Inflammation durably imprints memory CD4+ T cells

ABSTRACT: Memory CD4 T cells are critical to human immunity, yet it is unclear if viral inflammation during memory formation has long-term consequences. Here, we compared transcriptional and epigenetic landscapes of Spike (S)-specific memory CD4 T cells in 24 individuals whose first exposure to S was via SARS-CoV-2 infection or mRNA vaccination. Nearly two years after memory formation, S-specific CD4 T cells established by infection remained enriched for transcripts related to cytotoxicity and for interferon-stimulated genes, likely due to a chromatin accessibility landscape altered by inflammation. Moreover, S-specific CD4 T cells primed by infection had reduced proliferative capacity in vitro relative to vaccine-primed cells. Furthermore, the transcriptional state of S-specific memory CD4 T cells was minimally altered by booster immunization and/or breakthrough infection. Thus, these data demonstrate the durable imprint of inflammation on CD4 T cell memory which affected function and may have consequences for long-term immunity.

Memory CD4 T cells help adaptive immunity with minimal immunopathology

Project description:CD4 T cells play critical roles in promoting inflammation and helping immune responses, but knowledge of how memory CD4 T cells are regulated and how they help adaptive immune responses is limited. Using adoptive transfer of virus-specific CD4 T cells, we show that naïve CD4 T cells undergo substantial expansion following viral infection, but can induce lethal TH1-driven inflammation. In contrast, memory CD4 T cells exhibit a biased proliferation of T follicular helper (Tfh) cell subsets that correlate with improved adaptive responses and minimal tissue damage following viral infection. Importantly, our analyses revealed that type I interferon regulates the expansion of naïve CD4 T cells, but does not seem to play a critical role in regulating the expansion of memory CD4 T cells. Moreover, blockade of type I interferon signaling abrogated lethal CD4 T cell inflammation following viral infection. Taken together, these data demonstrate a previously undescribed function for memory CD4 T cells: to help adaptive immunity with minimal harm to the host. These findings are important for rational vaccine design and for improving the safety and efficacy of adoptive T cell therapies against persistent antigens. Primary and memory SMARTA cells were MACS-purified by negative selection (STEMCELL) and then FACS-sorted to 98% purity on a FACS Aria (BD Biosciences) according to congenic marker expression (CD45.1+ for secondary, and CD45.1+ CD45.2+ for primary, CD4 T cell responses).

Expression data from WT and IL-2 secondary CD4 T cell effectors responding towards infuenza A virus infection

Project description:How IL-2 produced by secondary CD4 T cell effectors, derived from resting memory cells, impacts memory CD4 T cell function and survival to memory following antigen re-encounter is unknown. We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression underlying differences between WT and IL-2 deficient secondary CD4 T cell effectors purified from the lung on day 7 following A/PR8/34-OVAII influenza infection. Congenic primed memory DO11.10 TCR trangenic CD4 T cells were sort purifed from the lungs of infected mice on day 7 post infection for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. We sought to obtain only CD4 T cell populations that had entered into the immune response by also sorting and collecting only those cells that had divided at least 5 times by CFSE analysis.

Skin Resident Memory CD4+ T Cells Enhance Protection Against Leishmania Major Infection

Project description:Leishmaniasis causes a significant disease burden worldwide. Although Leishmania-infected patients become refractory to reinfection following disease resolution, effective immune protection has not yet been achieved by human vaccines. While circulating Leishmania-specific T cells are known to play a critical role in immunity, the role of memory T cells present in peripheral tissues has not been explored. Here, we identify a population of skin-resident Leishmania-specific memory CD4+ T cells. These cells produce IFNγ, and remain resident in the skin when transplanted by skin graft onto naïve mice. They function to recruit circulating T cells to the skin in a CXCR3 dependent manner, resulting in better control of the parasites. Our findings are the first to demonstrate that CD4+ TRM cells form in response to a parasitic infection, and indicate that optimal protective immunity to Leishmania, and thus the success of a vaccine, may depend on generating both circulating and skin-resident memory T cells. Two conditions were analyzed. For each condition, four mice were used, resulting in eight samples in total.

