Project description:Arginase 1 (Arg1), the enzyme catalyzing the conversion of arginine to ornithine, is a hallmark of IL-10-producing immunoregulatory M2 macrophages. However, its expression in T cells is disputed. Here, we demonstrate that induction of Arg1 expression is a key feature of lung CD4+ T cells during mouse in vivo influenza infection. Conditional ablation of Arg1 in CD4+ T cells accelerated both virus-specific T helper 1 (Th1) effector responses and its resolution, resulting in efficient viral clearance and reduced lung pathology. Using unbiased transcriptomics and metabolomics, we found that Arg1-deficiency was distinct from Arg2-deficiency and caused altered glutamine metabolism. Rebalancing this perturbed glutamine flux normalized the cellular Th1 response. CD4+ T cells from rare ARG1-deficient patients or CRISPR-Cas9-mediated ARG1-deletion in healthy donor cells phenocopied the murine cellular phenotype. Collectively, CD4+ T cell-intrinsic Arg1 functions as an unexpected rheostat regulating the kinetics of the mammalian Th1 lifecycle with implications for Th1-associated tissue pathologies.

Project description:Elevation of arginase enzyme activity in the lung contributes to the pathogenesis of various chronic inflammatory diseases and infections. Inhibition of arginase expression and activity is able to alleviate those effects. Here, we investigated the immunomodulatory effect of arginase inhibitor in C. neoformans infection. In the pulmonary cryptococcosis model that was shown to recapitulate human infection, we found arginase expression was excessively induced in the lung during the late stage of infection. To inhibit the activity of arginase, we administered a specific arginase inhibitor, nor-NOHA, during C. neoformans infection. Inhibition of arginase reduced eosinophil infiltration and level of IL-13 secretion in the lungs. Whole lung transcriptome RNA-sequencing analysis revealed that treatment with nor-NOHA resulted in shifting the Th2-type gene expression patterns induced by C. neoformans infection to the Th1-type immune profile, with higher expression of cytokines Ifng, Il6, Tnfa, Csf3, chemokines Cxcl9 and Cxcl10 and transcription factor Stat1. More importantly, mice treated with arginase inhibitor had more infiltrating brain leukocytes and enhanced gene expression of Th1-associated cytokines and chemokines that are known to be essential for protection against C. neoformans infection. Inhibition of arginase dramatically attenuated spleen and brain infection, with improved survival. Taken together, these studies demonstrated that inhibiting arginase activity induced by C. neoformans infection can modulate host immune response by enhancing protective type-1 immune response during C. neoformans infection. The inhibition of arginase activity could be an immunomodulatory target to enhance protective anti-cryptococcal immune responses.

Project description:As sufficient extracellular arginine is crucial for T cell function, depletion of extracellular arginine by elevated Arginase 1 (Arg1) activity has emerged as a hallmark immunosuppressive mechanism. However, the potential cell-autonomous roles of arginases in T cells have remained unexplored. Here we show that the arginase isoform expressed by T cells, the mitochondrial Arginase 2 (Arg2), is a cell-intrinsic regulator of CD8+ T cell activity. Both germ-line Arg2 deletion and adoptive transfer of Arg2-/- CD8+ T cells significantly reduced tumor growth in preclinical cancer models by enhancing CD8+ T cell activation, effector function and persistence. Transcriptomic, proteomic and high-dimensional flow cytometry characterization revealed a CD8+ T cell-intrinsic role of Arg2 in modulating T cell activation, anti-tumor cytoxicity and memory formation, independently of extracellular arginine availability. Furthermore, specific deletion of Arg2 in CD8+ T cells strongly synergized with PD-1 blockade for the control of tumor growth and animal survival. These observations coupled with the finding that pharmacologic arginase inhibition accelerates activation of ex vivo human T cells unveil Arg2 as a new therapeutic target for T cell-based cancer therapies.

Project description:The tumor microenvironment (TME) contains various immune-suppressive cells such as regulatory T cells (Tregs) and M2-like tumor associated macrophages (TAMs) that express the enzyme arginase I (Arg1). T helper 1-polarized Treg (Th1-Treg) is a Treg subset that markedly accumulate in tumor tissues, suppressing anti-tumor immunity. However, little is known about the mechanism behind the abundant presence of Th1-Tregs in TME. Here we show that Arg1-expressing TAMs (Arg1+ TAMs) play critical roles for the high Th1-Treg ratio in TME. Selective depletion of Arg1+ TAMs using the VeDTR system inhibited tumor growth and concurrently reduced the Th1-Treg ratio in TME. Notably, Arg1+ TAMs secreted platelet factor 4 (PF4) that polarized Tregs to Th1-Tregs in a CXCR3-dependent manner. Both genetic PF4 inactivation and PF4 neutralization hindered Th1-Treg accumulation in TME, consequently suppressing tumor growth. Collectively, our study highlights the importance of M2-like TAM-produced PF4 for high Th1-Treg levels in TME to suppress anti-tumor immunity, and demonstrates PF4 neutralization as a potential cancer immunotherapeutic strategy by intervening the M2-like TAM/Th1-Treg axis.

Project description:Deficiency of arginase is associated with hyperargininemia, and unlike the other disorders of the urea cycle, the major mechanism of metabolism of nitrogen in terrestrial mammals, are characteristic and prominent features that include spastic diplegia/tetraplegia, clonus, and hyperreflexia; loss of ambulation, intellectual disability and progressive neurological decline are other signs. To gain greater insight into the unique neuromotor features, we performed gene expression profiling of the motor cortex of a well-characterized murine model of the disorder. Co-expression network analysis suggested an abnormality with myelination, which was supported by limited existing human data. Utilizing electron microscopy, marked dysmyelination was detected in 2-week-old homozygous ARG1 knockout mice. The corticospinal tract was found to be adversely affected, supporting dysmyelination as the cause of the unique neuromuscular features and implicating oligodendrocyte impairment in a deficiency of hepatic ARG1. Following neonatal hepatic gene therapy to express ARG1, the subcortical white matter, pyramidal tract, and corticospinal tract all showed a remarkable recovery in terms of myelinated axon density and ultrastructural integrity with active wrapping of axons by nearby oligodendrocyte processes. These findings support the following conclusions: first, arginase deficiency is a leukodystrophy affecting the brain and spinal cord while sparing the peripheral nervous system; and second, neonatal AAV hepatic gene therapy can rescue the defects associated with myelinated axons, strongly implicating the functional recovery of oligodendrocytes after restoration of hepatic arginase activity. These findings support the consideration of early restoration of hepatic arginase activity in those afflicted with arginase deficiency.
