrive in its microenvironment and induce its regression. STAT5CA induced sustained expression of genes controlling tissue homing, cytolytic granule composition, Tc-1-associated effector molecules (GranzymeB+/IFNg+/TNFa+/CCL3+ but IL-2-) and potential for secondary responses. Sustained expression of both T-Bet and Eomes transcription factors was correlated with STAT5 binding to their corresponding genes by ChIPSeq analyses. Additionally, STAT5CA-expressing CD8 TCs demonstrated reduced IL-6R/TGFbRII expression and dampened IL-6 and TGFb1 signaling. Altogether, concerted STAT5/T-Bet/Eomes regulation controls homing, recall responses and resistance to Tc-17 polarization in CD8 TCs. TCRP1A CD8 T lymphocytes were activated by their cognate P1A Ag. After 24h, an active form of Stat5 (STAT5CA) was introduced in activated cells. Culture was continued for another 48h to induce their differentiation in effector T cells. These activated T cells were injected in congeneic hosts and recovered 70 days later from hosts' spleen and lymph nodes: TCRP1A eTC-STAT5CA.

Project description:STAT5 and IL-7 signaling are thought to control B-lymphopoiesis by regulating key transcription factor genes and activating VH gene segments at the Igh locus. Using conditional mutagenesis, we demonstrate that transgenic Bcl2 expression rescued the development of Stat5-deleted pro-B cells by compensating for the loss of Mcl-1. Ebf1 and Pax5 expression as well as VH recombination were normal in Bcl2-rescued pro-B cells lacking STAT5 or IL-7Ra. In agreement with this finding, STAT5-expressing pro-B cells contained little or no active chromatin at most VH genes. In contrast, Igk rearrangements were increased in STAT5- or IL-7Ra-deficient pro-B cells, consistent with direct binding of STAT5 to the intronic iEk enhancer in wild-type pro-B cells. Hence, STAT5 and IL-7 signaling control cell survival and suppress premature Igk recombination in early B-lymphopoiesis. comparison of wt vs Rag2-/- pro-B cells
Project description:Using mouse model, we show that CD8 tumor-infiltrating T lymphocytes (TIL) include two major resident T cells subpopulations expressing either CD49a or CD103 integrin, with a subset co-expressing CD103 and Tcf-1 transcription factor. Tumor vaccination induces a decrease in the percentage of Tcf-1+CD103+ TRM-like cells and an expansion of CD49a+ TRM displaying an effector/exhausted profile. Tcf-1+CD103+ TRM-cell density increases in tumors from vaccinated transgenic mice constitutively expressing active TGF-beta-type-2-receptor and wild-type mice challenged with neutralizing anti-IL-12 antibodies. Stimulation of mouse and human CD8 T cells with recombinant (r)TGF-beta combined with anti-CD3 antibodies results in increase in the proportion of CD103+ and Tcf-1+CD103+ CD8 T cells, whereas rIL-12 induces decrease in CD103 expression on CD8 T cells.
Project description:The maintenance of immune homeostasis requires regulatory T cells (Tregs). Given their intrinsic self-reactivity, Tregs must stably maintain a suppressive phenotype to avoid autoimmunity. We report that impaired expression of the transcription factor (TF) Helios by FoxP3+ CD4 and Qa-1-restricted CD8 Tregs results in defective regulatory activity and autoimmunity in mice. Helios-deficient Treg develop an unstable phenotype during inflammatory responses characterized by reduced FoxP3 expression and increased effector cytokine expression secondary to diminished activation of the STAT5 pathway. CD8 Treg also require Helios-dependent STAT5 activation for survival and to prevent terminal T cell differentiation. Definition of Helios as a key transcription factor that stabilizes regulatory T-cells in the face of inflammatory responses provides a genetic explanation for a core property of regulatory T-cells. We used microarrays to detail the global programs of gene expression by CD8 Treg (CD44+CD122+Ly49+) and conventional memory type of CD8 cells (CD44+CD122+Ly49-).
