Early-life thymectomy leads to an increase of granzyme-producing γδ T cells in children with congenital heart disease

GSE274083 Homo sapiens Expression profiling by high throughput sequencing 6 samples Submitted 2024/08/06 Platform GPL34281
Summary
Congenital heart disease (CHD) is the most common birth defect in newborns, often requiring cardiac surgery with concomitant thymectomy that is known to increase disease susceptibility later in life. Studies of γδ T cells, which are one of the dominant T cells in the early fetal human thymus, are rare. Here, we provide a comprehensive analysis of the γδ T cell compartment via flow cytometry and next-generation sequencing in children and infants with CHD, who underwent cardiac surgery shortly after birth. A perturbation of the γδ T cell repertoire is evident and Vδ1 T cell numbers are reduced. However, those cells that are present, do retain cytotoxicity. In contrast, GZMA+CD28+CD161hi innate effector Vγ9Vδ2 T cells are found in higher proportions. TCR-seq identifies an increase in TRDJ3+ γδ T cell clones in children with CHD, but not in a confirmatory group of neonates prior to CHD surgery, which overall points to a persistence of fetal-derived effector γδ T cells in children with CHD.
