Blocking CD226 regulates ILC2 effector function and alleviates airway hyperreactivity

ABSTRACT: Type 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) play a pivotal role in type 2 asthma. CD226 is a costimulatory molecule involved in various inflammatory diseases. Here, we aimed to investigate CD226 expression and function within human and mouse ILC2s, and to assess the impact of targeting CD226 on ILC2-mediated airway hyperreactivity (AHR). Our findings demonstrated an inducible expression of CD226 in activated ILC2s, enhancing their cytokine secretion and effector functions. Blocking CD226 ameliorates ILC2-dependent AHR in IL-33 and Alternaria Alternata-induced models. Interestingly, CD226 is expressed and inducible in human ILC2s, and its blocking reduces cytokine production. Finally, we showed that peripheral ILC2s in asthmatic patients exhibited elevated CD226 expression compared to healthy controls.Our findings underscore the potential of CD226 as a novel therapeutic target in ILC2s, presenting a promising avenue for ameliorating AHR and allergic asthma.

Next Generation Sequencing Facilitates Quantitative Analysis of the effects of PD-1 deficiency on sorted mouse pulmonary ILC2 Transcriptomes

Project description:Allergic asthma is a leading chronic disease associated with airway hyperreactivity (AHR). Type-2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) are a potent source of T-helper 2 cytokines that promote AHR and lung inflammation. In this study, we evaluated the protective role of PD-1 on the development of AHR by focusing on its capacity to regulate ILC2 activation. We find that PD-1 is highly inducible in pulmonary ILC2s and shapes their transcriptional activity, activation and metabolism. Our findings provide new insights regarding the mechanisms of ILC2 regulation, which could be used in innovative approaches for the treatment of allergic asthma.

Next Generation Sequencing Facilitates Quantitative Analysis of the effects of CD200R engagment on sorted mouse pulmonary ILC2 Transcriptomes.

Project description:The prevalence of asthma and airway hyperreactivity (AHR) is increasing at an alarming rate. Group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) are copious producers of type 2 cytokines, which leads to AHR and lung inflammation. In this study, we demonstrate murine ILC2s express CD200 receptor (CD200R), and this expression is inducible. We ascertain CD200R engagement inhibits activation, proliferation, and type 2 cytokine production, revealing a potent immunoregulatory role for CD200–CD200R axis on ILC2s. Furthermore, we demonstrate that CD200R engagement inhibits both canonical and non-canonical NF-B signaling pathways in activated ILC2s. Importantly, we herein design both preventative and therapeutic approaches utilizing CD200R engagement on ILC2s, which lead to improved airway resistance, dynamic compliance, and eosinophilia. Finally, our results reveal CD200R is expressed on human ILC2s, and its engagement ameliorates AHR in humanized ILC2 models, further emphasizing the translational applications of our findings for treatment of ILC2-related diseases such as allergic asthma.

Piezo1 channels restrain ILC2s and regulate the development of airway hyperactivity [piezo1KO]

Project description:Mechanosensitive ion channels sense force and pressure in immune cells to drive the inflammatory response in highly mechanical organs. Here we report that Piezo1 channels repress group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s)-driven type 2 inflammation in the lungs. Piezo1 is induced on lung ILC2s upon activation, as genetic ablation of Piezo1 in ILC2s increases their function and exacerbates the development of airway hyperreactivity (AHR). Conversely, Piezo1 agonist Yoda1 reduces ILC2-driven lung inflammation. Mechanistically, Yoda1 inhibits ILC2 cytokine secretion and proliferation in a KLF2-dependent manner, as we further found that Piezo1 engagement reduces ILC2 oxidative metabolism. Consequently, in vivo Yoda1 treatment notably reduces the development of AHR in experimental models of ILC2-driven allergic asthma. Human circulating ILC2s express and induce Piezo1 upon activation, as Yoda1 treatment of humanized mice reduces human ILC2-driven AHR. Our studies define Piezo1 as a critical regulator of ILC2s and we propose the potential of Piezo1 activation as a novel therapeutic approach for the treatment of ILC2-driven allergic asthma.

Transcription factor Bcl11b controls identity and function of mature innate lymphoid cells type II

Project description:Type-2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) promote anti-helminth responses and contribute to allergies. Though Bcl11b has been previously considered a T-lineage identity transcription factor (TF) that restrains the innate-cell genetic programs, we report here that Bcl11b is highly expressed in mature ILC2s and acts upstream of the key ILC2 TFs Gfi1, Gata-3, and of IL-33 receptor IL1rl1 (T1ST2). Additionally, Bcl11b-/- ILC2s de-repressed Rorγt, Ahr and IL-23 receptor, normally expressed in type-3 ILCs (ILC3s). Consequently, Bcl11b-/- ILC2s lost ILC2 functions and gained ILC3 functions, expanding in response to the protease allergen papain, however producing IL-17 and IL-22, and not IL-5 and IL-13, causing lung neutrophilia rather than eosinophilia, and diminished mucus production. Our results broaden Bcl11b's role from a T-cell only TF, and establishes that Bcl11b sustains mature ILC2 genetic and functional programs and lineage fidelity through positive regulation of essential ILC2 TFs and negative regulation of pivotal ILC3 TFs.

