IL-27 produced during acute malaria infection regulates Plasmodium-specific memory CD4+ T cells

ABSTRACT: Malaria infection elicits both protective and pathogenic immune responses, and IL-27 is a critical cytokine that regulate effector responses during infection. Here, we identified a critical window of CD4+ T cell responses that is targeted by IL-27. Neutralization of IL-27 during acute infection with Plasmodium chabaudi expanded specific CD4+ T cells, which were maintained at high levels thereafter. In the chronic phase, Plasmodium-specific CD4+ T cells in IL-27-neutralized mice consisted mainly of CD127+KLRG1- and CD127-KLRG1+ subpopulations that displayed distinct cytokine production, proliferative capacity and are maintained in a manner independent of active infection. Single cell RNA-seq analysis revealed that these CD4+ T cell subsets formed independent clusters that express unique Th1-type genes. These IL-27-neutralized mice exhibited enhanced cellular and humoral immune responses and protection. These findings demonstrate that IL-27, which is produced during the acute phase of malaria infection, inhibits the development of unique Th1 memory precursor CD4+ T cells, suggesting potential implications for the development of vaccines and other strategic interventions.

Divergent metabolic programs control two populations of MAIT cells that protect the lung

Project description:Although mucosal associated invariant T (MAIT) cells provide rapid, innate-like responses, they are not pre-set and memory-like responses have been described for MAIT cells following infections. The importance of metabolism for controlling these responses, however, is unknown. Following pulmonary immunization with a Salmonella vaccine strain, mouse MAIT cells expanded as separate CD127-Klrg1+ and CD127+Klrg1- antigen-adapted populations that differed for their transcriptome, function and localization in lung tissue. These populations remained altered from steady-state for months as stable, separate MAIT cell lineages with enhanced effector programs and divergent metabolism. CD127+ MAIT cells engaged in an energetic, mitochondrial metabolic program, which was critical for their maintenance and IL-17A synthesis. This program was supported by high fatty acid uptake and mitochondrial oxidation and relied on highly polarized mitochondria and autophagy. After vaccination, CD127+ MAIT cells protected mice against Streptococcus pneumoniae infection. In contrast, Klrg1+ MAIT cells had dormant, but ready-to-respond mitochondria and depended instead on Hif1a-driven glycolysis. They responded vigorously to cytokines and participated in protection from influenza virus. These metabolic dependencies may enable tuning of memory-like MAIT cell responses for vaccinations and immunotherapies.

Transcriptional profiling of CD4+ T cells activated in murine malaria.

Project description:CD4+ T cells are critical for defense against the Plasmodium parasites that cause malaria. To better understand CD4+ T cell effector mechanisms during malaria, we performed microarray analysis of CD4+ T cells from naïve and infected mice. Comparison of activated (CD44 hi CD62L lo) CD4+ T cells from infected mice to bulk CD4+ T cells from naïve mice revealed a subset of genes that were upregulated by infection with Plasmodium chabaudi. These results help generate a more complete picture of CD4+ T cell function in malaria.

PD-1 blockade potentiates neoadjuvant chemotherapy in NSCLC via increasing CD127+ and KLRG1+ CD8 T cells

Project description:The combination of PD-1 blockade with neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) has achieved unprecedented clinical success in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) compared to NAC alone, but the underlying mechanisms by which PD-1 blockade augments the effects of chemotherapy remain incompletely elucidated. Single-cell RNA sequencing was performed on CD45+ immune cells isolated from surgically resected fresh tumor tissues of seven NSCLC patients receiving NAC or neoadjuvant pembrolizumab and chemotherapy (NAPC). Multiplex fluorescent immunohistochemistry was performed on paired FFPE tissues before and after NAC or NAPC from 65 resectable NSCLC patients, and results were validated with GEO dataset. NAC resulted in an increase only of CD20+ B cells, whereas NAPC increased the infiltration of CD20+ B cells, CD4+ T cells, CD4+CD127+ T cells, CD8+ T cells, CD8+CD127+ and CD8+KLRG1+ T cells. Synergistic increase in B and T cells promotes favorable therapeutic response after NAPC. Spatial distribution analysis discovered that CD8+ T cells and their CD127+ and KLRG1+ subsets were in closer proximity to CD4+ T/CD20+ B cells in NAPC versus NAC. GEO dataset validated that B-cell, CD4, memory and effector CD8 signatures correlated with therapeutic responses and clinical outcomes. The adding of PD-1 blockade to NAC promoted anti-tumor immunity through T and B cells recruitment in the tumor microenvironment and induced tumor-infiltrating CD8+ T cells skewed toward CD127+ and KLRG1+ phenotypes，which may be assisted by CD4+ T cells and B cells. Our comprehensive study identified key immune cell subsets exerting anti-tumor responses during PD-1 blockade therapy and that may be therapeutically targeted to improve upon existing immunotherapies for NSCLC.

