G-Protein-Coupled Receptor 68 Negatively Regulates IL-22 Production in Human Th17 Cells

ABSTRACT: Purpose: To identify novel genes regulated by the aryl hydrocarbon receptor that influence human Th17 cell function. Methods: Naïve CD4 T cells from peripheral blood of six healthy human volunteers were cultured under four experimental conditions for three days: anti-CD3 and anti-CD28 antibodies (Media control), Media with Th17 conditions (IL-6, TGF-b, IL-1b, IL-23), Th17+FICZ and Th17+CH223191. Total RNA was extracted from each sample on day 3 and sequenced in a paired-end 2x50bp strategy on an Illumina HiSeq1500. A total of six donors were analyzed. Results: AhR activation with FICZ suppressed IL-17 production from human CD4 T cells and increased IL-22. AhR inhibition with CH223191 potently suppressed IL-22 and modestly increased IL-17 production. On day 3, the number of significantly regulated genes for each treatment were 975 (Th17), 88 (Th17+FICZ) and 142 (Th17+CH223191). 11 common genes were significantly regulated by all three treatments. One of these, GPR68, was investigated further in functional studies since its expression correlated with IL-22 production. Activation of GPR68 with a positive allosteric modulator suppressed IL-22 concentrations in human Th17 cell cultures. Conclusions: Our study demonstrates that GPR68 activation can negatively regulate IL-22 production from human CD4 T cells in the presence of an AhR agonist. RNA-seq is a powerful method to identify novel gene targets that regulate cytokines involved in chronic inflammatory diseases.

miRNA expression in Th17 cells after AhR activation

Project description:Th17 cells play a major role in the pathogenesis of Rheumatoid Arthritis, and it is well known the involvement of the Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor (AhR) during the differentiation and activation of these cells. Due to its function as a transcription factor, we tested wether AhR would mediate part of its function in Th17 cells through the transcription of microRNAs (miRNAs). Therefore, we first perform a microarray experiment to identify the miRNAs induced after AhR activation in Th17 cells. Under a supervised hierarchical clustering, we identify 224 miRNAs differentially expressed (fold-change ³ 2.0 and FDR < 5%). Among them, 22 miRNAs were up regulated exclusively in Th17 cells in the presence of FICZ.

Retinal pigment epithelial cells suppress interleukin-17-producing T-helper 17 cells

Project description:T cells that encounter cultured ocular pigment epithelial cells in vitro are inhibited from undergoing T cell receptor-triggered activation. Because retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells are able to suppress T-cell activation, we studied whether RPE cells could suppress cytokine production by activated T helper (Th) cells. In this study we showed that primary cultured RPE cells greatly suppressed activation of bystander CD4+ T cells in vitro, especially the cytokine production by the target T helper cells (Th1 cells, Th2 cells, Th17 cells, but not Th3 cells). Cultured RPE cells and RPE-supernatants significantly suppressed IL-17 producing CD4+ T cells, and RPE cells fully suppressed polarized Th17 cell lines that induced by recombinant proteins, IL-6 and TGFb2. Moreover, RPE cells failed to suppress IL-17 producing T cells in the presence of rIL-6. In addition, Th17 cells exposed to RPE were suppressed via TGFb, which produce RPE cells. These results indicate that retinal PE cells have immunosuppressive capacity in order to inhibit Th17-type effector T cells. Thus, ocular resident cells play a role in establishing immune regulation in the eye. Retinal pigment epithelium suppresses Th17 cells

Indoles (I3C and DIM)-mediated regulation of microRNAs in DTH model

Project description:Our laboratory observed that indoles (I3C and DIM) suppressed the development of delayed type hypersensitivity (DTH) in mice. Also, we observed differential regulation of regulatory T cells (Tregs) and Th17 cells in mice treated with I3C or DIM. The aim of this experiment was, therefore, to understand the role of I3C or DIM in the regulation of microRNAs (miRs) in immune cells and generation of Tregs and Th17 cells. We also used FICZ, an aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) ligand to understand the role of various ligands in the regulation of Tregs and Th17 cells. To this end, we used draining (inguinal) lymph nodes (LNs) of mice (C57BL/6) with DTH and treated with Vehicle (corn oil, VEH) or I3C or DIM or FICZ. In brief, total RNA including miRs from inguinal LNs were isolated using miRNeasy kit and the protocol of the company was followed (QIAGEN, Valencia, CA). Next, miR arrays were performed at Johns Hopkins University Microarray and Sequencing Core facility using platform.

