Interleukin-23 promotes a pro-inflammatory Th17 cell state by stabilizing RORγt and suppressing glucocorticoid receptor activity I

ABSTRACT: Interleukin-23 receptor (IL-23R) signaling is critical for the generation of pro-inflammatory CD4+ IL-17-producing T cells (Th17) that can drive autoimmune tissue inflammation, but the underlying mechanisms are not clear. We integrated phosphoproteomic and transcriptomic data downstream of IL-23R and IL-12R, which share a common subunit, to identify mechanisms engaged specifically by IL-23. We identified chromodomain helicase DNA-binding protein 1 (CHD1), an epigenetic regulator, and the glucocorticoid receptor (GR), a transcription factor (TF), as mediators of IL-23R signaling. IL-23R activation promoted CHD1 interaction with TF STAT3 and co-binding at the TF RORγt locus to enforce a pro-inflammatory Th17 state. Conversely, IL-23R signaling altered phosphorylation of the GR, thereby preventing its activation and nuclear translocation, ultimately impairing GR-driven inhibition of pro-inflammatory Th17 gene programs. Our findings uncover two mechanisms by which IL-23 promotes a pro-inflammatory Th17 cell state, offering potential therapeutic targets for treating Th17-driven autoimmune tissue inflammation and restoring homeostasis.

Induction of pathogenic Th17 cells by salt inducible kinase SGK-1 (NaCl)

Project description:Th17 cells are highly proinflammatory cells that are critical for clearing extracellular pathogens like fungal infections and for induction of multiple autoimmune diseases1. IL-23 plays a critical role in stabilizing and endowing Th17 cells with pathogenic effector functions2. Previous studies have shown that IL-23 signaling reinforces the Th17 phenotype by increasing expression of IL-23 receptor (IL-23R)3. However, the precise molecular mechanism by which IL-23 sustains the Th17 response and induces pathogenic effector functions has not been elucidated. Here, we used unbiased transcriptional profiling of developing Th17 cells to construct a model of their signaling network and identify major nodes that regulate Th17 development. We identified serum glucocorticoid kinase-1 (SGK1), as an essential node downstream of IL-23 signaling, critical for regulating IL-23R expression and for stabilizing the Th17 cell phenotype by deactivation of Foxo1, a direct repressor of IL-23R expression. A serine-threonine kinase homologous to AKT4, SGK1 has been associated with cell cycle and apoptosis, and has been shown to govern Na+ transport and homeostasis5, 6 7, 8. We here show that a modest increase in salt (NaCl) concentration induces SGK1 expression, promotes IL-23R expression and enhances Th17 cell differentiation in vitro and in vivo, ultimately accelerating the development of autoimmunity. The loss of SGK1 resulted in abrogation of Na+-mediated Th17 differentiation in an IL-23-dependent manner. These data indicate that SGK1 is a critical regulator for the induction of pathogenic Th17 cells and provides a molecular insight by which an environmental factor such as a high salt diet could trigger Th17 development and promote tissue inflammation.

A cell-intrinsic glucocorticoid biosynthesis and sensing circuit maintains homeostatic Th17 cell state

Project description:T helper 17 (Th17) cells are heterogeneous; homeostatic Th17 (Th17Hom) cells maintain tissue homeostasis and pro-inflammatory Th17 (Th17Inf) cells drive autoimmune inflammation. IL-23 drives Th17Inf, but the signals that maintain Th17Hom remain unclear. Here, we found that differential glucocorticoid (GC) production downstream of CYP11A1, a critical enzyme for steroidogenesis, distinguished Th17Hom cells from Th17Inf cells. Although TCR signaling opened the Cyp11a1 locus, TGFβ1 and IL-6, key cytokines for Th17Hom cell differentiation, maintained and amplified Cyp11a1. Th17Hom cell-derived GC signaled through the glucocorticoid receptor (GR), which was higher in Th17Hom cells compared to Th17Inf cells, thereby forming a circuit that maintained the homeostatic state. Integration of multi-omics data from CYP11A1- and GR-deficient Th17Hom cells revealed a gene network underlying this circuit. TGFβ1, a key node in the network, restored GC sensing to Th17Inf. We thus identify a GC signaling circuit that maintains Th17 homeostasis with implications for treating Th17-mediated autoimmunity.

MicroRNA-155 confers encephalogenic potential to Th17 cells by promoting IL-23 responsiveness and effector gene expression

Project description:We examined the role of miR-155 in differentiated Th17 cells during their induction of Experimental Autoimmune Encephalomyelitis (EAE). Using adoptive transfer experiments, we found that highly purified, MOG antigen specific Th17 cells lacking miR-155 are defective in their capacity to cause EAE. Gene expression profiling of purified miR-155-/- IL-17F+ Th17 cells identified a subset of effector genes that are dependent upon miR-155 for their proper expression through a mechanism involving repression of the transcription factor Ets1. Among the genes reduced in the absence of miR-155 was IL-23R, resulting in miR-155-/- Th17 cells being hypo-responsive to IL-23. Taken together, our study demonstrates a critical role for miR-155 in Th17 cells as they unleash autoimmune inflammation, and finds that this occurs through a signaling network involving miR-155, Ets1 and the clinically relevant IL-23-IL-23R pathway. two biological replicates of miR-155-/- CD4+ IL-17F RFP+ T cells compared to two biological replicates of miR-155+/+CD4+IL-17F RFP+ T cells (as a control).

Mouse Th17 T cells, IL-23 stimulated

Project description:Interleukin 23 (IL-23) triggers pathogenic features in pro-inflammatory, IL-17-secreting T cells (Th17 and Tγδ17) that play a key role in the development of inflammatory diseases. However, the IL-23 signaling cascade remains largely undefined. Here we used quantitative phosphoproteomics to characterize IL-23 signaling in primary murine Th17 cells. We quantified 6,888 phosphorylation sites in Th17 cells, and found 168 phosphorylations regulated upom IL-23 stimulation. IL-23 increased the phosphorylation of the myosin regulatory light chain (RLC), an actomyosin contractibility marker, in Th17 and Tγδ cells. IL-23-induced RLC phosphorylation required JAK2 and ROCK catalytic activity, and the study of the IL-23/ROCK axis revealed an unexpected role of IL-23 in the migration of Tγδ17 and Th17 cells. Moreover, pharmacological inhibition of ROCK reduced Tγδ17 recruitment to inflamed skin upon challenge with inflammatory agent Imiquimod. This work: i) provides new insights into phosphorylation networks that control Th17 cells, ii) widely expands the current knowledge on IL-23 signaling, and iii) contributes to the increasing list of immune cells subsets characterized by global phosphoproteomic approaches.
