Transcription profiling of mouse effector cells derived from naive or central memory pmel-1 CD8+ T cells

ABSTRACT: Effector cells for adoptive immunotherapy can be generated by in vitro stimulation of naÃ¯ve or memory subsets of CD8+ T cells. While the characteristics of CD8+ T cell subsets are well defined, the heritable influence of those populations on their effector cell progeny is not well understood. We studied effector cells generated from naÃ¯ve or central memory CD8+ T cells and found that they retained distinct gene expression signatures and developmental programs. Effector cells derived from central memory cells tended to retain their CD62L+ phenotype, but also to acquire KLRG1, an indicator of cellular senescence. In contrast, the effector cell progeny of naÃ¯ve cells displayed reduced terminal differentiation, and, following infusion, they displayed greater expansion, cytokine production, and tumor destruction. These data indicate that effector cells retain a gene expression imprint conferred by their naÃ¯ve or central memory progenitors, and they suggest a strategy for enhancing cancer immunotherapy. Experiment Overall Design: Effector cells were generated from naive or central memory CD8+ T cells. The cells were then rested (unstimulated) or restimulated (stimulated). This experimental design resulted in 4 groups (NaÃ¯ve-derived/stimulated, NaÃ¯ve-derived/unstimulated, Central memory-derived/stimulated, Central memory-derived/unstimulated). Three replicates from independent experiments were analyzed.

Project description:During a T cell response, naÃ¯ve CD8 T cells differentiate into effector cells. Subsequently, a subset of effector cells termed memory precursor effector cells (MPECs) further differentiates into functionally mature memory CD8 T cells. The transcriptional network underlying this carefully scripted process is not well understood. Here, we report that the transcription factor FoxO1 plays an integral role in facilitating effector to memory transition and functional maturation of memory CD4 and CD8 T cells. We find that FoxO1 is not required for differentiation of effector cells, but in the absence of FoxO1, memory CD8 T cells displayed features of scenescence and progressive attrition in polyfunctionality, which in turn led to impared recall responses and poor protective immunity. These data suggest that FoxO1 is essential for active maintenance of functional CD8 T cell memory and protective immunity. Under competing conditions in bone marrow Single-cell suspensions from splenocytes of eight samples WT (control) and FoxO1-/- (experimental) LCMV-immune mice were prepared using standard procedures. CD8 T cells were then isoloated using Thy1.2 (CD90.2) (30-H12) microbeads (Miltenyi Biotec). Cells were then stained with anti-CD8, anti-CD44 and Db/NP396 MHC class I tetramer. Activated (CD8+CD44hi), naive (CD8+CD44lo), and virus-specific CD8 T cells were sorted using FACSAria II instrument (BD Biosciences). The purity of the cells was >95%. Total RNA was extracted from the sorted cells by Trizol Reagent. RNA samples were reverse transcribed and Cy3-labeled cDNAs were hyrbidized to Agilent whole Mouse Genome Oligo Microarrays. Fluorscence signals were detected using Agilent's Microarray Scanner system, data was analyzed using the Rosetta Resolver gene expression data analysis system and genes with a fold change < and p-values <0.01 were identified. Microarray data discussed in the paper is focused on virus-specific memory CD8 T cells from samples WT_Tet_2 vs KO_Tet_2.
