Project description:IL-17-producing cells are important mediators of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) after allogeneic stem cell transplantation (SCT). Here we demonstrate that a distinct CD8+ Tc17 population develops rapidly after SCT but fails to maintain lineage fidelity such that they are unrecognizable in the absence of a fate reporter. Tc17 differentiation is dependent on alloantigen presentation by host-DC together with IL-6. Tc17 cells express high levels of multiple prototypic lineage-defining transcription factors (e.g. RORgt, T-bet) and cytokines (e.g. IL-17A, IL-22, IFNg, GM-CSF, IL-13). Targeted depletion of Tc17 early after transplant protects from lethal acute GVHD, however Tc17 cells are non-cytolytic and fail to mediate graft–versus–leukemia (GVL) effects. Thus, the Tc17 differentiation program during GVHD culminates in a highly plastic, hyper-inflammatory, poorly-cytolytic effector population which we term inflammatory Tc17 (iTc17). Since iTc17 mediate GVHD without contributing to GVL, therapeutic inhibition of iTc17 development in a clinical setting represents an attractive approach for separating GVHD and GVL.

Project description:Graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) is still one of the major complications following allogeneic stem cell transplantation (SCT) triggered by alloreactive donor T cells. Whereas murine data have clearly shown the beneficial effects of regulatory T cells (Tregs) on the development of GvHD, data from the human system are rare mainly due to low cell numbers of circulating or organ-infiltrating Tregs in lymphopenic patients. Here, we present a comparative analysis of Tregs from patients with and without acute/ chronic GvHD designed as a dynamical approach studying the whole genome profile over the first 6 months after SCT. For this purpose, blood samples were collected monthly for FACS-based isolation of CD4+CD25highCD127low/- Tregs. The Treg transcriptome showed a high stability in the first half year representing the most sensitive time window for tolerance induction. However, the comparison of the Treg transcriptome from patients with and without GvHD uncovered regulated gene transcripts that point to a reduced suppressive function of Tregs with diminished migration capacity to the target organs likely contributing to the development of GvHD. These findings highlight the critical role of human Tregs in the pathophysiology of GvHD and identify novel targets for the manipulation of Tregs to optimize cellular immune intervention strategies. Keywords: cell type comparison Relative gene expressions were determined by normalized intensity values. GeneSpring analysis was performed using the Treg transcriptome data with following comparisons: no GvHD d90 versus no GvHD d150, no GvHD d90 versus acute GvHD, no GvHD d150 versus chronic GvHD, acute GvHD versus chronic GvHD, acute GvHD versus GvHD d90 and chronic GvHD versus GvHD d150 (Figure 2). Cut-off was a transcript fold change of 2 or -2 in at least one comparison. Student´s t-test was used to identify significant expression changes.

Project description:Acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is the major cause of non-relapse mortality post-allogeneic stem cell transplantation. The majority of patients non-responsive to front line treatment with steroids have an estimated overall 2-year survival rate of only 10%. Treatment options for steroid-refractory acute GVHD are limited. Bromodomain and Extraterminal Domain (BET) inhibitors PLX51107 and PLX2853, deemed safe in human clinical trials in high risk malignancies, significantly downregulate pro-inflammatory Th1 and Th17 responses without impacting T regulatory cells, improving survival in murine models of acute GVHD while retaining beneficial graft-versus-leukemia effects. Modulation of the IL23/STAT3 axis via BET inhibition resulted in a reduction of pathogenic Th1/Th17 cells in the spleen and acute GVHD target organs such as the gastrointestinal tract. Based on our preclinical data presented here, PLX51107 will enter clinical trial for refractory acute GVHD in a Phase 1 safety, biological efficacy trial.

Project description:CD4+ FOXP3+ regulatory T (Treg) cells are currently under clinical evaluation as an immunoregulatory cellular therapy for graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) prevention and treatment. Preclinical and clinical studies indicate that Treg are able to protect from GvHD without interfering with the graft-versus-tumor (GvT) effect of hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT), although the underlying molecular mechanisms are largely unknown. To elucidate Treg suppressive function during in vivo suppression of acute GvHD, we performed paired T cell receptor (TCR) sequencing and RNA sequencing analysis on conventional T cells (Tcon) and Treg before and after transplantation in an MHC major-mismatch mouse model of HCT. We show that both Treg and Tcon underwent clonal expansion and that Treg did not interfere with the activation of alloreactive Tcon clones. Transcriptomic analysis revealed that Treg predominantly affected CD4 Tcon and to a lesser extent CD8 Tcon transcriptome, modulating the transcription of genes encoding pro- and anti-inflammatory molecules as well as enzymes involved in metabolic processes, inducing a switch from glycolysis to oxidative phosphorylation. Finally, Treg did not interfere with the induction of gene sets involved in the GvT effect. Our results shed light into the mechanisms of acute GvHD suppression by Treg and will support the clinical translation of this immunoregulatory approach.

