Project description:Metastasis of human tumours to LNs is a universally negative prognostic factor. LN stromal cells (SCs) play a crucial role in enabling T cell responses, and since tumour metastases modulate their structure and function, this interaction may suppress immune responses to tumour antigens. However the SC subpopulations that respond to infiltration of malignant cells into human LNs have not been defined. Using microarray, we sought to assess gene expression profiles of two distinct SC subpopulations isolated from melanoma-infiltrated LNs. Our data demonstrate distinct profiles of two SC subpopulations isolated from melanoma-infiltrated LNs using fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS). FRCs express T cell modulating cytokines, chemokines and adhesion molecules, while CD34+ SCs predominantly express genes associated with ECM organization. Distinguishing between these two SC subpopulations in human LNs will now allow study of their respective impact on T cell responses to tumour antigens and clinical outcomes.

Project description:To determine the influence of primary tumors on pre-metastatic lymph nodes, we have employed whole genome microarray expression profiling as a discovery platform to identify gene signatures of stromal cells from tumor-draining lymph nodes, compared with normal lymph nodes. We subcutaneously inoculated C57BL/6 mice with the 4T1 mammary carcinoma. Two weeks later, tumor-draining lymph nodes were dissociated and stromal cells (CD45-) were sorted. Lymph nodes stromal cells from normal mice without tumor bearing were set as controls.

Project description:Regulatory T cells (Treg) are present in lymphoid and non-lymphoid tissues where they restrict immune activation, prevent autoimmunity and regulate inflammation. Treg in non-lymphoid tissues are typically resident, while those in lymph nodes (LNs) are considered to recirculate. However, Treg in LNs are not a homogenous population and circulation kinetics of different Treg subsets are poorly characterized. Furthermore, whether Treg can acquire memory T cell properties and persist for extended periods after their activation in LNs is unclear. Here, we used in situ labeling with a stabilized photoconvertible protein to uncover turnover rates of Treg in LNs in vivo. We found that while the majority of Treg in LNs recirculate, 10-20% are memory-like resident cells that remain in their respective LNs for weeks to months. Single cell RNA sequencing revealed that LN-resident cells are a functionally and ontogenetically heterogeneous population and share the same core residency gene signature with conventional CD4+ and CD8+ T cells. Resident cells in LNs did not actively proliferate and did not require continuous TCR signaling for their residency. Yet, resident and circulating Treg had distinct TCR repertoires, and each LN contained exclusive clonal subpopulations of resident Treg. Our results demonstrate that, similar to conventional T cells, Treg can form resident memory-like populations in LNs after adaptive immune responses. Specific and local suppression of immune responses by resident Treg in draining LNs might provide new therapeutic opportunities for the treatment of local chronic inflammatory conditions.

Project description:The development and migration of T cells in the thymus and peripheral tissues are crucial for maintaining adaptive immunity in mammals. However, the regulatory mechanisms underlying T cell development and thymocyte identity formation in pigs remain largely underexplored. Here, by integrating bulk and single-cell RNA-sequencing data, we investigated regulatory signatures of porcine thymus and lymph node T cells. The comparison of T cell subpopulations derived from porcine thymus and lymph nodes revealed that their transcriptomic differences were influenced more by tissue origin than by T cell phenotypes, and that lymph node cells exhibited greater transcriptional diversity than thymocytes. Through weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA), we identified the key modules and candidate hub genes regulating the heterogeneity of T cell subpopulations. Further, we integrated the porcine thymocyte dataset with peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) dataset to systematically compare transcriptomic differences between T cell types from different tissues. Based on single-cell datasets, we further identified the key transcription factors (TFs) responsible for maintaining porcine thymocyte identity and unveiled that these TFs coordinately regulated the entire T cell development process. Finally, we performed GWAS of cell type-specific differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and 30 complex traits, and found that the DEGs in thymus-related and peripheral blood-related cell types, especially CD4_SP cluster and CD8-related cluster, were significantly associated with pig productive and reproductive traits. Our findings provide an insight into T cell development and lay a foundation for further exploring the porcine immune system and genetic mechanisms underlying complex traits in pigs.

Project description:The aim of this study was to better understand the resolution of inflammation and fibrosis in the soft tissue of the knee joint and the draining iliac lymph nodes (LNs) after surgery in a mouse tibial implant model. To do this, we collected the joint tissues from operated mice at 5 different timepoints (3, 7, 14, 21, and 35 days), plus joint tissue from the contralateral, non-operated limb at 35 days as a negative control. We also collected iliac LNs at days 7 and 14 post implantation surgery from the operated and contralateral sides; as controls we used LNs from non-operated mice. Transcriptomic analysis of the joint soft tissues revealed molecular pathways active during postoperative tissue repair.

Project description:Antigen presenting dendritic cells (DCs) and monocytes capture and transport antigens from barrier tissues for presentation to antigen-specific T cells in the draining-lymph nodes (LNs). While DCs enter LNs through afferent lymphatics in a CCR7-dependent manner, how exactly antigen-carrying monocytes reach LNs is less clear since monocytes do not express CCR7 and can also enter LNs via the bloodstream. In steady state, and following injection of several PAMPs, scRNA-seq data on LN mononuclear phagocytes identified LN resident versus migratory type 1 and type 2 conventional (c)DCs despite downregulation of DC subset-defining transcripts, such as Xcr1, Clec9a, H2-Ab1, Sirpa, and Clec10a on migratory cDCs. Migratory cDCs gained expression of transcripts controlling cellular migration such as Ccr7, Ccl17, Ccl22, and Ccl5, while migratory monocytes expressed Ccr5 without Ccr7. Using two tracking methods and a gating strategy that clearly distinguishes migratory CD88hiCD26lo monocytes from CD88-CD26hi cDCs, we found that both captured antigens in the lung and migrated to lung-draining LNs. Using global and mixed-chimeric Ccl5-, Ccr2-, Ccr5-, Ccr7-, and Batf3-deficient mice, we found that CCR5+ monocytes follow CCL5-secreting migratory cDCs to reach the draining LN via lymphatic vessels. In a model of asthma, such recruited monocytes regulated the induction of type 2 immunity. Overall, our data suggest that CCL5-secreting migratory cDCs lay down the chemokine trail for CCR5+ antigen-presenting monocytes to reach draining lymph nodes and regulate adaptive immunity.

Project description:mRNA vaccines are emerging as a powerful vaccine platform as they are well-tolerated and scalable. Modified non-replicating mRNA encoding Influenza hemagglutinin and encapsulated in lipid nanoparticles (LNP) induced robust antibody and CD4 T cell responses after intramuscular or intradermal delivery in rhesus macaques. We investigated the local innate immune responses modulating such vaccine-induced immunity at the sites of immunization (skeletal muscle and skin) and their draining lymph nodes (LNs). Rapid mobilization of antigen presenting cells was found at the LNP/mRNA-injection sites and LNs. Dendritic cells efficiently internalized the LNPs, translated the mRNA cargo and upregulated co-stimulatory molecules. In addition, several type I interferon-inducible genes were expressed at the immunization sites and draining LNs. The innate immune activation was transient and resulted in priming of antigen-specific CD4+ T cells exclusively in the vaccine-draining LNs. Collectively, mRNA-based vaccines induce type I interferon-polarized innate immunity and antigen production by antigen presenting cells, which resulted potent vaccine-specific responses.
