Abstract

Activation-induced marker (AIM) assays have proven to be an accessible and rapid means of antigen-specific T-cell detection. The method typically involves short-term incubation of whole blood or peripheral blood mononuclear cells with antigens of interest, where autologous antigen-presenting cells process and present peptides in complex with major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules. Recognition of peptide-MHC complexes by T-cell receptors then induces upregulation of activation markers on the T cells that can be detected by flow cytometry. In this review, we highlight the most widely used activation markers for assays in the literature while identifying nuances and potential downfalls associated with the technique. We provide a summary of how AIM assays have been used in both discovery science and clinical studies, including studies of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) immunity. This review primarily focuses on AIM assays using human blood or peripheral blood mononuclear cell samples, with some considerations noted for tissue-derived T cells and nonhuman samples. AIM assays are a powerful tool that enables detailed analysis of antigen-specific T-cell frequency, phenotype and function without needing to know the precise antigenic peptides and their MHC restriction elements, enabling a wider analysis of immunity generated following infection and/or vaccination.

Abstract

Diese Arbeit untersucht Proteine des phytopathogenen Pilzes Claviceps purpurea, die am Abbau von Sauerstoffradikalen (AOS) beteiligt sind. Der erste Teil dieser Arbeit beschreibt die Klonierung und Charakterisierung eines fuer eine sekretierte Cu,Zn Superoxid Dismutase(SOD)kodierenden Gens. Die Ausschaltung dieses Gens fuehrte zu einer leichten Reduktion des axenischen sowie des pathogenen Wachstums, beeintraechtigte jedoch nicht entscheidend die Faehigkeit des Pilzes, Roggenovarien zu kolonisieren. Der zweite Teil behandelt die Charakterisierung eine Katalase-Gens aus dem Gen-Cluster fuer die Alkaloid-Biosynthese. Das Fehlen der Katalase verminderte nicht die Pathogenitaet, fuehrte jedoch zu einer fast vollstaendigen Reduktion des Alkaloid-Gehalts der Sklerotien. Der dritte Teil der Arbeit zielte auf die Entdeckung neuer AOS-abbauender Enzyme unter Verwendung differenzieller Genexpression in An- und Abwesenheit von Kupfer, welches mittels der Fenton-Reaktion AOS produziert.

Abstract

© 2021 The Authors., The third edition of Flow Cytometry Guidelines provides the key aspects to consider when performing flow cytometry experiments and includes comprehensive sections describing phenotypes and functional assays of all major human and murine immune cell subsets. Notably, the Guidelines contain helpful tables highlighting phenotypes and key differences between human and murine cells. Another useful feature of this edition is the flow cytometry analysis of clinical samples with examples of flow cytometry applications in the context of autoimmune diseases, cancers as well as acute and chronic infectious diseases. Furthermore, there are sections detailing tips, tricks and pitfalls to avoid. All sections are written and peer-reviewed by leading flow cytometry experts and immunologists, making this edition an essential and state-of-the-art handbook for basic and clinical researchers., Hyun-Dong Chang is supported by the Dr. Rolf M. Schwiete Foundation. Susanne Melzer and Attila Tarnok thank De Novo Software for providing FCS Express. Enrico Lugli is supported by a grant from the Associazione Italiana per la Ricerca sul Cancro (AIRC IG20676).

