Abstract:
Abstract Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDA) has a low 5 year survival rate of 8.5% because of its late diagnosis and resistance to the existing therapies. Patients with PDA who are microsatellite stable do not respond to check point blockade immunotherapy due to impaired T cell infiltration, which is mediated by the CXCL12-coat on cancer cells (Wang Z, et al. bioRχiv). In mouse hepatic metastases established with PDA cells from the KPC model of PDA, Krt19-CRISPR/Cas9-edited tumors lacking the CXCL12-coat showed a type I interferon (IFN) response as well as T cell infiltration and activation compared to the control scramble tumors. By RNA FISH, we found that IFNb1 is dominantly produced by CD40+ cells, and not by SiglecH+ plasmacytoid dendritic cells. RNA sequencing data showed up-regulation of Cd40lg in the Krt19-edited tumors compared to the scramble tumors. Administration of antagonistic anti-CD40 antibody prior cancer cells inoculation abolished IFNb1 production, T cell accumulation and activation. To confirm the role of CD40, administration of agonistic anti-CD40 antibody to mice bearing wild type PDA tumors elicited intra-tumoral IFNb1 production in CD11b+ CD11c+ myeloid cells. The T cell infiltration and activation induced by agonistic anti-CD40 antibody treatment sensitized both subcutaneous pancreatic tumors and hepatic metastases to anti-PD1 treatment. These findings indicate that the expression of CD40L elicits an intra-tumoral type I IFN response that is required for immune control of PDA tumors in which CXCR4 signaling is impaired.

Abstract:
Comparative transcriptomics between differentiating human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) and developing mouse neurons offers a powerful approach to compare genetic and epigenetic pathways in human and mouse neurons. To analyze human Purkinje cell (PC) differentiation, we optimized a protocol to generate human pluripotent stem cell-derived Purkinje cells (hPSC-PCs) that formed synapses when cultured with mouse cerebellar glia and granule cells and fired large calcium currents, measured with the genetically encoded calcium indicator jRGECO1a. To directly compare global gene expression of hPSC-PCs with developing mouse PCs, we used translating ribosomal affinity purification (TRAP). As a first step, we usedTg(Pcp2-L10a-Egfp)TRAP mice to profile actively transcribed genes in developing postnatal mouse PCs and used metagene projection to identify the most salient patterns of PC gene expression over time. We then created a transgenicPcp2-L10a-EgfpTRAP hPSC line to profile gene expression in differentiating hPSC-PCs, finding that the key gene expression pathways of differentiated hPSC-PCs most closely matched those of late juvenile mouse PCs (P21). Comparative bioinformatics identified classical PC gene signatures as well as novel mitochondrial and autophagy gene pathways during the differentiation of both mouse and human PCs. In addition, we identified genes expressed in hPSC-PCs but not mouse PCs and confirmed protein expression of a novel human PC gene, CD40LG, expressed in both hPSC-PCs and native human cerebellar tissue. This study therefore provides a direct comparison of hPSC-PC and mouse PC gene expression and a robust method for generating differentiated hPSC-PCs with human-specific gene expression for modeling developmental and degenerative cerebellar disorders.

Abstract:
Abstract Oxidative stress is a common manifestation in chronic inflammation and closely associated with autoimmune diseases. Impaired balance between oxidative stress and antioxidant systems exhibits an important impact on pathogenesis of immune-mediated nephritis. Using anti-GBM induced nephritis mouse model, we have identified a group of redox related genes dysregulated in mouse kidney upon anti-GBM antibody challenge. In this study, we investigated the anti-oxidative effect of glutathione s-transferase mu 2 (Gstm2) on immune-mediated nephritis. Human GSTM2 gene was transduced into mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) and hGSTM2-MSCs were injected to anti-GBM antibody challenged 129/svj mice. Mouse blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and proteinuria were measured to evaluate renal function change and renal histopathological changes were appraised. We found the Gstm2 could alleviate the renal inflammatory damage by suppressing expression of inflammatory chemokines, CCL2, IL1β and IL6 to reduce macrophage and T lymphocyte infiltration. Gstm2 improved renal function by reducing BUN and proteinuria. Moreover, hGSTM2-MSCs significantly reduced the apoptosis of tubular cell by regulating the expression of anti-apoptotic genes (BCL2 and CD40LG) and hGSTM2-MSCs resisted oxidative stress by increasing the expression of catalase and glutathione peroxidase 1. In summary, Gstm2 exhibits protective effect on immune-mediated nephritis by inhibiting inflammatory damage and oxidative stress during inflammatory process.

