Project description:Myeloid derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) are an immunosuppressive population of immature myeloid cells found in advanced stage cancer patients and mouse tumor models. We have identified Cd38 gene as potentially playing an essential role in MDSC biology. To determine the diffences between CD38high and CD38 low MDSCs from tumor-bearing mice, we have conducted this microarray. In this dataset, we include the expression data obtained from sorted splenic CD38high CD11b+Gr1+ cells from tumor-bearing L2-Cre;p120f/f mice, compared to CD38low CD11b+Gr1+ cells from the same mice. Using these data, we have detected differential expression of 498 genes . The Nos2 gene was among the genes most upregulated in CD38high MDSCs. 8 total samples were analyzed: 3 pairs of CD38high and CD38 low MDSCs (coming from individual mice), as well a pair of CD38high and CD38low pulled MSDCs (splenocytes from 3 mice were pulled together for sorting to increase yields). Gene expression difference was determined by univariate test (two-sample t-test) with multivariate permutation test (10,000 random permutations). A cut-off p-value of less than 0.001 and minimum 2-fold expression change were used to identify genes with significant expression differences between the two groups.

Project description:The PI3K pathway has emerged as a key regulator of regulatory T cell (Treg) development and homeostasis and is required for full Treg-mediated suppression. To identify new genes involved in PI3K-dependent suppression we compared the transcriptome of WT and p110delta D910A Tregs. Among the genes that were differentially expressed was CD38. Here we show that CD38 is expressed mainly by a subset of Foxp3+CD25+CD4+ T cells originating in the thymus and on Tregs in the spleen. CD38high WT Tregs showed superior suppressive activity and CD38low Tregs failed to upregulate CD73, a surface protein which is important for suppression. However, Tregs from heterozygous CD38+/- mice were unimpaired despite their lower levels of CD38 expression. Therefore, CD38 can be used as a marker for Tregs with high suppressive activity and the impaired Treg function in p110delta D910A mice can in part be explained by the failure of CD38high cells to develop.

Project description:Fresh human breast tumor tissue was dissociated into single cells and viably frozen. Patient samples were annotated as having an ""exhausted"" or ""non-exhausted"" immune environment based on CyTOF characterization of T cell phenotypes (Wagner et al, Cell 2019). 14 samples (7 exhausted, 7 non-exhausted) were selected for scRNA-seq (without prior cell type enrichment) with the goal to compare the two immune environment types and to comprehensively characterize exhaustion-associated features of the tumor microenvironment.

Project description:We performed single cell sequencing analysis of exhausted monocytes generated in vitro through prolonged incubation with high dose LPS. We demonstated that 5-day prolonged stimulation of WT but not TRAM KO monocytes with high dose LPS drastically induced monocyte exhaustion, as reflected in higher levels of inflammatory marker genes such as CD38 and immuno-suppressor genes including PD-L1.

Project description:PD-1 blockade therapy, harnessing the cytotoxic potential of CD8+ T cells, has yielded clinical success in treating malignancies. However, its efficacy is often limited due to the progressive differentiation of intratumoral CD8+ T cells into a hypofunctional state known as terminal exhaustion. Despite identifying CD8+ T cell subsets associated with immunotherapy resistance, the molecular pathway triggering the resistance remains elusive. Given the clear association of CD38 with CD8+ T cell subsets resistant to anti-PD1 therapy, we investigated its role in inducing resistance. Phenotypic and functional characterization, along with single-cell RNA sequencing analysis of both in vitro chronically stimulated and intratumoral CD8+ T cells, revealed that CD38-expressing CD8+ T cells are terminally exhausted. Exploring the molecular mechanism, we discovered that CD38 expression was crucial in promoting terminal differentiation of CD8+ T cells by suppressing TCF1 expression, thereby rendering them unresponsive to anti-PD1 therapy. Genetic ablation of CD38 in tumor reactive CD8+ T cells restored TCF1 levels and improved the responsiveness to anti-PD1 therapy in mice. Mechanistically, CD38 expression on exhausted CD8+ T cells elevated intracellular Ca2+ levels through RyR2 calcium channel activation. This, in turn, promoted chronic AKT activation, leading to TCF1 loss. Knockdown of RyR2 or inhibition of AKT in CD8+ T cells maintained TCF1 levels, induced a sustained anti-tumor response, and enhanced responsiveness to anti-PD1 therapy. Thus, targeting CD38 represents a potential strategy to improve the efficacy of anti-PD1 treatment in cancer.

Project description:Exhausted T cells express multiple co-inhibitory molecules that impair their function and limit immunity to chronic viral infection. Defining novel markers of exhaustion is important both for identifying and potentially reversing T cell exhaustion. Herein, we show that the ectonucleotidse CD39 is a marker of exhausted CD8+ T cells. CD8+ T cells specific for HCV or HIV express high levels of CD39, but those specific for EBV and CMV do not. CD39 expressed by CD8+ T cells in chronic infection is enzymatically active, co-expressed with PD-1, marks cells with a transcriptional signature of T cell exhaustion and correlates with viral load in HIV and HCV. In the mouse model of chronic Lymphocytic Choriomeningitis Virus infection, virus-specific CD8+ T cells contain a population of CD39high CD8+ T cells that is absent in functional memory cells elicited by acute infection. This CD39high CD8+ T cell population is enriched for cells with the phenotypic and functional profile of terminal exhaustion. These findings provide a new marker of T cell exhaustion, and implicate the purinergic pathway in the regulation of T cell exhaustion. CD8+ T cells from subjects with HCV infection were sorted and pelleted and re-suspended in TRIzol (Invitrogen). RNA extraction was performed using the RNAdvance Tissue Isolation kit (Agencourt). Concentrations of total RNA were determined with a Nanodrop spectrophotometer or Ribogreen RNA quantification kits (Molecular Probes/Invitrogen). RNA purity was determined by Bioanalyzer 2100 traces (Agilent Technologies). Total RNA was amplified with the WT-Ovation Pico RNA Amplification system (NuGEN) according to the manufacturer's instructions. After fragmentation and biotinylation, cDNA was hybridized to HG-U133A 2.0 microarrays (Affymetrix).

Project description:We investigated the effects of HIV infection on immune cell exhaustion at the transcriptomic level by analyzing single-cell RNA sequencing of peripheral blood mononuclear cells from four healthy subjects (37,847 cells) and six HIV-infected donors (28,610 cells). We identified nine immune cell clusters and eight T cell subclusters according to their unique gene expression programs; three of these (exhausted CD4+ and CD8+ T cells and interferon-responsive CD8+ T cells) were detected only in samples from HIV-infected donors. An inhibitory receptor KLRG1 was identified in the exhausted T cell populations and further characterized in HIV infected individuals. We identified a HIV-1 specific exhausted CD8+ T cell population expressing KLRG1, TIGIT, and T-betdimEomeshi markers. Ex-vivo antibody blockade of KLRG1 restored the function of HIV-specific exhausted CD8+ T cells demonstrating the contribution of KLRG1+ population to T cell exhaustion and providing an immunotherapy target to treat HIV chronic infection. Analysis of gene signatures also revealed impairment of B cell and NK cell function in HIV-infected donors. These data provide a comprehensive analysis of gene signatures associated with immune cell exhaustion during HIV infection, which could be useful in understanding exhaustion mechanisms and developing new cure therapies.
