Understanding Heterogeneity of Human Bone Marrow Plasma Cell Maturation and Survival Pathways by Single Cell Analyses [scRNA-Seq]

ABSTRACT: Human bone marrow (BM) plasma cells are heterogeneous, ranging from newly arrived antibody-secreting cells (ASC) to long-lived plasma cells (LLPC). We provide single cell transcriptional resolution of 17,347 BM ASC from 5 healthy adults. Fifteen clusters were identified ranging from newly minted ASC (cluster 1) expressing MKI67 and high MHC Class II that progressed to late clusters 5-8 through intermediate clusters 2-4. Additional clusters included IgM-predominant ASC of likely extra-follicular origin; IFN-responsive; and high mitochondrial activity ASC. Late ASCs were distinguished by differences in G2M checkpoints, MTOR signaling, distinct metabolic pathways, CD38 expression, and utilization of TNF-receptor superfamily members. They mature through two distinct paths differentiated by the degree of TNF signaling through NFKB. This study provides the first single cell resolution atlas and molecular roadmap of LLPC maturation, thereby providing insight into differentiation trajectories and molecular regulation of these essential processes in the human BM microniche. This information enables investigation of the origin of protective and pathogenic antibodies in multiple diseases and development of new strategies targeted to the enhancement or depletion of the corresponding ASC.

ATAC-seq analysis of human blood and bone marrow antibody-secreting cell subsets

Project description:Antibody-secreting cells (ASC) circulate after vaccination and infection and migrate to the bone marrow (BM) where a subset known as long-lived plasma cells (LLPC) persist and secrete antibodies for a lifetime. The mechanisms of how circulating ASC become LLPC is not well elucidated. Here, we show that human early-minted blood ASCs have distinct morphology, transcriptomes, and epigenetics compared to human BM LLPC. Compared to blood ASC, BM LLPC have decreased nucleus/cytoplasm ratio but increased endoplasmic reticulum and numbers of mitochondria. Additionally, LLPC acquire transcriptional and epigenetic differences in multiple cellular pathways that include apoptosis. Upregulation of the anti-apoptotic genes MCL1, BCL2, BCL-XL while simultaneously downregulation of pro-apoptotic genes HRK1, CASP3, and CASP8 occurs in LLPC. Consistent with the decrease in gene expression, pro-apoptotic gene loci are less accessible in LLPC. In contrast, anti-apoptotic gene expression is increased but is not always accompanied by changes in accessibility. Importantly, we show that early-minted blood ASCs undergo morphological and transcriptional changes that make these cells resemble ex vivo BM ASCs, suggesting that the BM microniche at least in part promotes LLPC maturation. Overall, our study demonstrates that early-minted blood ASC in the BM microniche must undergo morphological, transcriptional, and epigenetic changes to mature into apoptotic-resistant LLPC.

SLE Antibody-Secreting Cells Are Characterized by Enhanced Peripheral Maturation and Survival Programs [AIRR]

Project description:Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disease characterized by multiple autoantibodies, some of which are present in high titers in a sustained, B cell-independent fashion consistent with their generation from long-lived plasma cells (LLPC). Active SLE displays high numbers of circulating antibody-secreting cells (ASC). Understanding the mechanisms of generation and survival of SLE ASC would contribute important insight into disease pathogenesis and novel targeted therapies. We studied the properties of SLE ASC through a systematic analysis of their phenotypic, molecular, structural, and functional features. Our results indicate that in active SLE, relative to healthy post-immunization responses, blood ASC contain a much larger fraction of newly generated mature CD19-CD138+ASC similar to bone marrow (BM) LLPC. SLE ASC were characterized by morphological and structural features of premature maturation. Additionally, SLE ASC express high levels of CXCR4 and CD138, and molecular programs consistent with increased longevity based on pro-survival and attenuated pro-apoptotic pathways.Notably, SLE ASC demonstrate autocrine production of APRIL and IL-10 and experience prolonged in vitro survival. Combined, our findings indicate that SLE ASC are endowed with enhanced peripheral maturation, survival and BM homing potential suggesting that these features likely underlie BM expansion of autoreactive PC.

