T he use of retrogenic mice offers a rapid and flexible approach to T cell receptor (TCRTCRTCR)-transgenic mice. By transducing bone marrow progenitor cells with a retrovirus that encodes a given TCRTCRTCR-a/b subunit, TCRTCRTCR-retrogenic mice can be generated in as few as 4-6 weeks, whereas conventional TCRTCRTCR transgenics can take 6 months or longer. In this updated protocol, we have increased the efficiency of the bone marrow transduction and bone marrow reconstitution compared with our previously published protocol. The main departure from the previous protocol is the implementation of spin transduction with the viral supernatant instead of coculture with the viral producer cell line. The changes in this protocol improve bone marrow viability, increase consistency of the bone marrow transduction and bone marrow engraftment, and they reduce the ratio of bone marrow donor mice to bone marrow recipients.

Function, Failure, and the Future Potential of Tregs in Type 1 Diabetes

Maria Bettini, Matthew L. Bettini

Summary: Insights into the etiology of type 1 diabetes (T1D) have shown a clear connection between genetic susceptibility and immune cell function, particularly regulatory T-cell (Treg) function. Advances in epigenetic and transcriptional analyses have provided evidence for Treg dysfunction in T1D, with future studies focusing on directly assessing Treg function and underlying mechanisms in T1D at tissue sites like pancreatic lymph nodes and pancreas.

T-Cell Receptor/HLA Humanized Mice Reveal Reduced Tolerance and Increased Immunogenicity of Posttranslationally Modified GAD65 Epitope

Yi Jing, Yuelin Kong, John McGinty, Gabriele Blahnik-Fagan, Thomas Lee, Stephanie Orozco-Figueroa, Matthew L. Bettini, Eddie A. James, Maria Bettini

Summary: Accumulating evidence suggests that posttranslationally modified islet neoantigens play a critical role in type 1 diabetes. However, our understanding of thymic development and peripheral activation of PTM autoantigen-reactive T cells is limited. This study found that deamidation of GAD65(115-127) generates a more immunogenic epitope, leading to recruitment of T cells with promiscuous recognition of both deamidated and native epitopes and reduced frequency of regulatory T cells.

A dormant T-cell population with autoimmune potential exhibits low self-reactivity and infiltrates islets in type 1 diabetes

Summary: The contribution of low-affinity T cells to autoimmunity has been understudied due to limitations in detection methods. Our study found a population of low-affinity T cells in the pancreatic islets of prediabetic NOD mice, which exhibited reduced reactivity to self-tissue and minimal effector function but induced rapid diabetes upon transfer. These cells had transcriptional characteristics of central memory T cells and relied on TCR affinity to shape their phenotype and function. Our findings suggest that low-affinity T cells may play an important role in long-term chronic autoimmunity.

Immunogen-Specific Strengths and Limitations of the Activation-Induced Marker Assay for Assessing Murine Antigen-Specific CD4+T Cell Responses

Summary: The AIM assay is a cytokine-independent technique for identifying Ag-specific T cells based on upregulated expression of activation markers after Ag restimulation. This study analyzed immune responses of TCR-transgenic CD4+ T cells and found that the AIM assay is effective for identifying the frequency of protein immunization-induced effector and memory CD4+ T cells but has limitations in identifying cells induced by viral infection, especially chronic infection. The findings suggest that the AIM assay is a useful tool for quantifying murine Ag-specific CD4+ T cells in protein vaccination.