Project description:Analysis of donor CD4+ and CD8+ T cells purified from spleens and ovaries after murine syngeneic and allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation Infertility associated with ovarian failure is a serious late complication for female survivors of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (SCT). While the role of pretransplant conditioning regimen has been well appreciated, increasing application of reduced-intensity conditioning facilitated us to revisit the other factors possibly affecting ovarian function after allogeneic SCT. We have addressed whether donor T-cell mediated graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) could be causally related to female infertility in mice. To study transcriptomes of donor T cells infiltrating into the ovary, donor T cells were sorted from recipients' ovaries and microarray analysis was performed.

Project description:In patients undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT), severe graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is tied to failed donor plasmacytoid DC (pDC) reconstitution. The mechanism whereby GVHD causes donor pDC defects and the precise role donor pDCs play in GVHD remain poorly understood. pDCs develop from HSCs in successive stages through Flt3 signaling-dependent differentiation, beginning as multi-potent progenitors (MPPs) and later becoming common DC progenitors. We observed that MPPs were critical for sustaining pDCs and were severely depleted during GVHD. Loss of MPPs was associated with decreased amounts of MPP-producing HSCs and mTOR activation-induced cell death of proliferating MPPs. Additionally, GM-CSF derived from alloreactive T cells subverted MPP production of pDCs. Together, GVHD and alloreactive T cells caused donor pDC defects by impairing the generation, maintenance and differentiation of HSCs and MPPs. Importantly, pDCs suppressed the proliferation and expansion of activated autologous CD4+ T cells via a type I-IFN signaling-dependent mechanism. Transfer of donor pDCs early after transplantation repressed GVHD and preserved potent GVL effects, significantly improving the survival of leukemia mice undergoing allo-HSCT. Our findings identify novel strategies that improve the recovery of donor pDCs early after allo-HSCT and thus may represent an effective therapy to control GVHD. Our findings have broad implications for other diseases in which functional DC development is impaired, such as chronic infections, autoimmunity and cancer.

Project description:Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) results from recognition of host antigens by donor T cells following allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantion (AHCT). Notably, histoincompatibility between donor and recipient is necessary but not sufficient to elicit GVHD. Therefore, we tested the hypothesis that some donors may be “stronger alloresponders” than others, and consequently more likely to elicit GVHD. To this end, we analyzed the gene expression profile of CD4 and CD8 T cells from 50 AHCT donors. We found that pre-AHCT gene expression profiling segregates donors whose recipient suffered from GVHD or not. The “dangerous donor” trait (GVHD+ recipient) is under polygenic control and is shaped by the activity of genes that regulate diverse cell functions including TGF-β signaling and cell proliferation. We also performed gene expression profiling in T cells harvested from 40 AHCT recipients on day 365 post-AHCT. The donor gene profile defined on day 0 showed exceedingly strong correlation with that of recipient CD4 and CD8 T cells harvested one year post-AHCT. These data suggest that donor gene profiles linked with GVHD were largely imprinted at the hematopoietic stem cell level. The ability to discriminate strong and weak alloresponders using gene expression profiling could pave the way to personalized transplantation medicine.

Project description:Acute GVHD is known to damage the structure of peripheral lymphoid organs. This study investigates how peripheral tolerance induction is affected by lymph node stroma damage in the context of graft-versus-host disease. Fibroblastic reticular cells (FRC) were flow sorted on day 7 post allo-BMT in mice developing acute GVHD, transplanted no GVHD-recipients or untransplanted control mice. The single miHA-mismatch female into male transplantation model was used (acute GVHD group: T-cell depleted bone marrow (TCDBM) + HY-specific TCR-transgenic MataHari CD8+ T cells into C57BL/6 male recipients; no GVHD group: TCDBM only).
