Mitochondrial respiration is necessary for CD8 T cell proliferation and cell fate

ABSTRACT: CD8 T cell proliferation and memory formation are linked to changes in metabolism, which has important implications for improving CD8 T cell fitness in therapies against chronic infections and cancer. The mitochondrial electron transport chain (ETC) is essential for antigen-specific CD8 T cell proliferation. Mitochondrial ETC function is linked to the generation of ATP, production of metabolites to sustain proliferation, and signaling molecules including reactive oxygen species (ROS), which determine T cell function and fate. However, it is not fully understood which mitochondrial ETC functions are necessary for CD8 T cell proliferation in vivo. Here we report that impairing mitochondrial complex III function, which diminishes respiration, proton pumping linked to ATP production, and superoxide production, decreases CD8 T cell proliferation and memory formation. CD8 T cells lacking functional mitochondrial complex III also exhibit an exhausted-like phenotype following acute stimulation. The expression of Ciona intestinalis alternative oxidase (AOX), which accepts electrons from coenzyme Q, thus compensating for the loss of mitochondrial complex III function without generating ROS or proton pumping, restores respiration, proliferation and largely prevents the exhausted phenotype in vitro and in vivo. However, AOX did not sustain memory CD8 T cells, suggesting mitochondrial complex III ROS is necessary for optimal memory formation. These findings demonstrate that the primary function of the mitochondrial ETC in CD8 T cells is enabling respiration to sustain proliferation and memory formation as well as to prevent an exhausted phenotype.

Mitochondrial electron transport chain is necessary for NLRP3 inflammasome activation

Project description:The NLRP3 inflammasome is linked to sterile and pathogen-dependent inflammation, and its dysregulation underlies many chronic diseases. Mitochondria have been implicated as regulators of NLRP3 inflammasome through multiple mechanisms including generation of mitochondrial ROS. Here we report that mitochondrial electron transport chain (ETC) complexes I, II, III and V inhibitors all prevent NLRP3 inflammasome activation. Ectopic expression of Saccharomyces cerevisiae NADH dehydrogenase (NDI1) or Ciona intestinalis alternative oxidase (AOX), which can respectively complement the functional loss of mitochondrial complex I or III, without generation of ROS, rescued NLRP3 inflammasome activation in the absence of endogenous mitochondrial complex I or complex III function. Metabolomics revealed phosphocreatine (PCr), which can sustain ATP levels, as a common metabolite that is diminished by mitochondrial ETC inhibitors. PCr depletion decreased ATP levels and NLRP3 inflammasome activation. Thus, mitochondrial ETC sustains NLRP3 inflammasome activation through PCr-dependent generation of ATP but a ROS independent mechanism.

Mitochondria complex III-generated superoxide is essential for IL-10 secretion in macrophages

Project description:Mitochondrial electron transport chain (ETC) function modulates macrophage biology, however, mechanisms underlying mitochondrial ETC control of macrophage immune responses are not fully understood. Here we report that mutant mice with mitochondrial ETC complex III (CIII)-deficient macrophages exhibit increased susceptibility to influenza A virus and LPS-induced endotoxic shock. Cultured bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs) isolated from these mitochondrial CIII-deficient mice released less IL-10 than controls following TLR3 or TLR4 stimulation. Surprisingly, restoring mitochondrial respiration without generating superoxide using alternative oxidase (AOX) was not sufficient to reverse LPS-induced endotoxic shock susceptibility or restore IL-10 release. However, activation of protein kinase A (PKA) rescued IL-10 release in mitochondrial CIII-deficient BMDMs following LPS stimulation. Additionally, mitochondrial CIII deficiency did not affect BMDM responses to interleukin-4 (IL-4) stimulation. Thus, our results highlight the essential role of mitochondrial CIII generated superoxide in the release of anti-inflammatory IL-10 in response to TLR stimulation

Mrj1HA AP-MS in Cryptococcus neoformans

Project description:The opportunistic fungal pathogen Cryptococcus neoformans must adapt to the mammalian environment to establish an infection. Proteins facilitating adaptation to novel environments, such as chaperones, may be required for virulence. In this study, we identified a novel mitochondrial co-chaperone, Mrj1, necessary for virulence in C. neoformans. The mrj1∆ and J-domain inactivated mutants had general growth defects, and were deficient in two major virulence factors, thermotolerance and capsule elaboration. The latter phenotype was associated with cell wall changes and increased capsular polysaccharide shedding. Accordingly, the mrj1∆ mutant was avirulent in a murine model of cryptococcosis. Mrj1 has a mitochondrial localization and co-immunoprecipitated with Qcr2, a core component of complex III of the ETC (Electron Transport Chain). The mrj1 mutants were deficient in mitochondrial functions including growth on alternative carbon sources, growth without iron, and mitochondrial polarization. They were also insensitive to complex III inhibitors and hypersensitive to an alternative oxidase (AOX) inhibitor suggesting that Mrj1 functions in respiration. In support of this conclusion, mrj1 mutants also had elevated basal oxygen consumption rates which were completely abolished by the addition of the AOX inhibitor, confirming that Mrj1 is required for mitochondrial respiration through complexes III and IV. Furthermore, inhibition of complex III phenocopied the capsule and cell wall defects of the mrj1 mutants. Taken together, these results indicate that Mrj1 is required for normal mitochondrial respiration, a key aspect of adaptation to the host environment and virulence.