Whole transcriptome sequencing of splenic influenza-specific CD8+ T cells in wt and Notch1/2ko mice

Project description:To more specifically determine whether the TEC program is controlled by Notch, we generated molecular definitions of TECs and MPCs by whole transcriptome sequencing of sorted KLRG1-CD127+ and KLRG1+CD127- H-2 Db-NP specific CD8+ T cell populations from wild-type mice. These definitions were used to analyze data derived from RNAseq of splenic H-2 Db-NP+CD8+ T cells from WT and Notch1-2-KO mice 10 days post-infection with A/HKx31.

scRNA-seq + TCR-seq of mouse polyclonal CD4+ T cells prior to and after re-infection.

Project description:Naturally-acquired immunity to blood-stage malaria is associated with several effector CD4 + T subsets including germinal centre (GC) Tfh, Th1 and Tr1 cells. Children in malaria-endemic regions can experience repeated Plasmodium infections over short periods of time; yet the effect of reinfection on multiple co-existing effector and memory subsets remains unclear. Here, we tracked antigen-experienced polyclonal CD4+ T cells during Plasmodium re-infection in mice using scRNA-seq/TCR-seq.

Transcriptome and Epigenome Characterization of Long Term Trained Immunity in Cotrolled Human Malaria Model [RNA-seq]

Project description:Innate immune memory responses (also termed ‘trained immunity’) have been described in monocytes after BCG vaccination and after stimulation in vitro with microbial and endogenous ligands such as muramyl dipeptide, β-glucan, oxidized LDL, and MSU crystals. Whether clinical infections are also capable of inducing a trained immunity phenotype has not been studied. We evaluated whether Plasmodium falciparum infection can induce innate immune memory by assessing monocyte epigenetic, transcriptional and functional (cytokine production) programs from five volunteers undergoing controlled human malaria infection. During acute infection monocytes produced lower amounts of inflammatory cytokines upon secondary stimulation, but 36 days after malaria infection they produced significantly higher IL-6 and TNF-α in response to various stimuli. Furthermore, transcriptomic and epigenomic data analysis revealed a clear reprogramming of monocytes after malaria infection. Plasmodium challenge induces a long-term deposition of H3K4me3 at the promoter regions of several inflammatory genes of monocytes, these changes remaining stable for several weeks after infection. These findings demonstrate an epigenetic basis of trained immunity in the model of controlled in vivo human malaria infection.

Transcriptional profiling and immunophenotyping show sustained activation of blood monocytes in subpatent Plasmodium falciparum infection.

Project description:Objectives: Malaria, caused by Plasmodium infection, remains a major global health problem. Monocytes are integral to the immune response yet, their transcriptional and functional responses in primary Plasmodium falciparum infection and in clinical malaria are poorly understood. Methods: The transcriptional and functional profile of monocytes were examined in controlled human malaria infection with P. falciparum blood-stages and in children and adults with acute malaria. Monocyte gene expression and functional phenotypes were examined by RNA-sequencing and flow cytometry at peak-infection and compared to pre-infection or at convalescence in acute malaria. Results: In subpatent primary infection, the monocyte transcriptional profile was dominated by an interferon (IFN) molecular signature. Pathways enriched included type I IFN signalling, innate immune response, cytokine-mediated signalling. Monocytes increased TNF and IL-12 production upon in vitro toll-like receptor stimulation, and increased IL-10 production upon in vitro parasite restimulation. Longitudinal phenotypic analyses revealed sustained significant changes in the composition of monocytes following infection, with increased CD14+CD16- and decreased CD14-CD16+ subsets. In acute malaria, monocyte CD64/FcγRI expression was significantly increased in children and adults, while HLA-DR remained stable. Although children and adults showed a similar pattern of differentially expressed genes, the number and magnitude of gene expression change was greater in children. Conclusions: Monocyte activation during subpatent malaria is driven by an IFN molecular signature with robust activation of genes enriched in pathogen detection, phagocytosis, antimicrobial activity and antigen presentation. The greater magnitude of transcriptional changes in children with acute malaria suggest monocyte phenotypes may change with age or exposure.

Transcription profiling of human peripheral blood mononuclear cell gene expression patterns in presymptomatic and clinically apparent malaria

Project description:Using genome-wide expression profiles from persons either experimentally challenged with malaria-infected mosquitoes or naturally-infected with Plasmodium falciparum malaria, we present details of the transcriptional changes that occur with infection and that are either commonly shared between subjects with pre-symptomatic and clinically apparent malaria or that distinguish these two groups. Our findings confirm and extend aspects of the earliest responses to malaria infection at the molecular level and which may be informative in elucidating how innate and adaptive immune responses may be modulated in different stages of infection. Experiment Overall Design: Compared samples from patients with naturally acquired malaria infection to those from volunteers in a challenge model vaccine trial.
