RNAseq of colonic epithelial and lamina propria-derived Tregs

ABSTRACT: Local tissue adaptation by immune cells is of especially high importance in the small and large intestines, the largest mucosal barrier surface in the body. Recent work on tissue resident T cells has focused on CD8+ “tissue resident memory cells” or Trm. However, the human colon also contains different populations of CD4+ T cells, in mice referred to as “intraepithelial lymphocytes” and “lamina propria lymphocytes”. Our results uncover a pattern of compartmentalized tissue adaptation of human colonic CD4+ T cells in the steady state. This pattern is lost during active Inflammatory Bowel Disease, with potential detrimental effects on barrier maintenance and continued inflammation.
