Memory-like CD8 T-cells sustain the immune response to chronic viral infections.

ABSTRACT: We have discovered a small subpopulation of virus-specific CD8 T-cells that sustains the T-cell response in chronic infections. These cells are defined by - and depend on - the expression of the transcription factor Tcf1 (T cell factor 1) and show key characteristics of central memory cells while lacking an effector signature. Unlike conventional memory cells, Tcf1+ T-cells display hallmarks of an “exhausted” phenotype, including the expression of certain inhibitory receptors.

Memory-like CD8 T-cells sustain the immune response to chronic viral infections.

Project description:We have discovered a small subpopulation of virus-specific CD8 T-cells that sustains the T-cell response in chronic infections. These cells are defined by - and depend on - the expression of the transcription factor Tcf1 (T cell factor 1) and show key characteristics of central memory cells while lacking an effector signature. Unlike conventional memory cells, Tcf1+ T-cells display hallmarks of an âexhaustedâ phenotype, including the expression of certain inhibitory receptors. Naive Tcf1-GFP+ P14 cells (Naive) were transferred into Vb5 recipient mice (CD45.1) prior to infection with LCMV clone 13 (c13). Tcf1-GFP+ P14 cells (chronic Tcf1+) and Tcf1-GFP- P14 cells (chronic Tcf1-) were flow sorted on day 28 post infection. Naive Tcf1-GFP+ P14 cells (Naive) were also transferred into C57BL/6 hosts (CD45.1.2) prior to infection with LCMV Armstrong (Arm). Tcf1-GFP+ P14 cells (memory Tcf1+) and Tcf1-GFP- P14 cells (memory Tcf1-) were flow sorted on day 28 post infection. Total RNA was extracted, cDNA libraries prepared and sequencing was performed using Illumina HiSeq 2500 technology.

Ectopic Tcf1 expression reprograms exhausted CD8+ T cells to acquire stem cell-like features [RNA-seq]

Project description:The goal of this study is to determine the capacity of Tcf1 to reprogram exhausted CD8+ T cells for function restoration. Tex cells elicited by chronic infection contain a CXCR5+Tim3– subset that has stem cell-like self-renewing capacity and expresses an elevated level of Tcf1 (termed Tex-stem), and Tex-stem cells depend on Tcf1 for generation and persistence. We show that ectopic Tcf1 expression profoundly affected the transcriptome of Tex cells.

Tumor-resident memory-like CD8 T cells represent an essential cellular target for cancer immunotherapy

Project description:Persistent exposure to high levels of antigen results in the progressive exhaustion of T cells and has been thought to preclude the formation of memory. In contrast to the latter assumption, we show here that tumor-specific CD8 T cells residing in the tumor microenvironment include a Tcf1 expressing sub population that has key characteristics of central memory cells, lack an effector cell signature but display hallmarks of exhausted T cells, including the expression co-inhibitory receptors such as PD1. Similar memory-like cells are identified in melanoma patients. Preclinical mouse models reveal that the expansion of tumor-specific CD8 T cells, the production of terminally differentiated exhausted CD8 T cells and sustained tumor control in response to therapeutic vaccination or immune checkpoint blockade critically depends on the presence of these memory-like CD8 T cells. Tumor immune responses thus harbor tumor resident memory-like CD8 T cell populations, which can be therapeutically targeted to improve immune control of cancer.

RNA Polymerase II Pausing Factor NELF in CD8+ T Cells Promotes Anti-Tumor Immunity

Project description:The master transcriptional regulator T cell factor 1 (TCF1) is required for the anti-tumor functions of memory and stem-like CD8+ T cells. However, how TCF1 partners with other transcription factors to orchestrate the gene activation program critical for anti-tumor immunity remains poorly understood. Here we show that negative elongation factor B (NELFB), an RNA polymerase II pausing factor, cooperates with TCF1 in T cell responses to cancer. Genetic ablation of mouse Nelfb in mature T lymphocytes severely impaired anti-tumor immunity responding to both primary tumor challenge and tumor antigen-mediated vaccination. NELFB depletion resulted in more exhausted, and reduced memory, T cell populations, whereas its ectopic expression boosted host anti-tumor immunity and efficacy of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell immunotherapy. Mechanistically, NELFB is physically associated with TCF1 and recruited preferentially to TCF1-enriched transcriptional enhancers and promoters in CD8+ T cells. Nelfb ablation significantly restricted chromatin accessibility to these TCF1-associated loci. Thus, NELFB is a previously unrecognized functional partner of TCF1 that potentiates the chromatin openness of TCF1-targeting regulatory elements. Our findings also suggest that augmenting NELFB expression in CD8+ T cells may improve therapeutic outcomes of anti-cancer CAR-T immunotherapies.

Early precursor T cells establish and propagate T cell exhaustion in chronic infection [RNA-seq]

Project description:TCF1+ precursors of exhausted T cells maintain T cell immunity during chronic infection and cancer and mediate the response to immune checkpoint inhibition; however, their developmental requirements are poorly understood. Here, we demonstrate that high antigen load promoted the differentiation of TCF1+ precursor T cells, which acquired hallmarks of T cell exhaustion such as impaired production of IFN within the first days after infection. Transcriptional profiling revealed that exhaustion was established first in precursor T cells while early effector cells retained a polyfunctional profile. Early precursor T cells exposed to high amounts of antigen showed epigenetic imprinting of T cell receptor-dependent transcription factor binding, were dependent on BACH2 and restricted to the generation of T cells displaying features of exhaustion. Overall, we demonstrate that T cell exhaustion manifests first in TCF1+ precursor T cells and is propagated subsequently to the pool of antigen-specific T cells.

Transcription profiling of mouse naive, effector, memory and exhausted virus-specific CD8 T cells after chronic viral infection

Project description:CD8 T cells normally differentiate from resting naÃ¯ve T cells into function effector and then memory CD8 T cells following acute infections. During chronic viral infections, however, virus-specific CD8 T cells often become exhausted. We used microarrays to examine the gene expression differences between naive, effector, memory and exhausted virus-specific CD8 T cells following lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus infection. Experiment Overall Design: Three or four independent samples were sorted by flow cytometry for each cell type (naive, effector, memory and exhausted) virus-specific CD8 T cells. RNA was extracted and hybridized to Affymetrix microarrays.
