Distinct features of a peripheral T-helper subset that drives the B-cell response in dengue virus infection

ABSTRACT: Dengue virus-induced humoral immunity can increase the risk of severe disease, but the factors influencing this response are poorly understood. Here, we investigated the contribution of CD4+ T cells to B-cell responses in human dengue-infection. We identified a dominant peripheral PD1+ T-cell subset that accumulated in severe patients and could induce B-cell differentiation via IL21-related pathway. Single-cell RNA-seq analyses was performed to reveal the heterogeneity in PD1+ cells. This subsequently revealed the coexistence of subsets with ‘helper’ (IL21+) or ‘cytotoxic’ characteristics. The IL21+ subset displayed a distinct clonotypic and transcriptomic signature than Tfh-cells and persisted as a memory in lymph-nodes. Notably, we showed that the IL21+ subset seems to majorly drive the extrafollicular B-cell responses in dengue. Our study established the peripheral IL21+ subset as a potential determinant of the humoral response to dengue-virus infection. These findings provide important insights into the T-cell-dependent regulation of humoral responses and can inform the design of effective dengue vaccines.

Human Extrafollicular CD4+ T Helper Cells Help Memory B Cells Produce Immunoglobulins

Project description:Follicular helper T (Tfh) cells are necessary for germinal center B cell maturation during primary immune responses; however, the T cells that promote humoral recall responses via memory B cells are less well defined. We herein characterize a human tonsillar CD4+ T cell subset with this function. These cells are similar to Tfh cells in terms of expression of the chemokine receptor CXCR5 and the inhibitory receptor PD-1, interleukin (IL)-21 secretion, and expression of the transcription factor BCL6; however, unlike Tfh cells that are located within the B cell follicle and germinal center, they reside at the border of the T cell zone and the B cell follicle in proximity to memory B cells, a position dictated by their unique chemokine receptor expression. They promote memory B cells to produce antibodies via CD40 ligand, IL-10, and IL-21. Our results reveal a unique extrafollicular CD4+ T cell subset in human tonsils, which specialize in promoting T cell-dependent humoral recall responses.

A novel CD4+ T cell population expanded in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) blood provides B cell help through IL10 and succinate

Project description:A better understanding of the molecular and cellular factors involved in human plasma cell differentiation will accelerate therapeutic target identification in autoantibody-mediated diseases such as Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE). Here, we describe a novel CXCR3+ PD1hi CD4+ T cell ‘helper’ population expanded in blood and inflamed kidneys of SLE patients. Upon activation, these cells express IFNg and IL10 and display high levels of mitochondrial ROS (mtROS) as the result of reverse electron transfer (RET) fueled by succinate. Furthermore, T cell-derived succinate synergizes with IL10 to provide B cell help. Cells with similar phenotype and function are generated in vitro upon priming naive CD4+ T cells with oxidized mitochondrial DNA (Ox mtDNA)- activated plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) in a PD1-dependent manner. Our results provide a novel mechanism for the initiation and/or perpetuation of extrafollicular humoral responses in SLE.

Transcriptional analysis of human blood CXCR5+ CD4 T cell populations

Project description:The vast majority of currently licensed human vaccines work on the basis of long-term protective antibody responses. Generation of long term humoral immunity is a complex process predominantly dependent on germinal centers and CD4 T cell help to B cells. Follicular helper T cells (Tfh) are the specialized CD4 T cells for B cell help. However, whether such cells develop memory in humans and can be tracked in human blood has been enigmatic. We identified a subpopulation of blood CXCR5+ PD-1+CXCR3- resting CD4 T cells that are most related to Tfh cells of lymphoid tissue by gene expression profile and phenotype. Functional analysis showed that these memory Tfh cells were specialized for helping B cells. Moreover, these cells correlate with a clinically important outcome: development of potent neutralizing antibodies against HIV in HIV+ individuals. CD4 T cells were enriched from fresh blood of 5 normal donors by magnetic beads negative selection. Following enrichment, CD14-CD16-CD19-CD8-CD4+CD45RA- cells from each donor were FACS sorted into the following 5 populations: CXCR5-, CXCR5+PD1+CXCR3-, CXCR5+PD1+CXCR3+, CXCR5+PD1-CXCR3-, and CXCR5+PD1-CXCR3+. The gene expression profile of each cell population was determined.

