Project description:Lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV) is the prototypic arenavirus and a natural mouse pathogen. LCMV Armstrong, an acutely resolved strain, and LCMV Clone 13, a mutant that establishes chronic infection, have provided contrasting infection models that continue to inform the fundamental biology of T cell differentiation, regulation of exhaustion, and response to checkpoint blockade. Here, we report the isolation and characterization of LCMV Minnesota (LCMV-MN), which was naturally transmitted to laboratory mice upon cohousing with pet shop mice and shares 80-95% amino acid homology with previously characterized LCMV strains. Infection of laboratory mice with purified LCMV-MN resulted in viral persistence that was intermediate between LCMV Armstrong and Clone 13, with widely disseminated viral replication and viremia that was controlled within 15-30 days, unless CD4 T cells were depleted prior to infection. LCMV-MN responding CD8+ T cells biased differentiation towards the recently described PD1+ CXCR5+ Tim-3lo stem-like CD8+ T cell population (also referred to as T exhausted progenitors, Tpex) that effectuates responses to PD-1 blockade checkpoint inhibition, a therapy that rejuvenates responses against chronic infections and cancer. This subset resembled previously characterized PD1+ TCF1+ stem-like CD8+ T cells by transcriptional, phenotypic, and functional assays, yet was atypically abundant. LCMV-MN may provide a tool to better understand the breadth of immune responses in different settings of chronic antigen stimulation as well as the ontogeny of T exhausted progenitors and the regulation of responsiveness to PD-1 blockade.

Project description:CD8 T cells normally differentiate from resting naïve T cells into function effector and then memory CD8 T cells following acute infections. During chronic viral infections, however, virus-specific CD8 T cells often become exhausted. We used microarrays to examine the gene expression differences between naive, effector, memory and exhausted virus-specific CD8 T cells following lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus infection. Experiment Overall Design: Three or four independent samples were sorted by flow cytometry for each cell type (naive, effector, memory and exhausted) virus-specific CD8 T cells. RNA was extracted and hybridized to Affymetrix microarrays.

Project description:Persistent Ag induces a dysfunctional CD8 T cell state known as "exhaustion" characterized by PD-1 expression. Nevertheless, exhausted CD8 T cells retain functionality through continued differentiation of progenitor into effector cells. However, it remains ill-defined how CD8 T cell effector responses are sustained in situ. In this study, we show using the mouse chronic lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus infection model that CX3CR1+ CD8 T cells contain a T-bet-dependent TIM3-PD-1lo subpopulation that is distinct from the TIM3+CX3CR1+PD-1+ proliferative effector subset. The TIM3-CX3CR1+ cells are quiescent and express a low but significant level of the transcription factor TCF-1, demonstrating similarity to TCF-1hi progenitor CD8 T cells. Furthermore, following the resolution of lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus viremia, a substantial proportion of TCF-1+ memory-like CD8 T cells show evidence of CX3CR1 expression during the chronic phase of the infection. Our results suggest a subset of the CX3CR1+ exhausted population demonstrates progenitor-like features that support the generation of the CX3CR1+ effector pool from the TCF-1hi progenitors and contribute to the memory-like pool following the resolution of viremia.

Project description:Fresh human breast tumor tissue was dissociated into single cells and viably frozen. Patient samples were annotated as having an ""exhausted"" or ""non-exhausted"" immune environment based on CyTOF characterization of T cell phenotypes (Wagner et al, Cell 2019). 14 samples (7 exhausted, 7 non-exhausted) were selected for scRNA-seq (without prior cell type enrichment) with the goal to compare the two immune environment types and to comprehensively characterize exhaustion-associated features of the tumor microenvironment.

Project description:Exhausted T cells express multiple co-inhibitory molecules that impair their function and limit immunity to chronic viral infection. Defining novel markers of exhaustion is important both for identifying and potentially reversing T cell exhaustion. Herein, we show that the ectonucleotidse CD39 is a marker of exhausted CD8+ T cells. CD8+ T cells specific for HCV or HIV express high levels of CD39, but those specific for EBV and CMV do not. CD39 expressed by CD8+ T cells in chronic infection is enzymatically active, co-expressed with PD-1, marks cells with a transcriptional signature of T cell exhaustion and correlates with viral load in HIV and HCV. In the mouse model of chronic Lymphocytic Choriomeningitis Virus infection, virus-specific CD8+ T cells contain a population of CD39high CD8+ T cells that is absent in functional memory cells elicited by acute infection. This CD39high CD8+ T cell population is enriched for cells with the phenotypic and functional profile of terminal exhaustion. These findings provide a new marker of T cell exhaustion, and implicate the purinergic pathway in the regulation of T cell exhaustion. CD8+ T cells from subjects with HCV infection were sorted and pelleted and re-suspended in TRIzol (Invitrogen). RNA extraction was performed using the RNAdvance Tissue Isolation kit (Agencourt). Concentrations of total RNA were determined with a Nanodrop spectrophotometer or Ribogreen RNA quantification kits (Molecular Probes/Invitrogen). RNA purity was determined by Bioanalyzer 2100 traces (Agilent Technologies). Total RNA was amplified with the WT-Ovation Pico RNA Amplification system (NuGEN) according to the manufacturer's instructions. After fragmentation and biotinylation, cDNA was hybridized to HG-U133A 2.0 microarrays (Affymetrix).

Project description:To identify the subsets of exhausted T cells and to analyze the transcriptional-metabolic programs alongside their developmental trajectories at single-cell resolution, we isolated CD44+ PD-1hi CD8+ T cells from chronically infected wild-type (WT) mice 21 days after infection with the ‘clone 13’ strain of lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV) by FACs sorting aand performed scRNA-sequencing.

Project description:We study the global gene expression profiles of BKV viremia and nephropathy patients using microarrays in order to better understand the immunologic response to polyomavirus BK (BKV). BKV has become increasingly prevalent since the introduction of more potent immunosuppressive agents. It has been shown that as many as 30% of renal transplant recipients develop asymptomatic viral shedding in the urine shortly after transplant, 10-20% have viremia, and as many as 1-10% can go on to develop overt nephropathy (BKVN) that might lead to graft loss. To date, the genomics of BKV viremia and BKVN have not been investigated thoroughly by microarray. Patients who were enrolled in the IRB-approved Immune Monitoring Study had blood PAXGene samples taken at post-transplant visits and had clinically indicated biopsy samples were used for analysis. A total of 17 biopsy samples were used for gene expression profiling microarrays, three with histopathologic diagnosis of BKVN, 3 patients with evidence of BK viral replication in peripheral blood, but normal biopsy and 11 patients with normal biopsies or mild IFTA, and stable graft function. Blood PAXGene samples from 40 patients were used for gene expression profiling by microarrays, 14 patients with stable graft function and without BK viremia, 19 patients' blood samples at the time of BKV viremia, and 7 patients blood samples taken 1-2 months prior to development of BK viremia.