Abstract:
Abstract We have described a posttranscriptional pathway of induced mRNA stability that occurs at late times of T cell activation and is engaged by the binding of a polypyrimidine tract-binding protein (PTBP1) complex to the 3′UTR of the CD40L transcript. We explored the in vivo role of this pathway by generating a mouse bearing a deletion of the CD40L stability element (termed CD40LΔ5) and found that Tfh cells harboring the stability defect expressed approximately 60% of WT CD40L. Importantly, this decrease in CD40L corresponded to a poorly elaborated germinal center (GC) response which included significantly decreased levels of switched antibodies, antibody-secreting cells, GL7+ B cells and differentiated GC B cell subsets. In contrast, there was little difference in either somatic hypermutation or affinity maturation between B cells from WT compared to CD40LD5 mice. Notably, both the number and percentage of early memory B cells and plasmablasts were significantly decreased indicating that CD40L expression linked to mRNA stability was critical for B cell differentiation. To understand the impact of this stability pathway on gene expression, CD19+ B cells from CD40LD5 immunized mice were transcriptionally profiled using RNAseq and pathways associated with cell survival and proliferation were downregulated and apoptotic pathways upregulated compared to WT B cells. Importantly, the level of AID mRNA was unchanged whereas c-myc expression was significantly reduced in GL7+ B cells. Together these findings reveal that the CD40L stability element plays a critical role in regulating CD40L expression in Tfh cells, which in turn supports the optimal proliferation and cell survival of high affinity GC B cells and the differentiation of B cell subsets.

Abstract:
Elevated expression of CD47 in some cancers is associated with poor survival related to its function as an innate immune checkpoint when expressed on tumor cells. In contrast, elevated CD47 expression in cutaneous melanomas is associated with improved survival. Previous studies implicated protective functions of CD47 expressed by immune cells in the melanoma tumor microenvironment. RNA sequencing analysis of responses induced by CD3 and CD28 engagement on wild type and CD47-deficient Jurkat T lymphoblast cells identified additional regulators of T cell function that were also CD47-dependent in mouse CD8 T cells. MYCN mRNA expression was upregulated in CD47-deficient cells but downregulated in CD47-deficient cells following activation. CD47 also regulated alternative splicing that produces two N-MYC isoforms. The CD47 ligand thrombospondin-1 inhibited expression of these MYCN mRNA isoforms, as well as induction of the oncogenic decoy MYCN opposite strand (MYCNOS) RNA during T cell activation. Analysis of mRNA expression data for melanomas in The Cancer Genome Atlas identified a significant coexpression of MYCN with CD47 and known regulators of CD8 T cell function. Thrombospondin-1 inhibited the induction of TIGIT, CD40LG, and MCL1 mRNAs following T cell activation in vitro. Increased mRNA expression of these T cell transcripts and MYCN in melanomas was associated with improved overall survival.

Abstract:
Interaction between CD40 on B cells and CD40 ligand (CD40L) on T cells has been shown to mediate T-cell contact help for B-cell proliferation, differentiation, and immunoglobulin isotype switching. It has recently been shown that cross-linking CD40 on mouse B cells induces germ line gamma1 and epsilon transcripts and that interleukin-4 synergizes with CD40 signaling to further induce these germ line transcripts. Germ line transcripts have been shown to be required for class switch recombination. Here we show that signaling via CD40 increases expression of a transiently transfected luciferase reporter plasmid driven by the germ line Cgamma1 promoter in M12.4.1 B-lymphoma cells. By linker-scanning mutation analysis of the promoter, we have identified a CD40-responsive region (CD40RR) which is able to confer inducibility by CD40L to a minimal c-fos promoter. The CD40RR contains three binding sites for NF-kappaB/Rel proteins which are each required for maximal induction of CD40RR activity by CD40L. Binding of the NF-kappaB/Rel proteins p50, p65, c-Rel, and RelB to the CD40RR is induced by CD40 signaling in M12.4.1 cells and in splenic B cells. Cotransfection of expression plasmids for p50 and p65 or p50 and RelB, but not c-Rel, into M12.4.1 cells transactivates the CD40RR and the germ line gamma1 promoter. These data demonstrate that NF-kappaB Rel proteins activated by CD40 ligation play an important role in induction of the germ line Cgamma1 promoter.