A novel CD4+ T cell population expanded in SLE blood provides B cell help through IL10 and succinate

Project description:A better understanding of the mechanisms involved in human plasma cell differentiation will accelerate therapeutic target identification in autoantibody-mediated diseases such as Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE). Here, we describe a novel CXCR5- CXCR3+ PD1hi CD4+ T cell ‘helper’ population distinct from follicular helper T cells (Tfh) and expanded in blood and inflamed kidneys of SLE patients. Upon activation, these cells express IFNand high levels of IL10. Additionally, they accumulate high amounts of mitochondrial ROS (mtROS) as the result of reverse electron transport (RET) fueled by succinate. These cells provide potent help to B cells through the synergistic effect of IL10 and succinate. Cells with similar phenotype and function are generated in vitro upon priming naïve CD4+ T cells with oxidized mitochondrial DNA (Ox mtDNA)-activated plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) in a PD1-dependent manner.

Targeting glycolysis reduces infection and dampens inflammation in a host-directed therapy for dengue

Project description:Monocytes are the key mediators of inflammatory responses in virus patients, and are also the only blood cell type that supports productive infection both in vitro and in vivo. In this study, we assessed how dengue infection alters the metabolic response of monocytes and affects ensuing inflammatory mechanisms. Using a glycostress assay, we showed that in vitro infected primary human monocytes by dengue virus and monocytes isolated from thrombocytopenic dengue patients, during critical stage of the disease, had increased glycolysis. Single cell transcriptomics revealed an enhanced expression of interferon-related genes and glycolytic genes in classical and intermediate monocytes of dengue patients with more pronounced thrombocytopenia. Targeting glycolysis by 2-deoxy-glucose (2DG) reduced dengue infection and dampened pro-inflammatory cytokines in monocytes, both in vitro and in mouse models. Collectively, these results suggest that glycolysis could be a possible target for pharmaceutical intervention to regulate pathogenic host responses in dengue.

Genome wide analysis of the host antiviral response to dengue virus infection in primary human monocyte-derived dendritic cells

Project description:Analysis of the host response to dengue virus at gene expression level. The hypothesis tested in the present study was that dengue virus triggers and regulate different pathaway with different kinetics controlling the antiviral, the inflammatory and the apoptotic response in primary human DC. Results provide important information of the response to DC to dengue virus showing that antioxidant genes are early stimulated after denv infection reflecting an early production of reactive oxygen species. Interestingely, we demonstrated that ROS production and antiviral and apoptotic responses intersect since chemical inhibition of ROS impairs antiviral and apoptotic responses in these cells. Total RNA obtained from in vitro dengue infected primary human dendritic cells at 0, 6, 12, 18, 24 hours compared to uninfected cells at time 0

Ribosome profiling analysis of Dengue Virus

Project description:Dengue virus is an + strand RNA virus. We have carried our infections of human cells with Dengue and analyzed the translation, replication, and localization of the Dengue RNA. This allowed for clear definition of the life cycle of the Dengue virus inside a host cell. We also assessed the host response to Dengue virus, finding that a large fraction of the translational response is due to Interferon function. Translational and transcriptional analysis of the cellular response to Dengue virus infection

RNA-seq profiles of germinal center B cells from spleens of wild-type and Il21r-deficient mice after immunization with NP-KLH

Project description:Humoral immune responses require germinal centres (GC) for antibody affinity maturation. Within GC, B-cell proliferation and mutation are segregated from affinity-based positive selection in the dark zone (DZ) and light zone (LZ) substructures, respectively. While IL21 is known to be important in affinity maturation and GC maintenance, here we show it is required for both establishing normal zone representation and preventing the accumulation of cells in G1 cell cycle stage in the GC LZ.
