Joint single-cell transcriptomics and epigenomics analysis reveal key regulators of CAR T cell stemness and antitumor immunity

ABSTRACT: In this study, we revealed the molecular network governing the differentiation of CAR T cells into transcriptionally and epigenetically distinct subsets. Using two mouse cancer models with different sensitivities to CAR T-cell therapy, we showed that CD8+ CAR T cells transitioned from the stem-like to effector-like subset in B-cell ALL but developed into exhausted T cells in the solid tumor. By simultaneously profiling transcriptomic and epigenomic analyses in single cells, we demonstrated that lineage-defining TFs were often controlled by exceptionally high numbers of cis-regulatory elements and regulated distinct chromatin states foreshadowing transcriptional changes during T cell differentiation. Different CAR T-cell subsets were governed by distinct gene regulatory networks with TFs as hubs. We showed that FOXP1 was a hub TF in the stem-like network and promoted the antitumor response and stemness of CAR T cells while limiting their transition to the effector-like subset. In contrast, KLF2, a hub TF in the effector-like network, controlled the lineage choice between effector-like and exhausted subsets by driving the effector program and suppressing the exhaustion program.

Genome-wide maps of Tamoxifen resistance MCF7 cell line

Project description:We report the ER alpha regulatory network of Tamoxifen resistance MCF7 cell line using the Chromatin immunoprecipitated high-throughput sequencing technology (ChIP-seq). By Integrating the gene expression data (previously reported) with the ChIP-seq data, we generated ER alpha regulatory network and pathways. For ER alpha regulatory network, hub TFs with enriched motifs were identified from ER alpha peak together with PolII peaks. We then scan the position weight matrix (PWM) of ER alpha peak region of certain gene to find out the regulatory relationship between hub TF and normal TF. For regulatory pathway, genes were grouped base on their expression value at 4 different time point. Then the hub TF that plays important role in each time point of each group was identified. This study provides a framework for the application of ChIP-seq and gene expression data for the construction of ER alpha regulatory network. 4 different ChIP-seq dataset in Tamoxifen resistance MCF7 cell line

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

Genome-wide maps of histone modifications in CX3CR1+ effector , CX3CR1- Ly108- exhausted, or Ly108+ progenitor CD8 T cells during chronic viral infection.

Project description:During chronic viral infection, pathogen-specifc CD8+ T cells develop into three main phenotypically and functionally distinct subsets: TCF1hi progenitor, PD-1hi exhausted, and recently identied CX3CR1+ cytotoxic effector cells. Although genetic programs governing progenitor and exhausted subset formation have been well-studied, how CX3CR1+ effector CD8+ T cell differentiation is transcriptionally and epigentically regulated remains elusive. In this study, our single cell transcriptomics and epigenetic assays revealed that three subsets of virus-specific cells were governed by distinct gene regulatory networks (GRNs) and epigenetic landscapes. Computational analyses demonstrated a striking similarity between the CX3CR1+ subset and short-live effector cells (SLECs) from acute LCMV infection. Consistently, genetic deletion of T-bet (Tbx21) significantly diminished the formation and function of the CX3CR1+ subset. Importantly, we identify that the transcription factor (TF) BATF is required to maintain a permissive chromatin structure that allows differentiation transition from TCF1+ progenitor to CX3CR1+ effector cells. Intriguingly, haplodificiency of BATF in CD8+ T cells abolished CX3CR1+ effector subset formation. Lastly, we found that BATF directly bound to key genetic regions such as Tbx21 and modulated their enhancer accessibility to facilitate progenitor to CX3CR1+ effector cell transition. These mechanistic insights can be harnessed to overcome T cell exhaustion in treating chronic infections and cancer.

Transcription factors harbor functional RNA-binding domains

Project description:Transcription factors (TFs) orchestrate the gene expression programs that define each cell’s identity, and the canonical TF accomplishes this with two functional domains1–7. The DNA-binding domain interacts with specific genomic sequences, and the effector domain binds coactivators or co-repressors that contribute to transcriptional regulation. We report here that TFs also frequently contain an RNA-binding domain and that this also contributes to gene regulation. Nearly half of TFs in human cells show evidence of RNA-binding and their affinities for RNA are similar to those of well-studied RNA-binding proteins. The RNA-binding sites of TFs have sequence and functional features analogous to the arginine-rich motif of the HIV transcriptional activator Tat8,9. RNA-binding contributes to TF function by promoting the dynamic association of TFs with chromatin. We conclude that the canonical definition of transcription factors is incomplete, and that the ability of many TFs to bind DNA, RNA and protein is fundamental to gene regulation.

A fine kinetic balance of interactions directs transcription factor hubs to genes [Cut and Run]

Project description:Eukaryotic gene regulation relies on the binding of sequence-specific transcription factors (TFs). TFs bind chromatin transiently yet occupy their target sites by forming high-local concentration microenvironments (hubs and condensates) that increase the frequency of binding events. Despite their ubiquity, such microenvironments have been difficult to study in endogenous contexts due to technical limitations. Here, we overcome these limitations and investigate how hubs drive TF occupancy at their targets. Using a DNA binding perturbation to a hub-forming TF, Zelda, in Drosophila embryos, we find that hub properties, including the stability and frequencies of associations to targets, are key determinants of TF occupancy. Our data suggest that hub targeting is driven not just by specific DNA motif recognition, but also by a fine-tuned kinetic balance of interactions between TFs and their co-binding partners.
