Project description:Allogeneic Vγ9Vδ2 (Vδ2) T cells are attractive candidates in the development of cancer therapies due to their demonstrated safety in allogeneic settings and innate ability to fight tumors. However, the limited clinical success of Vδ2 T cell-based treatments may be attributed to donor variability, short-lived persistence, and tumor evasion. To address these limitations, we have generated Vδ2 T cells with improved properties. By utilizing CD16 as a donor selection biomarker, we have generated Vδ2 T cells with high levels of cytotoxicity and potent antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC) function, and RNA sequencing characterization supports the increased effector function of Vδ2 T cells obtained from CD16 high (CD16Hi) donors. Further improvement was achieved through CAR and IL-15 engineering techniques. Preclinical studies in two ovarian cancer models showed that engineered CD16Hi Vδ2 T cells are both effective and safe, targeting tumors through multiple mechanisms, exhibiting long-term persistence in vivo, and not causing graft-versus-host disease. These findings support the potential of engineered CD16Hi Vδ2 T cells as a viable cancer therapy option.

Project description:Gamma delta (γδ) T cells reside within human tissues including tumors, but their role in mediating anti-tumor response with immune checkpoint inhibition is unknown. Using single-cell approaches, we found that kidney cancers are infiltrated by diverse Vδ2- γδ T cells, with equivalent representation of Vδ1+ and Vδ1- cells, that are distinct from γδ T cells found in normal human tissues. These tumor-resident Vδ2- T cells can express the transcriptional program of exhausted alpha beta (ab) CD8+ T cells as well as canonical markers of terminal T cell exhaustion including PD-1, TIGIT and TIM-3. While Vδ2- γδ T cells have blunted IL-2 production, they retain expression of cytolytic effector molecules and costimulatory receptors like 4-1BB. Exhausted Vδ2- γδ T cells are comprised of three distinct populations that lack TCF-7, are clonally expanded, express of cytotoxic molecules, and possess multiple Vδ2- TCRs. Human tumor-derived Vδ2- γδ T cells maintain cytotoxic function and pro-inflammatory cytokine secretion in vitro. The transcriptional program of Vδ2- T cells in pre-treatment tumor biopsies predicted subsequent clinical responses to PD-1 blockade in vivo in cancer patients. Thus, Vδ2- γδ T cells within the tumor microenvironment can contribute to anti-tumor efficacy.

Project description:Human peripheral blood monocytes (Mo) consist of subsets distinguished by expression of CD16 (FCGRIII) and chemokine receptors. Classical CD16- Mo express CCR2 and migrate in response to CCL2, while a minor CD16+ Mo subset expresses CX3CR1 and migrates into tissues expressing CX3CL1. CD16+ Mo produce pro-inflammatory cytokines and are expanded in certain inflammatory conditions including HIV infection. To gain insight into the developmental relationship and functions of CD16+ and CD16- Mo, we examined transcriptional profiles of these Mo subsets in peripheral blood from healthy individuals. Of 16,328 expressed genes, 2,759 genes were differentially expressed and 228 and 250 were >2-fold upregulated and downregulated, respectively, in CD16+ compared to CD16- Mo. CD16+ Mo were distinguished by upregulation of dendritic cell (DC) (SIGLEC10, CD43, RARA) and macrophage (MF) (CSF1R/CD115, MafB, CD97, C3aR) markers together with transcripts relevant for DC-T cell interaction (CXCL16, ICAM-2, LFA-1), cell activation (LTB, TNFRSF8, LST1, IFITM1-3, HMOX1, SOD-1, WARS, MGLL), and negative regulation of the cell cycle (CDKN1C, MTSS1), whereas CD16- Mo were distinguished by upregulation of myeloid (CD14, MNDA, TREM1, CD1d, C1qR/CD93) and granulocyte markers (FPR1, GCSFR/CD114, S100A8-9/12). Differential gene expression in CD16+ and CD16- Mo was confirmed by quantitative real time RT-PCR (i.e., CD16, C3AR1, C1QR1, ICAM-2, CSF1R, CSF3R, CDKN1C, TNFRSF1, and LTB) and flow cytometry (i.e., CSF1R, CSF3R, C1QR1, C3AR1, CD1d, CD43, CXCL16, and CX3CR1). Furthermore, increased expression of RARA and KLF2 transcripts in CD16+ Mo coincided with absence of cutaneous lymphocyte associated antigen (CLA) expression, indicating potential imprinting for non-skin homing. These results suggest that CD16+ and CD16- Mo originate from a common myeloid precursor, with CD16+ Mo having a more MF- and DC-like transcription program suggesting a more advanced stage of differentiation. Distinct transcriptional programs, together with their recruitment into tissues via different mechanisms, also suggest that CD16+ and CD16- Mo give rise to functionally distinct DC and MF in vivo.

