Single cell analysis of diverse pathogen responses defines a molecular roadmap for generating antigen-specific immunity


ABSTRACT: The immune system generates pathogen-tailored responses. The precise innate immune cell types and pathways that direct robust adaptive immune responses have not been fully characterized. By using fluorescent pathogens combined with massively parallel single cell RNA-seq, we comprehensively characterized the initial 48 hours of the innate immune response to diverse pathogens. We found that across all pathogens tested, most of the lymph node cell types and states showed little pathogen-specificity. In contrast, the rare antigen-positive cells displayed pathogen-specific transcriptional programs as early as 24 hours after immunization. In addition, mycobacteria activated a specific NK driven IFNγ response. Depletion of NK cells and IFNγ showed that IFNγ initiated a monocyte specific signaling cascade, leading to production of major chemokines and cytokines that promote Th1 development. Our systems immunology approach sheds light on early events in innate immune responses and may help further development of safe and efficient vaccines.
