Epigenetic profiling reveals developmental traits of adult thymus-derived Vγ4+ γδ T cells

ABSTRACT: Recent advances in next-generation sequencing technologies elucidated gene regulatory networks and TCR signaling molecules underlying functional differentiation into γδ1 and γδ17 cells that now provide valid resources to define developing CD24+ γδ, γδ1 and γδ17 cells. The γδ1 cell subsets express key transcription factors of cytotoxicity and IFNγ-production, such as Tbx21 (encoding T-bet) and Eomes, as well as natural killer receptor (NKRs). Development of γδ17 cells is favorable in the early life period, regulated by Notch signaling and a network of transcriptional regulators including cMaf, Sox13, Blk, and Rorc that are essential for functional differentiation. However, detailed knowledge about molecular programs of Vγ4 cells, including their potential to become γδ1 or γδ17 cells during adult thymus development, is lacking. Here we employed transcriptional and epigenetic analysis of Vγ4 cells under steady-state conditions and after induction of de novo T cell development from adult thymus precursor cells.

Transcription profiling of mouse SOX13 mutants to identify Sox13 regulated genes in CD4+CD8+ double positive thymocytes

Project description:ab and gd T cells originate from a common, multi-potential precursor population in the thymus, but the molecular mechanisms regulating this lineage fate decision process are unknown. We have identified Sox13 as a gd-specific gene in the immune system. Using Sox13 transgenic mice, we show that SOX13 promotes gd T cell development while opposing ab T cell differentiation. Conversely, mice deficient in Sox13 expression exhibited impaired development of gd T cells, but not ab T cells. One mechanism of SOX13 function is the inhibition of WNT/TCF signaling, suggesting that differential WNT/TCF activity is an essential parameter for this binary cell fate choice. Experiment Overall Design: CD4+CD8+ double positive thymocyte subsets were sorted by FACS using total pooled thymocytes from minimum of two mice and immediately lysed in Trizol. Comparison groups in each experiment were DP thymocytes from Sox13 transgenic mice and wild type B6 littermate controls. Gene expression profiling was performed according to the manufacturerâ??s protocol (Affymetrix). Labeled cRNA (from total RNA) was generated and applied to Affymetrix Mu11K(A and B) (expt 1) or muU74Av2 (expt 2) microarrays. Results were analyzed using Microarray Analysis Software v4 and v5 (Affymetrix).

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.

Unexpected Role for the B cell-specific Src Family Kinase Blk in the Development of IL-17-Producing gamma/delta T Cells

Project description:The Ag receptors on alpha/beta and gamma/delta T cells differ not only in the nature of the ligands that they recognize but also in their signaling potential. We hypothesized that the differences in alpha/beta - and gamma/delta TCR signal transduction were due to differences in the intracellular signaling pathways coupled to these two TCRs. To investigate this, we employed transcriptional profiling to identify genes encoding signaling molecules that are differentially expressed in mature alpha/beta and gamma/delta T cell populations. Unexpectedly, we found that B lymphoid kinase (Blk), a Src family kinase expressed primarily in B cells, is expressed in gamma/delta T cells but not in alpha/beta T cells. Analysis of Blk-deficient mice revealed that Blk is required for the development of IL-17-producing gamma/delta T cells. Furthermore, Blk is expressed in lymphoid precursors and, in this capacity, plays a role in regulating thymus cellularity during ontogeny. Naive alpha/beta and gamma/delta T cells isolated from mouse lymph nodes and purified by negative selection were compared using MOE430 2.0 GeneChip.

Essential functions of the transcription factors TCF1 and SOX13 in gdT cell development (Sox13hi and Sox13lo)

Project description:Innate-like gd T effector subsets are exported from the thymus as “memory-like” cells prewired for rapid, specialized function. Previously, we showed that emergent gd subsets distinguished by TCRg and TCRd usage in the fetal and adult thymus possess distinct global transcriptomes and the subset-specific combinatorial expression of High Mobility Group box transcription factors (HMG TFs) shown as a primary determinant of gd effector differentiation. While the detailed mechanism of HMG TFs cooperativity and counter-regulations are not fully understood, a key feature for IL-17 producing gd T effectors (Tgd17) is predicted to be context-dependent interactions between SOX13 and TCF1 that result in diversified target gene regulation. More SOX13 allow more TCF1 dockings on DNA. TCF1 chromatin occupancy in the Tgd17 gene cluster (V2 set) mimics when the amount of SOX13 is enhanced like the Sox13 transgenic system. Globally 75% of SOX13 binding is overlapped with TCF1 binding and V2 set-specifically 85% of SOX13 targets are overlapped with TCF1 targets. Mostly V2 sets are H3K4me3 (79%) and the genome wide analysis between TCF1 and SOX13 indicate cooperative and active SOX13-dependent-TCF1-modulations on V2 sets.

Gene expression profiling in BCR-ABL expressing LSCs and BCR-ABL-BLK expressing LSCs

Project description:Using BCR-ABL-induced chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) as a disease model for leukemia stem cells (LSCs), we showed that BCR-ABL down-regulates the B lymphoid kinase (Blk) gene in leukemia stem cells in CML mice and that Blk functions as a tumor suppressor in LSCs and suppresses LSC function. Inhibition of this Blk pathway accelerates CML development, whereas increased activity of the Blk pathway delays CML development. To identify the pathways in which Blk regulates function of LSCs, we performed a comparative DNA microarray analysis using total RNA isolated from non-BCR-ABL-expressing Lin-Sca-1+c-Kit+, BCR-ABL- and BCR-ABL-Blk expressing LSCs. This analysis revealed a large group of candidate genes that exhibited changes in the levels of transcription in the Blk expressing LSCs, and uncovered the molecular mechanisms by which Blk suppresses LSCs and CML development. Bone marrow cells were transduced with GFP, BCR-ABL-GFP or BCR-ABL-Blk-GFP, followed by transplantation into recipient mice. Fourteen days after transplantation, bone marrow cells were isolated and LSCs were sorted by FACS for isolation of total RNA for DNA microarray analysis.

Deciphering the regulatory landscape of fetal and adult gd T-cell development at single-cell resolution

Project description:Gamma delta T (gdT) cells with distinct properties develop in the embryonic and adult thymus and have been identified as critical players in a broad range of infections, antitumor surveillance, autoimmune diseases and tissue homeostasis. Despite their potential value for immunotherapy, differentiation of gdT cells in the thymus is incompletely understood. Here, we establish a high-resolution map of gdT cell differentiation from the fetal and adult thymus using single-cell RNA-sequencing. We reveal novel sub-types of immature and mature gdT cells and identify an unpolarized thymic population which is expanded in the blood and lymph nodes. Our detailed comparative analysis reveals remarkable similarities between the gene networks active during fetal and adult gdT cell differentiation. By performing a combined single-cell analysis of Sox13, Maf and Rorc knockout mice, we demonstrate sequential activation of these factors during IL-17-producing gdT cell (gdT17) differentiation. These findings substantially expand our understanding of gdT cell ontogeny in fetal and adult life. Our experimental and computational strategy provides a blueprint for comparing immune cell differentiation across developmental stages.
