Gut microbiota-derived butyrate restores impaired regulatory T cells in patients with AChR myasthenia gravis via mTOR-mediated autophagy
Cell Communication and Signaling : CCS 2024 Apr
Abstract
More than 80% of patients with myasthenia gravis (MG) are positive for anti-acetylcholine receptor (AChR) antibodies. Regulatory T cells (Tregs) suppress overproduction of these antibodies, and patients with AChR antibody-positive MG (AChR MG) exhibit impaired Treg function and reduced Treg numbers. The gut microbiota and their metabolites play a crucial role in maintaining Treg differentiation and function. However, whether impaired Tregs correlate with gut microbiota activity in patients with AChR MG remains unknown. Here, we demonstrate that butyric acid-producing gut bacteria and serum butyric acid level are reduced in patients with AChR MG. Butyrate supplementation effectively enhanced Treg differentiation and their suppressive function of AChR MG. Mechanistically, butyrate activates autophagy of Treg cells by inhibiting the mammalian target of rapamycin. Activation of autophagy increased oxidative phosphorylation and surface expression of cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein 4 on Treg cells, thereby promoting Treg differentiation and their suppressive function in AChR MG. This observed effect of butyrate was blocked using chloroquine, an autophagy inhibitor, suggesting the vital role of butyrate-activated autophagy in Tregs of patients with AChR MG. We propose that gut bacteria derived butyrate has potential therapeutic efficacy against AChR MG by restoring impaired Tregs.Supplementary InformationThe online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1186/s12964-024-01588-9.
Epigenetic control of multiple genes with a lentiviral vector encoding transcriptional repressors fused to compact zinc finger arrays
Molecular Therapy. Methods & Clinical Development 2024 Apr
Abstract
Gene silencing without gene editing holds great potential for the development of safe therapeutic applications. Here, we describe a novel strategy to concomitantly repress multiple genes using zinc finger proteins fused to Krüppel-Associated Box repression domains (ZF-Rs). This was achieved via the optimization of a lentiviral system tailored for the delivery of ZF-Rs in hematopoietic cells. We showed that an optimal design of the lentiviral backbone is crucial to multiplex up to three ZF-Rs or two ZF-Rs and a chimeric antigen receptor. ZF-R expression had no impact on the integrity and functionality of transduced cells. Furthermore, gene repression in ZF-R-expressing T cells was highly efficient in vitro and in vivo during the entire monitoring period (up to 10 weeks), and it was accompanied by epigenetic remodeling events. Finally, we described an approach to improve ZF-R specificity to illustrate the path toward the generation of ZF-Rs with a safe clinical profile. In conclusion, we successfully developed an epigenetic-based cell engineering approach for concomitant modulation of multiple gene expressions that bypass the risks associated with DNA editing. Graphical abstract David Fenard and colleagues developed a lentiviral backbone for the multiplexing of up to three ZF-R sequences, allowing an efficient, stable, and specific epigenetic control of multiple genes in T cells or Tregs after a single lentiviral transduction event.
Fc$\gamma$ receptor-mediated cross-linking codefines the immunostimulatory activity of anti-human CD96 antibodies.
JCI insight 2022 oct
Abstract
New strategies that augment T cell responses are required to broaden the therapeutic arsenal against cancer. CD96, TIGIT, and CD226 are receptors that bind to a communal ligand, CD155, and transduce either inhibitory or activating signals. The function of TIGIT and CD226 is established, whereas the role of CD96 remains ambiguous. Using a panel of engineered antibodies, we discovered that the T cell stimulatory activity of anti-CD96 antibodies requires antibody cross-linking and is potentiated by Fc$\gamma$ receptors. Thus, soluble Fc silent" anti-CD96 antibodies failed to stimulate human T cells whereas the same antibodies were stimulatory after coating onto plastic surfaces. Remarkably the activity of soluble anti-CD96 antibodies was reinstated by engineering the Fc domain to a human IgG1 isotype and it was dependent on antibody trans-cross-linking by Fc$\gamma$RI. In contrast neither human IgG2 nor variants with increased Fc$\gamma$ receptor IIB binding possessed stimulatory activity. Anti-CD96 antibodies acted directly on T cells and augmented gene expression networks associated with T cell activation leading to proliferation cytokine secretion and resistance to Treg suppression. Furthermore CD96 expression correlated with survival in HPV+ head and neck squamous cell carcinoma and its cross-linking activated tumor-infiltrating T cells thus highlighting the potential of anti-CD96 antibodies in cancer immunotherapy."
