    Abstract Data of molecular dynamics (MD) simulations were obtained for mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) cell ligands complexed with MR1 or MR1/TCR. Ligands included in the simulations were natural ligands 5-(2-oxoethylideneamino)-6-D-ribitylaminouracil (5-OE-RU), 5-(2-oxopropylideneamino)-6-(D-ribitylamino)uracil (5-OP-RU), their C5’ ethinylated analogs in S or R configuration, as well as the corresponding fluorophore-reacted products. All-atom models of the binary and ternary complexes were constructed using PDB entry 4NQE and docked poses [1]. Missing loops, N- and C-termini were completed by homology modelling, the loop conformations optimized, and the models energy minimized prior to setup for MD simulations. A standard pre-equilibration protocol was applied before the production phase of 120 ns simulation as NPT ensemble at 300 K and 1 atm applying an explicit solvent model with OPLS3 force field parameters. Atomic coordinates and energies were recorded every 60 ps and 12 ps, respectively. The corresponding raw data files of the MD simulations are part of this dataset. All simulations were analysed with respect to root mean square deviations (rmsd) and root mean square fluctuations (rmsf) of the coordinates of protein and ligand atoms, stability of protein secondary structure, protein-ligand contacts, ligand torsion profiles, and ligand properties. More detailed statistics of non-covalent interaction counts were also collected. Radial distribution functions (rdf) were calculated when relevant. Visualization of the trajectories permits appreciation of the molecular dynamics of both, ligands and proteins and their interactions, thereby supporting drug design of MAIT cell ligands; furthermore, additional analysis of e.g. conformational changes or interactions not reported in the primary publication [1] can be performed on the data. The raw data may also be used as starting point for extension of the simulations or more sophisticated MD techniques.

    Abstract Summary: Generating knockout mice for target molecules in specific T cell populations, without subset-specific promoters, is time-consuming and costly. Here, we describe steps for enriching mucosal-associated invariant T cells from the thymus, expanding them in vitro and performing a CRISPR-Cas9 knockout. We then detail procedure for injecting the knockout cells into wounded Cd3ε−/− mice and characterizing them in the skin.For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to du Halgouet et al. (2023).1 : Publisher’s note: Undertaking any experimental protocol requires adherence to local institutional guidelines for laboratory safety and ethics.

    Abstract Liver cirrhosis is characterised by extensive fibrosis of the liver, and understanding the underpinning immunological processes is important in designing intervention. Here authors show that Mucosal-Associated Invariant T cells are instrumental to controlling the balance between profibrogenic and restorative macrophages and inhibiting their activation might reverse liver fibrosis.

    Abstract Summary: The deleterious effects of psychological stress on mainstream T lymphocytes are well documented. However, how stress impacts innate-like T cells is unclear. We report that long-term stress surprisingly abrogates both T helper 1 (TH1)- and TH2-type responses orchestrated by invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cells. This is not due to iNKT cell death because these cells are unusually refractory to stress-inflicted apoptosis. Activated iNKT cells in stressed mice exhibit a “split” inflammatory signature and trigger sudden serum interleukin-10 (IL-10), IL-23, and IL-27 spikes. iNKT cell dysregulation is mediated by cell-autonomous glucocorticoid receptor signaling and corrected upon habituation to predictable stressors. Importantly, under stress, iNKT cells fail to potentiate cytotoxicity against lymphoma or to reduce the burden of metastatic melanoma. Finally, stress physically spares mouse mucosa-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells but hinders their TH1-/TH2-type responses. The above findings are corroborated in human peripheral blood and hepatic iNKT/MAIT cell cultures. Our work uncovers a mechanism of stress-induced immunosuppression.

    Abstract Phenotypic and functional states of dendritic cells critically influence the outcome of cancer and inflammation. Authors here show by single cell transcriptomics and in vitro validation assays that dichotomous PD-L1 and ICOSL expression assign dendritic cells to secretory and helper functions, with respective predominance of inflammatory cytokine expression or T helper cytokine induction.

    Abstract Abstract Concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CRT) with blockade of the PD-1 pathway may enhance immune-mediated tumor control through increased phagocytosis, cell death, and antigen presentation. The NiCOL phase 1 trial (NCT03298893) is designed to determine the safety/tolerance profile and the recommended phase-II dose of nivolumab with and following concurrent CRT in 16 women with locally advanced cervical cancer. Secondary endpoints include objective response rate (ORR), progression free survival (PFS), disease free survival, and immune correlates of response. Three patients experience grade 3 dose-limiting toxicities. The pre-specified endpoints are met, and overall response rate is 93.8% [95%CI: 69.8–99.8%] with a 2-year PFS of 75% [95% CI: 56.5–99.5%]. Compared to patients with progressive disease (PD), progression-free (PF) subjects show a brisker stromal immune infiltrate, higher proximity of tumor-infiltrating CD3+ T cells to PD-L1+ tumor cells and of FOXP3+ T cells to proliferating CD11c+ myeloid cells. PF show higher baseline levels of PD-1 and ICOS-L on tumor-infiltrating EMRA CD4+ T cells and tumor-associated macrophages, respectively; PD instead, display enhanced PD-L1 expression on TAMs, higher peripheral frequencies of proliferating Tregs at baseline and higher PD-1 levels at week 6 post-treatment initiation on CD4 and CD8 T cell subsets. Concomitant nivolumab plus definitive CRT is safe and associated with encouraging PFS rates. Further validation in the subset of locally advanced cervical cancer displaying pre-existing, adaptive immune activation is warranted.
