ABSTRACT The effect of secondary infections on CD4 T-cell-regulated chronic granulomatous inflammation is not well understood. Here, we have investigated the effect of an acute viral infection on the cellular composition and bacterial protection in Mycobacterium bovis strain bacille Calmette-Guérin (BCG)-induced granulomas using an immunocompetent and a partially immunodeficient murine model. Acute lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV) coinfection of C57BL/6 mice led to substantial accumulation of gamma interferon (IFN-γ)-producing LCMV-specific T cells in liver granulomas and increased local IFN-γ. Despite traffic of activated T cells that resulted in a CD8 T-cell-dominated granuloma, the BCG liver organ load was unaltered from control levels. In OT-1 T-cell-receptor (TCR) transgenic mice, ovalbumin (OVA) immunization or LCMV coinfection of BCG-infected mice induced CD8 T-cell-dominated granulomas containing large numbers of non-BCG-specific activated T cells. The higher baseline BCG organ load in this CD8 TCR transgenic animal allowed us to demonstrate that OVA immunization and LCMV coinfection increased anti-BCG protection. The bacterial load remained substantially higher than in mice with a more complete TCR repertoire. Overall, the present study suggests that peripherally activated CD8 T cells can be recruited to chronic inflammatory sites, but their contribution to protective immunity is limited to conditions of underlying immunodeficiency.

BackgroundDespite recent advancements in systemic therapy, only a minority of metastatic patients develop meaningful clinical responses to immune checkpoint inhibitors. Inherent genetic instability of melanoma generates genomically and microenvironmentally distinct metastases. These different tumor microenvironments (TMEs) contain numerous T cell suppression mechanisms, such as upregulation of the PD-1/PD-L1 exhaustion pathway. However, as synchronous metastases share one host immune system, intertumoral heterogeneity may result in increasing cross-talk between metastases that impairs systemic antitumor immunity and promotes PD-1 immunotherapy resistance.MethodsYUMM 1.7 (less immunogenic) and YUMMER 1.7 (more immunogenic cell line derived from YUMM following UVB irradiation) melanoma cell lines were simultaneously injected into opposite flanks of the same mice as a model of synchronous melanoma. We assessed tumor growth in wildtype, interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) knockout, and CD8-depleted mice as well as in response to PD-1 inhibitor. We characterized the TME with flow cytometry and performed TCR sequencing on tumor-infiltrating CD8 T cells.ResultsDistinct TMEs were observed for YUMM and YUMMER tumors simultaneously grown in the same mouse. The presence of the less immunogenic YUMM tumor allows the more immunogenic YUMMER tumors to escape IFN-γ and CD8 T cell-mediated rejection, despite abundant tumor-infiltrating, clonally expanded CD8 T cells. Identical immunodominant CD8 T cell clones were found in both YUMM and YUMMER tumors within the same mouse. Synchronous YUMMER-infiltrating CD8 T cells exhibit suppressed phenotypes, including increased persistence of surface PD-1 and decreased surface CD107a expressions. Simultaneously, these synchronous YUMMER tumors additionally upregulate macrophage surface PD-L1 expression, which potentially contributes to tumor immune escape. Lastly, synchronous YUMMER tumors become resistant to PD-1 inhibition, in direct contrast to control YUMMER tumors.ConclusionsIn a host with multiple melanoma lesions, immunogenicity of all tumors contribute to the systemic antitumor immune response. We show that two synchronous tumors with synonymous mutations (<40%), as is the case with metastatic patients, lead to skewed CD8 T cell expansion of the same clones in both tumors. The presence of a less immunogenic tumor prevents CD8 and IFN-γ mediated rejection of the more immunogenic tumor. Furthermore, CD8 T cells in the more immunogenic tumor exhibit decreased effector function and increased resistance to PD-1 blockade, as tumor-infiltrating macrophages concurrently become more immunosuppressive. These results are highly suggestive of a “reverse abscopal effect,” by which immunologically “cold” tumors generate systemic immunosuppression that facilitate PD-1 immunotherapy resistance and immune escape of all other tumors in synchronous metastatic melanoma patients.AcknowledgementsWe would like to thank Dr. Marcus Bosenberg from the Department of Dermatology at Yale University for kindly gifting us with the YUMMER 1.7 murine melanoma cell line.Ethics ApprovalAnimal experiments were approved by the University Committee on Animal Resources and performed in accordance with University of Rochester approved guidelines.

Although CD8 T cell–mediated immunosuppression has been a well-known phenomenon during the last three decades, the nature of primary CD8 T suppressor cells and the mechanism underlying their generation remain enigmatic. We demonstrated that naive CD8 T cells primed with allogeneic CD40 ligand–activated plasmacytoid dendritic cells (DC)2 differentiated into CD8 T cells that displayed poor secondary proliferative and cytolytic responses. By contrast, naive CD8 T cells primed with allogeneic CD40 ligand–activated monocyte-derived DCs (DC1) differentiated into CD8 T cells, which proliferated to secondary stimulation and killed allogeneic target cells. Unlike DC1-primed CD8 T cells that produced large amounts of interferon (IFN)-γ upon restimulation, DC2-primed CD8 T cells produced significant amounts of interleukin (IL)-10, low IFN-γ, and no IL-4, IL-5, nor transforming growth factor (TGF)-β. The addition of anti–IL-10–neutralizing monoclonal antibodies during DC2 and CD8 T cell coculture, completely blocked the generation of IL-10–producing anergic CD8 T cells. IL-10–producing CD8 T cells strongly inhibit the allospecific proliferation of naive CD8 T cells to monocytes, and mature and immature DCs. This inhibition was mediated by IL-10, but not by TGF-β. IL-10–producing CD8 T cells could inhibit the bystander proliferation of naive CD8 T cells, provided that they were restimulated nearby to produce IL-10. IL-10–producing CD8 T cells could not inhibit the proliferation of DC1-preactivated effector T cells. This study demonstrates that IL-10–producing CD8 T cells are regulatory T cells, which provides a cellular basis for the phenomenon of CD8 T cell–mediated immunosuppression and suggests a role for plasmacytoid DC2 in immunological tolerance.

Chronic Hcv

Chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection causes generalized CD8+ T cell impairment, not limited to HCV-specific CD8+ T-cells. Liver-infiltrating monocyte-derived macrophages (MDMs) contribute to the local micro-environment and can interact with and influence cells routinely trafficking through the liver, including CD8+ T-cells. MDMs can be polarized into M1 (classically activated) and M2a, M2b, and M2c (alternatively activated) phenotypes that perform pro- and anti-inflammatory functions, respectively. The impact of chronic HCV infection on MDM subset functions is not known. Our results show that M1 cells generated from chronic HCV patients acquire M2 characteristics, such as increased CD86 expression and IL-10 secretion, compared to uninfected controls. In contrast, M2 subsets from HCV-infected individuals acquired M1-like features by secreting more IL-12 and IFN-γ. The severity of liver disease was also associated with altered macrophage subset differentiation. In co-cultures with autologous CD8+ T-cells from controls, M1 macrophages alone significantly increased CD8+ T cell IFN-γ expression in a cytokine-independent and cell-contact-dependent manner. However, M1 macrophages from HCV-infected individuals significantly decreased IFN-γ expression in CD8+ T-cells. Therefore, altered M1 macrophage differentiation in chronic HCV infection may contribute to observed CD8+ T-cell dysfunction. Understanding the immunological perturbations in chronic HCV infection will lead to the identification of therapeutic targets to restore immune function in HCV+ individuals, and aid in the mitigation of associated negative clinical outcomes.
