Project description:The Ag receptors on alpha/beta and gamma/delta T cells differ not only in the nature of the ligands that they recognize but also in their signaling potential. We hypothesized that the differences in alpha/beta - and gamma/delta TCR signal transduction were due to differences in the intracellular signaling pathways coupled to these two TCRs. To investigate this, we employed transcriptional profiling to identify genes encoding signaling molecules that are differentially expressed in mature alpha/beta and gamma/delta T cell populations. Unexpectedly, we found that B lymphoid kinase (Blk), a Src family kinase expressed primarily in B cells, is expressed in gamma/delta T cells but not in alpha/beta T cells. Analysis of Blk-deficient mice revealed that Blk is required for the development of IL-17-producing gamma/delta T cells. Furthermore, Blk is expressed in lymphoid precursors and, in this capacity, plays a role in regulating thymus cellularity during ontogeny. Naive alpha/beta and gamma/delta T cells isolated from mouse lymph nodes and purified by negative selection were compared using MOE430 2.0 GeneChip.

Project description:Childhood exposure to carcinogens renders a higher risk of breast cancer. The molecular mechanisms underlying cancer development after such exposure are not, however, well understood. Here we examined how the mechanism of cancer development relates to the age at exposure to ionizing radiation (IR) or the carcinogen 1-methyl-1-nitrosourea (MNU). Pre- and postpubertal (3- and 7-week-old, respectively) female Sprague-Dawley rats were whole-body gamma-irradiated (2 Gy), injected intraperitoneally with MNU (20 mg/kg) or left untreated and were autopsied at 50 weeks of age. Mammary carcinomas were examined for estrogen receptor (ER) alpha, progesterone receptor (PR) and ErbB ligand expression and for expression microarrays. Early histological changes of the ovaries were also evaluated. The incidence of mammary cancer was higher after postpubertal, rather than prepubertal, IR exposure; the inverse was true for MNU. Most cancers were positive for both ER alpha and PR except for the prepubertal IR group. Interestingly, cancers of the prepubertal IR group expressed a different set of ErbB ligands from those of the other groups and did not overexpress Areg, which encodes an estrogen-regulated ErbB ligand, or other developmentally related genes including those for hormonally regulated mammary gland development. Prepubertal IR exposure resulted in ovarian dysfunction as revealed by a reduced follicular pool. Evidence thus suggests that mammary carcinogenesis induced by prepubertal IR exposure is independent of ovarian hormones but requires certain ErbB ligands; induction by postpubertal exposure depends on ovarian hormones and different ErbB ligands. In contrast, MNU-induced carcinogenesis was less influenced by the age at exposure.

Project description:We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression by circulating TCRVgamma9+ gamma delta T cells isolated from healthy individuals,tested either as resting cells or cells activated by phosphoantigen BrHPP and IL-2at an early(+6hrs) and a late (+7days) timepoint. We find that with more “NK cell” genes than alphabeta T cells and more “T cell” genes than NK cells, the circulating TCRVgamma9+ gamma delta T cells cells have a hybrid transcriptome. The gene signature of the activated cells recapitulates their physiological functions: Th1 cytokine, chemokine and cytotoxic activities at first and mitotic activity at later time points. The gene expression pattern of activated normal gamma delta T cells is nevertheless clearly distinctive from that of NK/T and peripheral T cell lymphomas of the gamma delta subtype.

The gene expression pattern of activated normal gamma delta T cells is nevertheless clearly distinctive from that of NK/T and peripheral T cell lymphomas of the gamma delta subtype. Human TCRVg9positive gamma delta T cells were isolated from PBMC by cell sorting (>98% purity) and activated for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. Samples comprise cells before activation (control time 0), early after activation with BrHPP/IL2 (+6 hours) and at a later timepoint of the activated in vitro culture with BrHPP/IL2 (day 7).

Project description:We aimed to study the function of NKT, MAIT and V[gamma]9V[delta]2 T-cells in a population of people with cancer. To select appropraite immune parameters to study, we wanted to compare and contrast the expression of immune-related genes in human PBMCs following NKT, MAIT and V[gamma]9V[delta]2 T-cell activation. Aim: to compare the expression of immune-related genes in human PBMCs following NKT-cell activation with alpha-galactosylceramide, MAIT-cell activation with 5-amino-6-d-ribitylaminouracil/Methyl glyoxal, and V[gamma]9V[delta]2 T-cell activation with Bromohydrin pyrophosphate (BrHPP).
