Gene expression of T follicular helper (TFH) cells 6 h after ICOS-L blockade

ABSTRACT: The maintenance of the TFH phenotype depends on continuous signals via ICOS. For a global assessment of differences in gene expression after interruption of the ICOS pathway a genome wide transcriptome analysis was performed. We used the OT-II adoptive transfer system to isolate antigen-specific TFH cells (day 6 after immunization) after short-term (6 hours) blockade of the ICOS pathway using a monoclonal antibody against ICOS-L.

Gene expression of T follicular helper (TFH) cells 6 h after ICOS-L blockade

Project description:The maintenance of the TFH phenotype depends on continuous signals via ICOS. For a global assessment of differences in gene expression after interruption of the ICOS pathway a genome wide transcriptome analysis was performed. We used the OT-II adoptive transfer system to isolate antigen-specific TFH cells (day 6 after immunization) after short-term (6 hours) blockade of the ICOS pathway using a monoclonal antibody against ICOS-L. Gene expression profiles of TFH cells with or without ICOS-L blockade. Affymetrix MG 430 2.0 whole genome arrays were performed in duplicates for the control and blockade group (4 arrays in total). To obtain genes significantly regulated upon ICOS L blockade, the expression profiles of TFH cells treated with an isotype control or anti-ICOS-L antibody were compared to each other. After total RNA extraction, reverse transcription, cDNA extraction, the biotinylated cRNA was transcribed, fragmented, and 15 M-BM-5g cRNA hybridized in duplicates for each of the two groups to the 4 GeneChip arrays: Group1 TFH cells control, Group2 TFH cells ICOS-L blockade.

ICOS-mediated inactivation of the FOXO1 transcription factor in the differentiation of T follicular helper cells

Project description:T follicular helper (Tfh) cells constitute an essential cell type in the induction of antibodies. We report that CD4 T cells lacking Foxo1 almost uniformly became CXCR5int Tfh cells following immunization. Moreover, a Foxo1 loss-of-function complemented an Icos mutation allowing the appearance of Tfh cells along with follicular, class-switched B cells and IgG isotype anti-DNA antibodies. Similarly, FOXO1 deficient Tfh differentiation displayed a substantially reduced dependence on ICOSL. Functional and molecular analyses show that FOXO1 regulates Tfh differentiation through a broad program of gene expression exemplified by positive regulation of Icos and negative regulation of Bcl6. These results demonstrate that a key step in Tfh differentiation is the ICOS-initiated activation of the PI3K-AKT pathway resulting in the inactivation of FOXO1. Performed ChIP-seq analysis to examine the role of foxo1 in the development of Tfh cells

Expression data from BCL6-YFP-positive Tfh cells, BCL6-YFP-negative Tfh cells, non-Tfh cells, and naïve helper T cells.

Project description:We found that a number of Tfh cells downmodulated BCL6 protein after their development, and we sought to compare the gene expression between BCL6-hi Tfh cells and BCL6-low Tfh cells. CD4+ T cells were sorted from immunized and non-immunized mice for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. Bcl6yfp/+ OT-II cells were transferred to congenic recipient mice, and immunized with NP-OVA in CFA subcutaneously. Seven or ten days after immunization, cells were collected from draining lymph nodes, and sorted on FACSAria by the expression of CXCR5, PD-1 and BCL6-YFP. Naive CD4+ T cells were CD4+ CD44lo CD62Lhi cells from unimmunized mice.

ICOS coreceptor signaling inactivates the transcription factor FOXO1 to promote Tfh cell differentiation

Project description:T follicular helper (Tfh) cells are essential in the induction of high-affinity, class-switched antibodies. The differentiation of Tfh cells is a multi-step process that depends upon the co-receptor ICOS and the activation of phosphoinositide-3 kinase leading to the expression of key Tfh cell genes. We report that ICOS signaling inactivates the transcription factor FOXO1, and a Foxo1 genetic deletion allowed for generation of Tfh cells with reduced dependence on ICOS ligand. Conversely, enforced nuclear localization of FOXO1 inhibited Tfh cell development even though ICOS was overexpressed. FOXO1 regulated Tfh cell differentiation through a broad program of gene expression exemplified by its negative regulation of Bcl6. Final differentiation to germinal center Tfh cells (GC-Tfh) was instead FOXO1 dependent as the Foxo1(-/-) GC-Tfh cell population was substantially reduced. We propose that ICOS signaling transiently inactivates FOXO1 to initiate a Tfh cell contingency that is completed in a FOXO1-dependent manner.