Complexome profiling of heart mitochondria from mouse expressing alternative oxidase

Project description:Ciona intestinalis alternative oxidase (AOX) is a mitochondrial respiratory enzyme that acts as an alternative electron sink for ubiquinol (reduced quinone) when the cytochrome bc1 complex (complex III) and/or cytochrome c oxidase (complex IV) are inhibited or impaired (El-Khoury et al., 2014). AOX thus enables electron flux through the mitochondrial electron transport chain (ETC) and thereby prevents reverse electron transport from succinate dehydrogenase (complex II) to NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase (complex I) and mitochondrial ROS production, restores redox balance and Krebs cycle activity. As a non-proton-motive enzyme, however, AOX does not directly support ATP production. Previously, a mouse model was generated that despite ubiquitous expression of AOX revealed no deviations from normal physiology and which now is used as model to test mitochondrial disease paradigms (Szibor et al., 2017).

Transcription profiling of mouse naive, effector, memory and exhausted virus-specific CD8 T cells after chronic viral infection

Project description:CD8 T cells normally differentiate from resting naÃ¯ve 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.

Role of IL-17RA in the development of parasite-specific cytotoxic responses during Trypanosoma cruzi infection

Project description:IL-17RA knockout mice presented increased tissue parasitism during T. cruzi infection that correlated with a reduced frequency of parasite-specific CD8+ T cells. Parasite-specific CD8+ T cells from KO mice showed similar proliferation rate but increased mortality and an exhausted phenotype when compared to WT counterparts. We hypothesize that during T. cruzi infection, IL-17RA signaling in CD8+ T cells is required for the regulation of a transcriptional program that prevents accelerated mortality and exhaustion and sustain the development of robust cytotoxic response required for efficient parasite control.

Longitudinal expression data from CD8+ T cells responding to LCMV-Armstrong or LCMV-Clone 13

Project description:During acute viral infections, naïve CD8+ T cells differentiate into effector CD8+ T cells and, after viral control, into memory CD8+ T cells. Memory CD8+ T cells are highly functional, proliferate rapidly upon reinfection and persist long-term without antigen. In contrast, during chronic infections, CD8+ T cells become “exhausted” and have poor effector function, express multiple inhibitory receptors, possess low proliferative capacity, and cannot persist without antigen. To compare the development of functional memory T cells with poorly functional exhausted T cells, we generated longitudinal transcriptional profiles for each. Naive CD44Lo CD8+ T cells were isolated and sorted from uninfected C57BL/6 mice and H2-Db GP33-specific CD8+ T cells were sorted using MHC-I tetramers at d6, 8, 15, and 30 p.i. with either LCMV Arm or LCMV clone 13. RNA from these CD8+ T cells was processed, amplified, labeled, and hybridized to Affymetrix GeneChip MoGene 1.0 st microarrays

Expression of Ciona intestinalis alternative oxidase (AOX) in a mouse model of cardiac ischemia-reperfusion

Project description:The objective of this study was to test how restoration of mitochondrial respiration using AOX affects the development of cardiac ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injuries in C57BL/ 6J mice. AOX transgenic mice have Ciona intestinalis AOX coding sequence knocked into the Rosa26 locus with AOX expression controlled by a CAG promoter as described elsewhere (Szibor et al. (2017) Dis Model Mech 10: 163–171). Consequences of 45 min of cardiac ischemia were studied 3 and 9 weeks after reperfusion in both wild-type and AOX litter mates.

Endothelial-specific mitochondiral complex III KO leads to lung endothelial cell gene deregulation.

Project description:Endothelial cells (ECs) require glycolysis for proliferation and migration during angiogenesis; however, the necessity for the mitochondrial respiratory chain during angiogenesis is not known. Here we report that inhibition of respiratory chain complex III impairs proliferation, but not migration of ECs in vitro by decreasing the NAD+/NADH ratio. To determine whether mitochondrial respiration is necessary for angiogenesis in vivo, we conditionally ablate a subunit of the respiratory chain complex III (QPC) in ECs. Loss of QPC decreases respiration, resulting in diminished EC proliferation, and impairment in retinal and tumor angiogenesis. Loss of QPC does not decrease genes associated with anabolism or nucleotides levels in ECs, but diminishes amino acid levels. Our findings indicate that mitochondrial respiration is necessary for angiogenesis, and that the primary role of mitochondria in ECs is to serve as biosynthetic organelles for cell proliferation.

Transcription profiling by array of CD8 T cells from healthy individuals that express high levals of Programmed Death-1 protein

Project description:T cell dysfunction is an important feature of many chronic viral infections. In particular, it was shown that PD-1 regulates T cell dysfunction during chronic LCMV infection in mice and PD-1 high cells exhibit an intense exhausted gene signature. These findings were extended to human chronic infections such as HIV, HCV and HBV. However, it is not known if PD-1 high cells of healthy humans have the traits of exhausted cells. In this study, we provide a comprehensive description of phenotype, function and gene expression profiles of PD-1 high versus PD-1 low CD8 T cells in the peripheral blood of healthy human adults as following: 1) The percentage of naive and memory CD8 T cells varied widely in the peripheral blood cells of healthy humans and PD-1 was expressed by the memory CD8 T cells. 2) PD-1 high CD8 T cells in healthy humans did not significantly correlated with the PD-1 high exhausted gene signature of HIV specific human CD8 T cells or chronic LCMV specific CD8 T cells from mice. 3) PD-1 expression did not directly affect the ability of CD8 T cells to secrete cytokines in healthy adults. 4) PD-1 was expressed by the effector memory (TEM) compared to ‘terminally differentiated effector’ (TEMRA) CD8 T cells. 5) Finally, an interesting inverse relationship between CD45RA and PD-1 expression was observed. We used highly purified PD-1 high and PD-1 low from six healthy adult individuals and naive CD8 T cell populations from four of those individuals for gene expression studies
