Summary (written by the submitters)
Whether a T-cell response to dead cells arises depends on whether they harbor recognizable antigens, but also how dead cell debris impacts conventional dendritic cells (cDCs). In all tissues, cell debris is continuously phagocytosed by cDCs that can migrate to lymph nodes (LNs) and initiate T-cell responses, depending on their maturation state.

The cDC1 lineage excels at antigen cross-presentation, which is required for induction of the cytotoxic CD8+ T-lymphocyte (CTL) response. At steady state, cDC1s undergo homeostatic maturation, which leads to T-cell non-responsiveness. This cDC1 state has recently been defined by ex vivo transcriptomics as resulting from phagocytosis of apoptotic cell debris. Necroptotic (tumor) cell death has been described as more immunogenic than apoptotic cell death, but its impact on cDC maturation has not been defined. In this study, we use an in vitro model to compare side-by-side the impact of well-defined apoptotic versus necroptotic tumor cell debris on the CTL response induced by cDCs, as well as on phenotype and function of both cDC1s and cDC2s. We confirm that cDC2s are less efficient than cDC1s in dead cell phagocytosis and find that they minimally respond to it in terms of gene expression. Apoptotic cell debris is more efficiently phagocytosed by cDC1s than necroptotic cell debris and induces a cDC1 cell state in vitro that has an evident transcriptomic relationship to the homeostatic maturation state defined ex vivo, thus validating our approach. We identify necroptosis as more potent than apoptosis in inducing a CTL response and attribute this to the ability of necroptotic cell debris to induce a specific, transcriptomically defined maturation state in cDC1s, characterized by cytokine and phosphoinositide signaling, cytoskeletal and metabolic activity and functional differentiation. We suggest that this cDC1 signature may be used to diagnose immunogenicity of necroptosis ex vivo.

Download · which file do I need?

Direct links to NCBI and ENA, no account and no request form. Pick by what you want to do: take the small processed table to look, the supplementary files to re-analyse, or the original raw data to start over.

1 · Just have a look

Processed table

The series matrix: one table of values per sample as the submitters processed it. The smallest download, and it opens in Excel or R. Start here to see what the data look like.

2 · Re-analyse it

Supplementary files

The count tables and other files the authors uploaded. Take only the samples you need, or the whole study as GSE314783_RAW.tar (it can run to tens of gigabytes).

3 · Start from the raw reads

Raw sequencing reads

The original FASTQ files, straight from the sequencer, held at ENA. Large, and you align them yourself, so only choose this if you need to re-process the study from scratch.

What the files usually look like: For RNA-seq the counts are usually a table among the supplementary files (look for 'counts', 'expression', 'FPKM' or 'TPM' in the file name). The series matrix of a sequencing study is sometimes nearly empty.

Also filed as BioProject PRJNA1392598 and SRA study SRP657438. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.