Expression Data from WT and Sh2d1a-/- in vivo follicular helper CD4 T cells (TFH) versus non follicular helper CD4 T cells (non-TFH)

Project description:CD4 T cell help is critical for both the generation and maintenance of germinal centers, and T follicular helper (TFH) cells are the CD4 T cell subset required for this process. SAP (SH2D1A) expression in CD4 T cells is essential for germinal center development. However, SAP-deficient mice have only a moderate defect in TFH differentiation as defined by common TFH surface markers. CXCR5+ TFH cells are found within the germinal center as well as along the boundary regions of T/B cell zones. Here we show that germinal center associated T cells (GC TFH) can be identified by their co-expression of CXCR5 and the GL7 epitope, allowing for phenotypic and functional analysis of TFH and GC TFH populations. Here we show GC TFH are a functionally discrete subset of further polarized TFH cells, with enhanced B cell help capacity and a specialized ability to produce IL-4 in a TH2-independent manner. Strikingly, SAP-deficient mice have an absence of the GC TFH subset and SAP- TFH are defective in IL-4 and IL-21 production. We further demonstrate that SLAM (Slamf1, CD150), a surface receptor that utilizes SAP signaling, is specifically required for IL-4 production by GC TFH. GC TFH cells require IL-4 and IL-21 production for optimal help to B cells. These data illustrate complexities of SAP-dependent SLAM family receptor signaling, revealing a prominent role for SLAM receptor ligation in IL-4 production by germinal center CD4 T cells but not in TFH and GC TFH differentiation. Analysis of in vivo antigen-specific (LCMV-specific, SMARTA TCR transgenic) WT and Sh2d1a-/- follicular helper CD4 T cells (CXCR5high),versus non-follicular helper CD4 T cells (CXCR5low), eight days after viral infection.

ICOS costimulation is indispensable for the differentiation of T follicular regulatory cells

Project description:ICOS is a T cell costimulatory receptor critical for Tfh cell generation and function. However, the role of ICOS in Tfr cell differentiation remains unclear. Using Foxp3-Cre-mediated ICOS knockout (ICOS FC) mice, we show that ICOS deficiency in Treg-lineage cells drastically reduces the number of Tfr cells during GC reactions but has a minimal impact on conventional Treg cells. Single-cell transcriptome analysis of Foxp3+ cells at an early stage of the GC reaction suggests that ICOS normally inhibits Klf2 expression to promote follicular features including Bcl6 upregulation. Further, ICOS costimulation promotes nuclear localization of NFAT2, a known driver of CXCR5 expression. Notably, ICOS FC mice had an unaltered overall GC B cell output but showed signs of expanded autoreactive B cells along with elevated autoantibody titers. Thus, our study demonstrates that ICOS costimulation is critical for Tfr cell differentiation and highlights the importance of Tfr cells in maintaining humoral immune tolerance during GC reactions.

RNA-sequencing of BCL6-sufficient and -insufficient OT-II TFH cells

Project description:We analyzed the transcriptome differences of BCL6-sufficient (CD4-Cre) and -insufficient (CD4-CrexBcl6fl/+) OT-II TFH cells. CD4-CrexBcl6fl/+ or control CD4-Cre OT-II T cells were transferred into CD45.1 Sap-/- mice. At day 3 post NP-OVA immunization, CXCR5hiPD-1hi TFH cells were sort-purified from the draining lymph node and prepared for RNA-seq analysis. Two technical repeats of ~200 cells per sample from each of 3 mice were included. BCL6-insufficient TFH cells differentially expressed many genes; among those downregulated were Stim1 and Plcg1, which code for STIM1 and PLCg1, respectively, that both impinge on calcium signaling downstream of TCR activation. Moreover, KEGG pathway analyses revealed that the calcium signaling-related pathway was generally upregulated in wildtype as compared to BCL6-insufficient TFH cells. These data support the notion that BCL6 control follicular T-B interactions by regulating multiple target genes involved in antigen-triggered calcium signaling in T cells.

Critical roles of mTORC1 and mTORC2 kinase signaling and glucose metabolism in follicular helper T cell differentiation

Project description:AbstractFollicular helper T (Tfh) cells are crucial for germinal center (GC) formation and humoral adaptive immunity. Mechanisms underlying Tfh cell differentiation in peripheral and mucosal lymphoid organs are incompletely understood. We report here that mTOR kinase complexes 1 and 2 (mTORC1 and mTORC2) are essential for Tfh cell differentiation and GC reaction under steady state and after antigen immunization and viral infection. Loss of mTORC1 and mTORC2 in T cells exerted distinct effects on Tfh cell signature gene expression, whereas increased mTOR activity promoted Tfh responses. Deficiency of mTORC2 impaired CD4+ T cell accumulation and IgA production, and aberrantly induced Foxo1 transcription factor. Mechanistically, the costimulatory molecule ICOS activated mTORC1 and mTORC2 to drive glycolysis and lipogenesis, and Glut1-mediated glucose metabolism promoted Tfh cell responses. Altogether, mTOR acts as a central node in Tfh cells to link immune signals to glucose metabolism and transcriptional activity.

RNA-seq of Tfh cells from BALB/c and C57Bl/6 mice immunized with OVA-IFA or OVA-CpG

Project description:The aim of the project was the identification of the transcriptional signature of effector T cells and Tfh cells that emerge following immunization with different adjuvants. For this purpose OVA-specific TCR-transgenic cells (from DO11.10 or OT-II mice) were adoptively transferred into congenic BALB/c or C57Bl/6 mice, subsequently immunized with OVA-IFA or OVA-CpG. At day 11, the OVA-specific T effector and Tfh cells were FACS sorted from the draining lymph nodes for RNA sequencing.
