Project description:Mucosal-Associated Invariant T (MAIT) cells recognize the riboflavin pathway-derived metabolite 5-(2-oxopropylideneamino)-6-d-ribitylaminouracil (5-OP-RU) presented by the MHC-Ib molecule MR1. Both MR1 and the T cell receptor genes used by MAIT cells are

Project description:Mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells are abundant in humans and recognize conserved bacterial antigens derived from riboflavin precursors, presented by the non-polymorphic MHC class I-like molecule MR1. Here, we show via transcriptomic analysis that human MAIT cells are remarkably oligoclonal in both blood and liver, display high inter-individual homology, and exhibit a restricted length CDR3β domain of the TCRVβ chain. We extend this analysis to a second sub-population of MAIT cells expressing a semi-invariant TCR conserved between individuals. Study of CDR3 regions of TCRalpha and beta sequences

Project description:MAIT cells (MAITs) represent an abundant T lymphocyte subset with unique specificity for microbial metabolites presented by the MHC-1b molecule, MR1. MAIT conservation along evolution indicates important, non-redundant functions, but their low frequency in mice has hampered their detailed characterization. Here, we performed a transcriptomic analysis of murine MAITs in comparison with NKT subsets and with mainstream T cells in spleen and peripheral organs of B6-MAIT/CAST mice expressing a Rorc-GFP transgene. MAIT and NKT cells have been FACS-sorted after tetramer staining (MR1:5-OP-RU Tet+ for MAIT, CD1d:PBS57Tet+ for NKT), and 1/17 subsetting based on the expression of Rorc.

Project description:Mucosa-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells recognize microbial-derived riboflavin metabolites presented by the evolutionarily conserved MR1 molecule. Their persistent loss in chronic HIV-1 infection is a significant insult to antimicrobial immune defenses. Here we explore MAIT cell dynamics in the critical acute stages of HIV-1 infection for the first time

Project description:We sought to describe in detail the consequences of MAIT cell activation using a transcriptomic approach to define the basic transcriptome of a MAIT cell in both humans and mice and to determine how this is modulated by activation. Fresh human peripheral blood cells were obtained from three donors. These were cultured for 6 hours with (‘stimulated’) or without (‘unstimulated’) 10 nM 5-OP-RU, magnetically enriched on MR1-tetramer+ cells, and flow-sorted for RNA sequencing of live CD3+TCR Valpha7.2+ MR1-5-OP-RU tetramer+ MAIT cells, and of unstimulated naïve live CD8+CD45RA+ T cells as a comparator cell type. For the murine samples we included within the same sequencing experiment live pulmonary CD3+45.2+19-MR1-5-OP-RU tetramer+ MAIT cells which were magnetically enriched and flow-sorted from the lungs of mice 7 days after infection with 1x104 CFU L. longbeachae (‘acute’), or at least 12 weeks post infection (‘resolution’) or 7 days after a second intranasal infection with 2x104 CFU L. longbeachae in mice that had recovered from infection 12 weeks previously (‘reinfection’). Live CD3+CD45.2+CD19-CD8+CD44-CD62L+ naïve T cells from uninfected mice were used as a comparator cell type.

Project description:We applied a cell population transcriptomics strategy to sorted human memory CD8 T cells to define novel immune signatures of latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI) and understand the phenotype of tuberculosis (TB)-specific T cells. We found a 41-gene signature that could discriminate between memory CD8 T cells from healthy LTBI subjects and noninfected controls. The gene signature was dominated by genes known to be associated with mucosal associated invariant T cells (MAITs) and reflected the lower frequency of MAITs observed in individuals with LTBI. There was no evidence for a conventional CD8 T cell specific signature between the two cohorts. We therefore investigated the MAITs in more detail in these cohorts. Phenotyping based on Vα7.2 and CD161 expression and MR1 tetramers revealed 2 distinct populations of CD8+Vα7.2+CD161+ T cells: MR1 tetramer+ and MR1 tetramer−, both of which had a distinct gene expression profile compared to CD8 memory T cells. Transcriptomic analysis of LTBI vs. noninfected individuals did not reveal significant differences for MR1 tetramer+ cells. However, gene expression of MR1 tetramer− cells showed a very different profile with large inter-individual diversity and a TB-specific signature. This was further strengthened by a more diverse TCR-α and -β repertoire of MR1 tetramer− cells as compared to MR1 tetramer+. Thus, cell population transcriptomics revealed a dominant MAIT signature in CD8 memory T cells that upon detailed investigation provided novel insights into the phenotype of different MAIT populations implicated in tuberculosis.

Project description:Mucosal-Associated Invariant T (MAIT) cells recognize the riboflavin pathway-derived metabolite 5-(2-oxopropylideneamino)-6-d-ribitylaminouracil (5-OP-RU) presented by the MHC-Ib molecule MR1. Both MR1 and the T cell receptor genes used by MAIT cells are under strong evolutionary pressure in mammals, suggesting an important role of 5-OP-RU-specific T cells across species. In humans and mice, MAIT cells acquire distinctive effector functions linked to the expression of the master transcription factor ZBTB16 (PLZF) during thymic development. Conservation of a unique differentiation program in 5-OP-RU-specific T cells from other species is unclear. Here, we used single-cell RNA sequencing to characterize the development of 5-OP-RU-specific T cells in 6 species spanning 110 million years of mammalian evolution. Cross-species comparative analyses revealed a conserved sequence of transcriptional events underlying the maturation of 5-OP-RU-specific thymocytes, marked by the early expression of ZBTB16 in all species. MAIT cells also co-expressed the transcription factors TBX21 (Tbet) and RORC (RORgt) in human, sheep, cattle and opossum. By contrast, Tbet and RORgt were expressed by distinct subsets of MAIT cells in the thymus of rodents, including pet mice and >30 genetically diverse mouse strains, dismissing a laboratory mouse artifact. In mice, RORgt+ MAIT cells further matured in the mesenteric lymph nodes and intestines to acquire a transcriptional program remarkably conserved in MAIT cells from non-rodent species and characterized by co-expression of type 1 and type 17 effector genes, but also genes associated with cytotoxicity and tissue repair. Thus, we define a deeply conserved transcriptional program for 5-OP-RU-specific T cells, which may help understand their functions.
