Project description:Effector CD8+ T cells are believed to be terminally differentiated cells having cytotoxic activity and the ability to produce effector cytokines such as INF-M-NM-3 and TNF-M-NM-1. We investigated the difference between CXCR1+ and CXCR1- subsets of human effector CD27-CD28-CD8+ T cells. Both subsets similarly expressed cytolytic molecules and exerted substantial cytolytic activity, whereas only the CXCR1- subset had IL-2 productivity and self-proliferative activity and was more resistant to cell death than the CXCR1+ subset. These differences were explained by the specific up-regulation of CAMK4, SPRY2, and IL-7R in the CXCR1- subset and that of pro-apoptotic DAPK1 in the CXCR1+ subset. The IL-2 producers were more frequently found in the IL-7R+ subset of the CXCR1- effector CD8+ T cells than in the IL-7R- subset. IL-7/IL-7R signaling promoted cell survival only in the CXCR1- subset. The present study has highlighted a novel subset of effector CD8+ T cells producing IL-2 and suggests the importance of this subset in the homeostasis of effector CD8+ T cells. To find the genes that potentially cause the difference in IL-2 productivity and cell survival between the CXCR1+ and CXCR1- human effector CD8+ T cell subsets, we performed microarray gene expression analysis. We highly purified each CD3+CD8+ subset for this analysis (> 95.3%) from 5 healthy individuals, and then compared the gene expression profiles of each subset.

Project description:To understand the regulation of cytotoxicity by decidual CD8+ T cells (CD8+ dT) at the maternal-fetal interface, gene expression analysis of CCR7-CD45RA- effector-memory CD8+ T cells isolated from peripheral blood of unrelated healthy controls and decidual tissue from first trimester (6-12 weeks) and term (>37 weeks) pregnancy was performed. Furthermore, first trimester decidual effector-memory CD8+ T cells were stimulated with anti-CD3/CD28 in the presence of IL-2 for 12 hours or 72 hours. RNA was isolated and gene expression profiles were generated by employing Affymetrix HG_U133_Plus 2 arrays on the Affymetrix Geneatlas system.

Project description:The transcription factor Thpok is essential for CD4 T cell development in the thymus and remains expressed in post-thymic CD4 T cells. We post-thymically inactivated Thpok and compared microarray gene expression in Thpok-deficient CD4 T cells to that in their wildtype CD4 or CD8 counterparts We show that Thpok constrains the transcriptional circuitry to maintain CD4+-lineage integrity in naM-CM-/ve cells and to couple effector differentiation to environmental cues after antigenic stimulation. Redundantly with the related factor LRF, Thpok is continuously needed to prevent the trans-differentiation of mature CD4+ into -CD8+ T cells. We activated naM-CM-/ve CD4 T cells (either wild-type or Thpok-deficient) and CD8 T cells (wild-type) in vitro under Th1 conditions. Differentiated effectors were sorted 4 days after activation into CD4+CD8- and CD4-CD8+ (wild-type) and CD4+CD8- and CD4+CD8+ (Thpok-deficient) subsets. Total RNA was extracted from sorted subsets and processed for microarray analyses (Affymetrix Mouse Exon 1.0 ST array) at the NCI microarray facility, following the manufacturerM-bM-^@M-^Ys recommendation. Data is from 3 replicates (except wild-type CD4-CD8+ cells, for which two samples only were processed), generated from two distinct cell preparations.

Project description:Differentiation of CD8+ T lymphocytes into effector and memory cells is key for an adequate immune response and relies on complex interplay of pathways that convey signals from cell surface to nucleus. In this study, we fractionated four CD8+ T cell subtypes; naïve, recently activated effector, effector and memory cells into membrane, cytosol, soluble nucleus, chromatin-bound and cytoskeleton compartments. Using LC-MS/MS analysis, identified peptides were matched to human peptides/proteins (SwissProt). Compartment fractionation and gel-LC-MS separation identified 2399 proteins in total. Among these 735 were detected in all five, 241 in four, 257 in three, 368 in two and 798 found in only one fraction. Comparison between the two most different subsets, naïve and effector, yielded 146 significantly regulated proteins.

