Eomes identifies thymic precursors of self-specific memory-phenotype CD8+ T cells

ABSTRACT: Unprimed mice harbor a substantial population of "memory-phenotype" CD8+ T cells (CD8-MP cells) that exhibit hallmarks of activation and innate-like functional properties. Due to the lack of faithful markers to distinguish CD8-MP cells from bona fide CD8+ memory T cells, the developmental origins and antigen specificities of CD8-MP cells remain incompletely defined. Using deep T cell receptor (TCR) sequencing, we found that the TCRs expressed by CD8-MP cells are highly recurrent and distinct from the TCRs expressed by naive-phenotype CD8+ T cells. CD8-MP clones exhibited reactivity to widely expressed self-ligands. T cell precursors expressing CD8-MP TCRs upregulated the transcription factor Eomes during maturation in the thymus, prior to induction of the full memory phenotype, suggestive of a unique program triggered by recognition of self-ligands. Moreover, CD8-MP cells infiltrate oncogene-driven prostate tumors and express high densities of PD-1, suggesting a potential role in anti-tumor immunity and response to immunotherapy.

RNA-sequencing of three murine memory CD8 T cell subsets: IL-7Rα+KLRG1- , IL-7Rα+KLRG1+, and IL-7Rα-KLRG1+

Project description:The goal of this study is to characterize the transcriptional profile of three memory CD8 T cell subsets: IL-7Rα+KLRG1- (memory precursors, MP), IL-7Rα+KLRG1+ (KLRG1+ MP) and IL-7Rα-KLRG1+ (terminal effectors, TE).

Exogenous IL-2 delays the generation of memory precursor cells and is essential for the generation of memory cells with increased effector functions

Project description:To investigate the impact of paracrine IL-2 signals on memory precursor (MP) cell differentiation., we activated CD8 T cell in vitro in the presence or absence of exogenous IL-2 (ex-IL-2). We assessed the memory differentiation of activated T cells by transfer into virus-infected mice. Both conditions generated CD8 T cells that participate in the ongoing immune response and gave rise to similar memory cells. Conversely, when transferred into a naive host, T cells activated with ex-IL-2 generated a higher frequency of memory cells displaying increased functional memory traits. Single-cell RNA-seq analysis indicated that without ex-IL-2, cells rapidly acquire a MP signature, while in its presence they adopted an effector signature. This was confirmed at the protein level and in a killing assay. Overall, ex-IL-2 delays the transition into MP cells, allowing the acquisition of effector functions that become imprinted in their progeny. These findings may help to optimize the generation of therapeutic T cells.

TLR4 ligands LPS and MPLA differentially regualte effector and memory CD8 T cell differentiation

Project description:Here we implemented a simple dendritic cell (DC)-mediated immunization approach to study the effects of commonly used adjuvants, Toll like receptor (TLR) ligands, on effector CD8 T cell differentiation and memory T cell development. To our surprise, we found that the TLR4 ligand LPS was far more superior to other TLR ligands in generating memory CD8 T cells upon immunization. LPS boosted clonal expansion similar to the other adjuvants, but fewer of the activated CD8 T cells died during contraction, generating a larger pool of memory cells. Intriguingly, monophosphoryl lipid A (MPLA), another TLR4 ligand, enhanced clonal expansion of effector CD8 T cells, but also promoted their terminal differentiation and contraction; thus, fewer memory CD8 T cells formed and MPLA-primed animals were less protected against secondary infection compared to those primed with LPS. Furthermore, gene expression profiling revealed that LPS-primed effector cells displayed a stronger pro-memory gene expression signature, whereas the gene expression profile of MPLA-primed effector cells had aligned closer with terminal effector CD8 T cells. Mice that contain small number of P14 CD8 T cells were immunized with DC-33 either alone or in combination with LPS or MPLA. KLRG1loIL-7Rhi MPECs were purified by FACS sort, and mRNA isolated from MPECs was subjected to whole-genome expression profiling using Illumina MouseWG-6 v2.0 Expression BeadChip.

Tissue-Resident Memory T Cells in Human Kidney Transplants have alloreactive potential

Project description:The extent to which tissue-resident memory T (TRM) cells in transplanted organs possess alloreactivity is uncertain. This study investigates the alloreactive potential of TRM cells in kidney explants from four patients who experienced severe acute rejection leading to graft loss. Alloreactive T-cell receptors (TCRs) clones were identified in pre-transplant blood samples through mixed lymphocyte reactions, followed by single-cell RNA and TCR sequencing of the proliferated recipient T cells. Subsequently, these TCR clones were traced in the TRM cells of kidney explants, which were also subjected to single-cell RNA and TCR sequencing. The proportion of TRM cells expressing an alloreactive TCR in the four kidney explants varied from 0% to 9%. Notably, these alloreactive TCRs were predominantly found among CD4+ and CD8+ TRM cells with an effector phenotype. Intriguingly, alloreactive clones were present not only in recipient-derived TRM cells but also in donor-derived TRM cells, constituting up to 4% of the donor population, suggesting the presence of self-reactive TRM cells. Overall, our study demonstrates that T cells with alloreactive potential present in the peripheral blood prior to transplantation can infiltrate the kidney transplant and adopt a TRM phenotype.

