S1P-dependent inter-organ trafficking of group 2 innate lymphoid cells supports host defense

ABSTRACT: Innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) are considered to be the innate counterparts of adaptive T lymphocytes and play important roles in host defense, tissue repair, metabolic homeostasis, and inflammatory diseases. ILCs are generally thought of as tissue-resident cells, but whether ILCs strictly behave in a tissue-resident manner or can move between sites during infection is unclear. We show here that IL-25- or helminthic infection-induced inflammatory ILC2s are not tissue-resident but circulating cells, which arise from resting ILC2s residing in intestinal lamina propria and then migrate to mesenteric lymph nodes, spleen, lung, and liver. IL-25 induces rapid proliferation of the intestinal ILC2s and a change in their sensitivity to S1P-mediated chemotaxis, leading to lymphatic entry, blood circulation, and accumulation in periphery sites, including the lung where they contribute to anti-helminth defense and tissue repair. Our finding of cytokine-driven expansion and migration of innate lymphocytes, a behavioral parallel to the antigen-driven priming, expansion, and migration of adaptive lymphocytes to effector sites in distant tissues, provides a significant advance in our overall understanding of ILCs and indicates that ILCs complement adaptive immunity by providing both local and distant site effector protection during infection.

The transcription factor GATA3 is critical for the development of all IL-7Ra-expressing innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) and maintenance of type 2 ILCs

Project description:Innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) play critical roles during innate immune responses to pathogens and lymphoid organ development. IL-7Ra+ ILC subsets, similar to T helper (Th) cell subsets, produce distinctive effector cytokines. The molecular control of IL-7Ra+ ILC development and maintenance has yet to be dissected. Here we report that GATA3 is indispensable for the development of all IL-7Ra+ ILC subsets and T cells. Gata3 conditional deficient mice have no lymph nodes and are susceptible to Citrobactor rodentium infection. Genome-wide gene analyses indicate that GATA3 regulates similar set of cytokines and receptors in ILC2s and Th2 cells and is critical for the maintenance of ILC2s. Thus, GATA3 plays parallel roles in establishing and regulating both adaptive and innate lymphocytes. To identify GATA3 regulated genes in type 2 innate lymphoid cells by tamoxifen-mediated acute deletion of Gata3 gene.

γδT cell Interactions within the Tissue Ecosystem Network [bulk RNAseq]

Project description:Numerous lymphocytes seed the body surfaces of metazoans promoting tissue protection and integrity. These tissue-resident populations differ substantially from circulating lymphocytes, as they adopt a unique phenotype and do not recirculate. They span the innate-adaptive continuum, ranging from innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) to unconventional T cells (NKT, MAIT, γδT cells and IELs) and tissue-resident memory (TRM) T cells, and while differ in the particulars of their biology, all contribute to barrier immunity, tissue homeostasis, and immune regulation. Although they share the same microenvironment, little is known about how these tissue-resident lymphocyte populations interact with each other and with the non-lymphoid cellular environment. As such, there is an emerging view of tissues as varied ‘‘ ecosystems ’’, whereby protection against inflammatory challenges is orchestrated through the interplay between tissue-resident and infiltrating-lymphocyte subtypes. In mice, barrier tissues are populated during early life by innate-like γδT lymphocytes. These cells provide tissue protection, including limiting conventional T cell-driven inflammation. Therefore, elucidating the contributions of tissue-resident T cells, particularly γδT cells, to the basic pathophysiology of tissue function and protection against infection, inflammation, and cancer is a priority. To this aim, we have induced allergic contact dermatitis in the back skin of different strains and we analyzed the behavior of γδT cells

Transcriptional profiles of human circulating innate lymphoid cells and CD4 T helper cells

Project description:Innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) are part of the innate immune cell family. Three different subsets of ILCs, ILC1s, ILC2s and ILCPs can be identified in human peripheral blood. Based on their expression of transcription factors and cytokines, they are considered as being the innate counterparts of CD4 T helper subsets, namely Th1s, Th2s and Th17s. However, ILCs and Th cells have different roles in immunity. Therefore, we compared the transcriptomes of sorted ILC1s, ILC2s, ILCPs, Th1s, Th2s and Th17s from the peripheral blood of three different donors. RNA sequencing of ILC and Th subsets revealed differences in the expression of tens to hundreds of genes. These genes are involved in cell trafficking, innate activation and inhibitory functions. ILC and Th cell subsets also differ in their expressions of long-non coding RNAs.

IL-1beta, IL-23, and TGF-beta drive plasticity of human ILC2s towards IL-17-producing ILCs in nasal inflammation

Project description:Innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) are crucial for the immune surveillance at mucosal sites. ILCs coordinate early eradication of pathogens and contribute to tissue healing and remodelling, features that are dysfunctional in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF). The mechanisms by which ILCs contribute to CF-immunopathology are ill-defined. Here, we report that group 2 ILCs (ILC2s) transdifferentiated into IL-17-secreting cells in the presence of the epithelial derived-cytokines IL-1β, IL-23 and TGF-β. This conversion was abrogated by IL-4 or vitamin D3. IL-17 producing ILC2s induced IL-8 secretion by epithelial cells and their presence in nasal polyps of CF patients is associated with neutrophilia. Our data suggest that ILC2s undergo transdifferentiation in CF nasal polyps in response to local cytokines, which are induced by infectious agents.