Abstract:
Abstract Background Angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AITL) is proposed to be initiated by age-related clonal hematopoiesis (ACH) with TET2mutations, whereas the G17V RHOA mutation in TET2-mutated immature cells facilitates development of T follicular helper (T FH)-like tumor cells. Notably, we and others have reported that immune cells derived from ACH with TET2 mutations infiltrate AITL tissues. However, how ACH-derived immune cells function as a microenvironmental niche in AITL remains largely unknown. Objective To elucidate the role of TET2-mutated immune cells in AITL tumorigenesis. Methods The G17V RHOA transgenic mice were crossed with mice lacking Tet2 in all blood cells (Mx-Crex Tet2f/f, A) and in T cells (Cd4-Crex Tet2f/f, B), respectively. Single-cell RNA sequencing (Sc-seq) was performed on >60,000 cells from AITL in mice (AITLm, n=2) and human (AITLh, n=5), and their controls to reveal the immune profiles. We used Seurat and Monocle3 pipelines for analysis of Sc-seq. Whole genome bisulfite sequencing (WGBS) was used to analyze the methylome of germinal center B (GCB) cells in AITLm and control. Results AITLm occurred only in A, but not in B. Then, we intraperitoneally transplanted Cd4 + tumor-containing cells together with various lineages of immune cells sorted from AITLm into nude mice. AITLm developed only when B-lineage cells were cotransplanted with Cd4 + tumor-containing cells. Unsupervised clustering of the Sc-seq data identified 6 T-, 6 B- and 3 myeloid clusters in AITLm. B-cell clusters were annotated into naïve B-, memory B-, GCB-, and plasma clusters along the B-cell differentiation through Geneset variable analysis (GSVA) and trajectory analysis. We found that the aberrant GCB clusters, simultaneously exhibiting DZ-like proliferation markers (Aicda and Mki67) and LZ-like activation markers (Cd40, Cd83) were markedly expanded in AITLm. Geneset Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) revealed that MYC targets and other signaling pathways involved in cell proliferation were highly enriched in the GCB clusters in AITLm. WGBS showed that the number of hypermethylated regions (HyperDMRs) was markedly higher than that of hypomethylated regions (HypoDMRs) at all the regions; promoters, exons, introns, untranslated and intergenic regions. Among HyperDMRs, Atp13a2, Pdzd2, Rapgef4, Irf4 and Egr3 expressions were downregulated in the GCB clusters of Sc-seq in AITLm. Remarkably, the number of BCR clones in GCB of AITLm were significantly less than those in controls. In addition, in AITLm mice, the number of somatic mutations in GCB cells was significantly higher than that in T FH-like tumor cells. Remarkably, we detected unique core histone mutations in the GCB cells of AITLm, including the recurrent p.Ser87Asn Histone3 mutations. Next, In silico network analysis using Sc-seq data between GCB and T FH-like clusters identified that 11 interactions, including Cd40-Cd40lg were significantly enhanced in AITLm compared to controls. Flowcytomeric analysis revealed that cell-surface expression of Cd40 were significantly higher in the GCB cells of AITLm than those of control. Pathologically, the follicular structure was disrupted in AITLm. Consequently, Cd40lg +Cd4 +tumor cells and Cd40 +Cd19 + cells were both diffusely distributed and sometimes localized adjacent to each other. Finally, administration of an anti-Cd40lg antibody prolonged the survival of nude mice transplanted with AITLm. In AITLh with TET2 mutations, unsupervised clustering of Sc-seq identified T-, B-, and myeloid-cell clusters and a cluster characterized by proliferative markers. In B-lineage cells, 9 clusters were re-clustered and annotated to naïve or memory B-, GCB- and plasmablast clusters under the same manner of mouse data. Gene ontology analysis from differential expression genes in each cluster showed that the GCB- and CD40-related genesets were enriched not only in the GCB cluster but also in the naive to memory B clusters. Furthermore, the AITL-B-specific geneset, which referred from genes (CD40, CD83, AICDA, MKI67) highly expressed in the GCB cluster in AITLm was enriched not only in the GCB cluster, but also in the naive to memory B clusters in AITLh. Conclusion This study suggests a new concept that ACH-derived GCB cells with TET2 mutations can undergo independent clonal evolution and function as microenvironmental cells to support tumorigenesis in AITL via the CD40-CD40LG axis.

