Transcription factor TCF1 is indispensable for the epigenetic priming of EILPs toward distinct cell fates

ABSTRACT: Differentiation of Innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) from hematopoietic stem cells needs go through several progenitor stages defined by various cell surface markers. The progenitor populations at specific developmental stages may have multiple lineage potentials. However, it is not clear whether the multipotency of the progenitors are induced in situ by differentiation signals or are already predefined by epigenetic states. Here we report the profiling of genome-wide nucleosome position and chromatin accessibility simultaneously in ILC progenitors EILPs and ILCPs by single-cell MNase-Seq. We find that EILPs contain distinct sub-populations epigenetically primed toward either myeloid or ILC lineages, while ILCPs contain cells mainly primed for the ILC lineage at epigenetic level. We further demonstrate that the transcription factor TCF1 is indispensable for the epigenetic priming of lineage-defining sites (LDSs) for both myeloid lineages and ILC lineages at the EILP stage, and deletion of TCF1 results in the epigenetic priming that favors the myeloid lineages. Our results suggest that the multipotency of progenitor cells is defined by the existence of heterogeneous population of cells epigenetically primed for distinct downstream lineages, which are regulated by key transcription factors.

KLRG1 and NKp46 expressing CD117+ human innate lymphoid cell precursors are biased to ILC2 and ILC3, respectively

Project description:Recently, circulating multi- and uni-potent human ILC precursors (ILCP) have been found in a lymphocyte population that expresses CD117 and CD127 but lacks CRTH2 and NKp44. However, these ILCPs have not been extensively characterized. We performed an unbiased Hierarchical Stochastic Neighbor Embedding (HSNE) analysis of the phenotype of peripheral blood CD117+ ILCPs which revealed the presence of three major subsets: the first expressed NKp46, the second expressed both NKp46 and CD56, while the third expressed KLRG1. Analysis of their differentiation potential on bulk and clonal levels, cytokine production and the transcriptome revealed that the NKp46+ ILCPs contain high frequencies of ILC3 precursors whereas a minority can differentiate into ILC1/NK-like cells. In contrast, KLRG1+ ILCPs are biased to the ILC2 lineage, but are highly plastic and epigenetically primed to differentiate into other ILC subsets depending on the activation signals they receive.

Multi-transcription factor reporter mice delineate early precursors to the LTi and ILC lineages

Project description:Transcription factor (TF) reporter mice have proved integral to the characterization of murine innate lymphoid cell (ILC) development and function. Here, we implemented a CRISPR/Cas9-generated combinatorial reporter approach for the simultaneous resolution of several key TFs throughout ILC development in both the fetal liver and adult bone marrow. We demonstrate that the Tcf7-expressing early innate lymphoid progenitor (EILP) and the common helper innate lymphoid progenitor (CHILP) both contain a heterogeneous mixture of committed ILC and Lymphoid Tissue-inducer (LTi) precursors, rather than a shared precursor to these lineages. Moreover, the earliest specified precursor to the LTi lineage was identified upstream of these populations, prior to the expression of Tcf7. These findings match dynamic changes in chromatin accessibility associated with the expression of key TFs (ie. Gata3 and Rorc), highlighting the distinct origins of ILC and LTi lineages at the epigenetic and functional levels, and provide a revised map for ILC development.

Chromatin Accessibility Maps Provide Evidence of Multilineage Gene Priming in Hematopoietic Stem Cells

Project description:Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) have the capacity to differentiate into vastly different types of mature blood cells. The epigenetic mechanisms regulating the multilineage ability, or multipotency of HSCs are not well understood. To test the hypothesis that cis regulatory elements that control fate decisions for all lineages are primed in HSCs, we used ATAC-seq to compare chromatin accessibility of HSCs with five unipotent cell types. We observed the highest similarity in accessibility profiles between Megakaryocyte Progenitors and HSCs, whereas B cells had the greatest number of regions with de novo gain in accessibility during differentiation. Despite these differences, we identified cis regulatory elements from all lineages that displayed epigenetic priming in HSCs. These findings provide new insights into the regulation of stem cell multipotency, as well as a resource to identify functional drivers of lineage fate.

