Quiescent Tissue Stem Cells Evade Immune Surveillance

Abstract: Stem cells are critical for the maintenance of many tissues, but whether their integrity is maintained in the face of immunity is unclear. Here we found that cycling epithelial stem cells, including Lgr5 intestinal stem cells, as well as ovary and mammary stem cells, were eliminated by activated T cells, but quiescent stem cells in the hair follicle and muscle were resistant to T cell killing. Immune evasion was an intrinsic property of the quiescent stem cells resulting from systemic downregulation of the ant… Show more

“…To overcome this limitation, we took advantage of just eGFP death inducing (Jedi) T cells, which express a T cell receptor that recognizes the immunodominant epitope of GFP loaded in the H-2Kd allele of MHC-I (Agudo et al, 2015). Jedi T cells enable GFP to be used as a model antigen that can be easily detected (Agudo et al, 2018). We engineered 4T1 to express either GFP (4T1-GFP) or near-infrared fluorescent protein 670 (4T1-RFP) alone, or with Cas9 (4T1-Cas9-GFP and 4T1-Cas9-RFP).…”

“…Agudo and colleagues recently uncovered that a stem cell’s immune privilege status is linked to its level of activity (Agudo et al, 2018). Like most tissue cells, cycling stem cells of the intestine, ovary and mammary gland display major histocompatibility class I (MHC-I) as well as an array of cytokine receptors on their surface.…”

“…Surprisingly, Treg cells were in dynamic equilibrium with hair‐regrowth phases, and influenced follicular stem cell quiescence by expression of the Notch1 ligand Jagged 1. Similarly, Treg cells play an active role in protecting the intestinal epithelial, and bone marrow stem cell niche . Finally, tissue‐resident Treg cells also express certain genes involved in epithelial cell repair, such as the growth factor amphiregulin ( Areg ), and thereby contribute to wound healing.…”
