Vγ6+ γδ T cells play a critical role in protection against infection by Escherichia coli

ABSTRACT: γδ T cells producing interleukin 17A (IL-17A), which are mainly Vγ4 and Vγ6 subsets, are involved in protection against infection by extracellular bacteria. Using a new Vγ6-specific monoclonal antibody (mAb) (1C10-1F7) which we recently developed, we found that IL-17A+ Vγ6+ γδ T cells increased predominantly in the peritoneal cavity compared with IL-17A+ Vγ4+ γδ T cells during intraperitoneal Escherichia coli infection. The number of IL-17A+ Vγ6+ γδ T cells, which rapidly became CD69+ from CD69-, peaked at 12 h after infection. In vivo treatment with 1C10-1F7 mAb significantly inhibited the accumulation of neutrophils and hampered the resolution of E. coli infection. These results suggest that rapid activation of IL-17A+ Vγ6+ γδ T cells contributed to host defence against E. coli infection.

MHC class II inhibits the generation of IL-17A+ Vγ6 γδ T cells in the thymus at perinatal stage

Project description:TCR γ chain loci of mice have seven variable (Vγ) gene segments (Vγ1, Vγ2, Vγ3, Vγ4, Vγ5, Vγ6, and Vγ7) using the Heilig and Tonegawa nomenclature. Vγ6+ γδ T cells, which develop in the thymus at the perinatal stage, are distributed within the mucosal tissues in the periphery. Vγ6+ γδ T cells are exclusive interleukin (IL)-17 producers among γδ T cells, and Vγ6+ IL-17A+ γδ T (γδT17) cells play important roles in protection against microbial infection and in the pathogenesis of inflammatory diseases, such as colitis and autoimmune diseases. We have previously reported that γδT17 cells develop from the CD4–CD8– (DN)2b stage in the thymus at the prenatal stage in a Bcl11b-dependent manner. However, details of the development of Vγ6+ γδT17 cells remain obscure. To analyze Vγ6+ γδ T cells in detail, we recently developed a monoclonal antibody (mAb; termed 1C10-1F7) specific to mouse Vg6 chain. Use of this mAb revealed that Vγ6+ γδ T cells in 0-day-old thymus were co-localized with medullary thymic epithelial cells (mTECs), which regulate T cell tolerance by self-antigen presentation using major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II. Here, we report that MHC class II in the thymus inhibits the generation of Vγ6+ γδT17 cells.

RNA sequencing of gamma-delta T cell subsets from young and old mice

Project description:Organismal ageing is associated with loss of immune function and higher incidence of cancer. Whether the γδ T cell pool changes upon organismal ageing is not known. In this study we have characterized γδ T cells in peripheral lymph nodes from old and young mice. We found that the γδ T cell pool is severely altered in old mice. The IL-17 producing γδ lineage becomes dominating while IFN-γ producing γδ1 T cells are declining. γδTCR sequencing revealed no collapse in diversity but oligoclonal expansions in Vγ4 γδ17 subsets. Pro-tumourigenic invariant Vγ6 cells are present only in aged lymph nodes, represent the majority of γδ T cells in the tumour, and are associated with faster tumour progression.

Single cell RNA sequencing of Vγ4 and Vγ6 γδT cells from different tissue

Project description:IL17-producing γδ T cells (γδ T17) mainly develop in the prenatal phase and persist as long-living self-renewing effector cell in all kind of tissues. They express polyclonal T-cell receptors (TCR), comprising public Vγ4+ and Vγ6+ TCRs with germline-like rearrangements. In particular, Vγ6+ T cells have recently been found in a variety of tissues including enthesis, gingiva or skin. However, their exchange between tissues and the mechanisms of tissue-specific adaptation and residency remain poorly understood. Here, we profiled Vγ6+ T cells isolated from thymus, peripheral lymph nodes (pLN) and skin through single-cell RNA-seq technology and compared those to Vγ4+ T cells. Our data demonstrated that Vγ6+ T cells formed highly homogenous cell populations that could be separated by tissue-specific gene expression signatures.

TCR signal strength controls thymic differentiation of discrete proinflammatory γδT cell subsetsistinct TCR signal strength requirements in the thymus

Project description:The murine thymus produces discrete γδ T cell subsets making either IFN-γ or IL-17, but the role of the TCR in this developmental process remains controversial. Here we generated a non-transgenic and polyclonal model of reduced TCR expression and signal strength selectively on γδ T cells. Mice haploinsufficient for both CD3γ and CD3δ (CD3DH) showed normal αβ thymocyte subsets but specific defects in γδ T cell development, namely impaired differentiation of IL-17-producing embryonic Vγ6+ (but not adult Vγ4+) γδ T cells and a marked depletion of IFN-γ-producing CD122+ NK1.1+ (Vγ1-biased) γδ T cells throughout life. As result, adult CD3DH mice showed defective peripheral IFN-γ responses and were resistant to experimental cerebral malaria. Thus, strong TCR signaling is required within specific developmental windows with distinct Vγ usage and differential cytokine production by effector γδ T cell subsets.