Group 3 innate lymphoid cells continuously require the transcription factor GATA3 after commitment

Project description:GATA3 is indispensable for the development of all IL-7RÎ±-expressing innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) and maintenance of type 1 ILCs (ILC1s) and type 2 ILCs (ILC2s). However, the importance of low GATA3 expression in type 3 ILCs (ILC3s) is still elusive. Here, we report that GATA3 regulates homeostasis of ILC3s by controlling IL-7RÎ± expression. In addition, GATA3 is critical for the development of NKp46+ ILC3 subset partially through regulating the balance between T-bet and RORÎ³t. Genome-wide analyses indicate that while GATA3 positively regulates CCR6+ and NKp46+ ILC3 subset-specific genes in respective lineages, it negatively regulates CCR6+ ILC3-specific genes in NKp46+ ILC3s. Furthermore, GATA3 regulates IL-22 production in both CCR6+ and NKp46+ ILC3s. Thus, low GATA3 expression is critical for the development and function of ILC3 subsets. To identify GATA3 regulated genes in total ILC3s with RNA-Seq; To identify unique genes expressed by CCR6+ ILC3 or NKp46+ ILC3 and GATA3 regulated genes within these two ILC3 subsets with RNA-Seq; To identify GATA3 direct binding sites in ILC3s, ILC2s and Th2 cells with ChIP-Seq.

An innate IL-25-ILC2-MDSC axis creates a cancer-permissive microenvironment for Apc-mutation-driven intestinal tumorigenesis

Project description:Interleukin-25 and group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) defend the host against intestinal helminth infection, and are associated with inappropriate allergic reactions. Recently, it was reported that IL-33-activated ILC2s augment protective tissue-specific pancreatic cancer immunity. Here we show a diametrically opposite role for intestinal IL-25-activated ILC2s where they create an innate cancer-permissive microenvironment. Colorectal cancer (CRC) patients with higher tumor IL25 expression have reduced survival, and increased IL-25 Rexpressing tumor-resident ILC2s and myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) associated with impaired anti-tumor responses. Ablation of IL-25-signalling reduced tumors, virtually doubling life-expectancy in an Apc-mutation-driven model of spontaneous intestinal tumorigenesis. Mechanistically, IL-25 promotes tumor ILC2s, which sustain MDSCs to suppress anti-tumor immunity. Therapeutic blockade of IL-25-signalling decreased ILC2s, MDSCs and adenoma/adenocarcinoma, while increasing anti-tumor IFNg and adaptive T cell immunity. Thus, the roles of innate epithelium-derived cytokines IL-25 and IL-33, and ILC2s in cancer cannot be generalized, and instead offer differential pathways for therapeutic intervention.

Neuromedin U receptor-1 amplifies inflammatory lung innate lymphoid cells

Project description:Type 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) promote mucosal homeostasis, yet also contribute to pathologic type 2 inflammation in allergic asthma. Alarmin cytokines produced by damaged and stressed epithelial cells, such as IL-25, activate ILC2s, but it remains unclear if these cytokines are unique in switching homeostatic ILC2s into pro-inflammatory cells that drive tissue inflammation. To identify molecular cues that modulate ILC responses to alarmins, we collected single-cell RNA-seq profiles of lung-resident ILCs at steady state and after in vivo stimulation. Computational and functional analysis identified that ILC2s express the neuropeptide receptor Nmur1. Neuromedin U (NMU), the ligand of Nmur1, activates ILCs in vitro, and when co-administered with IL-25 in vivo, NMU dramatically amplifies allergic inflammation and induces ILC2 expansion. Finally, loss of NMU/Nmur1-signaling reduces ILC2 frequency and effector function following allergen challenge in vivo. Our results demonstrate that Nmur1 signaling modifies alarmin-mediated ILC2 responses to promote pro-inflammatory ILCs, and highlights the importance of neuro-immune crosstalk in allergic inflammatory responses at mucosal surfaces.

A Gata3 enhancer necessary for ILC2 development and function

Project description:The type 2 helper effector program is driven by the master transcription factor GATA3 and can be expressed by subsets of both innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) and adaptive CD4+ T helper (Th) cells. While ILC2s and Th2 cells acquire their type 2 differentiation program under very different contexts, the distinct regulatory mechanisms governing this common program are only partially understood. Here we show that the differentiation of ILC2s, and their concomitant high level of GATA3 expression, are controlled by a Gata3 enhancer, Gata3 +674/762, that plays only a minimal role in Th2 cell differentiation. Mice lacking this enhancer exhibited defects in several but not all type 2 inflammatory responses, depending on the respective degree of ILC2 and Th2 cell involvement. Our study provides molecular insights into the different gene regulatory pathways leading to the acquisition of the GATA3-driven type 2 helper effector program in innate and adaptive lymphocytes.

Adventitial stromal cells define group 2 innate lymphoid cell tissue niches

Project description:We identify a subset of IL-33 expressing adventitial stromal cells as local regulators of ILC2s Type 2 lymphocytes promote both physiologic tissue remodeling and allergic pathology, yet their physical tissue niches are poorly described. In this study, we used quantitative imaging together with scRNAseq to define tissue niches of group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s), critical instigators of type 2 immunity. We identified a dominant adventitial cuff niche around lung bronchi and larger vessels in multiple tissues, where ILC2s localized with subsets of dendritic and regulatory T cells. However, ILC2s were most intimately associated with adventitial stromal cells (ASC), a mesenchymal fibroblast-like subset that expressed Interleukin-33 (IL-33) and thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP) and supported ILC2s and tissue-resident Th2 cells.
