The transcription factor NFIL3 is necessary and sufficient to specify the ILC fate in lymphoid progenitors [scRNA-seq]

ABSTRACT: Helper innate lymphoid cells (ILC) play important functions in immunity and tissue homeostasis, but their development remains poorly understood. In this study, we identified NFIL3 as the earliest known requirement during ILC development. Forced expression of NFIL3 in mouse lymphoid progenitors in vitro triggered the staged expression of downstream transcription factors including Tcf7, Gata3, Zbtb16 and Id2 that are implicated in ILC development. Thus, NFIL3 resides at the apex of a hierarchy of transcription factors important for innate lymphocyte development, and is necessary and sufficient to impose the innate lymphoid cell fate.

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.

Innate lymphoid cell development requires TOX-dependent generation of a common ILC progenitor

Project description:Subtypes of innate lymphoid cells (ILC), defined by effector function and transcription factor expression, have recently been identified. In the adult, ILC derive from common lymphoid progenitors in bone marrow, although transcriptional regulation of the developmental pathways involved remains poorly defined. TOX is required for development of lymphoid tissue inducer cells, a type of ILC3 required for lymph node organogenesis, and NK cells, a type of ILC1. We show here that production of multiple ILC lineages requires TOX, as a result of TOX-dependent development of common ILC progenitors. Comparative transcriptome analysis demonstrated failure to induce various aspects of the ILC gene program in the absence of TOX, implicating this nuclear factor as a key early determinant of ILC lineage specification.

Systemic human ILC precursors provide a substrate for tissue ILC differentiation

Project description:Innate lymphoid cells (ILC) represent innate versions of T helper and cytotoxic T cells that differentiate from committed ILC precursors (ILCP). Still, how ILCP relate to mature tissue-resident ILCs remains unclear. We observed that a population of CD117+ ILC from peripheral blood (PB) of healthy donors does not represent any conical ILC subset, but expressed marker (CD117) commonly expressed by hemato-lymphoid progenitors. We therefore hypothesized PB CD117+ ILC might include uncommitted lymphoid precursors. In order to further understand the identity of PB CD117+ ILC, we profiled the transcriptome of highly purified circulating CD117+ ILC compared to CD34+ HSC, the latter representing immature hematopoietic progenitors with multi-lineage potential. Clear differences in gene expression profiles emerged, with a large cluster of 1540 genes expressed at substantially higher levels in CD117+ ILC. In contrast, CD34+ HSC cells highly expressed genes involved in the broad development of diverse hematopoietic lineages. Compared to HSC, CD117+ ILC express high levels of TF that have been shown to be essential for murine ILC development and we did not detect transcripts characteristic of T and B cells development. Transcriptomic analysis suggested that CD117+ ILC represent lymphoid-biased progenitors carrying a TF expression profile resembling a multi-potent ILC precursor (ILCP).

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.
