Project description:Elite controllers (ECs), a unique group of people with HIV (PWH), exhibit remarkable control of viral replication in the absence of antiretroviral therapy. In this study, we comprehensively characterized the NK cell repertoire in ECs after long-term viral control. Phenotypic profiling of NK cells revealed profound differences compared with other PWH, but marked similarities to uninfected individuals, with a distinctive prevalence of NKG2C+CD57+ memory-like NK cells. Functional analyses indicated that ECs had limited production of functional molecules upon NK stimulation and consequently reduced natural cytotoxicity against non-HIV target cells. Importantly, ECs showed an exceptional ability to kill primary HIV-infected cells by the antibody-dependent cell cytotoxicity adaptive mechanism, which was achieved by a specific memory-like NK population expressing CD16, NKG2A, NKG2C, CD57, and CXCR3. In-depth single-cell RNA-seq unveiled a unique transcriptional signature in these NK cells linked to increased cell metabolism, migration, chemotaxis, effector functions, cytokine secretion, and antiviral response. Our findings underscore a pivotal role of NK cells in the immune control of HIV and identify specific NK cells as emerging targets for immunotherapies.

Project description:Epigenetic modifiers are promising targets to improve therapies in patients with cancer. Targeting the methyltransferase DOT1L with small molecule inhibitors has shown promising effects on the control of cancerous cells. However, these small molecules are given systemically and may have a profound impact on non-cancerous cells, such as the cells of the immune system. In the innate immune system, natural killer (NK) cells are a critical subset of cells with important roles in controlling transformed cells and tumour inflammation. Previous studies have shown that NK cells can convert into ILC1-like cells in a TGFβ-rich tumour microenvironment (TME). Additionally, cancer patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) have increased frequencies of ILC1 cells in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs), which show reduced production of proinflammatory cytokines and decreased granzyme B production. In this study, we identify DOT1L as a critical regulator of NK cell activation and lineage integrity. We generated NKp46-conditional DOT1L knockout mice (DOT1L.Ncr1) and observed increased frequencies of ILC1-like cells (CD49b+ CD49a+, CD62L-) and reduced frequencies of NK cells (CD49b+ CD49a-, CD62L+) in these mice. While the absence of DOT1L increases the sensitivity to TGFβ, the increased expression of CD49a is highly intrinsic and only partially dependent on TGFβ signalling. Functionally, the increased presence of ILC1-like cells in the tumour microenvironment of DOT1L.Ncr1 mice leads to decreased tumour control. Our assessment of the transcriptional program reveals alternative uses of transcription factors, such as the AP-1 family or SMAD2/3, to maintain NK cell activation and lineage integrity. Our findings provide evidence for a previously unknown role of DOT1L in NK cell biology, and demonstrate the importance of maintaining NK cell lineage integrity for effective tumour control. These findings have significant implications for the development of improved therapies for cancer or other NK cell-lineage dependent malignancies.

Project description:Here we show that Zika virus infection induces memory like NK cells that express CD27. This subset shared transcriptional changes with memory CD8 T cells, stem cells and stem like T cells. These NK cells with memory and stemness features which we term NK memory stem cells (SCMNK) demonstrated greater antiviral potential. Transcriptional data of SCMNK and non-memory NK cells is presented.

Project description:NK cells are lymphocytes that provide a first defense against viral infections and cancer. They act (i) cytotoxic by killing virus-infected and tumorigenic cells and (ii) immune regulatory by releasing cytokines and chemokines. These innate immune cells are commonly further classified as CD56bright and CD56dim NK cells. Former studies confirmed immune regulatory CD56bright NK cells as progenitors of cytotoxic CD56dim NK cells. CD57 was previously described as T cell marker for senescence and terminal differentiation. Recent studies detected CD57+ and CD57- NK cells among the CD56dim NK cell population and suggested a fully mature developmental status for CD57+ NK cells. The recent NK cell maturation model includes CD34+ hematopoietic stem cells (HSC), which develop into CD56bright NK cells, later into CD56dimCD57- and finally into terminally maturated CD56dimCD57+ (1) (2) (3). The molecular mechanisms of human NK cell differentiation and maturation remain unknown to this date. We performed for the first time a proteomic analysis of these distinct developmental stages of human primary NK cells, isolated from overall 10 healthy human blood donors. CD56bright NK cells versusCD56dim and CD56dimCD57- versus CD56dimCD57+ NK cells were analyzed by using quantitative peptide sequencing, which revealed individual protein signatures (3400 proteins) of these different NK cell developmental stages. Notably, our data support the current NK cell differentiation model by highlighting both strong distinctions between CD56dim/bright NK cells and close relationships between CD57+/- NK cells on the proteomic level. Among the most prominent and conserved regulated proteins, we detected myosin IIa, Calvasculin and Calcyclin with very similar expression patterns. We investigated their sub-cellular localization and observed specific recruitment- and accumulation-events at the NK cell immunological synapse (NKIS) after NK activation.

Project description:Glioblastoma stem cells (GSCs) fate is controlled by environmental cues, among which cytokines play a crucial role. The transforming growth factor β (TGFβ) family signaling pathways controls GSCs. On one hand, TGFβ promotes cell proliferation in GBM, it induces the expression of platelet-derived growth factor-B (PDGFB). Moreover, TGFβ, via its signaling mediators Smad2/3, induces the expression of the cytokine leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) and Sox4, which in turn enhances the expression of the stem cell transcription factor Sox2; this increases the self-renewal capacity of the GSCs and their stemness characteristics, and enhances the GSC tumor-initiating potential. On the other hand, Bone morphogenic proteins (BMPs) are known to promote GSC differentiation towards the astrocytic phenotype. To further understand which genes are regulated by TGFβ and BMP7 in GSCs we performed a microarray in the Affymetrix HTA2 platform in three different glioblastoma cell line, U2987, and two patient-derived glioblastoma stem cells, U3031MG and U3034MG, in the presence or absence of 5 ng/ml of TGFβ or 30 ng/ml BMP7 for 24 h, three biological replicates per condition.

Project description:Somatic STAT5B gain-of-function mutations have been frequently found in patients with T- and NK-cell neoplasms. STAT5BN642H represents the most frequently occuring STAT5B mutation. To investigate the molecular mechanism of STAT5BN642H-driven NK-cell leukemia, we performed RNA-Seq of liver derived FACS-sorted diseased N642HNK/NK and aged non-diseased control (Cre neg, GFPNK/NK), STAT5BNK/NK, N642HNK/NK NK cells.
