Ribeiro do Couto,*1,2,3 Jeanette H. W. Leusen,† Berend Hooibrink,* Taco W. Kuijpers,* Susanne M. A. Lens,4* and Rene´A. W. van Lier5* Circulating CD8؉ T cells with a CD45RA؉CD27؊ phenotype resemble cytolytic effector cells because they express various cytolytic mediators and are able to execute cytotoxicity without prior stimulation in vitro. We here demonstrate that .CD8؉CD45RA؉CD27؊ T cells can use both granule exocytosis and Fas/Fas ligand pathways to induce apoptosis in target cells The availability of these cytolytic mechanisms in circulating T cells suggests that the activity of these cells must be carefully controlled to prevent unwanted tissue damage. For this reason, we analyzed the expression of surface receptors that either enhance Downloaded from or inhibit T cell function. Compared with memory-type cells, effector cells were found to express normal levels of CD3⑀ and TCR␨ and relatively high levels of CD8. CTLA-4 was absent from freshly isolated effector cells, whereas a limited number of unstimu- lated memory cells expressed this molecule. In line with recent findings on CD8؉CD28؊ T cells, CD45RA؉CD27؊ T cells were unique in the abundant expression of NK cell-inhibitory receptors, both of Ig superfamily and C-type lectin classes.

  • Pro- and Anti-Apoptotic CD95 Signaling in T Cells Maren Paulsen* and Ottmar Janssen
    Paulsen and Janssen Cell Communication and Signaling 2011, 9:7 http://www.biosignaling.com/content/9/1/7 DEBATE Open Access Pro- and anti-apoptotic CD95 signaling in T cells Maren Paulsen* and Ottmar Janssen Abstract The TNF receptor superfamily member CD95 (Fas, APO-1, TNFRSF6) is known as the prototypic death receptor in and outside the immune system. In fact, many mechanisms involved in apoptotic signaling cascades were solved by addressing consequences and pathways initiated by CD95 ligation in activated T cells or other “CD95-sensitive” cell populations. As an example, the binding of the inducible CD95 ligand (CD95L) to CD95 on activated T lymphocytes results in apoptotic cell death. This activation-induced cell death was implicated in the control of immune cell homeostasis and immune response termination. Over the past years, however, it became evident that CD95 acts as a dual function receptor that also exerts anti-apoptotic effects depending on the cellular context. Early observations of a potential non-apoptotic role of CD95 in the growth control of resting T cells were recently reconsidered and revealed quite unexpected findings regarding the costimulatory capacity of CD95 for primary T cell activation. It turned out that CD95 engagement modulates TCR/CD3-driven signal initiation in a dose- dependent manner. High doses of immobilized CD95 agonists or cellular CD95L almost completely silence T cells by blocking early TCR-induced signaling events. In contrast, under otherwise unchanged conditions, lower amounts of the same agonists dramatically augment TCR/CD3-driven activation and proliferation. In the present overview, we summarize these recent findings with a focus on the costimulatory capacity of CD95 in primary T cells and discuss potential implications for the T cell compartment and the interplay between T cells and CD95L-expressing cells including antigen-presenting cells.

  • CD226 T Cells Expressing the Receptors TIGIT and Divergent Phenotypes of Human Regulatory

Baker,‡ Ying Zhang,x Yizheng Li,{ Maryann Whitley,{ David von Schack,x Mark A. Atkinson,* Jeffrey A. Bluestone,‡ and Todd M. Brusko* Regulatory T cells (Tregs) play a central role in counteracting inflammation and autoimmunity. A more complete understanding of cellular heterogeneity and the potential for lineage plasticity in human Treg subsets may identify markers of disease pathogenesis and facilitate the development of optimized cellular therapeutics. To better elucidate human Treg subsets, we conducted direct transcriptional profiling of CD4+FOXP3+Helios+ thymic-derived Tregs and CD4+FOXP3+Helios2 T cells, followed by comparison with CD4+FOXP32Helios2 T conventional cells. These analyses revealed that the coinhibitory receptor T cell Ig and ITIM domain (TIGIT) was highly expressed on thymic-derived Tregs. TIGIT and the costimulatory factor CD226 bind the common ligand CD155. Thus, we analyzed the cellular distribution and suppressive activity of isolated subsets of CD4+CD25+CD127lo/2 T cells expressing CD226 and/or TIGIT. We observed TIGIT is highly expressed and upregulated on Tregs after activation and in vitro expansion, and is associated with lineage stability and suppressive capacity. Conversely, the CD226+TIGIT2 population was associated with reduced Treg purity and suppressive capacity after expansion, along with a marked increase in IL-10 and effector cytokine production. These studies provide additional markers to delineate functionally distinct Treg subsets that may help direct cellular therapies and provide important phenotypic markers for assessing the role of Tregs in health and disease.