Abstract:
Abstract We have previously shown that regulation of CD40L occurs in part through a posttranscriptional mechanism of activation-induced mRNA stability. This pathway is engaged at extended times of activation and is mediated by the binding of a polypyrimidine tract binding protein (PTBP1) complex to the 3′UTR of the CD40L mRNA. This process leads to sustained expression of CD40L on CD4 T cells at a time when overall transcript levels are low. To assess the role of this regulatory pathway on an ongoing immune response we engineered a novel knock-in mouse (CD40LΔ5) that lacked the PTBP1 stability element and challenged mice with NP-KLH and SRBCs. Examination of splenic subsets prior to immunization revealed no difference in number or ratio between mutant and WT mice. However, after immunization there were significant decreases in T-dependent antibodies (Abs) and these differences were exacerbated with secondary challenge. In contrast, there were no differences in Ab response to a T-independent antigen. In total, CD40LΔ5 mice displayed significant changes in multiple aspects of the GC response including reduced levels of plasma cells, memory cells and GL7+ B cells. However, there were no observed differences in the number of Tfh cells between mutant and WT mice. Evaluation of GC structure in splenic sections revealed highly disordered GCs in CD40LΔ5 compared to WT mice at 8 days following immunization with SRBCs. Therefore, we hypothesize that the T cell activation-induced stabilization of the CD40L message and the subsequent surface expression of the protein is critical for development of a robust GC response and this occurs on one level by directly impacting the structural architecture of the GC.

We recently explored the in vivo role of this pathway by generating a genetically modified mouse (CD40LΔ5) bearing a deletion of the PTBP1 stability element. We found that the CD40LΔ5 mice display a dysfunctional germinal center (GC) response including significantly decreased levels of isotype switched antibodies, antibody-secreting cells, memory B cells and GL7+ GC B cells. To extend our earlier findings we measured affinity maturation of antibodies in response to the hapten NP and found a loss of high affinity binding that corresponded to reduced numbers of targeted VH mutations known to be associated with high affinity binding. However, there were no discernible differences in the overall number of mutations across the VH segment, suggesting that the CD40LΔ5 pathway may have a greater effect on the selection and/or expansion of high-affinity B cells rather than on the somatic hypermutation (SHM) in general. To identify how the CD40L mRNA stability pathway impacted B cells during an immune response, CD19+ B cells from immunized mice were transcriptionally profiled using RNAseq. Expression of genes associated with cell survival and proliferation were found to be down-regulated and apoptotic genes up-regulated in CD40LΔ5 B cells compared to WT cells. Together these finding are consistent with the Δ5 stability element playing a critical role in the proliferation and cell survival of high affinity GC B cells through a pathway of enhanced expression of CD40L in CD4 T cells.