Project description:Using killer cell lectin-like receptor G1 as a marker to distinguish terminal effector cells from memory precursors, we found that despite their diverse cell fates both subsets possessed remarkably similar gene expression profiles and functioned as equally potent killer cells. However, only the memory precursors were capable of making IL-2 thus defining a novel effector cell that was cytotoxic, expressed granzyme B, and produced inflammatory cytokines in addition to IL-2. This effector population then differentiated into long-lived protective memory T cells capable of self-renewal and rapid re-call responses. Mechanistic studies showed that cells that continued to receive antigenic stimulation during the later stages of infection were more likely to become terminal effectors. Importantly, curtailing antigenic stimulation towards the tail-end of the acute infection enhanced the generation of memory cells. These studies support the decreasing potential model of memory differentiation and show that the duration of antigenic stimulation is a critical regulator of memory formation Experiment Overall Design: An important question in memory development is understanding the differences between effector CD8 T cells that die versus effector cells that survive and give rise to memory cells. In this study we provide a comprehensive phenotypic, functional and genomic profiling of terminal effectors and memory precursors, towards better understanding the generation of these subsets. The two effector subsets were FACS purified during the early expansion phase (Days 4-5 post-infection) and extensively analyzed for their phenotypic (eg. CD127, CD62L, CD27, Bcl-2, Granzyme B, etc.) and functional properties (cytokine production, cytotoxicity, homeostatic proliferation, recall proliferation), and gene expression profiles (by genome-wide microarray analyses). Mechanistic studies involving the extent of proliferation and duration of antigen stimulation on memory differentiation potential of effectors were also performed using adoptive transfer techniques.

Project description:In response to acute infection CD8 T cells differentiate into effector cells capable of clearing the antigen. While the transcriptional and functional changes have previously been studied little is known of the epigenetic modifications that accompany this differentiation process. To gain insights into CD8 T cell effector differentiation and the role of epigenetics, we mapped DNA methylation by MeDIP-seq in naive CD8 T cells and day 8 effector CD8 T cells that are induced following an acute infection. We identified hundreds of thousands of differentially methylated regions (DMRs). Promoter DNA methylation inversely correlated with gene expression and DMRs were enriched for functional transcription factor binding sites. These data indicated that DNA methylation is dynamic during CD8 T cell differentiation and provide a map of possible regulatory regions important in this process.

Project description:We compared migratory DCs in draining mediastinal lymph node after intranasal administration of different vaccine adjuvants based on CTA1 subunit of cholera toxin. The goal was to determine different characteristics of dendritic cells subsets after pro-inflammatory vs tolerogenic adjuvant. We had 3 groups: CTA1-DD (pro- inflammatory), CTA1(R7K)-DD (tolerogenic) and PBS to define DC which migrate to LN. All vaccine constructs included 3Ea peptide to allow for sorting of DC which took up the vaccine.

Project description:The transcription factor BATF is required for Th17 and TFH differentiation. Here, we show that BATF also has a fundamental role in regulating effector CD8+ T cell differentiation. BATF-deficient CD8+ T cells show profound defects in effector expansion and undergo proliferative and metabolic catastrophe early after antigen encounter. BATF, together with IRF4 and Jun proteins, binds to and promotes early expression of genes encoding lineage-specific transcription-factors (T-bet and Blimp-1) and cytokine receptors, while paradoxically repressing genes encoding effector molecules (IFNg and granzyme B). Thus, BATF amplifies TCR-dependent transcription factor expression and augments inflammatory signal propagation but restrains effector gene expression. This checkpoint prevents irreversible commitment to an effector fate until a critical threshold of downstream transcriptional activity has been achieved. This is an examination of 5 different transcription factors (TFs) with 5 different histone modifications in effector CD8+ T cells. Two of the TFs (BATF and IRF4) and the histone modifications were replicated. Appropriate control sequence files for ChIP input, IgG ChIP, and Total H3 are also included.