Human Innate Lymphoid Cell Precursors Express CD48 that Modulates ILC Differentiation through 2B4 Signaling

Project description:Innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) develop from common lymphoid progenitors (CLP), which further differentiate into the common ILC progenitor (CILP) that can give rise to both ILCs and NK cells. Murine ILC intermediates have recently been characterized, but the human counterparts and their developmental trajectories have not yet been identified, largely due to the lack of homologous surface receptors in both organisms. Here, we show that human CILPs (CD34+CD117+α4β7+Lin-) acquire CD48 and CD52, which define NK progenitors (NKPs) and innate lymphoid cell precursors (ILCPs). Two distinct NK cell subsets were generated in vitro from CD34+CD117+α4β7+Lin-CD48-CD52+ and CD34+CD117+α4β7+Lin-CD48+CD52+ NKPs, respectively. Independent of NKPs, ILCPs exist in the CD34+CD117+α4β7+Lin-CD48+CD52+ subset and give rise to ILC1s, ILC2s and NCR+ ILC3s, whereas CD34+CD117+α4β7+Lin-CD48+CD52- ILCPs give rise to a distinct subset of ILC3s that have lymphoid tissue inducer (LTi)-like properties. Additionally, CD48 expressing CD34+CD117+α4β7+Lin- precursors give rise to tissue-associated ILCs in vivo. We also observed that the interaction of 2B4 with CD48 induced differentiation of ILC2s, and together these findings show that expression of CD48 by human ILCPs modulates ILC differentiation.

Effect of loss of Regnase-1 and Regnase-3 on the transcriptional profile in mouse Lin–Sca1+Kit+ (LSK) cells

Project description:Regulation of lineage biases in hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) is pivotal for balanced hematopoietic output. However, little is known about the mechanism behind lineage choice in HSPCs. Here, we show that mRNA decay factors Regnase-1 (Zc3h12a) and Regnase-3 (Zc3h12c) are critical for induction of myeloid lineage priming, restricting lymphoid differentiation in HSPCs. Regnase-1- and Regnase-3-mediated control of mRNA encoding Nfkbiz, a transcriptional and epigenetic regulator, was essential for balancing lymphoid/myeloid lineage output in HSPCs in vivo. Furthermore, single cell-assay for transposase-accessible chromatin sequencing (scATAC-seq) analysis revealed that Regnase-1 and Regnase-3 control the epigenetic landscape on myeloid-related gene loci in hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) via Nfkbiz. Consistently, an antisense oligonucleotide designed to inhibit Regnase-1- and Regnase-3-mediated Nfkbiz mRNA degradation primed HSCs toward myeloid lineages by enhancing Nfkbiz expression. Collectively, the collaboration between post-transcriptional control and chromatin remodeling by the Regnase-1/Regnase-3-Nfkbiz axis governs lineage priming, instructing HSC lineage specification.

The basic leucine zipper transcription factor NFIL3 directs the development of a common innate lymphoid cell precursor

Project description:Innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) are recently identified lymphocytes that limit infection and promote tissue repair at mucosal surfaces. However, the pathways underlying ILC development remain unclear. Here we show that the transcription factor NFIL3 directs the development of a committed bone marrow precursor that differentiates into all known ILC lineages. NFIL3 was required in the common lymphoid progenitor (CLP), and was essential for the differentiation of CLP, a bone marrow cell population that gives rise to all known ILC lineages. Clonal differentiation studies revealed that CXCR6+ cells within the CLP population differentiate into all ILC lineages but not T- and B-cells. We further show that NFIL3 governs ILC development by directly regulating expression of the transcription factor TOX. These findings establish that NFIL3 directs the differentiation of a committed ILC precursor that gives rise to all ILC lineages and provide insight into the defining role of NFIL3 in ILC development. This experiment is to compare gene expression profiles between wild-type and Nfil3-/- common lymphoid progenitor (CLP) cells to identify genes regulated by NFIL3. There are 6 samples in this experiment, including 3 biological replicates for wild-type CLPs and 3 biological replicates for Nfil3-/- CLPs. All mice used are on the C57BL/6 background.

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.