Abstract:
La terapia genica di cellule staminali ematopoietiche (HSC) ha prodotto benefici clinici in diversi pazienti affetti da una varietà di malattie genetiche. Tuttavia, l’uso di vettori che si integrano nel genoma in modo semi-casuale pone il rischio di mutagenesi inserzionale e di una espressione del transgene ectopica/non regolata. Quest’ultimo problema è particolarmente rilevante quando si trattano geni strettamente regolati attivi sulla proliferazione cellulare, come il gene CD40LG, la cui espressione sulle cellule T attivate porta all’attivazione contatto-dipendente delle cellule B, alla loro proliferazione ed allo scambio di classe delle immunoglobuline. Poichè le sue mutazioni causano l’immunodeficienza legata all’X con iper-IgM (HIGM1), il trasferimento genico in HSC è stato proposto come potenziale trattamento per questa sindrome. Anche se piccole quantità di cellule trasdotte hanno ripristinato la funzione immunitaria umorale e cellulare in un modello murino di HIGM1, l’espressione costitutiva di CD40LG in timociti o in cellule T periferiche ha portato a linfoproliferazioni, molte delle quali sono progredite a linfom. Le strategie di riparazione genica che preservano il controllo fisiologico dell’espressione del gene corretto potrebbero quindi rappresentare un approccio più promettente per il trattamento di HIGM1. In questo studio sfruttiamo il meccanismo Homology Directed Repair (HDR) per la correzione in situ della maggior parte delle mutazioni responsabili della sindrome HIGM1 presenti nel gene CD40L, con l’obiettivo di ristabilirne la funzione e il controllo dell’espressione. In particolare sfruttiamo il sistema CRISPR/Cas9 per promuovere l’integrazione sito-specifica di una copia funzionale di parte del gene CD40L a valle del suo promotore endogeno, correggendo così la maggior parte delle mutazioni responsabili della malattia. Dato che il difetto genetico non è deleterio per le cellule T, questo tipo di malattia ci offre l’opportunità unica di sviluppare una terapia genica basata sulla correzione di cellule T autologhe. Al fine di stabilire quali sono le dosi terapeutiche e le condizioni di trapianto necessarie per ottenere la ricostituzione immunitaria e il ripristino delle funzioni immunologiche con cellule corrette, abbiamo infuso diverse dosi di cellule T WT in topi HIGM1 pre-condizionati o meno con diversi regimi linfodepletanti ed eseguito trapianti competitivi di cellule staminali ematopoietiche WT e Cd40lg - / - nel modello animale. Mentre l’ analisi del sangue periferico ha dimostrato la persistenza a lungo termine di cellule T in tutte le condizioni, sono stati ottenuti livelli di attecchimento più elevati nei topi trapiantati dopo il trattamento chemioterapico con ciclofosfamide (CPA). Tutti i topi trapiantati hanno mostrato un parziale ripristino della risposta IgG specifica dopo immunizzazione con TNP-KLH, ma è stato osservato un ripristino più elevato nei topi pre-condizionati con CPA. Questi topi hanno anche mostrato la presenza di centri germinativi nella milza. Topi HIGM1 ricostituiti con dosi crescenti di HSPC WT hanno mostrato un ripristino dose-dipendente della risposta immunitaria T dipendente. In particolare, abbiamo dimostrato che il 10% di HSPC funzionali è sufficiente a ripristinare parzialmente la capacità di produrre anticorpi specifici contro diversi antigeni oltre che ad attenuare l'infezione in topi HIGM1 inoculati con il patogeno Pneumocystis murina. Il nostro obiettivo futuro è quello di dimostrare il ripristino della risposta immunitaria contro l'infezione da pneumocystis murina in topi HIGM1 trapiantati con cellule T CD4 + WT. In caso di successo, i nostri risultati saranno strumentali per stabilire il potenziale terapeutico di un approccio di correzione genica basato sulle cellule T per il trattamento della sindrome HIGM1 che potrebbe fungere da terapia ponte per una terapia definitiva basata sul trapianto di HSPC corrette.
Background The X-linked hyper-IgM syndrome type I (HIGM1) is caused by inactivating mutations in the CD40 ligand gene (CD40LG) that disrupt the T cell helper function on B cells and macrophages. This disease represents an ideal candidate for a gene correction strategy because preclinical studies of Hematopoietic Stem Cell (HSC) gene therapy have already shown i) evidence of potential efficacy even with few amounts of transduced cells; ii) critical safety issues due to unregulated transgene expression. Since in HIGM1 the genetic defect is not lethal to T cells, we aim to apply our gene editing strategy on autologous T cells that could be used to provide immediate therapeutic benefit to the patients by resolving pre-existing infections prior to a definitive HSPC transplant. Methods To establish which are the therapeutic threshold levels and transplant conditions required to achieve immune reconstitution and functional immunologic restoration with corrected cells, we infused different doses of WT T cells into HIGM1 mice pre-conditioned or not with different lymphodepleting regimens and performed competitive transplants of WT and Cd40lg-/- HSPC in the mouse model. Results While longitudinal blood analyses showed a long-term, stable T cell engraftment in all the conditions, highest engraftment rates were obtained in mice transplanted after chemotherapy treatment with cyclophosphamide (CPA). All the transplanted mice showed a partial rescue of the antigen-specific IgG response after immunization with Keyhole Limpet Hemocyanin (TNP-KLH) but a higher rescue was observed in mice pre-conditioned with CPA. These mice also showed the presence of TNP-KLH specific IgG producing B cells and germinal centers within splenic lymphoid follicles. HIGM1 mice reconstituted with increasing proportions of WT HSPC displayed a dose-dependent rescue of the T cell mediated immune response. In particular we found that 10% of WT HSPC is sufficient to partially restore serologic immunity against different antigens as well as to attenuate infection in HIGM1 mice challenged with Pneumocystis murina. Conclusions Our current efforts are aimed to demonstrate functional restoration of the immune response against Pneumocystis murina infection in HIGM1 mice that received adoptive transfer of WT CD4+ T cells. If successful, our findings will be instrumental to establish the therapeutic potential of a T cell gene correction approach for the treatment of the HIGM1 disease that could act as a bridge therapy to the HSPC-based strategy.
