Cell intrinsic Wnt4 influences cDC fate determination to suppress Type 2 immunity

ABSTRACT: We demonstrate that Wnt4, a beta-catenin independent Wnt ligand, is produced by both hematopoietic and non-hematopoietic cells and is both necessary and sufficient for pre-cDC1/cDC1 maintenance. Whereas BM cDC precursors undergo phosphoJNK/c-Jun activation upon Wnt4 treatment, loss of cDC Wnt4 in CD11cCreWnt4flox/flox mice impaired differentiation of CD24+, Clec9A+, CD103+ cDC1 compared to CD11cCre controls. Conversely, sc-RNAseq analysis of BM revealed a 2-fold increase in cDC2 gene signature genes and flow cytometry demonstrated increased numbers of SIRP-α + cDC2 amid lack of Wnt4. Increased cDC2 numbers due to CD11c-restricted Wnt4 deficiency increased interleukin 5 production, group 2 innate lymphoid cell (ILC2) expansion, and host resistance to the hookworm parasite Nippostrongylus brasiliensis. Collectively, these data uncover a novel and unexpected role for Wnt4 in cDC subset differentiation and Type 2 immunity.

Absence of Batf3 reveals a new dimension of phenotypic cell state plasticity within conventional dendritic cells

Project description:Conventional dendritic cells (cDCs) are traditionally subdivided into cDC1 and cDC2 lineages. Batf3 is a cDC1-required transcription factor, and we observed that Batf3-/- mice harbor a population of cDC1-like cells co-expressing cDC2-associated surface molecules. Using single cell RNA sequencing with integrated cell surface protein expression (CITE-seq), we found that Batf3-/- mitotic immature cDC1-like cells showed reduced expression of cDC1 features and increased levels of cDC2 features. In wildtype, we also observed a proportion of mature cDC1 cells expressing surface features characteristic to cDC2, and found that overall cDC cell state heterogeneity was mainly driven by developmental stage, proliferation and maturity. We detected population diversity within Sirpa+ cDC2 cells, including a Cd33+ cell state expressing high levels of Sox4 and lineage-mixed features characteristic to cDC1, cDC2, pDCs and monocytes. In conclusion, these data suggest that multiple cDC cell states can co-express lineage-overlapping features, revealing a level of previously unappreciated cDC plasticity.

Tissue-specific factors differentially regulate the expression of antigen-processing enzymes during dendritic cell ontogeny

Project description:Dendritic cells (DC) form a collection of antigen-presenting cells that are distributed throughout the body. Conventional DC (cDC) which include the cDC1 and cDC2 subsets, and plasmacytoid DC (pDC) constitute the two major ontogenically distinct DC populations. The pDC complete their differentiation in bone-marrow (BM) while the cDC subsets derive from pre-committed bone-marrow (BM) precursors, the pre-cDC, that seed lymphoid and non-lymphoid tissues where they further differentiate into mature cDC1 and cDC2. Within different tissues, cDC express distinct phenotype and function. Notably cDC in the thymus are exquisitely efficient at processing and presenting antigens in the class II pathway, while in the spleen they do so only upon maturation induced by danger signals. To appraise this functional heterogeneity, we examined the regulation of the expression of distinct antigen-processing enzymes during DC ontogeny. We analyzed the expression of cathepsin S (CTSS), cathepsin L (CTSL) and thymus specific serine protease (TSSP), three major antigen-processing enzymes regulating class II presentation in cDC, by DC BM precursors and immature and mature cDC from spleen and thymus. We found that pre-cDC in the BM express relatively high levels of these different proteases. Then, their expression is modulated in a tissue-specific and subset–specific manner with immature and mature thymic cDC expressing overall higher levels than immature splenic cDC. On the other hand, TSSP expression level is selectively down-regulated in spleen pDC while CTSS and CTSL are both increased in thymic and splenic pDC. Hence tissue-specific factors program the expression levels of these different proteases during DC differentiation thus conferring tissue-specific function to the different DC subsets.

ADAM10 shapes myeloid antigen-presenting cell homeostasis in the splenic marginal zone

Project description:The spleen contains phenotypically and functionally distinct cDC1 and cDC2 subpopulations, which each can be divided into several smaller and less-well characterized subsets. Despite advances in understanding the complexity of DC ontogeny and function by transcriptional programming, the significance of post-translational modifications in controlling tissue-specific cDC (subset) immunobiology remains elusive. Here, we identified the cell surface-expressed A-disintegrin-and-metalloproteinase 10 (ADAM10) as an essential regulator of cDC1 and cDC2 homeostasis in the splenic marginal zone (MZ). Mice with a CD11c-specific deletion of ADAM10 (ADAM10ΔCD11c) exhibited a complete loss of splenic ESAMhi cDC2A, because ADAM10 controlled their commitment, differentiation, survival, and EBI2-mediated localization within the MZ. Moreover, we discovered that ADAM10 is a molecular switch regulating cDC2 subset heterogeneity in the spleen, as this unbalanced cDC2A homeostasis in the absence of ADAM10 was compensated for by the emergence of a novel Clec12a+ cDC2B subset, closely resembling cDC2 generally found in peripheral lymph nodes. Moreover, in ADAM10ΔCD11c mice terminal differentiation of cDC1 was abrogated, resulting in reduced numbers of Langerin+ cDC1.