Abstract

Human PBMC-based assays are often used as biomarkers for the diagnosis and prognosis of disease, as well as for the prediction and tracking of response to biological therapeutics. However, the development and use of PBMC-based biomarker assays is often limited by poor reproducibility. Complex immunological assays can be further complicated by variation in cell handling before analysis, especially when using cryopreserved cells. Variation in postthaw viability is further increased if PBMC isolation and cryopreservation are done more than a few hours after collection. There is currently a lack of evidence-based standards for the minimal PBMC viability or "fitness" required to ensure the integrity and reproducibility of immune cell-based assays. In this study, we use an "induced fail" approach to examine the effect of thawed human PBMC fitness on four flow cytometry-based assays. We found that cell permeability-based viability stains at the time of thawing did not accurately quantify cell fitness, whereas a combined measurement of metabolic activity and early apoptosis markers did. Investigation of the impact of different types and levels of damage on PBMC-based assays revealed that only when cells were >60-70% live and apoptosis negative did biomarker values cease to be determined by cell fitness rather than the inherent biology of the cells. These data show that, to reproducibly measure immunological biomarkers using cryopreserved PBMCs, minimal acceptable standards for cell fitness should be incorporated into the assay protocol., (Copyright © 2024 The Authors.)

Abstract

Flow-cytometric immune phenotyping is influenced by cryopreservation and inter-laboratory variability limiting comparability in multicenter studies. We assessed a system of optimized, pre-mixed dry-antibody panel tubes requiring small amounts of whole blood for validity, reliability and challenges in a Canadian multicenter study (POSITIVE) with long-distance sample shipping, using standardized protocols. Thirty-seven children awaiting solid-organ transplant were enrolled for parallel immune-phenotyping with both validated, optimized in-house panels and the dry-antibody system. Samples were collected before, 3 and 12 months post-transplant. Quality-assurance measures and congruence of phenotypes were compared using Bland-Altman comparisons, linear regression and group comparisons. Samples showed excellent lymphocyte viability (mean 94.8 %) and recovery when processed within 30 h. Comparing staining methods, significant correlations (Spearman correlation coefficient >0.6, p < 0.05), mean difference <5 % and variation 2SD <25 % were found for natural-killer, T and B cells, including many immunologically important cell subsets (CD8+, naïve, memory CD4+ T; switched-memory, transitional B). Some subgroups (plasmablasts, CD1d+CD5hi B cells) showed weak correlations, limiting interpretation reliability. The dry-antibody system provides a reliable method for standardized analysis of many immune phenotypes after long-distance shipping when processed within 30 h, rendering the system attractive for pediatric studies due to small blood amounts required and highly standardized processing and analysis., Competing Interests: Declaration of competing interest The authors declare the following financial interests/personal relationships which may be considered as potential competing interests: Seema Mital reports a relationship with Bristol Myers Squibb that includes: consulting or advisory.

Abstract

Background: Immune-suppressed solid-organ transplant recipients (SOTRs) display impaired humoral responses to COVID-19 vaccination, but T cell responses are incompletely understood. SARS-CoV-2 variants Omicron BA.4/5 (BA.4/5) and XBB.1.5 escape neutralization by antibodies induced by vaccination or infection with earlier strains, but T cell recognition of these lineages in SOTRs is unclear., Methods: We characterized Spike-specific T cell responses to ancestral SARS-CoV-2 and BA.4/5 peptides in 42 kidney, liver, and lung transplant recipients throughout a 3- or 4-dose ancestral Spike mRNA vaccination schedule. As the XBB.1.5 variant emerged during the study, we tested vaccine-induced T cell responses in 10 additional participants using recombinant XBB.1.5 Spike protein. Using an optimized activation-induced marker assay, we quantified circulating Spike-specific CD4 + and CD8 +  T cells based on antigen-stimulated expression of CD134, CD69, CD25, CD137, and/or CD107a., Results: Vaccination strongly induced SARS-CoV-2-specific T cells, including BA.4/5- and XBB.1.5-reactive T cells, which remained detectable over time and further increased following a fourth dose. However, responses to BA.4/5 (1.34- to 1.67-fold lower) XBB.1.5 (2.0- to 18-fold lower) were significantly reduced in magnitude compared with ancestral strain responses. CD4 + responses correlated with anti-receptor-binding domain antibodies and predicted subsequent antibody responses in seronegative individuals. Lung transplant recipients receiving prednisone and older adults displayed weaker responses., Conclusions: Ancestral strain vaccination stimulates BA.4/5 and XBB.1.5-cross-reactive T cells in SOTRs, but at lower magnitudes. Antigen-specific T cells can predict future antibody responses. Our data support monitoring both humoral and cellular immunity in SOTRs to track COVID-19 vaccine immunogenicity against emerging variants., (Copyright © 2023 Wolters Kluwer Health, Inc.

