Abstract
- Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) vaccination is a prototype model for the study of trained immunity (TI) in humans, and results in a more effective response of innate immune cells upon stimulation with heterologous stimuli. Here, we investigate the heterogeneity of TI induction by single-cell RNA sequencing of immune cells collected from 156 samples. We observe that both monocytes and CD8<superscript>+</superscript> T cells show heterologous transcriptional responses to lipopolysaccharide, with an active crosstalk between these two cell types. Furthermore, the interferon-γ pathway is crucial in BCG-induced TI, and it is upregulated in functional high responders. Data-driven analyses and functional experiments reveal STAT1 to be one of the important transcription factors for TI shared in all identified monocyte subpopulations. Finally, we report the role of type I interferon-related and neutrophil-related TI transcriptional programs in patients with sepsis. These findings provide comprehensive insights into the importance of monocyte heterogeneity during TI in humans. [Display omitted] • IFN-γ plays an important role in amplifying trained immunity response • Monocytes show heterogeneous trained immunity capacity after in vivo BCG vaccination • Trained monocytes are regulated by different transcription factors including STAT1 • A developed tool for user to test trained immunity signatures in transcriptome data Li et al. show that BCG vaccination induces an enhanced antimicrobial response upon secondary stimulation, and this effect is heterogeneous at single-cell level. These findings provide comprehensive insights into the molecular mechanism of trained immunity and its role in immune-mediated diseases. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
