RNA-seq of control and IL-33-treated WT and STAT KO ILC2s in vitro

ABSTRACT: Group 2 innate lymphoid cell (ILC2), an innate counterpart of T helper 2 cell, plays a critical role in type 2 immune responses. However, the molecular regulation mechanism of ILC2 is still unclear. Here, we find that STAT3 signaling is essential for ILC2 effector function and could drive both acute and chronic allergic inflammation in the lung. Mechanistically, allergic alarmin IL-33 induces a non-canonical STAT3 phosphorylation at serine 727 in ILC2, which leads to its mitochondrial translocation. Mitochondrial STAT3 further promotes the methionine cycle through ATP synthesis and fuel the generation of S-adenosylmethionine (SAM), which supports the epigenetic reprogramming of type 2 cytokines in ILC2. STAT3 deficiency dampens the mitochondrial function and methionine metabolism, thus results in impairment of the ILC2 cytokines expression. Interestingly, inhibition the mitochondrial translocation of STAT3 could remarkably ameliorate the allergic lung inflammation. Together, our findings establish mitochondrial STAT3 as a key regulator shaping ILC2 effector function through metabolic and epigenetic regulation

Core Binding Factor β Is Required For Group-2 Innate Lymphoid Cell Activation

Project description:Group-2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2) are tissue-resident, long-lived innate effector cells implicated in allergy and asthma. Upon activation, mature ILC2 rapidly secret large amounts of type-2 cytokines and other effector molecules. The molecular pathways that drive ILC2 activation are not well understood. Here we report that the transcriptional controller Core-binding factor β (CBFβ) is required for ILC2 activation. Deletion or inhibition of CBFβ did not impair the maintenance of ILC2 at homeostasis, but abolished ILC2 activation during allergic airway inflammation. Treatment with CBFβ inhibitors prevented ILC2-mediated airway hyperresponsiveness in a mouse model of acute Alternaria allergen inhalation. CBFβ promoted expression of key ILC2 genes at both transcriptional and translational levels. CBF transcriptional complex directly bound to Il13 and Vegfa promoters and enhancers, and controlled gene transcription. CBFβ further promoted ribosome biogenesis and enhanced gene translation in activated ILC2. Together, these data establish an essential role for CBFβ in ILC2 activation.

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.

Runx/Cbfβ complexes protect ILC2s from exhaustion during allergic airway inflammation

Project description:Group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) have tissue-resident competence and contribute to the pathogenesis of allergic diseases. Therefore, there should be mechanisms to maintain the capacity of ILC2s to produce TH2 cytokines under chronic inflammatory conditions. Here, we report that Runx proteins are essential to prevent exaggerated activation of ILC2, in part by antagonizing GATA-3 function at steady state. However, during allergic inflammation, the absence of Runx in ILC2s impaired their ability to proliferate and produce effector TH2 cytokines and chemokines, but instead induced expression of T cell exhaustion markers including IL-10 and TIGIT. These exhausted ILC2s were unabale to induce type 2 immune responses against repeated allergen inhalation. Thus, Runx proteins protect ILC2s from exhaustion during continuous allergic inflammation.

Expression data from WT and KO of Myc in innate lymphoid cell 2 (ILC2) in mice

Project description:Group-2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2) serve crucial function in allergy and asthma. Activated ILC2 rapidly proliferate and secret large amounts of type-2 cytokines, such as IL-5 and IL-13. Mechanisms underlying still remain ambiguous. Here we report that Myc is required for ILC2 proliferation and activation in allergic airway inflammation. Inhibition of Myc impair the ILC2 proliferation in vivo and prevented ILC2-mediated airway hyperresponsiveness in vivo. We used microarrays to detail the global programme of different gene expression between WT and Myc KO in ILC2.

Specification of innate type-2 lymphocytes by the transcriptional determinant Gfi1

Project description:Innate type-2 lymphoid cells (ILC2s) function in immune responses against helminth parasites and are implicated in allergic inflammation and asthma. ILC2s are activated by the epithelial-derived cytokines IL-33 and IL-25 and are major sources of the type-2 cytokines IL-5 and IL-13. We show that the transcription factor Gfi1 promotes the generation of ILC2s and controls their responsiveness during Nippostrongylus brasiliensis infection as well as IL-33- or IL-25-instigated inflammation. Gfi1 directly activates Il1rl1, which encodes the IL-33 receptor. IL- 33 signaling upregulates Gfi1, thereby constituting a positive feedback loop that enables rapid and robust expansion of ILC2s in response to IL-33 signaling. Loss of Gfi1 in activated ILC2s results in an unusual effector state involving derepression of the IL-17 inflammatory program and co-expression of IL-13 with IL-17. ChIPseq reveals key Gfi1 targeted genes that are activated or repressed to maintain ILC2 identity. We propose that Gfi1 functions as a shared determinant within innate and adaptive immune cells to specify type-2 responses, while actively repressing the IL-17 effector state. ILC2s (~3 x 10^7 cells) were sorted from the MLN of IL-25-treated mice. Chromatin fragments bound by Gfi1 were subject to ChIP using Gfi1 antibodies and followed by high-throughput sequencing.