Meningeal γδ T cells producing IL-17 control synaptic plasticity and cognitive behaviour

Project description:The conventional notion of “immune privilege” of the brain has been revised to accommodate its infiltration, at steady state, by immune cells that participate in normal neurophysiology (Louveau, Trends Immunol 2015; Kipnis science 2016; Filiano, Nat Rev Neurosciences 2017). Surprisingly, such neuroimmune functions have been linked to “pro-inflammatory” cytokines like IL-4 or IFN-α, shown to control behavioural and social cognition (Derecki, JEM 2010; Filiano, Nature 2016). Here we identify a pro-cognitive role for IL-17 in short-term memory that derives from a previously unknown meningeal-resident γδ T cell subset. This was mostly composed of foetal thymic-derived Vγ6+ T cells, found in the meninges at birth and persisting throughout life, where they were strikingly polarized towards IL-17 production. In fact, γδ T cells were the overwhelming source of meningeal IL-17, whereas IFN-γ was mostly provided by T cells. To assess whether the constitutive production of IL-17 by γδ T cells influenced the cognitive performance of mice, we tested TCRδ-/-, IL-17-/- and respective WT littermate control mice in classical learning paradigms. We observed that mice deficient either for γδ T cells or IL-17 displayed impaired short-term memory in the Y maze paradigm, while retaining normal long-term spatial memory in the Morris water maze. A detailed proteomics analysis of the hippocampus provided mechanistic insight into reduced plasticity of the glutamatergic synapses in the absence of IL-17, which associated with impaired Long Term Potentiation (LTP). Conversely, IL-17 enhanced glial cell production of Brain Derived Neurotropic Factor (BDNF), whose exogenous provision rescued the LTP defect of IL-17-/- animals. Altogether, our data demonstrate that foetal-derived γδ T cells populate the brain meninges where they regulate synaptic plasticity and short-term memory through a non-inflammatory IL-17-dependent mechanism.

γδ T cells orchestrate the induction of protective type 2 immunity in neonatal influenza infection

Project description:Influenza infection causes high rates of hospitalization and mortality in infants. γδ T cells are critical for immune responses against pathogens as regulators and effectors, especially in infants, and yet the roles of neonatal γδ T cells in influenza remain to be investigated. Here we report that γδ T cells were protective against mortality associated with neonatal influenza infection. Infection induced the accumulation and activation of γδ T cells, which transiently expressed IL-17a to enhance early IL-33 production by lung epithelial cells via STAT3 phosphorylation. Subsequently, this led to type 2 immune responses with elicited infiltration of ILC2s and Tregs resulting in increased amphiregulin secretion and tissue repair. Loss of γδ T cells did not alter viral clearance or IFN-γ production. Thus, our results identify a specific requirement for γδ T cells in influenza-infected neonates by initiating type 2 immune responses, mediating tissue homeostasis, and promoting lung integrity.

Reduced TCRγδ signal strength engages phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) to drive thymic development of IL-17A-secreting γδ T cells

Project description:Reduced TCRγδ signal strength manifest by constrained Syk activity engages PI3K to maintain expression of key master regulators of the IL-17 program; RORγt and c-Maf, and drive thymic development of IL-17A-secreting γδ T cells (γδ17 cells). Notably, inhibition of PI3K not only abrogates γδ17 cell development, but also permits γδ progenitors to adopt a type-I interferon gene expression signature that identifies a novel CD8(+)Sca-1(+) γδ T cell subset.

IL-17A influences essential functions of the monocyte / macrophage lineage and is involved in advanced murine and human atherosclerosis

Project description:Atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disease. Lesion progression is primarily mediated by cells of the monocyte/macrophage lineage. Interleukin-17A is a pro-inflammatory cytokine, which modulates immune cell trafficking and is involved inflammation in (auto)immune and infectious diseases. But the role of IL-17A still remains controversial. In the current study we investigated effects of IL-17A on advanced murine and human atherosclerosis, the common disease phenotype in clinical care. 26-weeks old apolipoprotein E-deficient (Apoe-/-) mice were fed a standard chow diet and treated either with IL-17A mAb (n=15) or irrelevant immunoglobulin (n=10) for 16 weeks. Furthermore, essential mechanisms of IL-17A in atherogenesis were studied in vitro. Inhibition of IL-17A markedly prevented atherosclerotic lesion progression (P=0.001) by reducing inflammatory burden and cellular infiltration (P=0.01) and improved lesion stability (P=0.01). In vitro experiments showed that IL-17A plays a role in chemoattractance, monocyte adhesion, sensitization of antigen-presenting cells toward pathogen-derived TLR4 ligands. Also, IL-17A induced a unique transcriptome pattern in monocyte-derived macrophages distinct from known macrophage types. Stimulation of human carotid plaque tissue ex vivo with IL-17A induced a pro-inflammatory milieu and up-regulation of molecules expressed by the IL-17A-induced macrophage subtype. We here show for the first time that functional blockade of IL-17A prevents atherosclerotic lesion progression and induces plaque stabilization in advanced lesions in Apoe-/- mice. The underlying mechanisms involve reduced inflammation and distinct effects of IL-17A on monocyte / macrophage lineage. In addition, translational experiments underline the relevance for the human system. Effects of IL-17A on human monocyte-derived macrophages were assessed (n=2 per group).
