الوصف: T cells persist as heterogeneous subsets throughout the body and are essential in mounting protective immune responses. In healthy humans, most of our knowledge of T cell activation derives from sampling the peripheral blood and therefore the transcriptional states of tissue T cells, their functional responses to stimulation, and how they relate to T cells in blood have been poorly defined. Here, we profile the activation dynamics of T cells isolated from human lungs (LG), lymph nodes (LN), bone marrow (BM) and blood following TCR-stimulation by single cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq). Analysis of >50,000 individual resting and activated T cells using clustering and new factorization methods reveals lineage-specific gene expression signatures and discrete activation trajectories in all tissues. Between sites, T cells from LG and LN are most distinct, while blood T cells are most similar to those in BM but persist in a more activated basal state. We identify a common transcriptional profile of tissue T cells and detect trace numbers of these cells in the blood. We also define cellular states for resting and activated T cells across tissues, including an interferon-induced state in CD4+ T cells and distinct effector states specific to CD8+ T cells, and uncover new markers of T cell activation that may be central to T cell function. Importantly, we demonstrate that the T cell activation states resolved here serve as a new baseline for defining T cell dysfunction in disease, revealing novel insights into T cell states among tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes from previous studies. Our investigation couples scRNA-seq with new analysis methods to define the activation dynamics of human T cells from disparate anatomical sites on a single cell level.