Next Generation Sequencing Facilitates Quantitative Analysis of the effects of PD-1 deficiency on sorted mouse pulmonary ILC2 Transcriptomes

Project description:Allergic asthma is a leading chronic disease associated with airway hyperreactivity (AHR). Type-2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) are a potent source of T-helper 2 cytokines that promote AHR and lung inflammation. In this study, we evaluated the protective role of PD-1 on the development of AHR by focusing on its capacity to regulate ILC2 activation. We find that PD-1 is highly inducible in pulmonary ILC2s and shapes their transcriptional activity, activation and metabolism. Our findings provide new insights regarding the mechanisms of ILC2 regulation, which could be used in innovative approaches for the treatment of allergic asthma.

BET bromodomain inhibitor iBET151 impedes human ILC2 activation and prevents experimental allergic lung inflammation

Project description:Group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2) increase in frequency in eczema and allergic asthma patients, and thus represent a new therapeutic target cell for type-2 immune-mediated disease. The bromodomain and extra-terminal (BET) protein family of epigenetic regulators are known to support the expression of cell cycle and pro-inflammatory genes during type-1 inflammation, but have not been evaluated in type-2 immune responses. We isolated human ILC2 and examined the capacity of the BET protein inhibitor, iBET151, to modulate human ILC2 activation following IL-33 stimulation. iBET151 profoundly blocked expression of genes critical for type-2 immunity, including type-2 cytokines, cell surface receptors and transcriptional regulators of ILC2 differentiation and activation. Furthermore, in vivo administration of iBET151 during experimental mouse models of allergic lung inflammation potently inhibited lung inflammation and airways resistance in response to cytokine or allergen exposure. Thus, iBET151 effectively prevents human ILC2 activation and dampens type-2 immune responses.

Gene expression analysis of CD4+ and CD4- ILC1 subsets by RNAseq

Project description:Innate lymphoid cell (ILC) subsets that mirror helper T cells in their effector cytokine profiles have recently emerged as central players in both homeostatic and inflammatory conditions. Like their Th1, Th2 and Th17/Th22 helper T cell counterparts, ILC subsets are categorized based on their expression of specific transcription factors and effector cytokines: group 1 ILC (ILC1) express T-bet and IFN-Î³; group 2 ILC (ILC2) express GATA-3 and type 2 effector cytokines such as IL-13 and IL-5; and group 3 ILC (ILC3) express RORgt and the cytokines IL-22 and/or IL-17. Under this nomenclature, natural killer (NK) cells and lymphoid tissue inducers (LTi) are considered ILC1 and ILC3, respectively. ILC1 contain both CD4+ and CD4- populations, but whether this phenotypic characteristic reflects functional differences between these two populations is unknown. These studies examine the gene expression profiles of CD4+ vs CD4- ILC1 in a cohort of healthy control subjects. ILC subsets were isolated from the peripheral blood of healthy control subjects. cDNA was isolated and amplified from sorted populations, and gene expression was analyzed by RNAseq

Expression data from naive, effector and memory-like ILC2s isolated from mouse lungs and those from effector and memory-like ILC2s isolated from mediastinal lymph node

Project description:Group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) in the lung are stimulated by inhaled allergens. ILC2s do not directly recognize allergens but they are stimulated by cytokines including interleukin (IL)-33 released by damaged epithelium.Lung ILC2s, upon stimulation, produce T helper 2 cell-type cytokines inducing T cell independent allergic lung inflammation. We now report that lung ILC2s, upon activation by an allergen or IL-33, acquire the properties of memory cells. The activated ILC2s initially proliferate and secrete cytokines, followed by a contraction phase as they stop producing cytokines. Nevertheless, some persist long after the resolution of the inflammation and acquire intrinsic capacities to react to unrelated allergens more vigorously than naÃ¯ve ILC2s, thus mediating a severe allergic lung inflammation. Gene expression profiles of the previously activated ILC2s show a gene signature of memory T cells. These antigen non-specific memory ILC2s may explain why asthma patients are often sensitized to multiple allergens. ILC2s were isolated from mouse lungs from naive and IL-33 injected mice 4 days, 14 days and 4 months after the initial treatment. RNA was extracted from those ILC2 populations and analyzed for gene expression profiles. RNA was also extracted from ILC2s isolated from lung draining mediastinal lymph node (mLN) 4 days and 14 days after IL-33 treatment.

Dichotomous metabolic networks govern human ILC2 proliferation and function

Project description:Group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2) represent innate homologues of Th2 cells that participate in immune defense and tissue homeostasis through production of type 2 cytokines. While T lymphocytes metabolically adapt to microenvironmental changes, knowledge of human ILC2 metabolism is limited and its key regulators are unknown. Here we show that circulating “naïve” ILC2 have an unexpected metabolic profile with a higher level of oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) than NK cells. Accordingly, ILC2 are severely reduced in patients with mitochondrial disease and impaired OXPHOS. Metabolomic and nutrient receptors analysis reveals ILC2 uptake amino acids to sustain OXPHOS at steady-state. Upon activation with interleukin 33 (IL-33), ILC2 become highly proliferative relying on glycolysis and mTOR to produce IL-13, while continuing to fuel OXPHOS with amino acids to maintain cellular fitness and proliferation. Our results suggest that proliferation and function are metabolically uncoupled in human ILC2, offering new strategies to target ILC2 in disease settings.