Abstract

Activation-induced marker (AIM) assays have proven to be an accessible and rapid means of antigen-specific T-cell detection. The method typically involves short-term incubation of whole blood or peripheral blood mononuclear cells with antigens of interest, where autologous antigen-presenting cells process and present peptides in complex with major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules. Recognition of peptide-MHC complexes by T-cell receptors then induces upregulation of activation markers on the T cells that can be detected by flow cytometry. In this review, we highlight the most widely used activation markers for assays in the literature while identifying nuances and potential downfalls associated with the technique. We provide a summary of how AIM assays have been used in both discovery science and clinical studies, including studies of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) immunity. This review primarily focuses on AIM assays using human blood or peripheral blood mononuclear cell samples, with some considerations noted for tissue-derived T cells and nonhuman samples. AIM assays are a powerful tool that enables detailed analysis of antigen-specific T-cell frequency, phenotype and function without needing to know the precise antigenic peptides and their MHC restriction elements, enabling a wider analysis of immunity generated following infection and/or vaccination., (© 2023 The Authors.

Abstract

Defining the immunological landscape of human tissue is an important area of research, but challenges include the impact of tissue disaggregation on cell phenotypes and the low abundance of immune cells in many tissues. Here, we describe methods to troubleshoot and standardize Cellular Indexing of Transcriptomes and Epitopes by sequencing (CITE-seq) for studies involving enzymatic digestion of human tissue. We tested epitope susceptibility of 92 antibodies commonly used to differentiate immune lineages and cell states on human peripheral blood mononuclear cells following treatment with an enzymatic digestion cocktail used to isolate islets. We observed CD4, CD8a, CD25, CD27, CD120b, CCR4, CCR6, and PD1 display significant sensitivity to enzymatic treatment, effects that often could not be overcome with alternate antibodies. Comparison of flow cytometry-based CITE-seq antibody titrations and sequencing data supports that for the majority of antibodies, flow cytometry accurately predicts optimal antibody concentrations for CITE-seq. Comparison by CITE-seq of immune cells in enzymatically digested islet tissue and donor-matched spleen not treated with enzymes revealed little digestion-induced epitope cleavage, suggesting increased sensitivity of CITE-seq and/or that the islet structure may protect resident immune cells from enzymes. Within islets, CITE-seq identified immune cells difficult to identify by transcriptional signatures alone, such as distinct tissue-resident T cell subsets, mast cells, and innate lymphoid cells (ILCs). Collectively this study identifies strategies for the rational design and testing of CITE-seq antibodies for single-cell studies of immune cells within islets and other tissues., Competing Interests: The authors declare that the research was conducted in the absence of any commercial or financial relationships that could be construed as a potential conflict of interest., (Copyright © 2023 Colpitts, Budd, Monajemi, Reid, Murphy, Ivison, Verchere, Levings and Crome.)

Abstract

Graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) is a significant complication of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. In order to develop new therapeutic approaches, there is a need to recapitulate GvHD effects in pre-clinical, in vivo systems, such as mouse and humanized mouse models. In humanized mouse models of GvHD, mice are reconstituted with human immune cells, which become activated by xenogeneic (xeno) stimuli, causing a multi-system disorder known as xenoGvHD. Testing the ability of new therapies to prevent or delay the development of xenoGvHD is often used as pre-clinical, proof-of-concept data, creating the need for standardized methodology to induce, monitor, and report xenoGvHD. Here, we describe detailed methods for how to induce xenoGvHD by injecting human peripheral blood mononuclear cells into immunodeficient NOD SCID gamma mice. We provide comprehensive details on methods for human T cell preparation and injection, mouse monitoring, data collection, interpretation, and reporting. Additionally, we provide an example of the potential utility of the xenoGvHD model to assess the biological activity of a regulatory T-cell therapy. Use of this protocol will allow better standardization of this model and comparison of datasets across different studies.

