Antigen cross-presentation at single-cell resolution

ABSTRACT: Antigen cross-presentation by dendritic cells (DCs) to CD8+ cytotoxic T cells (CTLs) is a key step in the immunological cascade. Although the overall sequence of events at DC synapses has been studied at the level of entire tissues, the molecular dynamics of cross-presentation, CTL activation and reprogramming at the level of individual cellular interactions remain incompletely understood. Studying direct physical interactions between cells presents greater challenges than analysing isolated individual cells separately. Previous approaches have relied on antibody-based methods, limiting the discovery of novel ligand-receptor interactions at the transcriptome-wide level. Here, we investigate the molecular and temporal changes characteristic of DC maturation and synapses in two steps: i) We first analyse the transcriptomes of single DCs over time as they uptake ovalbumin peptide, and discovered that foreign antigen uptake increases DC susceptibility to viral infection. ii) We then coculture these primed DCs with ovalbumin-specific OT1 CTLs and capture real-time transcriptomic profiles of single DCs, CTLs, and intentional DC-CTL doublets. Comparative analyses highlight the role of Rab and SNARE proteins in antigen cross-presentation. The methodology developed in this study provides a high-throughput, low-barrier approach to investigate the dynamic molecular basis in various cellular communication systems.

Machine-learning Directed Conversion of Glioblastoma to Dendritic Cell-like Antigen Presenting Cells as Cancer Immunotherapy

Project description:Here, we report the development and application of a machine-learning precision method to identify cell fate determinants (CFD) that specifically reprogram GBM into induced antigen-presenting cells with DC-like functions (iDC-APC). In murine GBM models, iDC-APCs acquired DC-like morphology, regulatory gene expression profile and functions, including phagocytosis, direct presentation of endogenous antigens, and, especially, vigorous cross presentation of exogenous antigens comparable to natural DCs to prime naïve CD8+ CTLs, a hallmark DC function critical for anti-tumor immunity.

Tumor-derived CDC37 inhibits antigen cross-presentation in dendritic cells and impairs anti-tumor immunity in breast cancer

Project description:Tumor mutational burden (TMB), usually representing high immunogenicity, could not always predict treatment response of immune checkpoint blockade (ICB). Here, we showed that defective antigen cross-presentation in type 1 conventional dendritic cells (cDC1) was responsible for lacking tumor-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) patients. Mechanistically, tumor cytosolic CDC37, shuttled via extracellular vesicles (EVs) into the endosomes of intratumor DCs, inhibited antigen cross-presentation by locking antigen binding to HSP90 and precluding their translocation from endosomes to cytoplasm. CDC37 knockdown in tumor cells or inhibiting CDC37/HSP90 interaction in DCs efficiently promoted antigen translocation and enhanced their cross-presentation, which improved ICB therapeutic responses. Clinically, high tumor CDC37 expression was associated with low infiltration of antigen-specific CTLs and poor ICB efficacy in TNBC patients. Therefore, tumor EV-shuttled CDC37 locks antigen/chaperone interaction and impairs antigen cross-presentation in DCs. Moreover, targeting CDC37 is promising to enhance anti-tumor immunity and reverse ICB resistance.

Increased antigen cross-presentation but impaired cross-priming after activation of PPARÎ³

Project description:Increased antigen cross-presentation but impaired cross-priming after activation of PPARÎ³ is mediated by up-regulation of B7H1 Dendritic cells (DCs) are able to take up exogenous antigens and present antigen-derived peptides on MHC class I molecules, a process termed cross-presentation. The mannose receptor (MR), an endocytic receptor expressed on a variety of antigen-presenting cells (APCs), has been demonstrated to target soluble antigens exclusively towards cross-presentation. In this study, we investigated the role of the murine nuclear receptor peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor Î³ (PPARÎ³), a ligand-activated transcription factor with immunomodulatory properties, in MR-mediated endocytosis and cross-presentation of the model antigen ovalbumin (OVA). We could demonstrate both in vitro and in vivo that activation of PPARÎ³ resulted in increased MR expression, which in consequence led to enhanced MR-mediated endocytosis and elevated cross-presentation of soluble OVA. Concomitantly, activation of PPARÎ³ in DCs induced up-regulation of the co-inhibitory molecule B7H1, which, despite enhanced cross-presentation, caused an impaired activation of naive OVA-specific CD8+ T cells and the induction of T cell tolerance. These data provide a mechanistic basis for the immunomodulatory action of PPARÎ³ which might open new possibilities in development of therapeutical approaches aimed at the control of excessive immune responses, e.g. in T cell-mediated autoimmunity.

Compound screen identifies inhibitor of apoptosis proteins (IAP) antagonist as an inducer of T cell proliferation after cross-presentation by dendritic cells (Human)

Project description:Cross-presentation of tumor antigens by dendritic cells (DCs) is crucial to prime and (re-) stimulate CD8+ T cells. This process is important in initiating and maintaining an anti-tumor response. Here, we show that tumor presence of conventional type 1 DCs (cDC1), a subtype that excels in cross-presentation, correlates with response to neoadjuvant immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) in melanoma. This led us to hypothesize that patients failing to respond to ICB could benefit from enhanced cross-presentation of tumor antigens. We therefore established a cross-presentation assay to screen over 5,500 compounds for enhancers of DC cross-presentation using induced T cell proliferation as readout. We identified 145 enhancers, including AZD5582, an antagonist of inhibitor of apoptosis proteins (IAPs) cIAP1, cIAP2 and XIAP. AZD5582 treatment led to DC activation of the non-canonical nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kB) pathway, enhanced antigen import from endolysosomes into the cytosol and increased expression of genes involved in cross-presentation. Furthermore, it upregulated expression of CD80, CD86, MHC class II, CD70 and secretion of TNF by DCs. This enhanced DC activation and maturation program was observed also in tumor-bearing mice upon AZD5582 treatment, culminating into an increased frequency of systemic tumor antigen-specific CD8+ T cells. Our results merit further exploration of AZD5582 to increase antigen cross-presentation for improving the clinical benefit of ICB in unfavorable patients.

