Hobit and Blimp1 instruct a universal transcriptional program of tissue-residency in lymphocytes

ABSTRACT: Tissue-resident memory T cells (Trm) are non-circulating memory T cells that localize to portals of pathogen entry such as the skin, gut and lung where they provide efficient early protection against reinfection. Trm are characterized by a molecular profile that actively prevents egress from peripheral sites including the constitutive expression of the lectin CD69 and down-regulation of the chemokine receptor (CCR)7 and sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor 1 (S1PR1). This program is partially mediated by down-regulation of the transcription factor KLF2; however, to date no transcriptional regulator specific to Trm has been identified. Here we show that the Blimp1 related transcription factor Hobit is specifically upregulated in Trm and together with Blimp1, mediates the development and maintenance of Trm in various tissues including skin, gut, liver and kidney. Importantly, we found that the Hobit/Blimp1 transcriptional module is also required for other tissue-resident lymphocytes including Natural Killer T (NKT) cells and liver tissue-resident NK cells (trNK). We show that these populations share a universal transcriptional program with Trm instructed by Hobit and Blimp1 that includes the repression of CCR7, S1PR1 and KLF2 thereby enforcing tissue retention. Our results identify Hobit and Blimp1 as major common regulators that drive the differentiation of distinct populations of tissue-resident lymphocytes.

Hobit and Blimp1 instruct a universal transcriptional program of tissue-residency in lymphocytes

Project description:Tissue-resident memory T cells (Trm) permanently localize to portals of pathogen entry, where they provide immediate protection against re-infection. To enforce tissue retention, Trm upregulate CD69 and downregulate molecules associated with tissue egress including CCR7 and S1PR1. Although suppression of the transcription factor KLF2 in Trm prevents S1PR1-driven migration, a Trm-specific transcriptional regulator has not been identified. Here, we show that the transcription factor Hobit is specifically upregulated in Trm and together with related Blimp1, mediates the development of Trm in skin, gut, liver and kidney. Importantly, the Hobit/Blimp1 transcriptional module is also required for other populations of tissue-resident lymphocytes including NKT cells and liver-resident NK cells, all of which share a common transcriptional program that includes repression of Ccr7, S1pr1, and Klf2. Our results identify Hobit and Blimp1 as central regulators of this universal program that instructs tissue retention in diverse tissue-resident lymphocyte populations.

Hobit identifies TRM precursors that are regulated by Eomes

Project description:Tissue-resident memory CD8+ T cells (TRM) constitute a non-circulating memory T cell subset that provides early protection against re-infection. However, how TRM arise from antigen-triggered T cells has remained unclear. Exploiting the TRM-restricted expression of Hobit, we developed TRM reporter/deleter mice to study TRM differentiation. We found that Hobit was upregulated in a subset of LCMV-specific T cells located within peripheral tissues during the effector phase of the immune response. These Hobit+ effector T cells were identified as TRM precursors, given that their depletion substantially decreased TRM development, but not the formation of circulating memory T cells. Adoptive transfer experiments of Hobit+ effector T cells corroborated their biased contribution to the TRM lineage. Transcriptional profiling of Hobit+ effector T cells underlined the early establishment of TRM properties including downregulation of tissue exit receptors and upregulation of TRM-associated molecules. Importantly, we identified Eomes as a key factor instructing the early bifurcation of circulating and resident lineages. These findings establish that commitment of TRM occurs early in antigen-driven T cell differentiation and reveal the molecular mechanisms underlying this differentiation pathway.

ATAC-Seq of CD4+ T cell subsets during 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.

An unconventional integrin b3 and CD103 heterodimer improves the anti-tumor immunity of tissue-resident T cells

Project description:Current cancer immunotherapies promote recovery of CD103+ tissue-resident memory T cells (Trm) population of the tumor-infiltrating T lymphocytes (TILs). However, not all treated patients exhibit improved anti-tumor immunity and survival, likely due to the immunophenotypical diversity among the CD103+ Trm TILs. Utilising multifaceted proteomics approaches and patients’ clinical analyses, we discovered an unusual subset of CD8+ Trm TILs expressing non-canonical integrin β3 early during T cells activation. The integrin β3 surprisingly heterodimerises with CD103 on T cells, leading to unconventional granulysin-mediated cytotoxicity, elevated alternative bioenergy usage and efficient T cell migration, with minimal overall exhaustion. Importantly, early-stage non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) patients with enriched presence of integrin β3+CD103+ Trm TILs exhibited better clinical prognosis, with improved T cell immunophenotype, hence confirming the beneficial role of this unusual subset of Trm TILs. These unconventional anti-tumor T cell features provide new avenues and future opportunities for designing better translational immunotherapy strategies.

Single Cell RNA-Seq of CD8+ T cell subsets responding to tumor

Project description:Tissue-resident memory CD8+ T cells (Trm) provide host protection through continuous surveillance of non-lymphoid tissues. While the relevance of Trm in diverse diseases ranging from infection to cancer is appreciated, the development and functional heterogeneity of Trm remain poorly understood. Using single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) and genetic reporter mice, we identified discrete lineages of intestinal antigen-specific CD8+ T cells, including a Blimp1hiId3lo tissue-resident effector cell population most prominent in the early phase of acute viral and bacterial infections, and a molecularly distinct Blimp1loId3hi tissue-resident memory population that subsequently accumulated at later infection timepoints. These distinct Trm populations where characterized by unique transcriptional programs including differential roles for transcriptional regulators Blimp1, T-bet, Id2, and Id3 in supporting and maintaining intestinal Trm heterogeneity during infection. Extending our analysis to malignant tissue, we also identified discrete populations of effector-like and memory-like CD8+ T cell populations with tissue-resident gene-expression signatures within tumors that shared features of terminally-exhausted and progenitor-exhausted T cells, respectively. Clarification of CD8+ T cell ontogeny and heterogeneity in non-lymphoid tissues holds broad implications for enhancing vaccination and immunotherapy approaches.
