Project description:Single-cell RNA sequencing can resolve transcriptional features from individual cells, but techniques capable of resolving the variable regions of B cell receptors (BCRs) – defining features that confer antigen specificity to B cells – remain limited, especially from widely-used 3`-barcoded libraries. Here, we report a method that can recover paired, full-length variable region sequences of BCRs from 3`-barcoded single-cell whole transcriptome libraries. We applied this method to produce accurate, full-length BCR sequences from cDNA of human PBMC generated following the 10x Genomics 3`GEX protocol.

Project description:Survival of all B cells depends on signals from the B-cell receptor (BCR). In BCRnegative B cells the latent membrane protein 2A (LMP2A) of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) replaces this survival signal and might play a role in the development of EBV-positive Hodgkin lymphomas and posttransplantation lymphoproliferative disease. In these BCR-negative cells LMP2A provides a ‘tonic’ signal similar to BCR’s constitutive expression in the absence of antigen in order to maintain activating signaling pathways common to both receptor molecules. In most latently EBV-infected B cells LMP2A and BCR are co-expressed but it is largely unclear what LMP2A contributes with respect to B-cell activation, proliferation and viral latency in these BCR-positive cells. A common model suggests that LMP2A maintains herpesviral latency by blocking BCR-mediated signals but how LMP2A could serve both antithetical ends in BCRnegative and BCR-positive cells is elusive. Our comparative analysis of BCR and LMP2A now indicates that LMP2A is a true BCR mimic that dominates BCR-operated signaling pathways in EBV-infected, BCR-positive cells to provide activation signals, support stable infections in vivo and allow exit from latency. These findings suggest that LMP2A co-opts the situation in anergic B cells, where continuous BCR signaling results in maintenance of the anergic state accompanied by unresponsiveness to acute BCR stimulation. The microarray experiment was used to compare effects of BCR and LMP2A on gene expression regulation. EBV's LMP2A and the human BCR activate similar cellular target genes; some genes are regulated solely by BCR or LMP2A, no gene is counter regulated A 12 chip study using cDNA from three separate 2525 LMP2A knockout LCL cultures and three separate 3696.10 LMP2A:mCD69 LCL cultures; each culture tested before and after 90 min stimulation of the BCR and LMP2A:mCD69, respectively.

Project description:The NR4A family of nuclear receptors are upregulated by acute and chronic antigen stimulation, and play redundant, tolerogenic roles in T and B cells. To bypass their obligate function in the Treg lineage, we generated competitive chimeras with Nr4a1-/-Nr4a3-/- (double knockout or DKO) bone marrow mixed with congenically marked WT bone marrow at a 1:5 ratio. As a result of a defect in Treg production by DKO cells, Treg in mixed chimeras are almost exclusively of WT origin. By contrast, we generate an approximately 1:1 DKO:WT ratio in the peripheral T cell compartment because DKO cells escape negative selection. After reconstitution, we observed pronounced accumulation of anergic DKO CD4 T cells, but a defect in functional tolerance resulting in autoantibody production. Based on these studies and published literature, we hypothesize that the NR4A family regulate TCR-induced transcripts in both naive and anergic CD4 T cells. To identify such targets, we sorted naive and anergic CD4 T cells of either WT or DKO genotype (CD45.1+ or CD45.1-) on the basis of CD73/FR4/CD44 expression from these chimeras directly into RLT buffer. In parallel, we stimulated sorted naive CD4 T cells of each genotype in vitro with plate-bound anti-CD3 and anti-CD28 stimulation for 3 hrs and then generated RLT lysates. We made biological triplicate samples of each condition (naive WT and DKO, naive stimulated WT and DKO, anergic WT and DKO) resulting in 6 different populations x 3 replicates = 18 samples. Samples were subjected to library prep and bulk RNA sequencing to identify DEG.

Project description:We report that a large percentage of thymic B cells undergo class switching intrathymically. Thymic B cell class switching requires cognate T-B interaction. To determine whether B cell specificity was also important for thymic B cell class-switching, we sorted class-switched thymic B cells (CD19+B220+IgM-IgD-), unswitched B cells (CD19+B220+IgM+IgD+) and bulk splenic B cells in 3H9 heavy chain-fixed mice and performed high throughput sequencing analysis of the light chain of these populations. Results of this analysis indicated that class-switched thymic B cells have a distinct repertoire compared with unswitched thymic B cells and splenic B cells. Further reactivity tests indicated that a large part of BCRs enriched in class-switched thymic B cells are autoreactive. These data suggest that autoreactive B cells are selected into class-switched population and expanded in the thymus. Light chain repertoire profiles of class-switched thymic B cells, unswithced thymic B cells and splenic B cells from 3H9 mice were generated by deep sequencing.

Project description:Since few data are available on glycans expressed by human BCRs, we aimed to analyze the Fc glycans of membrane-bound IgG after BCR capture and tryptic digestion by LC-MS. For this purpose, human B-cell lines from Burkitt Lymphoma (Ramos) expressing IgG1-BCRs in the presence or absence of Fc glycans (FcG) were analyzed. The B-cell lines were generated by transduction of the BCR-negative MDL-AID KO cell line with N(297) or mutant Q(297) IgG-BCRs. The BCR sequences used were derived from single-cell sorted human B cells isolated from patients with the autoimmune disease rheumatoid arthritis. Two BCRs were directed towards citrullinated antigens (2G9 and 3F3), while a third BCR was directed against tetanus toxoid (D2). In addition, we analyzed the Fc glycan profile of IgG secreted (sIgG) by human Ramos B cells for comparison.

Project description:B cell tolerance is established using deletion, anergy and receptor editing mediated by secondary recombination but it is unclear why autoreactive B cells choose a tolerance mechanism over another. We identified subgroups of patients with either rheumatoid arthritis or common variable immunodeficiency who presented defects in secondary recombination, which correlated with unusual CD21-/lo naïve B cells in their blood. CD21-/lo B cells were unable to induce calcium flux, get activated or proliferate in response to B cell receptor and/or CD40 triggering, suggesting that these B cells are anergic. Moreover, CD21-/lo B cells are often autoreactive and may express anti-nuclear antibodies. Thus, anergy can be a default tolerance mechanism mainly induced when receptor editing fails to silence developing autoreactive B cells. Experiment Overall Design: RNA was extracted from batch sorted CD19+CD21+CD10-CD27- and CD19+CD21-CD10-CD27- naïve B cells isolated from donors using the Absolutely RNA microprep kit (Stratagene). 100-200 ng of RNA was obtained per sample, and the quality of the purified RNA was assessed by the Bioanalyzer from Agilent. Using the Ovation biotin system kit from Nugen, 30-50ng of RNA was amplified and labeled to produce cDNA. Labeled cDNA was hybridized on chips containing the whole human genome (Human Genome U133 2.0 from Affymetrix). Data from CD21+ and CD21- B cell populations were compared in order to determine the gene signature of the newly described CD21- B cells.
