RNA sequencing of Follicular Cytotoxic CD8+ T Cells from Trypanosoma cruzi-infected mice

ABSTRACT: Follicular cytotoxic CD8? T (Tfc) cells are a specialized subset of CD8? T lymphocytes that combine helper and cytotoxic functions. While their phenotypic and functional properties have been described in several infectious and inflammatory settings, little is known whether Tfc cells exhibit distinct characteristics across secondary lymphoid organs. Using acute Trypanosoma cruzi infection as a model of systemic immune activation, we performed a comparative phenotypic, transcriptomic, metabolic, and functional characterization of Tfc cells arising in the spleen and inguinal lymph nodes. Tfc cells emerged transiently in both organs with similar kinetics and antigen specificity, yet segregated primarily according to tissue of analysis at the transcriptional level. Splenic Tfc cells exhibited enhanced glycolytic and mTORC1-associated signatures, increased mitochondrial mass, and stronger cytotoxic and B cell helper functions, promoting immunoglobulin production and plasmablast death. In contrast, Tfc cells from lymph node preferentially displayed memory-associated features, including higher CD127 and CD122 expression, increased IL-2 production, and preferential persistence during chronic infection. Together, these findings indicate that Tfc populations from spleen and lymph nodes are characterized by distinct transcriptional, metabolic, and functional states.

RNA-Seq of IL-2-KO follicular CD8 T cells and IL-2-KO follicular CD4 T cells

Project description:Follicular CXCR5+ PD-1+ CD8 T cells (CD8 Tfc) arise in multiple models of systemic autoimmunity yet their functional contribution to disease remains in debate. Here we define the follicular localization and functional interactions of CD8 Tfc with B cells during autoimmune disease. The absence of functional T regulatory cells in autoimmunity allows for CD8 Tfc development that then expands with lymphoproliferation. CD8 Tfc are identifiable within the lymph nodes and spleen during systemic autoimmunity, but not during tissue-restricted autoimmune disease. Autoimmune CD8 Tfc cells are polyfunctional, producing helper cytokines IL-21, IL-4, and IFNγ while maintaining cytolytic proteins CD107a, granzyme B, and TNF. During autoimmune disease, IL-2-KO CD8 T cells infiltrate the B cell follicle and germinal center, including the dark zone, to induce AID in vitro in naïve B cells via IL-4 secretion. CD8 Tfc represent a unique CD8 T cell population with a diverse effector cytokine repertoire that can contribute to pathogenic autoimmune B cell response.

Characterization with age of resident T cells within secondary lymphoid organs in the steady state

Project description:Using two different experimental approaches, we here highlight the long-term residence of a substantial proportion of CD4 Treg and CD4 Tmem cells within the secondary lymphoid organs of specific pathogen-free mice. Microbiota plays an important role in T-cell residence in Peyer’s patches, but only a minor one, if any, in lymph nodes. Lymph node-resident CD4 Treg and CD4 Tmem cells share many phenotypic and functional characteristics, including a core transcriptional profile, with their cell-counterparts from non-lymphoid tissues. In particular, S1PR1 down-regulation may represent the main mechanism accounting for T-cell residency within secondary lymphoid organs. Strikingly, T-cell residence increases with age, to the point that the majority of CD4 Treg and Tmem cells from lymph nodes are in fact, resident T cells in old mice. Altogether, our results show that T-cell residence is not only a hallmark of non-lymphoid tissues, but can be extended to secondary lymphoid organs.

Effector differentiation and therapeutic reinvigoration of CD8+ T cells in chronic infection depend on KLF2-directed lymph node homing

Project description:In this study, we examine the heterogeneity and molecular regulation of CD8 T cells in chronic infection across lymph nodes and spleen. We find that lymph nodes, not the spleen, support the stemness and polyfunctionality of CD8 T cells and their response to PD-1 blocking therapy. We discover that the transcription factor KLF2 is specifically expressed in and required for stem-like precursor and effector-like T cells. Finally, we show that migratory dendritic cell in the lymph nodes support the differentiation and function of CD8 T cells.