Recruitment of plasma cells from follicular and extrafollicular immune reactions to the bone marrow II

Project description:Bone marrow plasma cells (BMPC) are the correlate of humoral immunity, consistently releasing antibodies into the bloodstream. It remains unclear if BMPC reflect different activation environments or maturation of their precursors. Here we define human BMPC heterogeneity and track the recruitment of antibody-secreting cells (ASC) from SARS-CoV-2 vaccine immune reactions to the bone marrow (BM). Trajectories based on single-cell transcriptomes and repertoires of peripheral and BM ASC reveal sequential colonisation of BMPC compartments. In activated B cells, IL-21 suppresses CD19 expression, indicating that CD19low-BMPC are derived from follicular, while CD19high-BMPC originate from extrafollicular immune reactions. In primary immune reactions, both CD19low- and CD19high-BMPC compartments are populated. In secondary immune reactions, most BMPC are recruited to CD19high-BMPC compartments, reflecting their origin from extrafollicular reactivations of memory B cells. A pattern also observed in vaccinated-convalescent individuals and upon diphtheria/tetanus/pertussis recall-vaccination. Thus, BMPC diversity reflects the evolution of a given humoral immune response.

A Temporal Switch in the Germinal Center Determines Differential Output of Memory B and Plasma Cells

Project description:There is little insight into or agreement about the signals that control differentiation of memory B cells (MBC) and long-lived plasma cells (LLPC). By performing BrdU pulse-labeling studies, we found that MBC formation preceded the formation of LLPC in an adoptive transfer immunization system, which allowed for a synchronized Ag-specific response with homogeneous Ag-receptor, yet at natural precursor frequencies. We confirmed observations in wild type (WT) mice and extended them with germinal center (GC) disruption experiments and variable region gene sequencing. We thus show that the GC response undergo a temporal switch in its output as it matures, revealing that the reaction engenders both MBC subsets with different immune effector function and, ultimately, LLPC at largely separate points in time. These data demonstrate the kinetics of the formation of the cells that provide stable humoral immunity and therefore have implications for autoimmunity, vaccine development, and for understanding long-term pathogen resistance.

Single cell multi-omic reference atlases of non-human primate immune tissues reveals CD102 as a biomarker for long-lived plasma cells.

Project description:In response to infection or immunization, antibodies are produced that provide protection against re-exposure with the same pathogen. These antibodies can persist at high titers for decades and are maintained by bone marrow-resident long-lived plasma cells (LLPC). However, the durability of antibody responses to immunization varies amongst vaccines. It is unknown what factors contribute to the differential longevity of serum antibody responses and whether heterogeneity in LLPC contributes to this phenomenon. While LLPC differentiation has been studied extensively in mice, little is known about this population in humans or non-human primates (NHP). Here, we use multi-omic single-cell profiling to identify and characterize the LLPC compartment in NHP. We identify LLPC biomarkers including the marker CD102 and show that CD102 in combination with CD31 identifies LLPC in NHP bone marrow. Additionally, we find that CD102 is expressed by LLPC in mouse and humans. These results further our understanding of the LLPC compartment in NHP, identify biomarkers of LLPC, and provide tissue-specific single cell references for future studies.

Characterization of gene expression in antibody secreting cells

Project description:The CD19 positive antibody secreting cells (ASC) in both bone marrow (BM) have the capacity to provide immune memory in addition to cells traditionally considered long-lived, the CD19-negative BM ASC. We performed flow cytometry (FCM) immunophenotyping, fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) for cell subset isolation, ELISpot assays detecting the isotype of antibody secretion as well as antibodies against vaccine derived antigens, and comparative gene expression analyses of CD19- ASC, CD19+ ASC, CD20- B cells, and CD20+ B cells from BM. The findings may aid in the understanding of the differential cell subsets created through vaccination and lead to improved vaccine strategies and production. FACS sorted tissue B cells and antibody secreting cell subset gene expression.