Project description:Vγ9Vδ2 T cells are an attractive cell platform for the off-the-shelf cancer immunotherapy due to their lack of alloreactivity and inherent multi-pronged cytotoxicity, which could be further amplified with chimeric antigen receptors (CARs). In this study, we sought to enhance the in vivo longevity of CAR-Vδ2 T cells by modulating ex vivo manufacturing conditions and selecting an optimal CAR costimulatory domain. Specifically, we compared the anti-tumor activity of Vδ2 T cells expressing anti-CD19 CARs with costimulatory endodomains derived from CD28, 4-1BB or CD27 and generated in either standard fetal bovine serum (FBS)- or human platelet lysate (HPL)-supplemented medium. We found that HPL supported greater expansion of CAR-Vδ2 T cells with comparable in vitro cytotoxicity and cytokine secretion to FBS-expanded CAR-Vδ2 T cells. HPL-expanded CAR-Vδ2 T cells showed enhanced in vivo anti-tumor activity with longer T cell persistence compared to FBS counterparts, with 4-1BB costimulated CAR showing the greatest activity. Mechanistically, HPL-expanded CAR Vδ2 T cells exhibited reduced apoptosis and senescence transcriptional pathways compared to FBS-expanded CAR-Vδ2 T cells and increased telomerase activity. This study supports enhancement of therapeutic potency of CAR-Vδ2 T cells through a manufacturing improvement.

Project description:We utilized RNA-seq to identify differential gene expression in Vγ9 Vδ2 gdT cells isolated from human PBMCs upon TCR stimulation. We find that ~30% genes are commonly up- and down-regulated between different phosphoantigen treatments (p<0.05). Inhibition of Notch signaling alongside TCR activation results in downregulation of many effector genes in Vγ9 Vδ2 T cells.

Project description:γδ T cells provide rapid cellular immunity against pathogens. Here, we conducted matched single-cell RNA-sequencing and γδ-TCR-sequencing to delineate the molecular changes in γδ T cells during a longitudinal study following mRNA SARS-CoV-2 vaccination. While the first dose of vaccine primes Vδ2 T cells, it is the second administration that significantly boosts their immune response. Specifically, the second vaccination uncovers memory features of Vδ2 T cells, shaped by the induction of AP-1 family transcription factors and characterized by a convergent central memory signature, clonal expansion, and an enhanced effector potential. This temporally distinct effector response of Vδ2 T cells was also confirmed in vitro upon stimulation with SARS-CoV-2 spike-peptides. Indeed, the second challenge triggers a significantly higher production of IFNγ by Vδ2 T cells. Collectively, our findings suggest that mRNA SARS-CoV-2 vaccination might benefit from the establishment of long-lasting central memory Vδ2 T cells to confer protection against SARS-CoV-2 infection.

Project description:Classical CD16- versus intermediate/non-classical CD16+ monocytes differ in their homing potential and immunological functions; but whether they differentiate into dendritic cells (DC) with distinct contributions to immunity against bacterial/viral pathogens remains poorly investigated. Here, we employed a systems biology approach to identify differences between CD16+ and CD16- monocyte-derived DC (MDDC) with potential clinical relevance Although both CD16+ and CD16- MDDC acquire classical DC markers in vitro, genome-wide transcriptional profiling revealed unique molecular signatures for CD16+ MDDC, including adhesion molecules (CD103), transcription factors (TCF4), enzymes (ALDH1L2), and chemokines (CCL22).

Project description:New HIV vaccine approaches are focused on eliciting broadly neutralizing antibodies. We characterized early gamma-delta (γδ) T cell responses starting from pre-acquisition and during acute HIV infection (AHI) in participants previously characterized for neutralization breadth development. We found significant differences in γδ T cell surface marker expression in participants that developed neutralization breadth compared to those that did not. Activation of γδ T cells occurred within the first weeks of HIV acquisition and associated with viral load. Expression of CD16 on Vδ1 T cells and CD57 on Vδ2 T cells were found to be significantly higher in broad neutralizers during AHI, and associated with the development of neutralization breadth years later. In addition, the levels of CD16 on Vδ1 T cells was associated with early production of founder virus Env-specific IgM. Thus, γδ T cells may promote development of neutralization breadth, which has implications for HIV vaccine strategies.

Experiment Overall Design: Total Mo were isolated by negative selection using magnetic immunobeads (Monocyte Isolation Kit II, Miltenyi). CD16+ and CD16- Mo fractions were further isolated using CD16 magnetic immunobeads (Miltenyi). Total RNA from Mo pellets was isolated by Trizol extraction and purified using RNeasy columns (Qiagen). The quality of RNA was assessed by visualization of intact bands corresponding to 18S and 28S rRNA on formaldehyde agarose gels. Total RNA (10 µg) from matched CD16+ and CD16- Mo samples isolated from 4 different healthy donors was quality tested using an Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer chip, reverse transcribed, and hybridized on the GeneChip Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array (Affymetrix), which includes 54,000 probe sets on a single array (i.e., 47,000 transcripts and variants, including 38,500 well-characterized human genes). Primary data analysis performed using GeneSpring software (Biopolymer core facility, Harvard Medical School) generated Excel spreadsheets with relative gene expression values for the 4 matched CD16+ and CD16- Mo subsets.
