TRNA m1A modification is essential for gut homeostasis and function of group 3 innate lymphoid cells

ABSTRACT: Group 3 innate lymphoid cells (ILC3s) play crucial roles in maintaining intestinal homeostasis and defending against bacterial infections. However, the epigenetic mechanisms that regulate ILC3 responses are not well understood. In this study, we show that Trmt61a, the methyltransferase responsible for the m1A58 tRNA modification, is predominantly expressed in ILC3s. We found that specific depletion of TRMT61A in ILC3s leads to dysregulated cell cycle and a reduction in cell numbers. Notably, mice with an ILC3-specific TRMT61A deficiency exhibit dysbiosis, but antibiotic treatment can restore colonic ILC3 levels. Furthermore, these mice exhibit increased susceptibility to experimental intestinal inflammation and enteric bacterial infection. Our findings uncover a previously unrecognized role for TRMT61A mediated m1A modification in the regulation of intestinal ILC3s, essential for protecting intestinal tissue during inflammation and enhancing innate immunity against enteric pathogens.

NKp46+ ILC3s promote early neutrophil defense against C. difficile infection through GM-CSF secretion

Project description:Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI) is a common cause of antibiotic-associated colitis. C. difficile proliferates and produces toxins that damage the colonic epithelium, leading to symptoms ranging from mild diarrhea to severe pseudomembranous colitis. The host's innate response to CDI occurs in two phases: an early phase in which neutrophils reduce the bacterial load, and a late phase involving repair mechanisms to restore epithelial integrity. Group 3 innate lymphoid cells (ILC3s) are crucial in protecting the gut from CDI. Previous studies have shown that ILC3 production of IL-22 is essential in the late phase of CDI for epithelial repair and maintaining an intestinal microbiota that competes with C. difficile, preventing its expansion. Our study finds that ILC3s also protect during the early stages of CDI by sustaining neutrophils through GM-CSF. Less neutrophil production, accumulation and activation was evident in ILC3-deficient mice than in wild-type (WT) mice, which led to exacerbated symptoms, impaired pathogen clearance, a compromised epithelial barrier, and increased mortality. The adoptive transfer of ILC3s into ILC3-deficient mice restored neutrophil responses and improved disease outcomes. Both in vitro and in vivo experiments revealed that GM-CSF production by ILC3s is crucial for neutrophil production and effective resistance during CDI. Using mice lacking NKp46+ ILC3s, we found that this subset significantly contributes to GM-CSF production in CDI. These findings highlight the critical role of the ILC3-neutrophil connection in early innate responses to CDI. Enhancing ILC3 production of GM-CSF could be a promising strategy for improving host defense against CDI and other enteric infections.

Group 3 innate lymphoid cells amplify YAP1-driven small intestinal repair

Project description:Ror gamma t-deficient mice lack group 3 Innate Lymphoid Cells (ILC3s) and as a result have increased tissue damage and diminished tissue repair in response to insult. To identify repair programs associated with ILC3 presence the transcriptomes of small intestinal stem cells exposed to damage in the presence or absence of ILC3 were compared. Small intestinal damage was induced in Ror gamma t-deficient Lgr5 reporter mice and littermate controls. Small intestinal epithelial stem cells were purified at days 1 and 4 after damage and subjected to RNA sequencing.

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

Project description: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.

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.

Dysregulation of ILC3s unleashes progression and immunotherapy resistance in colon cancer

Project description:Group 3 innate lymphoid cells (ILC3s) are critical regulators of intestinal homeostasis, yet their role in cancer remains elusive. Here, we identify that the tumor microenvironment of humans and mice with colorectal cancer (CRC) contains altered ILC3 responses that resemble those found during intestinal inflammation and are characterized by reduced frequencies, altered subset distribution, and an imbalance with T cells. We evaluated the consequences of these changes in mice and determined that ILC3-specific major histocompatibility complex class II (MHCII) was required to limit the progression of CRC. Interestingly, ILC3-specific MHCII also prevented resistance to anti-PD-1 immunotherapy by regulating intestinal inflammation and microbiota composition. Finally, humans with intestinal inflammation and dysregulated ILC3s also harbor specific microbiota that are sufficient to promote immunotherapy resistance in mice. Collectively, these data define a protective role for antigen-presenting ILC3s in cancer, and indicate that inherent disruption of this pathway drives CRC progression and immunotherapy resistance.

