Project description:T helper 2 (Th2) responses protect against pathogens while also driving allergic inflammation, yet how large-scale Th2 responses are generated in tissue context remains unclear. Here, we used quantitative imaging to investigate early Th2 differentiation within lymph nodes (LNs) following cutaneous allergen administration. Contrary to current models, we observed extensive activation and ‘macro-clustering’ of early Th2 cells with migratory type-2 dendritic cells (cDC2s) generating specialized Th2-promoting microenvironments. Macro-clustering was integrin mediated and promoted localized cytokine exchange among T cells to reinforce differentiation, which contrasted behavior during Th1 responses. Unexpectedly, formation of Th2 macro-clusters was dependent on the site of skin sensitization. Differences between sites were driven by divergent activation states of migratory cDC2 from different dermal tissues, with enhanced costimulatory molecule expression by cDC2 in Th2-generating LNs promoting prolonged T cell activation, macro-clustering, and cytokine sensing. Thus, generation of dedicated Th2 priming microenvironments through enhanced costimulatory molecule signaling initiates Th2 responses in vivo and occurs in a skin site-specific manner.

Project description:Formation of T helper 2 (Th2) responses has been attributed to low-grade T cell stimulation, yet how large-scale polyclonal Th2 responses are generated in vivo remains unclear. Here, we used quantitative imaging to investigate early Th2 differentiation within lymph nodes (LNs) following cutaneous allergen administration. Contrary to current models, Th2 differentiation was associated with enhanced T cell activation and extensive integrin-dependent 'macro-clustering' at the T-B border, which also contrasted clustering behavior seen during Th1 differentiation. Unexpectedly, formation of Th2 macro-clusters within LNs was highly dependent on the site of skin sensitization. Differences between sites were driven by divergent activation states of migratory cDC2 from different dermal tissues, with enhanced costimulatory molecule expression by cDC2 in Th2-generating LNs promoting T cell macro-clustering and cytokine sensing. Thus, generation of dedicated priming micro-environments through enhanced costimulatory molecule signaling initiates the generation of Th2 responses in vivo and occurs in a skin site-specific manner.

Project description:Imprinted macro ncRNAs such as Airn play an important role in silencing protein-coding genes in cis, macro ncRNAs could be a common feature in all imprinted gene clusters. By applying the RNA Expression on Tiling Array (RETA) technique, macro ncRNAs were found to be abundant in 26 known mouse genomic regions containing imprinted genes were detected. All well-known imprinted macro ncRNAs were up-regulated upon depletion of DNA methylation.

Project description:Functionally polarized CD4+ T helper (Th) cells such as Th1, Th2 and Th17 cells are central to the regulation of acquired immunity. However, the molecular mechanisms governing the maintenance of the polarized functions of Th cells remain unclear. GATA3, a master regulator of Th2 cell differentiation, initiates the expressions of Th2 cytokine genes and other Th2-specific genes. GATA3 also plays important roles in maintaining Th2 cell function and in continuous chromatin remodeling of Th2 cytokine gene loci. However, it is unclear whether continuous expression of GATA3 is required to maintain the expression of various other Th2-specific genes. In this report, genome-wide DNA gene expression profiling revealed that GATA3 expression is critical for the expression of a certain set of Th2-specific genes. We demonstrated that GATA3 dependency is reduced for some Th2-specific genes in fully developed Th2 cells compared to that observed in effector Th2 cells, whereas it is unchanged for other genes. Moreover, effects of a loss of GATA3 expression in Th2 cells on the expression of cytokine and cytokine receptor genes were examined in detail. A critical role of GATA3 in the regulation of Th2-specific gene expression is confirmed in in vivo generated antigen-specific memory Th2 cells. Therefore, GATA3 is required for the continuous expression of the majority of Th2-specific genes involved in maintaining the Th2 cell identity. Mock-transfected and GATA3 siRNA-transfected Th2 and Th2-4th cells are profiled for mRNA expression

Project description:To investigate the regulation of pathogenic Th2 (pTh2) cells and the role of histone deacetylase 1 (HDAC1) in the respective processes, we used a new in vitro protocol for generating pTh2 cells and performed qunatitative mass spectrometry analysis based on TMTpro 16plex multiplexing to analyze proteomes. We profiled classical Th2 and pTh2 cells from wild type (WT) mice and mice with a T cell-specific deletion of HDAC1 (HDAC1-cKO).

Project description:Naive CD4+ T cells, sorted from PBMCs of grass-fed beef cattle, were stimulated with anti-bovine CD3 under Th2 differentiation conditions with or without Ostertagia ostertagi (OO) protein extract. Th1 differentiation conditions were included for comparison. The effect of recombinant bovine IL-4 (rbIL-4) and weakening TCR signal strength on Th2 differentiation were also tested. Flow cytometry, qPCR and proteomic assay were performed to analyze the differentiated cells.
The majority of differentiated cells expressed IFNgamma (a hallmark cytokine for Th1) and a small percentage of cells expressed both IFNgamma and IL-4 (a hallmark cytokine for Th2), indicating the presence of Th0 cells, as previously reported in cattle. While weakening TCR signal strength reduced Th2 cell expansion, adding rbIL-4 or OO protein extract enhanced Th2 cell expansion but without significant changes in IFNgamma and IL-4 expression. Proteomic data predicted that, as in mice and humans, bovine Th2 differentiation results from three upstream stimulation with CD3, CD28, and IL-4, which were inhibited when OO protein extract was added into the Th2 differentiation media. Importantly, protein profiling indicated that the addition of rbIL-4 enhanced IL-4 signaling but inhibited IL-12 signaling. Soon, we are planning to explore if other cytokines like IL-10 can be applied to optimize this Th2 differentiation in vitro.
Naive bovine CD4+ T cells differentiate into a mixed population containing a high percentage of IFNgamma producing cells and a small percentage of Th0 cells. Furthermore, bovine Th2 differentiation is sensitive to regulation such as by OO or rbIL-4.

Project description:The transcriptional regulator Rbpj is involved in T-helper (TH) subset polarization, but its function in Treg cells remains unclear. Here we show that Treg-specific Rbpj deletion leads to splenomegaly and lymphadenopathy despite increased numbers of Treg cells with a polyclonal TCR repertoire. A specific defect of Rbpj-deficient Treg cells in controlling TH2 polarization and B cell responses was observed, leading to the spontaneous formation of germinal centers and a TH2-associated immunoglobulin class switch as well as T-cell polarization into TH2 effector cells. The observed phenotype was environment-dependent and could be induced by infection with parasitic nematodes. Rbpj-deficient Treg cells adopted open chromatin landscapes and gene expression profiles reminiscent of tissue-derived TH2-polarized Treg cells, with a prevailing footprint of transcription factor Gata-3. The over-expression of Ilt3 rendered Rbpj-deficient Treg cells incompatible to specifically restrain TH2 responses, finally leading to severe and fatal lymphoproliferative disease.
