Project description:Purpose: Identification of the differentially expressed genes and metabolic pathways in resting and activated WT and BATF-deficient Treg cells Methods: RNA was purified from resting of stimulated (aCD3-CD38/IL-2 for 48 h)Treg cells isolated from WT or Foxp3CreBatffl/fl mice Results: Loss of BATF promotes triacylglycerol biosynthesis in Treg cells. Conclusions: BATF is crucial to coordinate the suppressive function and triacylglycerol metabolism of Treg cells.

Project description:FoxP3 is a central regulator of immunological tolerance, controlling the development and function of regulatory T (Treg) cells. To dissect the complex processes orchestrated by FoxP3, we investigated impacts of three autoimmune disease-associated missense FoxP3 mutations in mice. The I363V and R397W mutations were loss-of-function mutations, causing multi-organ inflammation by globally compromising Treg cell physiology. By contrast, the A384T mutation induced a distinctive tissue-restricted inflammation by specifically impairing the ability of Treg cells to compete with pathogenic T cells in certain non-lymphoid tissues. Because BATF expression was down-regulated in A384T Treg cells, we hypothesized that its down-regulation could account for the A384T Treg cell phenotype and addressed whether BATF-deficient Treg cells are phenotypically similar to A384T Treg cells.

Project description:Upon antigen stimulation, the bioenergetic demands of T cells increase dramatically over the resting state. Although a role for the metabolic switch to glycolysis has been suggested to support increased anabolic activities and facilitate T cell growth and proliferation, whether cellular metabolism controls T cell lineage choices remains poorly understood. Here we report that the glycolytic pathway is actively regulated during the differentiation of inflammatory TH17 and Foxp3-expressing regulatory T cells (Treg), and controls cell fate determination. TH17 but not Treg-inducing conditions resulted in strong upregulation of the glycolytic activity and induction of glycolytic enzymes. Blocking glycolysis inhibited TH17 development while promoting Treg cell generation. Moreover, the transcription factor hypoxia-inducible factor 1a (HIF1a) was selectively expressed in TH17 cells and its induction required signaling through mTOR, a central regulator of cellular metabolism. HIF1a-dependent transcriptional program was important for mediating glycolytic activity, thereby contributing to the lineage choices between TH17 and Treg cells. Lack of HIF1a resulted in diminished TH17 development but enhanced Treg differentiation, and protected mice from autoimmune CNS inflammation. Our studies demonstrate that HIF1a-dependent glycolytic pathway orchestrates a metabolic checkpoint for the differentiation of TH17 and Treg cells. Naïve CD4 T cells from wild-type and HIF1a-deficient mice (in triplicates each group) were differentiated under TH17 conditions for 2.5 days, and RNA was analyzed by microarrays.

Project description:Nuclear factor Foxp3 determines regulatory T (Treg) cell fate and function via mechanisms that remain unclear. Here we investigate the nature of Foxp3-mediated gene regulation in suppressing autoimmunity and antitumor immune response. Contrasting with previous models, we find that Foxp3-chromatin binding is regulated by Treg activation states, tumor microenvironment, and antigen and cytokine stimulations. Proteomics studies uncovered dynamic proteins within the Foxp3 proximity upon TCR or IL-2 receptor signaling in vitro, reflecting intricate interactions among Foxp3, signal transducers, and chromatin. Pharmacological inhibition and genetic knockdown experiments indicate that NFAT and AP-1 protein Batf are required for enhanced Foxp3-chromatin binding in activated Treg cells and tumor-infiltrating Treg cells to modulate target gene expression. Furthermore, mutations at Foxp3 DNA-binding domain destabilize Foxp3-chromatin association. These representative settings delineate context-dependent Foxp3-chromatin interaction, suggesting that Foxp3 associates with chromatin by hijacking DNA-binding proteins resulting from Treg activation or differentiation, which is stabilized by direct Foxp3-DNA binding, to dynamically regulate Treg cell function according to immunological contexts.

Project description:Th17 cells secrete IL-17A, IL-17F, IL-21, and IL-22 cytokines that are critical in mediating inflammation and protecting the host from microorganisms infection. The basic leucine zipper transcription factor ATF-like (Batf) contributes to the transcriptional programming of multiple effector T cells, and is required for Th17 cell development. Here, we have interrogated mechanisms by which Batf promotes and stabilizes Th17 cell phenotype. We have shown that in vitro differentiated Th17 cells have increased expression of Th1 and Treg signature genes in the absence of Batf. In addition, Citrobacter rodentium infected Batf-deficient (Batf KO) mice fail to clear the infection, and that is correlated with diminished IL-17A and IL-22 cytokine production and increased Foxp3 and Ifng expression compared to WT mice. We find that Batf sustains Th17 phenotype in long-term culture conditions by suppressing Th1- and Treg-specific gene expression. Mechanistically, we reveal that Batf negatively regulates IL-2-STAT5 signaling and modulates STAT5 binding at the Ifng and Foxp3 gene loci thus suppressing Th1-Treg phenotype in Th17 cell development. Inhibition of STAT5 DNA binding activity in Batf KO Th17 cells was able to repress Ifng and Foxp3 expression compared to control-treated cells. Moreover, STAT5 cooperates with transcription factors Ets1 and Runx1 to mediate epigenetic modification and regulate gene expression. Thus, our study has revealed an essential function of Batf in modulating the IL-2-STAT5 signaling to promote and stabilize Th17 cell development.
