BABEL enables cross-modality translation between multiomic profiles at single-cell resolution

Kevin E. Wu, Kathryn E. Yost, Howard Y. Chang, James Zou

Summary: BABEL is a deep learning method that can translate between the transcriptome and chromatin profiles of a single cell, enabling computation of paired multiomic measurements when only one modality is experimentally available. The method accurately translates information between different modalities in several datasets and generalizes well to cell types in new biological contexts.

Summary: Different sublineages of iNKT cells exhibit distinct functions, with iNKT1 cells showing the highest antitumor activity against murine B-cell lymphoma cells, while iNKT2 and iNKT17 cells have immune-regulatory properties. These findings have important implications for the development of iNKT cell therapies in cancer immunotherapy and GVHD prevention and treatment.

Identification of a T-bethi Quiescent Exhausted CD8 T Cell Subpopulation That Can Differentiate into TIM3+CX3CR1+ Effectors and Memory-like Cells

Saravanan Raju, Yu Xia, Bence Danie, Kathryn E. Yost, Elliot Bradshaw, Elena Tonc, Daniel J. Verbaro, Kohei Kometani, Wayne M. Yokoyama, Tomohiro Kurosaki, Ansuman T. Satpathy, Takeshi Egawa

Summary: In a mouse model of chronic lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus infection, a subset of CX3CR1(+) CD8 T cells was identified to contain a distinct TIM3-PD-1(lo) subpopulation, different from the proliferative effector subset. These TIM3-CX3CR1(+) cells were quiescent and expressed a low level of the transcription factor TCF-1, resembling TCF-1(hi) progenitor CD8 T cells. This subset appears to support the generation of an effector pool from TCF-1(hi) progenitors and contribute to memory-like cells following viral clearance.

Summary: Extrachromosomal DNA (ecDNA) hubs are clusters of ecDNAs within the nucleus that enable intermolecular enhancer-gene interactions, promoting oncogene overexpression. The protein-tethered ecDNA hubs facilitate intermolecular transcriptional regulation, serving as units of oncogene function and potential targets for cancer therapy.

Summary: This study investigates the heterogeneity of cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) using a comprehensive multiomics approach, identifying three superclusters of CAFs. The study finds that disrupting mechanical force or immune checkpoint inhibition therapy leads to changes in the distribution of CAF subpopulations and affects tumor growth. The results of this research are important for expanding our understanding of CAF biology, identifying regulatory pathways in CAF differentiation, and discovering therapeutic targets for tumor treatment.

The evolutionary dynamics of extrachromosomal DNA in human cancers

Erb, Utkrisht Rajkumar, Sihan Wu, Sabine Taschner-Mandl, Marie Bernkopf, Charles Swanton, Zhe Liu, Weini Huang, Howard Y. Chang, Vineet Bafna, Anton G. Henssen, Benjamin Werner, Paul S. Mischel

Summary: Random segregation of extrachromosomal DNA contributes to intratumoral heterogeneity and facilitates the rapid adaptation of human tumor cells to anticancer drugs. Oncogene amplification on extrachromosomal DNA (ecDNA) is a common event, driving aggressive tumor growth, drug resistance and shorter survival. Through theoretical models, unbiased image analysis, CRISPR-based ecDNA tagging with live-cell imaging and CRISPR-C, it is shown that random ecDNA inheritance results in extensive intratumoral ecDNA copy number heterogeneity and rapid adaptation to metabolic stress and targeted treatment.

Summary: In this study, the authors generate a single-cell multiomic atlas of T cell exhaustion in chronic viral infection, revealing molecular programs and clonal differentiation trajectories of exhausted T cell subsets. The results show that T cell receptor signal strength is a driver of clonal fate in T cell exhaustion.

Summary: In this study, we present a lentiviral-mediated cell entry technique called engineered receptor-ligand interaction (ENTER) that enables the display of ligand proteins, delivery of payloads, and recording of receptor specificity. We optimize ENTER to decode interactions between various receptor-ligand pairs and demonstrate its application in T cell receptor-MHC peptides, antibody-antigen, and B cell receptor-antigen interactions. Using RNA sequencing (ENTER-seq), we achieve a single-cell readout of ENTER, allowing for the multiplexed enumeration of antigen specificities, TCR clonality, cell type, and states of individual T cells. In addition, ENTER technology enables the systematic discovery of receptor specificity, linkage to cell fates, and antigen-specific cargo delivery.

Summary: Recovery from COVID-19 does not guarantee immunity, as reinfection with a different strain can occur. In this study, we present a case of reinfection with a variant strain carrying the D614G mutation. By analyzing antibodies, B cells, and T cells, we provide evidence of adaptive immunity during reinfection. Our findings have implications for vaccine programs and establishing benchmarks for protection against SARS-CoV-2 reinfection.
