Project description:In this study, we sought to distinguish phenotypically and functionally distinct virus-specific effector CD4 T cell subsets that form during acute lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV) infection and to examine their ability to develop into memory T cells. To further characterize the effector subsets and identify genetic pathways and transcription factors involved in their differentiation, we performed genome-wide gene expression profiling of the three day 8 effector cell populations: (1) PSGL1hi Ly6Chi, (2) PSGL1hi Ly6Clo and (3) PSGL1lo Ly6Clo Smarta CD4 T cells along with (4) day 60 memory PSGL1hi and (5) naïve Smarta CD4 T cells using Illumina BeadChips. Results of this microarray confirmed the validity of our phenotyping by flow cytometry in many ways and showed distinct gene signatures for the three effector subsets. DNA microarray analysis was performed on two or three independent samples of five different Smarta CD4 T cell populations: (1) naïSGL1lo, (3) day 8 PSGL1hi Ly6Clo, (4) day 8 PSGL1hi Ly6Clo and (5) day 60 PSGL1hi memory cells.

Project description:Following infection with LCMV, CD4+ SMARTA TCR transgenic cells (specific for the gp61-80 epitope of the LCMV glycoprotein) rapidly expand, become effector cells, and go on to form a long-lived memory population. Following infection with a recombinant Listeria monocytogenes expressing the LCMV epitope gp61-80, SMARTA cells also expand but display defective effector differentiation and fail to form memory. In an attempt to understand the signals required for CD4 T cell memory differentiation, we compared gene expression by SMARTA cells at the peak of the primary response following either Lm-gp61 or LCMV infection. Experiment Overall Design: SMARTA cells were purified at day 7 post-infection with either LCMV or Lm-gp61. SMARTA cells were sorted on the basis of Thy1.1 expression using a FACSAria. Cells were sorted through the machine twice to enhance purity. Two biological replicates of each group are provided. Each replicate represents the results of SMARTA pooled from three animals.

Project description:CD4 T follicular helper (Tfh) cells provide the required signals to B cells for germinal center reactions that are necessary for longlived antibody responses. However, it remains unclear whether there are CD4+ memory T cells committed to the Tfh lineage after antigen clearance. Using adoptive transfer of antigen-specific memory CD4+ subpopulations (based on CXCR5 and Ly6c expression)in the LCMV infection model, we found that there are distinct memory CD4+ T cell populations with commitment to the Tfh and Th1 lineages. Our conclusions are based on gene expression profiles, epigenetic studies and phenotypic and functional analysis. The gene expression profiles of virus-specific CD4 T cell subets at effector and memory stages is presented here. The SMARTA TCR transgenic / adptive transfer system was used to identify and sort subsets of antigen-specific CD4 T cells (based on their expression of Ly6c and CXCR5) elicited after acute infection with LCMV (Arm).

Project description:Trascriptional analysis of CD2 hi and CD25 lo CD4+ effector T cells during acute viral infection. SMARTA cells were transferred into B6 mice, followed by infection with LCMV. At day 5 post-infection, CD25 hi and CD25 lo SMARTA cells were isolated from the spleen by FACS. Consistent with our prior studies showing that CD25 lo early effector cells give rise to both Tfh effector cells and memory T cells, we observed gene expression in the CD25 lo population consistent with Tfh differentiation. Conversely, CD25 hi effector cells expressed markers consistent with Th1 differentiation and short-term survival.

Project description:Understanding the response of memory CD8 T cells to persistent antigen re-stimulation and the role of CD4 T cell help is critical to the design of successful vaccines for chronic diseases. However, studies comparing the protective abilities and qualities of memory and naïve cells have been mostly performed in acute infections, and little is known about their roles during chronic infections. Herein, we show that memory cells dominate over naïve cells and are protective when present in large enough numbers to quickly reduce infection. In contrast, when infection is not rapidly reduced, memory cells are quickly lost, unlike naïve cells. This loss of memory cells is due to (i) an early block in cell proliferation, (ii) selective regulation by the inhibitory receptor 2B4, and (iii) increased reliance on CD4 T cell help. These findings have important implications towards the design of T cell vaccines against chronic infections and tumors. 16 samples are analyzed: 3 replicates of secondary effector CD8 P14 T cells at day 8 post-acute lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV) infection; 4 replicates of secondary effector CD8 P14 T cells at day 8 post-chronic LCMV infection; 4 replicates of primary effector CD8 P14 T cells at day 8 post-acute LCMV infection; and 5 replicates of primary effector CD8 P14 T cells at day 8 post-chronic LCMV infection.

Project description:Following an infection, CD4+ lymphocytes can differentiate into long-lived memory T cells, some of which circulate through the secondary lymphoid organs (SLOs) while a population lodges in non-lymphoid tissues. While CD4+ T cells in SLOs have been examined, the developmental origins and transcriptional regulation of tissue-resident memory T cells (TRM) remain largely undefined. Here, we investigated the phenotypic, functional, and transcriptional profile of virus-specific CD4+ TRM in the small intestine (SI) following acute lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV) infection. LCMV-specific CD4+ TRM at day 7 of infection shared a gene-expression program and chromatin profile with TH1 cells and progressively acquired a mature TRM program by day 21 memory time point, supporting a developmental relationship between TRM and TH1 subsets. Furthermore, we demonstrated that TRM cells expressed genes associated with both effector and memory T cell fates, including the transcriptional regulators Blimp1, Id2, and Bcl6 which were necessary for CD4+ TRM differentiation. TH1-associated Blimp1 and Id2 were both required for early TRM formation, while TFH-associated Bcl6 initially inhibited TRM differentiation but was critical for development of long-lived TRM cells. Our results identify new significance for TFs previously associated with circulating CD4+ T cell populations and their roles in driving SI CD4+ TRM differentiation.
