RNA-seq analysis of IL-17A+/IFNy+ CD8+ and IL-17A+CD4+ T cells from Psoriatic Arthritis Synovial Fluid

ABSTRACT: Psoriatic arthritis is a seronegative polyarticular form of inflammatory arthritis . Genetic analysis implicates a role for both IL-17/23 axis and CD8+ T cells in disease susceptibility. Using RNA-seq we identified differential gene expression between synovial IL-17A+(IFNy+/-) CD8+ T cells compared to IL-17A-IFNy+ CD8+ T cells and IL-17A+CD4+ T cells from the synovial fluid of psoriatic arthritis patients. We find that IL-17A+CD8+ T cells have a transcriptional overlap with IL-17A+CD4+ T cells. Overall we show these IL-17A+ CD8+ T cells have a polyfunctional, pro-inflammatory capacity and are potentially derived from common precursors, shared with IL-17A-CD8+ T cells.

Project description:IL-17A is a pro-inflammatory cytokine that promotes host defense against infections and contributes to the pathogenesis of chronic inflammatory diseases. Dendritic cells (DC) are antigen-presenting cells responsible for adaptive immune responses. Here, we report that IL-17A induces intense remodeling of lipid metabolism in human monocyte-derived DC, as revealed by microarrays analysis. In particular NR1H3/LXR-a and its target genes were significantly upregulated in response to IL-17A. IL-17A induced accumulation of Oil Red O-positive lipid droplets in DC leading to the generation of lipid-laden DC. A lipidomic study established that all the analyzed lipid species, i.e phospholipids, cholesterol, triglycerides, cholesteryl esters were elevated in IL-17A-treated DC. The increased expression of membrane lipid transporters in IL-17A-treated DC as well as their enhanced ability to uptake the fatty acid Bodipy-FL-C16 suggested that lipid uptake was the main mechanism responsible for lipid accumulation in response to IL-17A. IL-17A-induced lipid laden DC were able to stimulate allogeneic T cell proliferation in vitro as efficiently as untreated DC, indicating that IL-17A-treated DC are potently immunogenic. This study, encompassed in the field of immunometabolism, points out for the first time IL-17A as a modulator of lipid metabolism in DC and provides a rationale to delineate the importance of lipid-laden DC in IL-17A-related inflammatory diseases. We used microarrays analysis to understand the impact of IL-17A on human monocyte-derived human dendritic cells. We found overexpression of many genes involved in lipid metabolism in IL-17A-treated dendritic cells compared to untreated dendritic cells.

RNA was extracted from untreated in vitro-generated DC at day 0 (DC, 4 biological replicates ) or DC cultured for 12 days with IL-17A, in the absence or presence of IFN-g (DC-17 and DC-G17, 5 biological replicates)
