Comparative analysis of intra- and extracellular vesicles from cytotoxic CD8+ αβ T cells and γδ T cells

ABSTRACT: Although belonging to different branches of the immune system, cytotoxic CD8+ αβ T cells and γδ T cells utilize common cytolytic effectors including FasL, granzymes, perforin and granulysin. The effector proteins are stored in different subsets of lysosome-related effector vesicles (LREVs) and released to the immunological synapse upon target cell encounter. EVs of activated and expanded cytotoxic CD8+ αβ T cells or γδ T cells were enriched from culture supernatants by differential and ultracentrifugation and characterized by a comparative proteomic profiling with tandem mass tags (TMT10plex).

<h4>Background</h4>Although belonging to different branches of the immune system, cytotoxic CD8<sup>+</sup> αβ T cells and γδ T cells utilize common cytolytic effectors including FasL, granzymes, perforin and granulysin. The effector proteins are stored in different subsets of lysosome-related effector vesicles (LREVs) and released to the immunological synapse upon target cell encounter. Notably, in activated cells, LREVs and potentially other vesicles are continuously produced and released as e ...[more]

Project description:Abstract: Bovine tuberculosis (bTB), caused by infection with Mycobacterium bovis, continues to cause significant issues for the global agriculture industry as well as for human health. An incomplete understanding of the host immune response contributes to the challenges of control and eradication of this zoonotic disease. In this study, high-throughput bulk RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) was used to characterize differential gene expression in γδ T cells – a subgroup of T cells which bridge innate and adaptive immunity and have specific anti-mycobacterial response mechanisms. γδ T cell subsets are classified on the basis of expression of a pathogen-recognition receptor known as Workshop Cluster 1 (WC1) and we hypothesised that bTB infection may alter the phenotype and function of specific γδ T cell subsets. Peripheral blood was collected from naturally M. bovis-infected (positive for single intradermal comparative tuberculin test (SICTT) and IFN-γ ELISA) and age- and sex-matched, non-infected control Holstein-Friesian cattle. γδ T subsets were isolated using fluorescence activated cell sorting (n = 10-12 per group) and high-quality RNA extracted from each purified lymphocyte subset (WC1.1+, WC1.2+, WC1- and γδ-) was used to generate transcriptomes using bulk RNA-seq (n = 6 per group, representing a total of 48 RNA-seq libraries). Relatively low numbers of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were observed between most cell subsets; however, 163 genes were significantly differentially expressed in the M. bovis-infected compared to control groups for the WC1.1+ γδ T cell compartment (Log 2 FC ≥ 1.5 and FDR P adj ≤ 0.1). The majority of these DEGs (146) were significantly increased in expression in cells from the bTB+ cattle and included genes encoding transcription factor (TBX21 and EOMES), chemokine receptors (CCR5 and CCR7), granzymes (GZMA, GZMM and GZMH) and multiple killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptors (KIR) indicating cytotoxic functions. Biological pathway overrepresentation analysis revealed enrichment of genes with multiple immune functions including cell activation, proliferation, chemotaxis and cytotoxicity of lymphocytes. In conclusion, WC1.1+ γδ T cells have been proposed as major regulatory cell subset in cattle, and we provide evidence for preferential differential activation of this specific subset in cattle naturally infected with M. bovis. Understanding the role of these critical immune cells during mycobacterial infection contributes to our understanding of host immunity to bTB and identifies multiple novel cytotoxic functions of WC1.1+ γδ T cells.

Project description:Mycobacterium bovis (M. bovis) causes bovine tuberculosis (bTB). The challenges in controlling and eradicating this zoonotic disease are compounded by our incomplete understanding of the host immune response. In this study, we used high-throughput bulk RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) to characterise the response profiles of γδ T cells to antigenic stimulation using purified protein derivate from M. bovis (PPDb). γδ T cells are a subgroup of T cells that bridge innate and adaptive immunity and have known anti-mycobacterial response mechanisms. These cells are usually classified based on the expression of a pathogen-recognition receptor, Workshop Cluster 1 (WC1), into two main subsets: WC1.1+ and WC1.2+. Previous studies have identified a preferential transcriptomic response in WC1.1+ cells during natural bTB infection, suggesting a subset-specific response to mycobacterial antigens. This follow on study tested the hypothesis that a subset specific response would also be apparent from γδ T cells from infected cattle after repeat stimulation. Peripheral blood was collected from Holstein-Friesian cattle naturally infected with M. bovis, confirmed by a single intradermal comparative tuberculin test (SICTT) and IFN-γ ELISA and stimulated with 10 μg/ml PPDb for 6 hours. After whole blood stimulation, WC1.1+ and WC1.2+ γδ T cell subsets were isolated using magnetic cell sorting (n = 5 per group). High-quality RNA was extracted from each purified lymphocyte subset (WC1.1+ and WC1.2+) to generate transcriptomes using bulk RNA sequencing, resulting in 20 RNA-seq libraries. Transcriptomic analysis revealed 111 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) common to both WC1.1+ and WC1.2+ γδ T cell compartments, including upregulation of IL1A, IL1B, IL6, IL17A, IL17F, and IFNG genes (FDR-Padj. < 0.1). Interestingly, the WC1.2+ cells showed upregulation of IL10, CCL22, and GZMA (log2FC ≥ 1.5, and FDR-Padj. < 0.1). In conclusion, while WC1.1+ and WC1.2+ γδ T cells exhibit a conserved inflammatory response to PPDb, differences in anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial gene expression between these cell subsets provide new insights into their effector functions in response to mycobacterial antigens.
