Ornithine decarboxylase supports ILC3 responses in infectious and autoimmune colitis through positive regulation of IL-22 transcription

ABSTRACT: Group 3 innate lymphoid cells (ILC3s) are RORγT+ lymphocytes that are predominately enriched in mucosal tissues and produce IL-22 and IL-17A. They are the innate counterparts of Th17. While Th17 lymphocytes utilize unique metabolic pathways in their differentiation program, it is unknown whether ILC3s make similar metabolic adaptations. We employed single-cell RNA sequencing and metabolomic profiling of intestinal ILC subsets to identify an enrichment of polyamine biosynthesis in ILC3s, converging on the rate-limiting enzyme ornithine decarboxylase (ODC1). In vitro and in vivo studies demonstrated that exogenous supplementation with the polyamine putrescine or its biosynthetic substrate, ornithine, enhanced ILC3 production of IL-22. Conditional deletion of ODC1 in ILC3s impaired mouse antibacterial defense against C. rodentium infection, which was associated with a decrease in anti-microbial peptide production by the intestinal epithelium. Furthermore, in a model of anti-CD40 colitis, deficiency of ODC1 in ILC3s markedly reduced the production of IL-22 and severity of inflammatory colitis. We conclude that cell-intrinsic polyamine biosynthesis facilitates efficient defense against enteric pathogens as well as augments autoimmune colitis, thus representing an attractive target to modulate ILC3 function in intestinal disease.

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.

Group 3 innate lymphoid cell pyroptosis represents a host defense mechanism against Salmonella infection

Project description:Group 3 innate lymphoid cells (ILC3s) produce interleukin (IL)-22 and, together with other cells in the gut, orchestrate to mount productive host immunity against bacterial infection. However, the role of ILC3s in Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium (S. Typhimurium) infection, which causes foodborne enteritis in humans, remains elusive. Here, we show that S. Typhimurium exploit ILC3-produced IL-22 to promote its infection. Specifically, S. Typhimurium secrete flagellin through activation of the TLR5-Myd88-IL-23 signaling pathway in antigen presenting cells (APCs) to selectively enhance IL-22 production by ILC3s, but not T cells. Deletion of ILC3s but not T cells in mice led to better control of S. Typhimurium infection. We also show that S. Typhimurium can invade ILC3s directly and cause caspase-1-mediated ILC3 pyroptosis independently of flagellin. Genetic ablation of Casp1 in mice leads to increased ILC3 survival and IL-22 production, and enhanced S. Typhimurium infection. Collectively, our data suggest a key host defense mechanism against S. Typhimurium infection via induction of ILC3 death to limit intracellular bacteria and reduce IL-22 production.

Metabolite - sensing receptor Ffar2 regulates colonic group 3 innate lymphoid cells and gut immunity

Project description:Group 3 innate lymphoid cells (ILC3s) sense environmental signals that are critical for gut homeostasis and host defense. However, the metabolite-sensing G-protein-coupled receptors that regulate colonic ILC3s remain poorly understood. We found that colonic ILC3s expressed Ffar2, a microbial metabolite-sensing receptor, and that Ffar2 agonism promoted ILC3 expansion and function. Deletion of Ffar2 in ILC3s decreased their in situ proliferation and ILC3-derived IL-22 production. This led to impaired gut epithelial function characterized by altered mucus-associated proteins and antimicrobial peptides and increased susceptibility to colonic injury and bacterial infection. Ffar2 increased IL-22+ CCR6+ ILC3s and influenced ILC3 abundance in colonic lymphoid tissues. Ffar2 agonism differentially activated AKT or ERK signaling and increased ILC3-derived IL-22 via an AKT and STAT3 axis. Our findings demonstrate that Ffar2 regulates colonic ILC3 proliferation and function in a cell-intrinsic manner and identifies an ILC3-receptor signaling pathway regulating gut inflammatory tone and pathogen defense.

Ornithine aminotransferase supports polyamine synthesis in pancreatic cancer

Project description:Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDA) cells have a distinct dependence on de novo ornithine synthesis from glutamine via ornithine aminotransferase (OAT), which supports polyamine synthesis and is required for tumor growth. This directional OAT activity is normally largely restricted to infancy and contrasts with the reliance of most adult normal tissues and other cancer types on arginase (ARG) to generate arginine-derived ornithine, the substrate for polyamine synthesis. This dependence associates with arginine depletion in PDA tumor microenvironment, and is driven by mutant KRAS, which induces the expression of OAT and polyamine synthesis enzymes, including the rate-limiting enzyme ornithine decarboxylase-1 (ODC1). Loss of OAT, but not ARG2, largely mimics loss of ODC1, altering the transcriptional profiles in PDA cells, which in turn correlate with alterations in open chromatin states.

TL1A is a central regulator of group 3 innate lymphoid cell function in colitis

Project description:Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) results from a dysregulated interaction between the microbiota and a genetically susceptible host. Genetic studies have linked TNFSF15 polymorphisms and its protein TNF-like ligand 1A (TL1A) with IBD, but the functional role of TL1A in linking tissue homeostasis and intestinal inflammation is not known. Here, using cell-specific genetic deletion models, we report an essential role for CX3CR1+ mononuclear phagocyte (MNP)-derived TL1A, which is induced by adherent IBD-associated microbiota, in regulating group 3 innate lymphoid cell (ILC3) production of IL-22 and mucosal healing in acute colitis. However, in contrast to this protective role in acute colitis, TL1A-dependent expression of OX40L in MHCII+ ILC3 during colitis leads to co-stimulation of antigen-specific T cells and is required for chronic T cell colitis. These results identify a new role for ILC3 in regulating intestinal T cells and reveal a central role for TL1A in regulating ILC3 barrier immunity during colitis.

Trained ILC3 Responses Promote Intestinal Defense

Project description:Group 3 innate lymphoid cells (ILC3) are innate immune effectors that contribute to host defense. Whether ILC3 functions are stably modified following pathogen encounter is unknown. Here we assess the impact of a time-restricted enterobacterial challenge to long-term ILC3 activation. We found that intestinal ILC3 persist for months in an activated state following exposure to Citrobacter rodentium. Upon rechallenge, these “trained” ILC3 proliferate, display enhanced interleukin (IL)-22 responses, and have a superior cell-intrinsic capacity to control infection compared to naïve ILC3. Metabolic changes occur in C. rodentium-exposed ILC3 but only trained ILC3 have enhanced proliferative capacity that contributes to elevated IL-22 production. Accordingly, a limited encounter with a pathogen can promote durable phenotypic and functional changes in intestinal ILC3 that contribute to long-term mucosal defense.