Gene expression data from Terminal Effector and Memory Precursor CD8+ T cells during infection

Project description:Differentiation of naive T cells into effector and memory populations following infection is mediated by a network of transcription factors (TF) that translate environmental signals into regulatory circuits involving TF expression and binding activity as well as chromatin accessibility. To delineate the transcriptional difference between effector subsets, we performed microarray on TE and MP subsets and found that TE and MP subsets reflect transcriptional differences between effector and memory CD8+ T cells

Transcription profiling of human CD8 naive (TN), central memory (TCM), effector memory (TEM), and effector memory RA (TEMRA) T cells

Project description:Memory T cells are heterogeneous in terms of their phenotype and functional properties. We investigated the molecular profiles of human CD8 naïve (TN), central memory (TCM), effector memory (TEM), and effector memory RA (TEMRA) T cells using gene expression microarrays and phospho-protein-specific intracellular flow cytometry. We demonstrate that TCM have a gene expression and cytokine signaling signature that lies between that of TN and TEM or TEMRA cells, whereas TEM and TEMRA are closely related. Our data define the molecular basis for the different functional properties of central and effector memory subsets. We show that TEM and TEMRA cells strongly express genes with known importance in CD8 T cell effector function. In contrast, TCM are characterized by high basal and cytokine-induced STAT5 phosphorylation, reflecting their capacity for self-renewal. Altogether, our results distinguish TCM and TEM/TEMRA at the molecular level and are consistent with the concept that TCM represent memory stem cells.

MHC II regulation of CD8+ T cell tolerance and implications in autoimmunity and cancer immunotherapy

Project description:Previous studies suggested the presence of MHC class II-reactive CD8+ T cells in humans and animals, but little is known about their identity, development and function. In this study, we discovered a group of CD8+ T cells bearing T cell receptors (TCRs) reactive to both MHC I and II molecules in MHC II-deficient mice. We cloned their TCRs and analyzed their development and function. In wild type animals, thymocytes bearing those TCRs were purged by negative selection. In the absence of MHC II, they developed into CD8+ T cells and entered the peripheral T cell pool. When encountering MHC II in the periphery, they underwent robust activation and proliferation, attacked self-tissues, and caused lethal autoimmune diseases. In adoptive T cell therapy, CD8+ T cells bearing those TCRs were able to efficiently control MHC II-expressing tumors. This study opens the door to investigate dual-reactive CD8+ T cells, their development and selection in the thymus, and the peril and promise when their normal development and selection are compromised.

Expression data from human naïve (TN), stem cell memory (TSCM), central memory (TCM) and effector memory (TEM) CD8+ T cells

Project description:An early-differentiated CD8+ memory T cell subset with stem cell-like properties (TSCM) can be identified within the naïve-like T cell population by the expression of CD95/Fas. Based on experiments including exon- and gene-level expression analysis, we provide evidence that this subset of antigen-specific cells represents an early precursor of conventional central (TCM) and effector (TEM) memory CD8+ T cells with enhanced self-renewal capacity and proliferative potential. We identified 900 genes differentially expressed between major T cell subsets defined along with memory T cell commitment. Based on the analysis of these genes, CD95+ naïve T cells (TSCM) cluster closer to the CD8+ T memory compartment than to classical (CD95-) naïve T (TN) cells, and display an intermittent phenotype between classical TN and TCM cells in terms of all major T cell differentiation markers analyzed.

CD8+ T cell mediated lung inflammation

Project description:Role for naturally occurring CD4+CD25+Foxp3+ regulatory T cells (nTregs) in counterbalancing this process. Using a transgenic murine model for autoimmune-mediated lung disease, we demonstrated that, despite pulmonary inflammation, lung-specific CD8+ T cells can reside quiescently in close proximity to self-antigen. Whereas self-reactive CD8+ T cells in the inflamed lung and lung-draining lymph nodes down-regulated the expression of effector molecules, those located in the spleen appeared to be partly antigen-experienced and displayed a memory-like phenotype. Since ex vivo-reisolated self-reactive CD8+ T cells were very well capable to respond to the antigen in vitro, we investigated a possible contribution of nTregs to the immune control over autoaggressive CD8+ T cells in the lung. We isolated antigen-specifc CD8+ T-cells from lungs and bronchial lymphnodes derived from chronic diseased mice (SPC-HAxCL4), healthy control mice (CL4) and acute influenza infected control mice (CL4+IAV) and perormed mRNA expression profiling of isolated CD8+ T cells. Each group represents a pool of at least n=4 animals. CD8+ T cell type comparison; lung disease state analysis