CIP2A negatively regulates Th17 differentiation

Project description:Interleukin 17 (IL-17) producing T helper 17 (Th17) cells are critical drivers of pathogenesis in a variety of autoimmune and inflammatory diseases. Strategies to mitigate excessive Th17 response thus remain an attractive target for immunotherapies. Here we report that Cancerous Inhibitor of Protein Phosphatase 2A (CIP2A) regulates IL-17 production by Th17 cells in human and mouse. Using CIP2A knock-out (KO) mice and siRNA-mediated CIP2A silencing in human primary CD4+ T cells, we demonstrated that CIP2A silencing results in a significant increase in IL-17 production. Interestingly, CIP2A deficient Th17 cells were characterized by increased strength and duration of STAT3 (Y705) phosphorylation. Genome-wide gene expression profile as well as the p-STAT3 (Y705) interactome of CIP2A deficient Th17 cells identified that CIP2A regulates the strength of the interaction between Acylglycerol kinase (AGK) and STAT3, and thereby, modulates STAT3 phosphorylation as well as expression of IL-17 in Th17 cells. Our results uncover the physiological function of CIP2A in Th17 cells and provides new opportunities for therapeutic intervention in Th17 cell mediated diseases.

Gene array for identifying molecules involved in IL-10 regulation during Th17 polarization

Project description:IL-10 production by Th17 cells is critical for limiting autoimmunity and inflammatory responses. Gene array analysis on Stat6 and T-bet double deficient Th17 cells identified the Th2 transcription factor c-Maf to be synergistically up-regulated by IL-6 plus TGFbeta, and associated with Th17 IL-10 production. Both c-Maf and IL-10 induction during Th17 polarization depended on Stat3, but not Stat6 or Stat1, and mechanistically differed from IL-10 regulation by Th2 or IL-27 signals. TGFbeta was also synergistic with IL-27 to induce c-Maf, and induced Stat1 independent IL-10 expression in contrast to IL-27 alone. Retroviral transduction of c-Maf was able to induce IL-10 expression in Stat6 deficient CD4 and CD8 T cells, and c-Maf directly transactivated IL-10 gene expression through binding to a MARE motif in the IL-10 promoter. Together, these data reveal a novel role for c-Maf in regulating T effector development, and suggest that TGFbeta may antagonize Th17 immunity by IL-10 production through c-Maf induction. Our recent studies showed that IL-6 combined with TGFbeta differed from IL-6 combined with IL-23 for IL-10 production and pathogenic activities in CD4 T cells deficient in Stat6 and T-bet, despite similar IL-17 production. We performed gene array analysis on Stat6 and T-bet double deficient cells. We rationalized that by comparing gene expression in cells treated with IL-6 plus TGFbeta versus TGFbeta alone, we would be able to identify genes specific for standard Th17 polarization, and responsible for both IL-17 and IL-10 expression. By next comparing gene expression in cells treated with IL-6 plus TGFbeta versus IL-6 plus IL-23, we could eliminate molecules involved solely in IL-17 regulation, and obtain genes specifically responsible for IL-10 regulation.

