Project description:Immune responses in diverse tissue sites are critical for protective immunity and homeostasis. Here, we investigated how tissue localization regulates the development and function of human Natural Killer (NK) cells, an innate lymphocyte important for anti-viral and tumor immunity. Integrating high dimensional analysis of NK cells from blood, lymphoid organs and mucosal tissue sites from 48 individuals, we identify tissue-specific patterns of NK cell subset distribution, maturation and function across age and genetic diversity. Mature and terminally differentiated NK cells with enhanced effector function predominate in blood, bone marrow, spleen and lungs, exhibiting shared transcriptional programs across sites. By contrast, precursor and immature NK cells with reduced effector capacity prevail in lymph nodes and intestines, exhibiting tissue resident signatures and site-specific adaptations. Together, our results reveal anatomic control of NK cell development and maintenance as tissue resident populations, while mature, terminally differentiated subsets mediate immunosurveillance through diverse peripheral sites.

Project description:Immune responses in diverse tissue sites are critical for protective immunity and homeostasis. Here, we investigate how tissue localization regulates the development and function of human natural killer (NK) cells, innate lymphocytes important for anti-viral and tumor immunity. Integrating high-dimensional analysis of NK cells from blood, lymphoid organs, and mucosal tissue sites from 60 individuals, we identify tissue-specific patterns of NK cell subset distribution, maturation, and function maintained across age and between individuals. Mature and terminally differentiated NK cells with enhanced effector function predominate in blood, bone marrow, spleen, and lungs and exhibit shared transcriptional programs across sites. By contrast, precursor and immature NK cells with reduced effector capacity populate lymph nodes and intestines and exhibit tissue-resident signatures and site-specific adaptations.

Project description:Natural killer (NK) cells are innate lymphocytes that play a major role in immunosurveillance against tumor initiation and metastasis spread. Signals and checkpoints that regulate NK cell fitness and function in the tumor microenvironment are not well defined. Transforming grow factor (TGF)- is a recognized suppressor of NK cells that inhibits IL-15 dependent signaling events and induces cellular transdifferentiation, however the role of other SMAD signaling pathways in NK cells is unknown. We used a global, label-free proteomics approach to compare the protein expression profiles of NK cells in the presence of TGF-b or activin-A.

Project description:Natural killer (NK) cells are circulating lymphocytes that possess both innate and adaptive features, the latter including antigen-specific clonal expansion and long-lived memory responses. Unlike other adaptive lymphocytes like T and B cells, NK cells are not thought to require priming in lymphoid organs during activation. However, although NK cells respond in multiple tissue sites during cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection, here we observed that early activation and virus-specific expansion occurs predominantly in the spleen. These splenic NK cells exhibited heightened TNF-a signaling, which we identify as a novel and critical regulator of both innate and adaptive responses through engagement of distinct NF-kB signaling arms downstream of TNFR2. These findings highlight the central role of the spleen as a lymphoid organ in facilitating the innate-to-adaptive transition NK cells undergo during viral infection, and provide insight into how we can better generate innate and adaptive NK cell immunity across diverse settings. Bulk RNA-Seq data of WT Ly49H+ NK from spleen or liver on day 0 and day 1 post MCMV infection.

Project description:African American (AA) women are disproportionally affected by obesity, particularly in the setting of adverse social determinants of health (aSDoH), which contribute to cardiovascular disease (CVD) and cancer disparities. Obesity and aSDoH appear to impair Natural Killer cells (NKs), which are critical in the innate immune response; however, the underlying mechanisms are largely unknown. We sought to investigate signaling pathways involved in NK dysfunction related to obesity in AA women from under-resourced neighborhoods disproportionately exposed to aSDoH. We determined in freshly isolated NK cells that obesity and higher social isolation, as well as higher depression and lower socioeconomic status, are associated with a shift in NK cell subsets away from CD56dim/CD16+ cytotoxic NK cells. Using ex vivo data, we identified LDL as a serum marker related to NK cell function in an AA population from under-resourced neighborhoods. Additionally, NK cells from AA women with obesity and LDL-treated NK cells displayed a loss in NK cell function. Comparative unbiased RNA sequencing analysis revealed DUSP1-dependent signaling as a common factor. Subsequent experiments involving chemical inhibition of DUSP1 signaling and DUSP1 overexpression in NK cells highlighted the significance of DUSP1 in lysosome biogenesis and, ultimately, NK cell function. Our data demonstrate a pathway by which obesity in the setting of aSDoH may relate to NK dysfunction, making DUSP1 an important target for further investigation of CVD and cancer disparities.
