Project description:CD4+ conventional T (Tconv) lymphocytes display an important role in tumor immunity; however, their contribution to tumor elimination remains poorly understood. Here we describe a subset of tumor-infiltrating Tconv cells characterized by the expression of CD39. In mouse cancer models CD39+ Tconv cells accumulate with tumor growth but are absent in lymphoid organs. Compared to tumor CD39- Tconv cells, CD39+ cells exhibit a cytotoxic and exhausted signature at the transcriptomic level, confirmed by high protein expression of co-inhibitory receptors and transcription factors related to exhaustion. Additionally, CD39+ Tconv cells show an increased production of INFg, Granzyme B, Perforin and CD107a, but a reduced production of TNF upon in vitro stimulation. In vivo, CTLA-4 blockage induces the expansion of CD39+ Tconv cells in the tumor, while maintaining their features of cytotoxicity and exhaustion. In breast cancer patients, CD39+ Tconv cells are found in tumors, and at lower frequency in the adjacent non-tumoral mammary tissue. CD39+ Tconv cells are also present in metastatic but not detected in non-metastatic lymph nodes and blood. Human tumor CD39+ Tconv cells constitute a heterogeneous cell population with features of exhaustion, impaired TNF production, and high expression of co-inhibitory receptors and CD107a. High gene expression of CD4 and ENTPD1 (CD39) in human tumor tissues correlates with higher overall survival rate in breast cancer patients. Our results identify CD39 as a biomarker of CD4+ T cells with characteristics of both exhaustion and cytotoxic potential and put forward CD39+ Tconv cells as pivotal players of the immune response against tumors.

Project description:CD39- and CD39+ human thymus-derived regulatory T-cells (tTreg) present as distinct subsets with specific functional and metabolic response patterns. Both cell types express equal levels of the canonical tTreg transcription factors FOXP3 and Helios and overexpression studies have shown that CD39 expression is independent of these two transcription factors. So far, no transcriptomic analyses to adress these differences have been performed. We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression between CD39- and CD39+ human tTreg and identified distinct classes of up-regulated and down-regulated genes between these two subsets.

Project description:To explore the functional difference between CD90+CD39+ and CD90+CD39- fibroblasts in human hypertrophic scar and normal skin, the gene expresson microarray was performed on Live CD49f- E-Cadherin- Lin- CD45- CD31- CD90+ CD39+ and Live CD49f- E-Cadherin- Lin- CD45- CD31- CD90+ CD39- cells sorted from suspension disgested from three human hypertrophic scar samples; and Live CD49f- E-Cadherin- Lin- CD45- CD31- CD90+ CD39+ cells sorted from suspension disgested from three human normal skin samples

Project description:CTLA4-CD28 gene fusion has been reported to occur in diverse types of T-cell lymphoma. The fusion event is expected to convert inhibitory signals to activating signals promoting proliferation and potentially transformation of T-cells. To test the function of the CTLA4-CD28 fusion gene in vivo, we generated a murine model that expresses the gene in a T-cell specific manner. The transgenic mice show shorter life spans and inflammatory responses including lymphadenopathy and splenomegaly. T-cells show higher levels of activation and infiltrate various organs including skin and lung. T-cells, in particular CD4+ helper T-cells, were also readily transplanted to immunocompromised mice. Transcriptomic profiling revealed that the gene expression pattern in CD4+ cells most closely resembles that of adult T cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATLL). Consistently, we detected supernumerary Foxp3+ cells in transgenic and transplanted mice. This is the first report demonstrating the transforming activity of the CTLA4-CD28 fusion gene in vivo, and this murine model should be useful in dissecting the molecular events subsequent to the mutation in ATLL.

Project description:Ctla4-/- mice suffer from a severe autoimmunity characterized by indiscriminate self-reactive T cell activation. Itk-/-Ctla4-/- (DKO) mice are protected from lethal autoimmunity despite a fulminant autoimmune process in the LNs as self-reative T cells fail to migrate to destroy tissues. We used microarray to identify underlying differences in gene expression that could account for lack of migration of DKO T cells into tissues. CD4+CD25neg T cells from 3 weeks old male Ctla4-/- or DKO mice were sorted in duplicates, RNA was extracted using TRIzol reagent and microarray analysis performed with the Affymetrix MoGene 1.0 ST array

Project description:Here, we discovered that the frequency of CD39+γδ Tregs, which positively correlated with poor prognosis, was significantly higher in right-sided colorectal cancer (RSCRC) than in the left-sided CRC (LSCRC). To explore the molecular mechanism leading to the difference of CD39+γδ Tregs derived from RSCRC and LSCRC, we collected fresh tissue samples of RSCRC with high expression of CD39+γδ Tregs and the LSCRC with low expression of CD39+γδ Tregs detected by flow cytometry and identified differential proteins by LC-MS based quantitative proteomic analysis with tandem mass tag (TMT)

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:During activation, T cells integrate multiple signals from APCs and cytokine milieu. The blockade of these signals can have clinical benefits as exemplified by CTLA4-Ig, which blocks interaction of B7 co-stimulatory molecules on APCs with CD28 on T cells. Variants of CTLA4-Ig, abatacept and belatacept are FDA approved as immunosuppressive agents in arthritis and transplantation whereas murine studies suggested that CTLA4-Ig can be beneficial in a number of other diseases. However, detailed analysis of human CD4 cell hyporesponsivness induced by CTLA4-Ig has not been performed. Herein, we established a model to study effect of CTLA4-Ig on the activation of human naM-CM-/ve T cells in a human mixed lymphocytes system. Comparison of human CD4 cells activated in the presence or absence of CTLA4-Ig, showed that co-stimulation blockade during TCR activation does not affect NFAT signaling but results in decreased activation of NF-kB and AP-1 transcription factors followed by profound decrease in proliferation and cytokine production. The resulting T cells become hyporesponsive to secondary activation and, although capable of receiving TCR signals, fail to proliferate or produce cytokines, demonstrating properties of anergic cells. However, unlike some models of T cell anergy, these cells did not possess increased levels of TCR signaling inhibitor CBLB. Rather, the CTLA4-Ig induced hyporesponsiveness was associated with an elevated level of p27kip1 cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor. Time series. Human resting and activated T cell dUTP mRNA-Seq profiles were generated on Illumina HiSeq2500