Abstract

Background: Given the promising results from phase 1/2 clinical trials of therapy involving regulatory T cells (Tregs), it is critical to develop Treg manufacturing methods that use well-defined reagents., Methods: Seeking to maximize expansion of human thymic Tregs activated with anti-CD3/CD28 antibody-coated beads and cultured in serum-free medium, the authors investigated the effect of adjusting process parameters including cell density and cell concentration, and feeding strategy on Treg yield and quality., Results: The authors found that levels of expansion and viability varied with cell density on the day of restimulation. Tregs restimulated at low cell densities (1 × 10 5 cells/cm 2 ) initially had high growth rates, viability and FOXP3 expression, but these parameters decreased with time and were less stable than those observed in cultures of Tregs restimulated at high cell densities (5 × 10 5 cells/cm 2 ), which had slower growth rates. High-density expansion was associated with expression of inhibitory molecules and lower intracellular oxygen and extracellular nutrient concentrations as well as extracellular lactate accumulation. Experiments to test the effect of low oxygen revealed that transient exposure to low oxygen levels had little impact on expansion, viability or phenotype. Similarly, blockade of inhibitory molecules had little effect. By contrast, replenishing nutrients by increasing the feeding frequency between 2 days and 4 days after restimulation increased FOXP3, viability and expansion in high-density cultures., Conclusion: These data show the previously undescribed consequences of adjusting cell density on Treg expansion and establish a Good Manufacturing Practice-relevant protocol using non-cell-based activation reagents and serum-free media that supports sustained expansion without loss of viability or phenotype., (Copyright © 2022 International Society for Cell & Gene Therapy.

Abstract

An open-label, first-in-human phase 1/2 study is being conducted to evaluate the safety and efficacy of pancreatic endoderm cells (PECs) implanted in non-immunoprotective macroencapsulation devices for the treatment of type 1 diabetes. We report an analysis on 1 year of data from the first cohort of 15 patients from a single trial site that received subcutaneous implantation of cell products combined with an immunosuppressive regimen. Implants were well tolerated with no teratoma formation or severe graft-related adverse events. After implantation, patients had increased fasting C-peptide levels and increased glucose-responsive C-peptide levels and developed mixed meal-stimulated C-peptide secretion. There were immunosuppression-related transient increases in circulating regulatory T cells, PD1 high T cells, and IL17A + CD4 + T cells. Explanted grafts contained cells with a mature β cell phenotype that were immunoreactive for insulin, islet amyloid polypeptide, and MAFA. These data, and associated findings (Shapiro et al., 2021), are the first reported evidence of meal-regulated insulin secretion by differentiated stem cells in patients., Competing Interests: Declaration of interests T.J.K. has received research funding from CRISPR Therapeutics, funding and research contracts from Aspect Biosystems, consulting fees from Sigilon Therapeutics, and research support from ViaCyte, Inc. and has filed patent applications related to the subject of this manuscript.

Abstract

Regulatory T cells (Tregs) are a promising therapy for several immune-mediated conditions but manufacturing a homogeneous and consistent product, especially one that includes cryopreservation, has been challenging. Discarded pediatric thymuses are an excellent source of therapeutic Tregs with advantages including cell quantity, homogeneity and stability. Here we report systematic testing of activation reagents, cell culture media, restimulation timing and cryopreservation to develop a Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP)-compatible method to expand and cryopreserve Tregs. By comparing activation reagents, including soluble antibody tetramers, antibody-conjugated beads and artificial antigen-presenting cells (aAPCs) and different media, we found that the combination of Dynabeads Treg Xpander and ImmunoCult-XF medium preserved FOXP3 expression and suppressive function and resulted in expansion that was comparable with a single stimulation with aAPCs. Cryopreservation tests revealed a critical timing effect: only cells cryopreserved 1-3 days, but not >3 days, after restimulation maintained high viability and FOXP3 expression upon thawing. Restimulation timing was a less critical process parameter than the time between restimulation and cryopreservation. This systematic testing of key variables provides increased certainty regarding methods for in vitro expansion and cryopreservation of Tregs. The ability to cryopreserve expanded Tregs will have broad-ranging applications including enabling centralized manufacturing and long-term storage of cell products., (Copyright © 2019 International Society for Cell and Gene Therapy.

