A number of nonclassical MHC Ib molecules recognizing distinct microbial antigens
have been implicated in the immune response to Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb).
HLA-E has been identified to present numerous Mtb peptides to CD8+ T cells, with
multiple HLA-E-restricted cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) and regulatory T cell
lines isolated from patients with active and latent tuberculosis (TB). In other
disease models, HLA-E and its mouse homolog Qa-1 can act as antigen presenting
molecules as well as regulators of the immune response. However, it is unclear
what precise role(s) HLA-E/Qa-1 play in the immune response to Mtb. In this
study, we found that murine Qa-1 can bind and present Mtb peptide antigens to
CD8+ T effector cells during aerosol Mtb infection. Further, mice lacking Qa-1
(Qa-1-/-) were more susceptible to high-dose Mtb infection compared to wild-type
controls, with higher bacterial burdens and increased mortality. The increased
susceptibility of Qa-1-/- mice was associated with dysregulated T cells that were
more activated and produced higher levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines. T cells
from Qa-1-/- mice also had increased expression of inhibitory and
apoptosis-associated cell surface markers such as CD94/NKG2A, KLRG1, PD-1, Fas-L,
and CTLA-4. As such, they were more prone to cell death and had decreased
capacity in promoting the killing of Mtb in infected macrophages. Lastly,
comparing the immune responses of Qa-1 mutant knock-in mice deficient in either
Qa-1-restricted CD8+ Tregs (Qa-1 D227K) or the inhibitory Qa-1-CD94/NKG2A
interaction (Qa-1 R72A) with Qa-1-/- and wild-type controls indicated that both
of these Qa-1-mediated mechanisms were involved in suppression of the immune
response in Mtb infection. Our findings reveal that Qa-1 participates in the
immune response to Mtb infection by presenting peptide antigens as well as
regulating immune responses, resulting in more effective anti-Mtb immunity.
