Paxbp1 is indispensable for the survival of CD4 and CD8 double-positive thymocytes

ABSTRACT: The lifespan of double-positive (DP) thymocytes is critical for intrathymic development and shaping the peripheral T cell repertoire. However, the molecular mechanisms that control DP thymocyte survival remain poorly understood. Paxbp1 is a conserved nuclear protein that has been reported to play important roles in cell growth and development. Its high expression in T cells suggests a possible role in T cell development. Here, we observed that deletion of Paxbp1 resulted in thymic atrophy in mice lacking Paxbp1 in the early stages of T cell development. Conditional loss of Paxbp1 resulted in fewer CD4+CD8+ DP T cells, CD4 and CD8 single positive (SP) T cells in the thymus, and fewer T cells in the periphery. Meanwhile, Paxbp1 deficiency had limited effects on the CD4-CD8- double negative (DN) or immature single-positive (ISP) cell populations. Instead, we observed a significant increase in the susceptibility of Paxbp1-deficient DP thymocytes to apoptosis. Consistent with this, RNA-Seq analysis revealed a significant enrichment of the apoptotic pathway within differentially expressed genes in Paxbp1-deficient DP cells compared to control DP cells. Together, our results suggest a new function for Paxbp1, which is an important mediator of DP thymocyte survival and critical for proper thymic development.

Gene expression analysis of thymocyte subsets

Project description:Mouse thymocytes can be classified into four major subsets based on expression of CD4 and CD8 co-receptors. CD4-CD8- (double negative, DN) cells become CD4+CD8+ (double positive, DP) cells following productive T cell receptor (TCR) beta chain rearrangement. A small proportion of DP cells are selected through interaction of clonal TCRalpha/beta and MHC self peptide complex expressed on thymic stromal cells. DP cell expressing MHC class I-restricted TCR become CD4-CD8+ cells, which will finally differentiate into cytotoxic T cells, while MHC class II restricted selection generates CD4+CD8- helper lineage T cells. We used microarrays to identify genes important for thymocyte differentiation and lineage determination by profiling gene expression in different thymocyte subsets. Mouse thymocytes were divided into four subsets based on CD4, CD8a, and TCRb expression and purified by flw cytometry. FACS purified DN (CD4-CD8a-TCRb-), DP (CD4+CD8a+), CD4SP (CD4+CD8a-TCRbhi) and CD8SP (CD4-CD8a+TCRbhi) populations were lysed in Trizol, and provided to the Genomics Core Facility of the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC) for quality control, quantification, reverse transcription, labeling and hybridization to MOE430A 2.0 microarray chips (Affymetrix). Arrays were scanned per the manufacturer’s specifications for the Affymetrix MOE430v2 chip.

Histone Deacetylase 3 is required for efficient T cell development

Project description:Hdac3 is an important target of HDAC inhibitors used in the treatment of cutaneous T cell lymphoma. In order to gain an understanding of Hdac3 function in T cells,we deleted Hdac3 from early mouse thymocytes using LCK-Cre. Hdac3 deletion resulted in a loss of single positive thymocytes due to a defect in positive selection at the double positive (DP) stage of thymocyte development. To better characterize this defect, we sorted the DP1 and DP2 populations to for gene expression profiling. Total RNA was extracted from DP1 (GFP+CD4+CD8+CD5loTCRblo) or DP2 (GFP+CD4+CD8+CD5hiTCRbint) thymocytes isolated by FACS from Hdac3+/+ or Hdac3F/F LCK-Cre+ animals. Libraries were constructed from rRNA-depleted total RNA pools to identify altered gene expression in DP populations following Hdac3 deletion.

RNA-seq of Smarca5-deficient CD4/CD8 double-positive thymocytes isolated from 6-week mouse thymi and their comparison with wild-type and TP53-null controls.