Transcription profiling of mouse SKG FR4-CD4+ cells and age-matched BALB/c FR4-CD4+ cells, and between IFN-g-/- CD4+ cells transferred to RAG2-/- mice and IL-6-/- CD4+ T cells transferred to IL-6-/- RAG2-/- mice

Project description:Th17 cells are enriched by sorting FR4-CD4+ T cells from SKG mice. A large number of Th17 cells also develop spontaneously when CD4+ T cells from IFN-g-deficient (IFN-g-/-) BALB/c mice are transferred to T cell-deficient RAG2-deficient (RAG2-/-) mice and subjected to homeostatic proliferation, whereas they fail to develop in similar transfer of IL-6-deficient (IL-6-/-) CD4+ T cells to IL-6-/- RAG2-/- mice. To explore the functional molecules specifically expressed by Th17 cells, we conducted Gene Microarray analysis between 10-month-old SKG FR4-CD4+ cells and age-matched BALB/c FR4-CD4+ cells, and between IFN-g-/- CD4+ cells transferred to RAG2-/- mice and IL-6-/- CD4+ T cells transferred to IL-6-/- RAG2-/- mice. The analysis revealed that 1,556 and 115 genes were up-regulated in 10-month-old SKG FR4-CD4+ and IFN-g-/- CD4+ T cells after homeostatic proliferation, respectively, with 29 genes shared by the two groups of genes. The 29 genes included those encoding cytokines, chemokines, and their receptors, such as IL-1 receptor type1 (IL-1R1), IL-17, IL-22, IL-21, CCR6, and CCL20. Experiment Overall Design: We conducted Gene Microarray analysis between 10-month-old SKG FR4-CD4+ cells and age-matched BALB/c FR4-CD4+ cells, and between IFN-g-/- CD4+ cells transferred to RAG2-/- mice and IL-6-/- CD4+ T cells transferred to IL-6-/- RAG2-/- mice using GeneChip Mouse Genome 430 2.0 Array (Affymetrix). Each gruop has three replicates.

The TNF family member TL1A induces IL-22 secretion in committed human TH17 cells via IL-9 induction

Project description:TL1A contributes to the pathogenesis of several chronic inflammatory diseases, including Inflammatory Bowel Diseases by enhancing TH1, TH17, and TH2 responses. TL1A mediates a strong co-stimulation of these TH subsets particularly of mucosal CCR9+ T cells. However, the signaling pathways that TL1A induces in different TH subsets are incompletely understood. Here, we investigated the function of TL1A on human TH17 cells. TL1A together with TGF- IL-6, and IL-23 enhanced the secretion of IL-17 and IFN- from human CD4+ memory T cells. TL1A induced the expression of the transcription factors BATF and T-bet that correlated with the secretion of IL-17 and IFN-. In contrast, TL1A alone induced high levels of IL-22 in memory CD4+ T cells and committed TH17 cells. However, TL1A did not enhance expression of IL-17A in TH17 cells. Expression of the transcription factor aryl hydrocarbon receptor that regulates expression of IL-22 was not affected by TL1A. We performed transcriptome analysis of TH17 cells to determine genes that are transcriptionally regulated by TL1A. transcriptome analysis revealed increased expression of IL-9 in response to TL1A.

Cytokine receptor modulation by interleukin-2 broadly regulates T helper cell lineage differentiation

Project description:T helper (Th) cells control host defense to pathogens. IL 12R expression is required for Th1, IL-4RM-NM-1 for Th2, and IL-6RM-NM-1/gp130 for Th17 differentiation to allow responsiveness to IL-12, IL-4, and IL-6, respectively. IL-2 via STAT5 controls Th2 differentiation by regulating the Th2 cytokine gene cluster and Il4ra expression. Here we show that IL-2 regulates Th1 differentiation, inducing STAT5-dependent IL-12RM-NM-22 and T-bet expression, with impaired human Th1 differentiation when IL-2 was blocked. Th1 differentiation was also impaired in mouse Il2-/- T cells but restored by IL-12RM-NM-22 expression. Consistent with IL-2M-bM-^@M-^Ys inhibition of Th17 differentiation, IL-2 decreased Il6ra and Il6st/gp130 expression, and Il6st augmented Th17 differentiation even when IL-2 was present. Thus, IL-2 influences T-cell differentiation by modulating cytokine receptor expression to help specify/maintain differentiated states. Genome-wide mapping of STAT1,STAT4,STAT5A,STAT5B binding to their target genes in Th1 or human CD4+ cells was conducted
