Gene expression profile of intratumoral Tregs in a FOXP3 humanized mice

ABSTRACT: We have performed a single cell sequencing assay by using DNBelab C high-throughput single-cell RNA-seq system to study intratumoral Treg cells. Treg cells promote tumorigenesis by suppressing immune responses against tumor. FOXP3 protein is the master controller of Treg function. In human, FOXP3 gene produces two isoforms by the alternative splicing of exon 2. However, mouse only produces full-length FOXP3. This study analyzed the gene expression profile of intracellular Treg cells from wild-type mice or Foxp3 humanized mice which produce both full-length and exon 2-skipped FOXP3 protein.

Reprogramming intratumoral Tregs by morpholino-mediated splicing of FOXP3 for cancer immunotherapy

Project description:Regulatory T cells (Tregs) represent a primary barrier to the development of effective anti-tumor immunity. In the clinic, Tregs are a major contributor to the resistance of immune checkpoint blockade (ICB). Preclinical studies have reported complete tumor regression upon Treg depletion in mice. However, systemic depletion of Tregs is detrimental and sometimes lethal as it causes immune-related adverse effects, such as autoimmune diseases. Here, we report that reprogramming Treg functions, by shifting the expression of FOXP3 from its full-length isoform (FOXP3FL) to a short isoform with exon 2 skipped (FOXP3dE2), promotes the tumor-killing activity of T effectors while limiting the adverse effects of Treg depletion. FOXP3dE2 mRNA expression in triple negative breast cancer tissue positively correlates with overall survival of the patients. Mice expressing only the FOXP3dE2 isoform are resistant to the development of various types of tumors, while the littermate wildtype (WT) mice expressing FOXP3FL isoform exhibit significant tumor growth. Intratumoral injection of FOXP3dE2-directing morpholino (dE2 MO) in WT mice markedly increased IFN-.+ CD4 and CD8 T cells in tumors and consequently inhibited the tumor growth. We developed a novel mouse strain with a humanized Foxp3 exon 2 capable of expressing both FOXP3 isoforms through alternative splicing. This mouse strain showed better antitumor immunity than WT mice and dE2 MO treatment can further enhance their antitumor activity. The antitumor activity of dE2 MO was also confirmed using autologous tumor-infiltrating T cells and patient-derived tumor organoids. Taken together, our results suggest that enhancing FOXP3dE2 isoform expression will reprogram tumor infiltrating Tregs and convert these immune suppressive Tregs to helper-like T cells, thus promoting antitumor immunity.

MicroRNA profiling of mouse T regulatory cells (Tregs) reveals miRNA disruption in Tregs leads to uncontrolled autoimmunity

Project description:A new Treg-specific, FoxP3-GFP-hCre BAC transgenic was crossed to a conditional Dicer knock-out mouse strain to analyze the role of microRNAs (miRNA) in the development and function of regulatory T cells (Tregs). Although thymic Tregs developed normally in this setting, the cells showed evidence of altered differentiation and dysfunction in the periphery. Dicer-deficient Treg lineage cells failed to remain stable as a subset of cells down-regulated the Treg-specific transcription factor, FoxP3, while the majority expressed altered levels of multiple genes and proteins (including Neuropilin 1, GITR and CTLA-4) associated with the Treg fingerprint. In fact, a significant percentage of the Treg lineage cells took on a Th memory phenotype including increased levels of CD127, IL-4, and interferon-g. Importantly, Dicer-deficient Tregs lost suppression activity in vivo; the mice rapidly developed fatal systemic autoimmune disease resembling the FoxP3 knockout phenotype. These results support a central role for miRNAs in maintaining the stability of differentiated Treg function in vivo and homeostasis of the adaptive immune system. Experiment Overall Design: Lymph node CD4+YFP+ T cells from FoxP3-GFP-hCre x ROSA26R-YFP Dicerwt/lox (Het) and FoxP3-GFP-hCre x ROSA26R-YFP Dicerlox/lox (KO) mice were isolated by flow cytometry. Triplicate GeneChips were used for each T cell population.

