Description
Integration of multiple signals shapes cell adaptation to their microenvironment through synergistic and antagonistic interactions. The combinatorial complexity governing signal integration for multiple cellular output responses has not been resolved. For outputs measured in the conditions 0 (control), signals X, Y, X+Y, combinatorial analysis revealed 82 possible interaction profiles, which we biologically assimilated to 5 positive, and 5 negative interaction modes. To experimentally validate their use in living cells, we designed an original computational workflow, and applied it to transcriptomics data of innate immune cells integrating physiopathological signal combinations. Up to 9 of the 10 defined modes coexisted in context-dependent proportions. Each integration mode was enriched in specific molecular pathways, suggesting a coupling between genes involved in particular functions, and the corresponding mode of integration. We propose that multimodality and functional coupling are general principles underlying the systems level integration of physiopathological and pharmacological stimuli by mammalian cells.

Description
The ontogeny of human Langerhans cells (LCs) remains poorly characterized, in particular the nature of LC precursors and the factors that may drive LC differentiation. Through a systematic transcriptomic analysis of TSLP-activated dendritic cells (DCs), we unexpectedly identified markers that have been associated with a skin-homing potential as well as with a LC phenotype. We performed transcriptomic analysis of TSLP-activated blood DCs, as compared to freshly purified, Medium-, and TNF-activated DCs. Among TSLP up-regulated genes, we identified molecules associated with skin homing, LC phenotype, and LC function, as determined by a literature-based survey. Conversely, genes not expressed in LCs were not found among TSLP-induced genes. Further experiments showed that TGF- synergized with TSLP leading to the differentiation of blood BDCA-1+ DCs into bona fide Birbeck granule-positive LCs.

Description
Immunomodulatory drugs (IMiDs), such as lenalidomide provide a tool to enhance both direct anti-tumor and graft-versus-tumor effects after allogeneic haematopoietic stem-cell transplantation (AHCT). However, early clinical experience with IMiDs after AHCT using adult peripheral blood (APB) as a stem cell source has been limited by induction of graft-versus-host disease. Characterization of the mechanisms by which IMIDs can modulate alloresponses of T-cells from different cell sources could facilitate more effective use of these drugs in the setting of AHCT. In this study we have used in vitro modelling to identify changes in alloresponses of APB and umbilical cord blood (UCB) T-cells after exposure to the widely used IMiD lenalidomide. We demonstrate that lenalidomide increases net alloproliferation of APB T-cells by selectively enhancing allospecific proliferation of CD8+ T-cells. These CD8+ T-cells have enhanced effector memory differentiation, are enriched for polyfunctional effectors, and have a distinct gene expression profile with altered expression of key immunoregulatory genes. In contrast, although lenalidomide treatment of UCB T-cells results in a similar increase in alloreactive effector CD8+ T-cells, it also reduces allospecific proliferation of CD4+ T-cells and selectively expands frequencies of CD4+ regulatory T-cells, resulting in a net reduction in UCB T-cell alloproliferation. Our findings show that lenalidomide has a qualitatively different impact on alloresponses of T-cells from different cell sources, with a potentially tolerogenic effect on UCB T-cells. These findings have important implications for the future use of IMiDs in the setting of AHCT.

Description
CD27 and CD45RA can be used to split T cells into 4 subsets, nave cells, CD27+CD45RA+, central memory cells CD27+CD45RA-, effector memory cells CD27-CD45RA-, effector memory CD45RA re-expressing cell, CD27-CD45RA+. It is with in this final EMRA subset that it is belived the senenscent T cells reside. Cellular senescence is accompanied by a senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP), to date a SASP has not been demonstrated in T cells.
