Transcription profiling by high throughput of CD4 T memory cells before and after DNA methylation

ABSTRACT: Memory T cells are primed for rapid responses to antigen; however, the molecular mechanisms responsible for priming remain incompletely defined. CpG methylation in promoters is an epigenetic modification, which regulates gene transcription. Using targeted bisulfite sequencing, we examined methylation of 2100 genes (56,000 CpG) mapped by deep sequencing to T cell activation in human naïve and memory CD4 T cells. 466 CpGs (132 genes) displayed differential methylation between naïve and memory cells. 21 genes exhibited both differential methylation and gene expression before activation, linking promoter DNA methylation states to gene regulation; 6 genes encode proteins closely studied in T cells while 15 genes represent novel targets for further study. 39 genes exhibited reduced methylation in memory cells coupled with increased gene expression with activation compared to naïve cells, revealing specific genes more rapidly expressed in memory compared to naïve cells and potentially regulated by DNA methylation. These findings define a DNA methylation signature unique to memory CD4 T cells and correlated with activation-induced gene expression. RNA sequencing of primary human naïve and memory CD4 T cells at rest and 48 hours post-activation.

Promoter H3K4 methylation dynamically reinforces activation-induced pathways in human CD4 T cells

Project description:The epigenetic determinants driving the rapid responses of memory CD4 T cells to antigen are currently an area of active research. While much has been done to characterize various Th subsets and their associated genome-wide epigenetic patterns, the dynamics of histone modifications during CD4 T cell activation and the differential kinetics of these epigenetic marks between naïve and memory T cells have not been evaluated. In this study we have detailed the dynamics of genome-wide promoter H3K4me2 and H3K4me3 over a time course during activation of human naïve and memory CD4 T cells. Our results demonstrate that changes to H3K4 methylation predominantly occur relatively late after activation (120 hours) and reinforce activation-induced upregulation of gene expression affecting multiple pathways important to T cell activation, differentiation, and function. The dynamics and mapped pathways of H3K4 methylation are distinctly different in memory cells. Memory CD4 have substantially more promoters marked by H3K4me3 alone, and that is influenced by promoter CpG content, reinforcing their more differentiated state. Our study provides the first data examining genome-wide histone modification dynamics during T cell activation, providing insight into the cross-talk between H3K4 methylation and gene expression, and underscoring the impact of these marks upon key pathways integral to CD4 T cell activation and function. ChIP-Seq for H3K4me2, H3K4me3, and H3K27me3 in naïve and memory CD4 T cells at rest and at 3 time points after activation with anti-CD3/CD28.

Transcriptome analysis of primary human CD4+ T-cell activation

Project description:In order investigate the control of genes encoding cytoskeletal motor proteins and their interaction partners in primary T-cells, we performed whole transcriptome microarray profiling of cell activation for memory and naïve T-cells isolated from three anonymous blood donors. CD4+CD25- naïve or memory T-cells were cultured in medium alone or stimulated ex vivo and harvested for total RNA isolation and whole transcriptome microarray analysis.

The characteristics of genome-wide DNA methylation in naïve CD4+ T cells of patients with psoriasis and atopic dermatitis

Project description:Psoriasis and atopic dermatitis (AD) are characterized by polarized CD4+ T cell responses. During the polarization of naïve CD4+ T cells, DNA methylation plays an important role in the regulation of gene transcription. In this study, we profiled the genome-wide DNA methylation status of naïve CD4+ T cells in patients with psoriasis or AD and healthy controls using a ChIP-seq method. As a result, twenty-six regions in the genome ranging in size from 10 to 70 kb were markedly hypomethylated in patients with psoriasis. These regions were mostly pericentromeric on 10 different chromosomes and overlapped with various strong epigenomic signals, such as histone modifications and transcription factor binding sites, that were observed in the ENCODE project. Gene-centric analysis indicated that the promoter regions of 124 genes on the X chromosome had dramatically elevated methylation levels in patients with psoriasis as compared to those from healthy controls (> 4-fold). Moreover, immune-related genes on the X chromosome had higher hypermethylation than other genes (P < 0.05). These findings imply that methylation changes in naïve CD4+ T cells may affect CD4+ T cell polarization, especially in the pathogenesis of psoriasis. Keywords: Psoriasis, Atopic dermatitis, DNA methylation, naïve CD4+ T cells Sample submission examines DNA methylation from human naive CD4+ T cells in patients with psoriasis and atopic dermatitis.

Expression data from primary and secondary CD4 T cell effectors responding towards influenza A virus infection

Project description:How secondary CD4 T cell effectors, derived from resting memory cells, differ from primary cells, derived from naïve precursors, and how such differences impact recall responses to pathogens is unknown. We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression underlying differences between primary and secondary CD4 T cell effectors purified from the spleen, dLN, and lung on day 7 following A/PR8/34 influenza infection. Congenic naïve or in vivo influenza primed memory HNT TCR trangenic CD4 T cells were sort purifed from the spleens, dLNs, and lungs of infected mice on day 7 post infection for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. We sought to obtain only CD4 T cell populations that had entered into the immune response by also sorting and collecting only those cells that had divided at least 5 times by CFSE analysis.

Profiling of naïve and memory Tregs

Project description:Changes in Treg function are difficult to quantify due to the lack of Treg-exclusive markers in humans and the complexity of functional experiments. We sorted naive and memory human Tregs and conventional T cells, and identified genes that identify human Tregs regardless of their state of activation. We developed this Treg signature using Affymetrix human genome U133A 2.0 microarrays. To generate Tregs and Tconvs in multiple states of activation, naïve (CD4+CD25hiCD45RA+) and memory (CD4+CD25hiCD45RA-) Tregs, and naïve (CD4+CD25-CD45RA+) and memory (CD4+CD25-CD45RA-) Tconvs were sorted from blood of 7 healthy adults and RNA was isolated ex vivo or after stimulation for 40h, promoting activation-induced FOXP3 in Tconvs. The gene-expression profile of the eight cell subsets was analyzed. 7 adult healthy control samples were sorted into 4 subsets: naïve (CD4+CD25hiCD45RA+) and memory (CD4+CD25hiCD45RA-) Tregs, and naïve (CD4+CD25-CD45RA+) and memory (CD4+CD25-CD45RA-) Tconvs. These were used for RNA ex vivo and after 40h stimulation with anti-CD3/CD28 beads to induce an activation phenotype.