  • A Critical Role for Fas-Mediated Off-Target Tumor Killing in T-Cell Immunotherapy

Better understanding of how T cells eliminate tumors will help decipher resistance mecha- nisms. We used a CRISPR/Cas9 screen and identified a necessary role for Fas–FasL in antigen-specific T-cell killing. We also found that Fas–FasL mediated off-target “bystander” killing of antigen-negative tumor cells. This localized bystander cytotoxicity enhanced clearance of antigen-heterogeneous tumors in vivo, a finding that has not been shown previously. Fas-mediated on-target and bystander killing was reproduced in chimeric antigen receptor (CAR-T) and bispecific antibody T-cell models and was augmented by inhibiting regulators of Fas signaling. Tumoral FAS expression alone predicted survival of CAR-T–treated patients in a large clinical trial (NCT02348216). These data suggest strate- gies to prevent immune escape by targeting both the antigen expression of most tumor cells and the geography of antigen-loss variants.

This is an open access article distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited. The tumor necrosis factor (TNF) ligand and cognate TNF receptor superfamilies constitute an important regulatory axis that is pivotal for immune homeostasis and correct execution of immune responses. TNF ligands and receptors are involved in diverse biological processes ranging from the selective induction of cell death in potentially dangerous and superfluous cells to providing costimulatory signals that help mount an effective immune response. This diverse and important regulatory role in immunity has sparked great interest in the development of TNFL/TNFR-targeted cancer immunotherapeutics. In this review, I will discuss the biology of the most prominent proapoptotic and co-stimulatory TNF ligands and review their current status in cancer immunotherapy. 1. Introduction ligand/receptor interaction induces formation of a Death Inducing Signaling Complex (DISC) to the cytoplasmic DD The tumor necrosis factor (TNF) superfamily is comprised [3]. This DISC comprises the adaptor protein Fas-associated of 27 ligands that all share the hallmark extracellular TNF death domain (FADD) and an inactive proform of the homology domain (THD) [1].

Centuori1, Cecil J. Gomes2, Samuel S. Kim3, Charles W. Putnam1,3, Brandon T. Larsen4, Linda L. Garland1,5, David W. Mount6 and Jesse D. Martinez1,7* Abstract Background: The presence of B cells in early stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is associated with longer survival, however, the role these cells play in the generation and maintenance of anti-tumor immunity is unclear. B cells diferentiate into a variety of subsets with difering characteristics and functions. To date, there is limited informa- tion on the specifc B cell subsets found within NSCLC. To better understand the composition of the B cell populations found in NSCLC we have begun characterizing B cells in lung tumors and have detected a population of B cells that are ­CD79A+CD27−IgD−. These ­CD27−IgD− (double-negative) B cells have previously been characterized as uncon- ventional memory B cells and have been detected in some autoimmune diseases and in the elderly population but have not been detected previously in tumor tissue. Methods: A total of 15 fresh untreated NSCLC tumors and 15 matched adjacent lung control tissues were dissociated and analyzed by intracellular fow cytometry to detect the B cell-related markers CD79A, CD27 and IgD. All ­CD79A+ B cells subsets were classifed as either naïve ­(CD27−IgD+), afnity-matured ­(CD27+IgD−), early memory/germinal center cells ­(CD27+IgD+) or double-negative B cells ­(CD27−IgD−).