CXCR5+ follicular cytotoxic T cells control viral infection in B cell follicles

Project description:In response to infection, antigen-specific CD8+ T cells are primed in the T cell zone of secondary lymphoid organs and differentiate into cytotoxic effector T (TC) cells. Concurrently, CD4+ T cells differentiate into follicular helper T (TFH) cells that localize to B cell follicles and promote protective antibody responses. During unresolved infections, however, some viruses including human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or Epsteinâ??Barr virus (EBV) escape immune control and persist in TFH cells and B cells, respectively. Exclusion of Tc cells from B cell follicles is thought to be a major mechanism of immune evasion. New strategies are therefore needed to eradicate infected cells in follicles for a permanent cure. Using mouse infection models and human samples, we here identify a specialized group of TC cells expressing the chemokine receptor CXCR5 that can selectively enter B cell follicles and eradicate infected TFH and B cells. We demonstrate that differentiation of these cells, which we term follicular cytotoxic T (TFC) cells, requires the transcription factors Bcl6, E2A and Tcf1, whereas the transcriptional regulators Blimp1, Id3 and Id2 inhibit their development. We demonstrate that Blimp1 and E2A directly regulate Cxcr5 expression, and together with Bcl6 and Tcf1 form a transcriptional circuit that guides the TFC differentiation. The identification of a follicular subset of TC cells has far reaching implications for developing better strategies for the control of infections that target B cells and TFH cells and for the eradication of B cell derived malignancies. There is no associated input. The E2A Bio-ChIP-seq was performed with total thymocytes from Tcf3Bio/Bio Rosa26BirA/BirA mice

Inflationary T cell receptor sequencing following MCMV infection in Tcf1 transgenic mice

Project description:Inflationary T cells were isolated from various organs in Tcf1-GFP mice following MCMV infection. TCRbeta sequencing was performed using Illumina MiSeq 2x300 platform. Peripheral tissue samples correspond to either Tcf1-high or Tcf1-low from spleen/lung/lymph nodes. Blood samples correspond to bulk TCRb sequencing without specific-cell isolation. All sample numbers correspond to the same mouse (e.g. spleen1 and blood1 are from the same animal).

Microarray of four types of mouse immune samples including those of the spleen (SP), bone marrow (BM), lymph node (LN), and peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) and three tumor tissues including MC38, EL4 and LLC

Project description:We performed MIcroarray experiments on a total of 12 immune organs, including spleen (SP), bone marrow (BM), lymph node (LN) and Peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) and three tumor tissues including MC38, EL4 and LLC. 12 mice from four immune organs, including the spleen (SP), bone marrow (BM), lymph nodes (LN), and Peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC), were isolated using routine experimental methods.9 mice were randomly divided into 3 groups and implanted subcutaneously(s.c.) with EL4 (2.0*10^5 /mice), MC-38 (1.0*10^6 /mice), and LLC-JSP-t2 (2.0*10^5 /mice) cells, respectively. All mice were sacrificed and tumor tissues were collected when the tumor volume reached 100 mm 3 . The tissues were ground up with liquid nitrogen and the lysates were stocked using Trizol for subsequent array analysis. RNA isolation and hybridization were performed by Capitalbio Technology Corporation according to the standard Affymetrix protocol .

Expansion of cytotoxic CD4 T-cell clusters in lymph nodes of patients with Common Variable Immunodeficiency

Project description:Background: Patients with common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) suffer from hypogammaglobulinemia due to an inadequate differentiation of long-lived humoral immunity in germinal centers (GC). Objective: To further characterize the transcriptome and phenotype of T follicular helper (TFH) cells as key players in the GC reaction of CVID patients. Methods: Sorted TFH cells from CVID lymph nodes and healthy control tonsils were analyzed by bulk-RNA-sequencing. Altered protein expression was verified by flow cytometry and CyTOF analysis. Tissue localization of cells was determined by multi-fluorescence imaging. Results: Transcriptome analysis of sorted TFH cells revealed an enrichment of cytotoxicity-associated gene sets in CVID patients. Extended immune phenotyping identified different cytotoxic CD4 memory populations expressing T-bet, EOMES, CRTAM, Perforin, and Granzyme A and B. Two clusters co- expressing markers of TFH differentiation such as CXCR5, ICOS, and PD1 were expanded in CVID lymph nodes. One of them additionally expressed high levels of FoxP3. Histological sections confirmed the increase in Granzyme-B+EOMES+ CD4 cells in GCs of patients’ lymph nodes. Only few of these cells circulate in peripheral blood. Discussion: Our study reports for the first time that the previously reported type 1 polarization in lymph nodes of CVID patients is associated with an expansion of two distinct cytotoxic CD4 TFH cell clusters within GCs which were very rare in peripheral blood. Further investigations directly in secondary tissues are required to explore their role in the GC failure in CVID.
