Common lymphoid progenitor-independent pathways of innate and T lymphocyte development

ABSTRACT: All lymphocytes are thought to develop from common lymphoid progenitors (CLPs). However, lymphoid-primed multi-potent progenitors (LMPPs) are more efficient than CLPs in differentiating into T cells and group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s). Here, we have divided LMPPs into CD127− (LMPP-s) and CD127+ (LMPP+s) subsets and compared them with Ly6D− and Ly6D+ CLPs. Adult LMPP+s differentiated into T cells and ILCs more rapidly and efficiently than other progenitors in transplantation assays. The development of T cells and ILC2s is highly active in the neonatal period. Neonatal CLPs are rare and, unlike prominent neonatal LMPP+s, do not efficiently differentiate into T cells and ILC2s. ILC2s generated in the neonatal period are long-lived and persist in adult tissues. These results suggest that some ILCs and T cells may develop from LMPP+s via CLP-independent pathways.

PU.1 is required for the developmental progression of multipotent progenitors to common lymphoid progenitors.

Project description:The transcription factor PU.1 is a central regulator of hematopoiesis, required for the normal differentiation of the myeloid and lymphoid lineages. Due to its essential role in early development and the importance of PU.1 in regulating several defining markers of lymphoid progenitors, its precise function in early lymphopoiesis has remained unclear. Using conditional mutagenesis and alternative lineage identification strategies, we demonstrate the developmental stage restricted function for PU.1 in early lymphopoiesis. PU.1 was required for efficient generation of “lymphoid primed multipotent progenitors (LMPPs)” from hematopoietic stem cells and was essential for the subsequent formation of “common lymphoid progenitors (CLPs)”. In contrast, further differentiation into the B cell lineage was independent of PU.1. The function of PU.1 was dosage sensitive as loss of one allele decreased all stages of early lymphopoiesis. PU.1 expression mirrored its functional role during lineage differentiation. PU.1 peaked at LMPPs and was maintained in CLPs, before being down regulated in committed pro-B cells. Examination of the transcriptional changes in PU.1 conditionally deficient LSK cells revealed that PU.1 activates lymphoid and dendritic cell associated genes in LMPPs, while repressing genes normally expressed in neutrophils. These data identify PU.1 as a critical regulator of lymphoid priming and the transition between LMPPs and CLPs.

Expression profiling of early lymphoid progenitors deficient for Ebf1 and Foxo1

Project description:Foxo1 and Ebf1 deficiency leads to a similar disruption of normal B-cell development at the level of the common lymphoid progenitor (CLP). Both mouse strains display the existance of LY6D+ CLPs but a marked/complete lack of proB cells. To investigate similarities of the developmental defects observed we generated gene expression profiles from both genotypes (with corresponding WT controls). This illustrated a shared gene expression signature in Ebf1/Foxo1 deficient CLPs. Gene expression profiling was done using highly purified (FACS sorted) progenitor cells. Cells were purified from bone marrow of wild-type, Foxo1 deficient and Ebf1 deficient mice. Ebf1 deficient bone marrow was aquired by transplantation of Ebf1 deficient progenitors into irradiated hosts. Populations analysed were CLP LY6D-, CLP LY6D+ and proB cells.

Comparison of gene expression profiles of ex vivo sorted Common Lymphoid Progenitors (CLPs) and in vitro cultured cCLPs.

Project description:A common lymphoid progenitor cell culture system was established, maintaining a multipotent, proliferating state of CLPs. Cells can be cultured and expanded in vitro for several months, maintaining their in vitro and in vivo lymphoid differentiation potential. We were interested, whether cCLP are changing, with regards to their gene expression program, compared to in vivo CLPs, during their expansion in culture. Therefore we compared the gene expression profile of cultured cCLPs and their counterparts in vivo, by NextGenSeq. CLPs were sorted from bone marrow of 6-10 weeks old C57BL/6 mice (n=4). Cells were sorted for Lin-, IL7R+, Flk2+, CD27+, Ly6d- marker expressing CLPs by Flow Cytometry for gene expression analysis. In parallel the same cell population was sorted and cultured under cCLP culture conditions. After two months culture the cells sorted again for Lin-, CD27+, Ly6d- cells by Flow Cytometry for gene expression analysis (n=4). The analysis shows that cCLPs maintain a very similar transcription profile to ex vivo sorted common lymphoid progenitors.

