虽然人类免疫反应的研究已经取得了很大进展,但仍有许多知识空白。 留下来。许多感染和免疫介导性疾病局限于特定的组织或器官,但很少有 已知的组织/器官特异性免疫。为此,CCHI计划的一个主要总体目标是 了解记忆CD8 T细胞在血液、组织和器官中的分化。我们增加了唐娜博士 法伯给我们的CHHI-EVC团队这个周期。她建立了一种独特的人体组织资源,使 从已故器官捐赠者身上获取血液和各种组织,因此我们将分析病毒特异性 在已故器官捐赠者的不同组织中记忆CD8 T细胞并解决有关解剖的问题 活体诱导的病毒特异性CD8T细胞的分布及其表观遗传、转录和表型的变化 减毒病毒疫苗,抗原再次暴露的风险最小。该计划的第二个主要目标是 旨在阐明YFV疫苗接种和病毒感染后产生“训练性免疫”的分子机制。 利用这一知识为未来开发新的疫苗和免疫疗法奠定基础。我们会 回答以下问题。所谓的“先天记忆”在多大程度上是由一种正在进行的 适应性免疫反应(例如,通过旁分泌信号),相对于先天细胞的细胞固有属性, 类似于记忆T细胞或B细胞表现出的免疫记忆的经典现象?有没有增强版的 DC和单核细胞的反应(类似于适应性免疫系统中的记忆反应) 二次接种还是感染?如果是这样的话,涉及的细胞和分子机制是什么?最后, 第三个总体目标是确定与T记忆细胞相关的信号和转录因子(TF)网络 并量化这些网络随年龄的变化情况。这将在以下时间实现 以下项目:项目1:免疫记忆(Ahmed、Hellerstein、Farber);项目2:先天免疫 (Pulendran,Hellerstein)和项目3:免疫衰老(Goronzy,GreenLeaf)。受以下各项支持 核心A:管理(Ahmed);核心B:单细胞和整合基因组学(博辛格、格林利夫);核心C: 临床和生物统计学(Edupuganti,Kulkanya,Yu)。
英文摘要
While many strides have been made in the study of human immune responses, numerous knowledge gaps still remain. Many infections and immune-mediated diseases are localized to specific tissues, or organs but little is known about tissue/organ-specific immunity. A major overall goal of this CCHI program to this end is to understand memory CD8 T cells differentiation in the blood, tissues and organs. We have added Dr. Donna Farber to our CHHI-EVC team this cycle. She has established a unique human tissue resource enabling acquisition of blood and various tissues from deceased organ donors, we will therefore analyze virus-specific memory CD8 T cells in various tissues of deceased organ donors and address questions regarding the anatomic distribution and the epigenetic, transcriptional and phenotypic profile of virus-specific CD8 T cells elicited by live- attenuated virus vaccines and with minimal risk of antigenic re-exposure. The second major goal of this program is to elucidate the molecular mechanisms of “trained immunity” after YFV vaccination and viral infection to and harness this knowledge for future development of new classes of vaccines and immunotherapies. We will address the following questions. To what extent is so called “innate memory” caused by the effects of an ongoing adaptive immune response (for example, via paracrine signaling), versus a cell intrinsic property of innate cells, similar to the classic phenomenon of immune memory exhibited by memory T or B cells? Is there an enhanced response of DCs and monocytes, (similar to a memory response in the adaptive immune system), during secondary vaccination or infection? If so, what are the cellular and molecular mechanisms involved? Finally, the third overall goal is to identify signaling and transcription factor (TF) networks associated with T memory cell differentiation and survival and quantify how these networks change with age. This will be achieved in the following projects: Project 1: Immune memory (Ahmed, Hellerstein, Farber); Project 2: Innate immunity (Pulendran, Hellerstein), and Project 3: Immune senescence (Goronzy, Greenleaf). Supported by the following Core A: Adminstration (Ahmed); Core B: Single cell and integrative genomics (Bosinger, Greenleaf); Core C: Clinical and biostatistical (Edupuganti, Kulkanya, Yu).