Project description:Here we utilized a conditional knock-out mouse model to investigate the role of Smarca5, an ISWI subfamily chromatin remodeling ATPase, during thymocyte development using hCD2-iCre transgene. We did transcriptional profiling of FACS-sorted CD4/CD8 double-positive thymocytes as this thymic population was persistent yet strongly underrepresented in adult 6-week mutant thymi. Controls included age-matched CD4/CD8 double-positive thymocytes from wild-type and tumor suppressor protein Trp53-null mice. For comparison, the Smarca5/Trp53-double-deficient thymocytes included in the experiment were partially rescued upon loss of Trp53.

scRNAseq in Pten enhancer wild-type or deleted thymocytes, enriched for immature thymocyte stages (CD4-CD3-)

Project description:Single cell suspensions of total thymocytes were obtained from Pten enhancer (PE) wild-type or knockout mice. This single-cell suspension was enriched in CD4-CD3- immature thymocyte progenitor cells. CD4-CD3- enriched thymocytes were then mixed 1:1 with single-cell suspensions from total unenriched thymocytes and subsequntly loaded in a 10x Chromium instrument for single-cell RNAseq analyses. Our results revealed Pten levels are signifcantly decreased in CD4-CD8- double negative (DN) thymocytes, CD8+ intermediate single positive (ISP) thymocytes and CD4+CD8+ double positive (DP) thymocytes in PE knockout mice, compared to PE wild-type mice.

LCK-mediated RIPK3 Activation Controls Double-Positive Thymocyte Proliferation and Restrains Thymic Lymphoma by Regulating the PP2A-ERK Axis

Project description:Receptor-interacting protein kinase 3 (RIPK3) is the primary regulator of necroptotic cell death. RIPK3 expression is often silenced in various cancer cells, which suggests that it may have tumor suppressor properties. However, the exact mechanism by which RIPK3 negatively regulates cancer development and progression remains unclear. This report indicates that RIPK3 acts as a potent regulator of homeostatic proliferation of CD4+CD8+ double-positive (DP) thymocytes. Abnormal proliferation of RIPK3-deficient DP thymocytes occurs independently of the well-known role for RIPK3 in necroptosis (upstream of MLKL activation), and is associated with an incidental thymic mass, likely thymic hyperplasia. In addition, Ripk3-null mice developed increased thymic tumor formation accompanied by reduced host survival in the context of a N-ethyl-N-nitrosourea (ENU)-induced tumor model. Moreover, RIPK3 deficiency in p53-null mice promoted thymic lymphoma development via upregulated ERK signaling, which correlated with markedly reduced survival rates. Mechanistically, lymphocyte-specific protein tyrosine kinase (LCK) activates RIPK3, which in turn leads to increases in the phosphatase activity of protein phosphatase 2 (PP2A), thereby suppressing hyper-activation of ERK in DP thymocytes. Overall, these findings suggest that a RIPK3-PP2A-ERK signaling axis regulates DP thymocyte homeostasis and may provide a potential therapeutic target to improve thymic lymphoma therapies.

Transcription profiling of mouse thymic deletion in B10 430B strains

Project description:Microarray analysis of thymic deletion in the B10 mouse strain; The gene expression patterns of thymocytes at the pre-selection stage and undergoing positive selection or negative selection were compared in the C57BL/10-H2k (B10k) strain. In order to sort thymocytes homogenously undergoing positive selection the 3A9 TCRHEL transgenic was used, which directs thymocyte development towards a MHC class II-restricted HEL-reactive lineage. To sort thymocytes homogenously undergoing negative selection, the 3A9 TCRHEL transgenic was crossed to the insHEL transgenic, which expresses HEL under the control of the insulin promoter in the thymic stroma, leading to efficient negative selection at the early single positive (CD4+CD8low) stage. To prepare the samples, thymic cell suspensions from female 6-8 week old B10k mice, either 3A9 TCRHEL or 3A9 TCRHEL x insHEL transgenics, were stained with CD4-FITC, CD69-PE, CD8-PerCP, and 1G12 supernatant (which recognises the 3A9 TCRHEL complex) followed by anti-IgG1-APC, and sorted. Pre-selection cells (from both transgenics) were defined as CD4+CD8+CD69-1G12low. Cells undergoing positive selection (from 3A9 TCRHEL transgenics) or negative selection (from 3A9 TCRHEL x insHEL transgenics) were defined as CD4+CD8lowCD69+1G12high. Experiment Overall Design: Single positive or double positive thymocytes from B10 mice were compared to those from B10 TCRHEL transgenic mice. 3 biological replicaes were used for each of the 4 different groups of thymocytes.