RNA-seq of dendritic cell subsets

Project description:Comparison of cDC1, cDC2, mcDC transcriptome Conventional dendritic cells (cDCs) are classically subdivided in two subsets, named cDC1 and cDC2. We demonstrated that mcDC are a new subset of cDCs. To understand their transcriptomic relatedness, we perform a RNA sequencing on cDC1, cDC2 and mcDCs sorted from mouse spleens. We demonstrate that cDC1, cDC2 and mcDCs all cluster independently in a PCA analysis and an unbiased hierarchical cluster analysis reveals unique gene profile for all three cDC subsets. As mcDC cluster slightly more towards cDC1 than cDC2, we next aimed to more closely examine the transcriptomic relatedness between mcDC and cDC2. We compared the DC subsets gene expression signatures based on a selected gene set known to define cDC2. Both the PCA and hierarchical cluster analysis show that mcDC exhibit a different signature to cDC2. Altogether, we demonstrate that mcDC are a distinct subsets of cDCs with a specific transcriptomic signature.

Irf8 deficiency induces functional, transcriptional and epigenetic reprogramming of cDC1 into the cDC2 lineage

Project description:Conventional dendritic cells (cDC) consist of two functionally and phenotypically distinct subsets, cDC1 and cDC2, whose development is dependent on distinct sets of transcription factors. Interferon regulatory factor 8 (IRF8) is required at multiple stages of cDC1 development, but its role in mature cDC1 remains unclear. Here we used XCR1-cre to delete Irf8 in committed cDC1 and demonstrate that Irf8 is required for maintaining the identify of cDC1 but not their survival. In the absence of Irf8, committed cDC1 (“ex-cDC1”) acquired the transcriptional, functional and chromatin accessibility properties of cDC2. This conversion was independent on Irf4 and was associated with decreased accessibility in putative IRF8, Batf3 and composite AP-1-IRF (AICE) binding elements, together with increased accessibility of cDC2 associated transcription factor binding elements. Thus, IRF8 expression by committed cDC1 is required for preventing their conversion into cDC2.

Systemic Alterations in Type-2 Conventional Dendritic Cells Lead to Impaired Tumor Immunity in Pancreatic Cancer

Project description:Intratumoral T-cell dysfunction is a hallmark of pancreatic tumors, and efforts to improve dendritic cell (DC)-mediated T-cell activation may be critical in treating these immune therapy unresponsive tumors. Recent evidence indicates that mechanisms that induce dysfunction of type 1 conventional DCs (cDC1) in pancreatic adenocarcinomas (PDAC) are drivers of the lack of responsiveness to checkpoint immunotherapy. However, the impact of PDAC on systemic type 2 cDC2 development and function has not been well studied. Herein, we report the analysis of 3 cohorts, totaling 106 samples, of human blood and bone marrow (BM) from patients with PDAC for changes in cDCs. We found that circulating cDC2s and their progenitors were significantly decreased in the blood of patients with PDAC, and repressed numbers of cDC2s were associated with poor prognosis. Serum cytokine analyses identified IL6 as significantly elevated in patients with PDAC and negatively correlated with cDC numbers. In vitro, IL6 impaired the differentiation of cDC1s and cDC2s from BM progenitors. Single-cell RNA sequencing analysis of human cDC progenitors in the BM and blood of patients with PDAC showed an upregulation of the IL6/STAT3 pathway and a corresponding impairment of antigen processing and presentation. These results suggested that cDC2s were systemically suppressed by inflammatory cytokines, which was linked to impaired antitumor immunity.

Single Cell RNA-Seq Analysis Reveals Fate Decision of Human Pre-cDC Determined by Transcription Factor Competition

Project description:Classic dendritic cells (cDCs) play a central role in the immune system and consist of two major subsets: CD141+ cDC (cDC1) and CD1c+ cDC (cDC2). The pre-cDCs is the immediate precursors to both cDC subsets. Previous studies showed that there were two pre-committed pre-cDC subpopulations. However, the key molecular drivers of pre-commitment in human pre-cDCs were not investigated. To address this question, we performed both single cell and bulk RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) of two cDC subsets and pre-cDCs. We inferred a list of sixteen candidate master regulator transcriptional factors (TFs) that can indeed separate pre-cDCs into two sub-populations, with one close to cDC1 and the other close to cDC2. More importantly, these two pre-cDC sub-populations are correlated with ratio of IRF8 to IRF4 expression level more than their individual expression level. Our results suggest the concept that the ratio of antagonistic TFs and their competition determine cDC subset differentiation fate.

A subset of type I conventional dendritic cells control cutaneous bacterial infections through VEGFa-mediated recruitment of neutrophils [single-cell RNA-seq]

Project description:Skin conventional dendritic cells (cDC) exist as two distinct subsets, cDC1 and cDC2, which maintain the balance of immunity to pathogens and tolerance to self and microbiota. Here we examined the roles of dermal cDC1 and cDC2 during bacterial infection, notably Propionibacterium acnes (P. acnes). cDC1, but not cDC2, regulated the magnitude of the immune response to P. acnes in the murine dermis by controlling neutrophil recruitment to the inflamed site and survival and function therein. Single-cell mRNA sequencing revealed that this regulation relied on secretion of the cytokine VEGFα by a minor subset of activated EpCAM+CD59+Ly6D+ cDC1. Neutrophil recruitment by dermal cDC1 was also observed during S. aureus, BCG or E. coli infection, as well as in a model of bacterial insult in human skin. Thus, skin cDC1 are essential regulators of the innate response in cutaneous immunity, with roles beyond classical antigen presentation.