CD4+ resident memory T cells dominate immunosurveillance and orchestrate local recall responses

Project description:This study examines the extent to which memory CD4+ T cells share immunosurveillance strategies with CD8+ resident memory T cells (TRM). After acute viral infection, memory CD4+ T cells predominantly utilized residence to survey nonlymphoid tissues, albeit not as stringently as observed for CD8+ T cells. In contrast, memory CD4+ T cells were more likely to be resident within lymphoid organs than CD8+ T cells. Migration properties of memory-phenotype CD4+ T cells in non-SPF parabionts were similar, generalizing these results to diverse infections and conditions. CD4+ and CD8+ TRM shared overlapping transcriptional signatures and location-specific features, such as granzyme B expression in the small intestine, revealing tissue-specific and migration property-specific, in addition to lineage-specific, differentiation programs. Functionally, mucosal CD4+ TRM reactivation locally triggered both chemokine expression and broad immune cell activation. Thus, residence provides a dominant mechanism for regionalizing CD4+ T cell immunity, and location enforces shared transcriptional, phenotypic, and functional properties with CD8+ T cells.

Expression data from primary and secondary CD4 T cell effectors responding towards influenza A virus infection

Project description:How secondary CD4 T cell effectors, derived from resting memory cells, differ from primary cells, derived from naïve precursors, and how such differences impact recall responses to pathogens is unknown. We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression underlying differences between primary and secondary CD4 T cell effectors purified from the spleen, dLN, and lung on day 7 following A/PR8/34 influenza infection. Congenic naïve or in vivo influenza primed memory HNT TCR trangenic CD4 T cells were sort purifed from the spleens, dLNs, and lungs of infected mice on day 7 post infection for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. We sought to obtain only CD4 T cell populations that had entered into the immune response by also sorting and collecting only those cells that had divided at least 5 times by CFSE analysis.

Proliferative Receptor Binding Domain (RBD)-specific CD4+ T cells correlate with neutralizing antibody levels after natural SARS-CoV-2 infection and are induced following vaccination

Project description:Long-term immunity to SARS-CoV-2 infection, comprising neutralizing antibodies and T cell-mediated immunity, in a very large majority of the population, is required to reduce the current pandemic. We have investigated in detail the association between memory CD4 and CD8 T cells in recovered COVID-19 subjects, and their levels of neutralizing antibodies.The results show that RBD-specific memory CD4 T cells were particularly variable, and up to half of recovered individuals lacked these CD4 T cells and had much lower neutralizing antibody titres. Conversely, study of additional subjects identified as having low neutralizing antibody titres had very low levels of RBD-specific CD4 T cells. Furthermore, at both the protein and transcriptomic levels, these low antibody subjects had spike-specific CD4 T cells with a higher proportion of an inhibitory phenotype, including Foxp3 and CTLA-4, and less effector phenotype with T-bet and cytotoxic granzymes and perforin. Vaccination led to an improvement in RBD-specific memory CD4 T cells and neutralizing antibody titres in these at-risk subjects. Our results suggest that epitopes within the RBD-region should be the particular target of booster vaccines.

Acc1 determines memory potential of individual CD4+ T cells by regulating de novo fatty acid biosynthesis [RNA-seq]

Project description:Immunological memory is central to adaptive immunity and protection from disease. Changing metabolic demands as antigen-specific T cells transition from effector to memory have been well documented, but the cell-specific pathways and molecules that govern this transition are poorly defined. ACC1 is a rate-limiting enzym in fatty acid biosynthesis. We show that genetic deletion of ACC1 enhanced the formation of CD4+ T cell memory, and that inhibition of ACC1 function enhanced memory T cell formation during parasite infection in mice. ACC1-deficient effector Th cells had similar metabolic signatures to wild-type memory Th cells, and Acaca expression was inversely correlated with a memory gene signature in individual cells. Single cell analysis allowed us to identify a memory precursor-enriched population (CCR7hiCD137lo) present during early differentiation of effector CD4+ T cells. Thus, fatty acid metabolism directs cell fate determination during the generation of memory CD4+ T cells.

RNA expression of reactivated Antigen-specific memory CD4 T cells previously exposed to tolerogenic or immunogenic stimulation

Project description:Activated and memory CD4 T cells play important roles in many autoimmune diseases often acting as upstream co-ordinators of inflammation and tissue destruction. A major therapeutic strategy is to turn off or tolerize these CD4 T cells thereby providing a cure. While much is understood about inducing tolerance in naïve CD4 T cells, little is known about whether or how to induce tolerance in previously activated or memory CD4 T cells. Here, we use RNA-sequencing to investigate the consequences of activating mouse CD4 memory T cells with antigen delivered in the absence of adjuvant, a classic tolerance-inducing strategy for naïve T cells. To examine the long term consequences of exposing memory CD4 T cells to tolerizing signals, we first reactivated them with antigen delivered with (control) or without (experimental) adjuvant, rested the cells and then reactivated them with antigen and adjuvant 5 days prior to isolating RNA for gene expression analysis.
