Single-cell Atlas of intrahepatic T cells reveals a population of liver-resident naive-like CD4+ T cells expanded in primary sclerosing cholangitis


ABSTRACT: The composition of intrahepatic immune cells in primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) and their contribution to disease pathogenesis is widely unknown. We here generated a single-cell atlas of intrahepatic T cells in PSC, a type of immune cells that has previously been involved in the pathogenesis of PSC. This atlas provides a valuable data source to the field. Using that atlas, we identified a population of liver-resident naive-like CD4+ T cells which are expanded in livers of patients with PSC compared to healthy and other liver diseases. Trajectory inference suggest that these cells have a propensity to acquire TH17-associated effector functions. Using blood-derived cells naive CD4+ T cells we experimentally prove this propensity. Since TH17-polarized cells are considered to contribute to the development of PSC, our findings point towards a so far underestimated role of naive T cells in PSC.

<h4>Background & aims</h4>Little is known about the composition of intrahepatic immune cells and their contribution to the pathogenesis of primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC). Herein, we aimed to create an atlas of intrahepatic T cells and thereby perform an in-depth characterization of T cells in inflamed human liver.<h4>Methods</h4>Different single-cell RNA sequencing methods were combined with in silico analyses on intrahepatic and peripheral T cells from patients with PSC (n = 11) and healt  ...[more]