TIGIT+ Tregs

Project description:TIGIT+ Tregs suppress Th1 and Th17 responses while sparing Th2 responses. Analysis of global gene expression of TIGIT+ vs. TIGIT- Tregs from naive mice reveled that TIGIT+ Tregs display an activated phenotype and are enriched for Treg signature genes including the Treg effector molecule Fgl2 which enables them to selectively spare Th2 responses. TIGIT+ and TIGIT- Tregs were sorted from naïve Foxp3-GFP KI mice (pooled spleen and lymph nodes) TIGIT: T cell immunoreceptor with Ig and ITIM domains

Gene profiling of Tregs across inbred strains.

Project description:Gene-profiling of Tregs across inbred strains. There is a wide inter-individual range in the frequency of FoxP3+ Treg cells, but little is known about the underlying genetic or epigenetic mechanisms. We explored this issue accross inbred strains of mice. During this study, we established the gene expression profiles of Treg cells from the various inbred strains of mice. For each inbred strain of mice, CD4+ TCRb+ CD25hi Treg cells (50k) from 9w old male (Jackson laboratory) were double sorted into Trizol. For BM Treg, cells were triple-sorted. Top 50% among CD25high cells were selected to ensure high Foxp3+ purity (over 99%). 2 biological replicates per condition. RNA was amplified, labeled and hybridized to Affymetrix Mouse Gene 1.0 ST Arrays (Expression Analysis).

RNA-seq of expanded human CRISPR/HDR-mediated FOXP3-KO naive Tregs, Cas9 naive Tregs, and conventional T cells

Project description:Treg cell therapy is a promising curative approach for a variety of immune-mediated conditions. CRISPR-based genome editing allows precise insertion of transgenes through homology-directed repair, but its use in human Tregs has been limited. We report an optimized protocol for CRISPR-mediated gene knock-in in human Tregs with high-yield expansion. To establish a benchmark of human Treg dysfunction, we target the master transcription factor FOXP3 in naive and memory Tregs. Although FOXP3-ablated Tregs upregulate cytokine expression, effects on suppressive capacity in vitro manifest slowly and primarily in memory Tregs. Moreover, FOXP3-ablated Tregs retain their characteristic protein, transcriptional, and DNA methylation profile. Instead, FOXP3 maintains DNA methylation at regions enriched for AP-1 binding sites. Thus, while FOXP3 is important for human Treg development, it has a limited role in maintaining mature Treg identity. Optimized gene knock-in with human Tregs will enable mechanistic studies and the development of tailored, next-generation Treg cell therapies.

The splicing isoform Foxp3∆2 differentially regulates tTregs and pTregs homeostasis

Project description:Foxp3 is the master transcription factor for the regulatory T cells (Tregs). Alternative splicing of human Foxp3 results in the expression of two isoforms: the full-length and an exon 2-deleted protein. Here, AlphaFold2 predictions and in vitro experiments demonstrate that the N-terminal domain of Foxp3 inhibits DNA binding by moving toward the C-terminus and that this movement is mediated by exon 2. Consequently, we find Foxp3∆2-bearing tTregs in the peripheral lymphoid organ are less sensitive to TCR due to the enhanced binding of Foxp3∆2 to the Batf promoter and are unsusceptible to IL-2. In contrast, among RORγt+ pTregs in the large intestine, Foxp3∆2 pTregs express much more RORγt-related genes conferring a competitive advantage. Together, our results reveal that alternative splicing of exon 2 generates a constitutively active form of Foxp3, which plays a differential role in regulating tTregs and pTregs homeostasis.

Gene expression profiling of injured skeletal muscle in the presence or absence of CD4+Foxp3+ regulatory T cells (Tregs).

Project description:A comparative analysis of gene expression of injured skeletal muscle from wild-type (Foxp3-DTR-) and Treg-depleted (Foxp3-DTR+) mice showed that Treg cells are critical for effective repair and regeneration of acute injury of skeletal muscle. Foxp3-DTR+ and Foxp3-DTR- mice were injured with cardiotoxin in TA muscle at day 0 and treated with diphtheria toxin every other day from day 0 until dissection on day 4 or 8. TA muscle was flash-frozen and RNA was extracted using Trizol. RNA from whole tissue samples was amplified, labeled, and hybridized to Affymetrix Mouse Gene 1.0 ST Arrays.