Modular expression analysis reveals functional conservation between human Langerhans Cells and mouse cross-priming dendritic cells

Project description:Characterization of functionally distinct Dendritic Cell (DC) subsets in mice has fueled interest in whether analogous counterparts exist in humans. Transcriptional modules of coordinately expressed genes were utilized for defining shared functions between the species. Comparing modules derived for four human skin DC subsets, and modules derived from the Immunological Genome Project database for all mouse DC subsets, revealed that human Langerhans Cells (LCs) and the mouse XCR1+CD8α+CD103+ DCs shared the Class I-mediated antigen processing and cross-presentation transcriptional modules that, however, were not seen in mouse LCs. Furthermore, human LCs were enriched in a transcriptional signature specific to the blood cross-presenting CD141/BDCA-3+ DCs, the proposed equivalent to mouse CD8α+ DCs. Consistent with our analysis, LCs were highly adept at inducing primary CTL responses. Thus, our study suggests that the function of LCs may not be conserved between mouse and human and supports human LCs as an especially relevant therapeutic target. RNA from sorted populations was purified using TRIzol. RNA was processed, amplified, labeled and hybridized at Washington University Core Facility (GTAC) with Illumina HumanHT-12 v4 Expression BeadChip. Data were background subtracted and quantile normalized.

Real-time quantitative PCR analysis of mouse dendritic cells treated with Ac4ManNAz or PBS

Project description:Dendritic cell (DC) vaccine was among the first FDA-approved cancer immunotherapies, but has been limited by the modest cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) response and therapeutic efficacy. Here we report a facile metabolic labeling approach that enables targeted modulation of adoptively transferred DCs for developing enhanced DC vaccines. We show that metabolic glycan labeling can reduce the membrane mobility of DCs, which activates DCs and improves the antigen presentation and subsequent T cell priming property of DCs. Metabolic glycan labeling itself can enhance the antitumor efficacy of DC vaccines. In addition, the cell-surface chemical tags (e.g., azido groups) introduced via metabolic glycan labeling also enable in vivo conjugation of cytokines onto adoptively transferred DCs, which further enhances CTL response and antitumor efficacy. Our DC labeling and targeting technology provides a new strategy to improve the therapeutic efficacy of DC vaccines, with minimal interference upon the clinical manufacturing process.

Spatiotemporal changes of the phagosomal proteome in dendritic cells in response to LPS stimulation

Project description:Dendritic cells (DCs) are professional phagocytes that use innate sensing and phagocytosis to internalize and degrade self as well as foreign material, such as pathogenic bacteria, within phagosomes. These intracellular compartments are equipped to generate antigenic peptides that serve as source for antigen presentation to T cells initiating adaptive immune responses. Nonetheless, the phagosomal proteome of DCs is only partially studied, in particular in response to inflammatory cues. The phagosomal proteome is highly dynamic as it changes during phagosome maturation, when phagosomes sequentially interact with endosomes and lysosomes. In addition, the activation status of the phagocyte can modulate the phagosomal composition and is able to shape phagosomal functions. In this study, we determined spatiotemporal changes of the proteome of DC phagosomes during their maturation and compared resting and lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated bone marrow-derived DCs by label-free, quantitative mass spectrometry. Ovalbumin-coupled latex beads were used as phagocytosis model system and revealed that LPS-treated DCs show decreased recruitment of proteins involved in phagosome maturation, such as subunits of the vacuolar proton ATPase, cathepsin B, D, S and RAB7. In contrast, those phagosomes were characterized by an increased recruitment of proteins involved in antigen cross-presentation, e.g. different subunits of the proteasome and MHC I molecules, tapasin etc., confirming increased antigen presentation efficacy in those cells. In addition, we identified several phagosomal proteins that were not previously associated with phagosomal functions and reveal a novel role for immune-responsive gene 1 (IRG1) in phagocytic uptake of particles in resting DCs.

Specific requirement of the p84/p110γ complex of PI3Kγ for antibody-activated, inducible cross-presentation in murine type 2 DCs

Project description:Cross-presentation by MHCI is optimally efficient in type 1 dendritic cells (DC) due to their high capacity for antigen processing. However, through specific pathways, other DCs, such as type 2 DCs and inflammatory DCs (iDCs) can also cross-present antigens. FcγR-mediated uptake by type 2 DC and iDC subsets mediates antibody-dependent cross-presentation and activation of CD8+ T cell responses. Here, we identify an important role for the p84 regulatory subunit of PI3Kγ in mediating efficient cross-presentation of exogenous antigens in otherwise inefficient cross-presenting cells, such as type 2 DCs and GM-CSF-derived iDCs. We show that FcγR-mediated cross-presentation on type 2 and iDCs depends on the enzymatic activity of the p84/p110γ complex of PI3Kγ, which controls the activity of the NADPH oxidase NOX2 and ROS production in murine spleen type 2 DCs and GM-CSF-derived iDCs. In contrast, p84/p110γ is largely dispensable for cross-presentation by type 1 DCs. These findings suggest that PI3Kγ-targeted therapies, currently considered for oncological practice, may interfere with the ability of type 2 DCs and iDCs to cross-present antigens contained in immune complexes.