LKB1 regulates ILC3 postnatal development and effector function through metabolic programming

Project description:Group 3 Innate Lymphoid Cells (ILC3s) is important for maintaining intestinal homeostasis and host defense. Emerging studies have shown that metabolic regulation plays a crucial role in regulating ILC3 activation and function. However, the role of Liver Kinase B1 (LKB1), key metabolic regulator, in regulating ILC3 function and intestinal immunity remains poorly understood. In this study, we show that LKB1 is essential for ILC3 postnatal development, effector function, and intestinal immunity. Ablation of LKB1 in ILC3s results in reduced cell number due to increased apoptosis and reduced proliferation, which occurs at 2 -3 weeks after birth. In addition, LKB1 deletion leads to diminished IL-22 production and less protection against C.rodentium infection. Mechanistically, LKB1 deficiency led to impaired mitochondrial metabolism, as indicated by reduced glycolysis and oxidative phosphorylation and less mitochondrial mass. Together, our data demonstrate that LKB1 promotes ILC3 postnatal development and effector function to maintain intestinal immune homeostasis.

Light-entrained and brain-tuned circadian circuits regulate ILC3 and gut homeostasis

Project description:Group 3 innate lymphoid cells (ILC3) are major regulators of inflammation, infection, microbiota composition and metabolism. ILC3 and neuronal cells were shown to interact at discrete mucosal locations to steer mucosal defence. Nevertheless, whether neuroimmune circuits operate at an organismal level, integrating extrinsic environmental signals to orchestrate ILC3 responses remains elusive. Here we show that light-entrained and brain-tuned circadian circuits regulate enteric ILC3, intestinal homeostasis and the host lipid metabolism. We found that enteric ILC3 display circadian expression of clock genes and ILC3-related transcription factors. ILC3-autonomous ablation of the circadian regulator Arntl led to disrupted gut ILC3 homeostasis, impaired epithelial reactivity, deregulated microbiome, increased susceptibility to bowel infection and disrupted lipid metabolism. Loss of ILC3-intrinsic Arntl shaped the gut postcode receptors of ILC3. Strikingly, light-dark cycles, feeding rhythms and microbial cues differentially regulated ILC3 clocks, with light signals as major entraining cues of ILC3. Accordingly, surgical- and genetically-induced deregulation of brain rhythmicity led to disrupted circadian ILC3 oscillations, deregulated microbiome and altered lipid metabolism. Our work reveals a circadian circuitry that translates environmental light cues into enteric ILC3, shaping intestinal health and organismal homeostasis.

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.

RNA-Seq from human ILC transitional populations

Project description:Innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) are tissue-resident lymphocytes subdivided into ILC1s, ILC2s and ILC3s based on core regulatory programs and signature cytokines secreted. ILCs exhibit functional plasticity: for instance, human IL-22-producing ILC3s convert into IFN-γ-producing ILC1-like in vitro. Whether this conversion occurs in vivo is unclear. Using flow cytometry, mass cytometry and scRNAseq, here we found that ILC3s and ILC1s occupy opposite ends of a spectrum including discrete subsets in human tonsils. RNA velocity suggested strong directionality toward ILC1s for one ILC3-ILC1 intermediate cluster. Clonal analysis revealed graded ability of ILC3-ILC1 subsets to convert into ILC1-like cells. When examined in humanized mice, ILC3 acquisition of ILC1 features showed tissue-dependency. In chromatin studies, Aiolos emerged as a nuclear factor that cooperates with Tbet to repress evolutionarily conserved regulatory elements active in ILC3s. The human intestine also exhibited an ILC3–ILC1 transitional population. We conclude that conversion of ILC3s to ILC1-like occurs in vivo in human tissues, and that tissue factors and Aiolos are crucial for this process.
