Project description:Chronic infections and cancers induce CD8+ T cell exhaustion, but within this exhausted CD8+ T cell pool, a self-renewing, stem-like subset known as progenitor CD8+ T (TPRO) cells play a crucial role in maintaining long-term immunity. These TPRO cells exhibit stem-like characteristics, including quiescence, multipotency, and self-renewal, which are the cardinal features of memory T cells. However, the mechanisms that preserve their stem-like properties under chronic antigen stimulation remain unclear. In this study, we identified that SATB1 as a shared feature is highly expressed in both TPRO and memory CD8+ T cells. While the role of SATB1 in stem-like CD8+ T cells remains unknown, its function as epigenetic regulator in promoting quiescence in hematopoietic stem cells led us to hypothesize that SATB1 plays a pivotal role in regulating the stemness of TPRO and memory CD8+ T cells. To test this hypothesis, we employed CRISPR-mediated gene editing to delete Satb1 gene specifically in CD8+ T cells. Upon chronic LCMV infection, we found that SATB1-deficient CD8+ T cells failed to maintain TPRO subset with enhanced transition towards terminally differentiated cells. Similarly, the SATB1 deficiency in acute viral infection impaired the formation of memory CD8+ T cells. Mechanistically, our multi-omic assays revealed that SATB1 regulates the chromatin accessibility and transcriptional activities of stemness-associated genes, such asTcf7, Bach2,andMyb. Overall, our results underscore the critical role of SATB1 in maintaining the transcriptional and epigenetic features of stem-like CD8+ T cells, shedding light on the previously unappreciated regulatory mechanisms that sustain the stemness of antigen-specific CD8+ T cells.

Project description:Cytotoxic T-cell immunity in response to chronic infection and cancer is sustained by a self-renewing population known as the progenitor CD8+ T (TPRO) cells. These TPRO cells exhibit stem-like characteristics, including quiescence, multipotency, and self-renewal, which are the cardinal features of memory T cells. However, the mechanisms that sustain their stem-like properties under chronic antigen stimulation remain unclear. In this study, we identified SATB1 as a shared feature that is specifically enriched in both TPRO and memory CD8+ T cells. While the roles of SATB1 in stem-like CD8+ T cells remain unknown, its function as an epigenetic regulator in promoting quiescence in hematopoietic stem cells led us to hypothesize that SATB1 plays a pivotal role in regulating the stemness of TPRO and memory CD8+ T cells. To test this hypothesis, we employed CRISPR-mediated gene editing to delete the Satb1 gene specifically in CD8+ T cells. During chronic LCMV infection, we found that SATB1-deficient CD8+ T cells failed to maintain the TPRO subset and instead showed an enhanced transition toward terminally differentiated cells. Similarly, SATB1 deficiency during acute viral infection impaired the formation of memory CD8+ T cells. Mechanistically, our multi-omic assays revealed that SATB1 regulates the chromatin accessibility, transcriptional activities, and genomic architecture of stemness-associated genes, such as Tcf7, Bach2, and Myb. Overall, our results underscore the critical role of SATB1 in maintaining the transcriptional and epigenetic features of stem-like CD8+ T cells, shedding light on the previously unappreciated regulatory mechanisms that sustain the stemness of antigen-specific CD8+ T cells.

Project description:CD8 T cells normally differentiate from resting naïve T cells into function effector and then memory CD8 T cells following acute infections. During chronic viral infections, however, virus-specific CD8 T cells often become exhausted. We used microarrays to examine the gene expression differences between naive, effector, memory and exhausted virus-specific CD8 T cells following lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus infection. Experiment Overall Design: Three or four independent samples were sorted by flow cytometry for each cell type (naive, effector, memory and exhausted) virus-specific CD8 T cells. RNA was extracted and hybridized to Affymetrix microarrays.

Project description:Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) are now recognized as a heterogeneous population in self-renewing and differentiation capabilities. However, fundamental mechanisms governing the heterogeneity remain uncertain. We here show that special AT-rich sequence-binding protein 1 (SATB1), a global chromatin organizer, is involved in the mechanisms. Analyzing hematological lineage-restricted SATB1 knock out mice proved that SATB1 is indispensable for both self-renewal and normal differentiation of adult HSCs. Using SATB1/Tomato knock-in mice, we subdivided HSCs according to SATB1 intensity. Culture experiments and RNA-sequencing revealed essential differences between SATB1- and SATB1+ HSCs regarding lineage potential.
