(Submitter supplied) Cytotoxic CD4 T lymphocytes (CD4-CTL) are important in anti-viral immunity.  For example, we have previously shown that in mice, CD4-CTL are important to control ectromelia virus (ECTV) infection.  How viral infections induce CD4-CTL responses remains incompletely understood. Here we demonstrate that not only ECTV but also vaccinia virus and Lymphocytic Choriomeningitis virus induce CD4-CTL, but that the response to ECTV is stronger.  Using ECTV, we also demonstrate that in contrast to CD8-CTL, CD4-CTL differentiation requires constant virus replication and ceases once the virus is controlled.  We also show that Major Histocompatibility Complex Class II molecules on CD11c+ cells are required for CD4-CTL differentiation and for mousepox resistance.  Transcriptional analysis indicated that anti-viral CD4-CTL and non-cytolytic T Helper 1 (Th1) CD4 T cells have similar transcriptional profiles, suggesting that CD4-CTL are terminally differentiated classical Th1 cells.  Interestingly, CD4-CTL and classical Th1 cells expressed similar mRNA levels of the transcription factors ThPOK and GATA-3, necessary for CD4 T cell linage commitment; and Runx3, required for CD8 T cell development and effector function.  However, at the protein level, CD4-CTL had higher levels of the three transcription factors suggesting that further post-transcriptional regulation is required for CD4-CTL differentiation.  Finally, using CRISPR-Cas9 deletion of Runx3 in CD4 T cells, we demonstrate that the development of CD4-CTL but not of classical Th1 CD4 T cells requires Runx3 following ECTV infection.  These results further our understanding of the mechanisms of CD4-CTL differentiation during viral infection and the role of post-transcriptionally regulated Runx3 in this process.

(Submitter supplied) We investigated transcriptional changes in MAZR-, Runx3- and MAZR/Runx3-deficient cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs). This analysis revealed that MAZR plays a compensatory role in the Runx3-dependent transcriptional program of CTL differentiation.

(Submitter supplied) T cell receptor (TCR) stimulation of naïve CD8+ T cells initiates reprogramming of cis-regulatory landscapes that specify effector and memory cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) differentiation. We mapped regions of hyper-accessible chromatin in naïve cells during TCR stimulation and discovered that the transcription factor (TF) Runx3 controls de novo access to memory CTL-specific cistromes prior to the first cell division, and is essential for memory CTL differentiation. more...

(Submitter supplied) The transcription factor Thpok is essential for CD4 T cell development in the thymus and remains expressed in post-thymic CD4 T cells. We post-thymically inactivated Thpok and compared microarray gene expression in Thpok-deficient CD4 T cells to that in their wildtype CD4 or CD8 counterparts We show that Thpok constrains the transcriptional circuitry to maintain CD4+-lineage integrity in naïve cells and to couple effector differentiation to environmental cues after antigenic stimulation. more...

(Submitter supplied) Dendritic cells (DCs) play a crucial role in orchestrating immune responses, particularly in promoting IFNγ-producing-CD8 cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) and IFNγ-producing -CD4 T helper 1 (Th1) cells, which are essential for defending against viral infections. Additionally, the nuclear envelope protein lamin A/C has been implicated in T cell immunity. Nevertheless, the intricate interplay between innate and adaptive immunity in response to viral infections, particularly the role of lamin A/C in DC functions within this context, remains poorly understood. more...

(Submitter supplied) CD4 T follicular helper (Tfh) cells provide the required signals to B cells for germinal center reactions that are necessary for longlived antibody responses. However, it remains unclear whether there are CD4+ memory T cells committed to the Tfh lineage after antigen clearance. Using adoptive transfer of antigen-specific memory CD4+ subpopulations (based on CXCR5 and Ly6c expression)in the LCMV infection model, we found that there are distinct memory CD4+ T cell populations with commitment to the Tfh and Th1 lineages. more...