Transcriptional deregulation in EZH2-deficient lymphocyte progenitors

Project description:This goal of this study was to identify genes that are deregulated in the absence of EZH2 in early lymphocyte progenitors. We examined gene expression by RNA-sequencing in sorted CLPs (Lin-CD117int CD127+ CD135+), pro-B cells (B220+CD19+CD43+), DN3 cells (Lin- CD25+ CD117-), splenic NK cells (Lin-NK1.1+DX5+) and bone marrow ILC2 cells (Lin- Sca1+CD127+) from Ezh2fl/fl Il7racre/+ and Il7racre/+ control mice. Reads were aligned to the mm10 reference genome by Tophat2.1.0. Reads were assigned to genes using the htseq-count tool from HTSeq v 0.6.1 and gene annotations from Ensembl release 78. Differential expression was calculated across 2-3 independent replicates by EdgeR. We found that CLPs, ILC2s, and splenic NK cells maintained their normal transcriptional programs despite loss of EZH2. In contrast, loss of EZH2 caused over 1000 genes to be deregulated in pro-B and DN3 cells indicating that EZH2 is required for transcriptomic stability in adaptive, but not innate lymphocyte progenitors.

Identification of human cytotoxic ILC3s

Project description:Human ILCs are classically categorized into five subsets; cytotoxic CD127-CD94+ NK cells and non-cytotoxic CD127+CD94-, ILC1s, ILC2s, ILC3s and LTi cells. Here, we identify a novel subset within the CD127+ ILC population, characterized by the expression of the cytotoxic marker CD94. These CD94+ ILCs strongly resemble conventional ILC3s in terms of phenotype, transcriptome and cytokine production, but are highly cytotoxic. IL-15 was unable to induce differentiation of CD94+ ILCs towards mature NK cells. Instead, CD94+ ILCs retained RORγt, CD127 and CD200R expression and produced IL-22 in response to IL-15. Culturing non-cytotoxic CD127+ ILC1s or ILC3s with IL-12 induced upregulation of CD94 and cytotoxic activity, effects that were not observed with IL-15 stimulation. Thus, human helper ILCs can acquire a cytotoxic program without differentiating into NK cells.

Unconventional ST2- and CD127-negative lung ILC2 populations are induced by Alternaria

Project description:Background: Alternaria exposure is associated with severe asthma in humans. Alternaria exposure in mice potently activates group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) via the IL-33/ST2 axis and causes ILC2s to robustly secrete type 2 cytokines. Objective: Our aim was to determine whether conventionally used ILC2 markers, ST2 (IL-33R) and CD127 (IL-7Ra), were sufficient to identify all Th2-cytokine producing ILCs after Alternaria exposure. Methods: Mice received intranasal Alternaria for three days prior to analysis. Lung ILCs were identified by flow cytometry as CD45+Lineage−Thy1.2+ lymphocyte-sized cells, divided into four subsets based on ST2 and CD127 expression, and stained for intracellular cytokines and transcription factors. Sort-purified ILC subpopulations were also analyzed by RNA sequencing and qPCR. Results: Alternaria exposure led to accumulation of all ILC populations regardless of ST2 or CD127 expression. Nearly half of the GATA-3+, IL-5+, and IL-13+ ILCs were “unconventional” as they were either single or double negative for ST2/CD127. Further, these populations upregulated CD25, KLRG1, and ICOS after Alternaria challenge. Some activated unconventional IL-5+ ILC2s also produced IFNγ and IL-17A. In addition to shared ILC2 transcripts (Gata3, Il5, Il13) in all populations, RNA-seq further identified novel transcripts enriched in each subset. Finally, transcripts from all populations that correlated best with IL-5 and IL-13 production included Tnfrsf18, Ffar2, and Pde4b. Conclusions: Unconventional ST2- and CD127-negative mouse lung ILC2 populations are induced by Alternaria. Thus, commonly used lung ILC2 identification methods based on ST2 and CD127 do not accurately account for the total ILC2 burden and may exclude nearly half of these cells.

RNA-seq analysis of the Innate Lymphoid Cells type 2 (ILC2) or their precursors (ILC2p ) sorted from WT and Tgfbr2-/- mice

Project description:Purpose: The molecular pathways underlying the development of innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) are mostly unknown. Results: TGF-β signaling programs the development of ILC2s from their progenitors. Specifically, the deficiency of TGF-β receptor II in bone marrow progenitors results in inefficient development of ILC2s, but not ILC1s or ILC3s. We found that hundreds of genes were changed in Tgfbr2-/- ILC2s compared to WT ILC2s (FDR < 0.1 and Fold-Change >1.5). Some ILC2-associated genes including Gata3, Il1rl1 (ST2), Il-5, Atxn1 (Sca1), and Ccr4 were decreased in Tgfbr2-/- ILC2s, according to RNA-seq analysis Conclusions: TGF-β upregulates the expression of the IL-33 receptor gene Il1rl1 (encoding IL-1 receptor-like 1, also known as ST2) in ILC2p and common helper-like innate lymphoid progenitors (CHILP), at least partially through the MEK-dependent pathway. These findings identify a function of TGF-β in the development of ILC2s from their progenitors.