Abstract

The analysis and validation of flow cytometry-based biomarkers in clinical studies are limited by the lack of standardized protocols that are reproducible across multiple centers and suitable for use with either unfractionated blood or cryopreserved PBMCs. Here we report the development of a platform that standardizes a set of flow cytometry panels across multiple centers, with high reproducibility in blood or PBMCs from either healthy subjects or patients 100 days after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Inter-center comparisons of replicate samples showed low variation, with interindividual variation exceeding inter-center variation for most populations (coefficients of variability <20% and interclass correlation coefficients >0.75). Exceptions included low-abundance populations defined by markers with indistinct expression boundaries (e.g., plasmablasts, monocyte subsets) or populations defined by markers sensitive to cryopreservation, such as CD62L and CD45RA. Automated gating pipelines were developed and validated on an independent data set, revealing high Spearman's correlations (rs >0.9) with manual analyses. This workflow, which includes pre-formatted antibody cocktails, standardized protocols for acquisition, and validated automated analysis pipelines, can be readily implemented in multicenter clinical trials. This approach facilitates the collection of robust immune phenotyping data and comparison of data from independent studies.

Abstract

Toll-like receptor-9 (TLR9) responsive B cells have previously been associated with the onset of extensive chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGvHD). We hypothesized that the onset of cGvHD associated with a higher level of plasma-free mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA), a putative TLR9 agonist. Plasma cell-free mtDNA levels were measured in 39 adult patients post-HSCT with and without cGvHD. mtDNA was isolated from plasma and quantified by Q-PCR amplification. We correlated B cell responsiveness to CpG-DNA, a prototypical TLR9 agonist, and previously identified cGVHD biomarkers with mtDNA levels. Free plasma mtDNA were elevated in patients post-HSCT without cGvHD compared to normal non-HSCT adults. There was a significantly higher level of free plasma mtDNA associated with the onset of cGvHD (3080 ± 1586 versus 1834 ± 1435 copies/μL; p = 0.02) compared to 6 months post-HSCT controls. Free mtDNA levels post-HSCT correlated with B cell responsiveness to CpG-DNA and known cGvHD biomarkers: CXCL10 (p = 0.003), ICAM-1 (p = 0.007), CXCL9 (p = 0.03), sCD25 (p = 0.05) and sBAFF (p = 0.05), and percentage of CD21 low B cells. Plasma levels of free mtDNA are increased in cGvHD and may represent an endogenous inflammatory stimulus for TLR9 expressing B cells.

Abstract

Autoimmunity results from an intersection of genetic and environmental factors that cause patient-specific perturbations in immune homeostasis. Defining autoimmunity-associated genetic factors has led to mechanistic insight into underlying etiologies, and the development of many biologic therapies that target the immune system. However, biomarker-informed pairing of patients with optimal biologic therapy is lacking. Here, we discuss platforms commonly used to find biomarkers that predict response to biologic therapy in autoimmunity and highlight recent biomarker discoveries. We also outline how the lack of assay standardization is a barrier to successful biomarker validation. Finally, we argue that the successful development of companion biomarkers for biologic therapy requires collaborative approaches that integrate multiple platforms and enable comprehensive measurement of multiple immune pathways., (Copyright © 2017 Elsevier Ltd.