Epigenome analyses implicate ILC2s as key mediators of allergic airway inflammation

Project description:Group 2 innate lymphoid (ILC2) cells are major producers of the cytokines that drive allergic asthma and elevated levels of ILC2s have been detected in the blood and sputum of asthma patients. Asthma susceptibility has strong (epi)genetic components, but the underlying mechanisms and whether they are linked to ILC2 biology remain unclear. To reveal the molecular basis of ILC2 function in allergic airway inflammation (AAI) and assess its relevance for understanding how genetic variation affects asthma susceptibility. Gata3-IRES-YFP reporter mice were used to isolate ILC2s from bronchoalveolar lavage fluid and lymph nodes. Human naive ILC2s were purified from peripheral blood and activated in vitro. We employed RNA-Seq, ChIPm-Seq and computational approaches to study the transcriptome and epigenome in the context of ILC2 activation, tissue-specific functions and genetic susceptibility to asthma. Activated ILC2s displayed a tissue-specific gene expression signature that emerged from a highly similar epigenome. We identify superenhancers - a class of regulatory regions susceptible to epigenetic drugs - controlling ILC2 identity and asthma-associated genes. The majority of genes implicated in asthma by genome-wide association studies resided in an active or primed state in ILC2s. A substantial number of asthma-associated genetic variants were found in ILC2 gene regulatory elements. Our genome-wide analyses reveal new potential functions for ILC2s in AAI, which possess a plastic and flexible epigenome. Importantly, we reveal a strong link between gene regulatory mechanisms in ILC2s and the (epi)genetic basis of asthma susceptibility, supporting a pathogenic role for ILC2s in human asthma.

Epigenome analysis reveals novel aspects of ILC2 activation and supports a pathogenic role in asthma

Project description:Recent studies have shown that group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) can drive eosinophilic airway inflammation in mouse models of asthma. Moreover, elevated ILC2 counts and/or activity have been reported in asthmatics, together suggesting that ILC2s play an important role in asthma pathophysiology. However, many aspects of ILC2 biology are not fully understood, including the mechanisms underlying ILC2 activation, the tissue-specific functions of ILC2s during inflammation (e.g. lung versus draining lymph node) and what drives ILC2 plasticity. Importantly, it is unknown whether human (epi)genetic variation associated with asthma susceptibility and persistence can be coupled to ILC2s. We address these questions in our manuscript by studying the epigenome of murine ILC2s obtained from Gata3-reporter mice with eosinophilic airway inflammation as well as human ILC2s obtained from peripheral blood and activated in vitro.

Next Generation Sequencing Facilitates Quantitative Analysis of the effects of IL-10 production on sorted mouse pulmonary ILC2 Transcriptomes.

Project description:ILC2s are the dominant innate lymphoid cell population in the lungs at steady state and their release of type-2 cytokines is a central driver in responding eosinophil infiltration and increased airway hyperreactivity (AHR). For the first time, our laboratory has identified a unique subset of ILC2s in the lungs that produces and secretes IL-10, an anti-inflammatory cytokine, upon stimulation with IL-4. Overall this study introduces a novel, IL-4-inducible IL-10-producing population of ILC210s in the lung are naturally present in a high Th2 model of murine asthma. This research introduces a novel, cell-based immunotherapeutic potential of ILC210s that can be modulated by the signlaing transcription factors Blimp-1 and cMAF, as well as by glucose availability, opening new avenues for the treatment of ILC2-dependent airway inflammation.

Transcriptomic analysis of freshly purified human CD226- and CD226+ CD8+ T cell subsets isolated from the peripheral blood of healthy donors.

Project description:We recently found that loss of the activating receptor CD226 (DNAM-1) was a critical mechanism affecting CD8+ T cell responsiveness to TCR stimulation. To better understand the molecular differences between CD226- and CD226+ CD8+ T cells, we decided to perform a global transcriptional analysis of purified naive (Tn, CD62L+CD45RA+), central memory (Tcm, CD62L+CD45RA-) and terminal effector memory (Temra, CD62L-CD45RA+) CD226+ and CD226- CD8+ T cells using next generation RNA sequencing.

Expression data from naive, effector and memory-like ILC2s isolated from mouse lungs and those from effector and memory-like ILC2s isolated from mediastinal lymph node

Project description:Group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) in the lung are stimulated by inhaled allergens. ILC2s do not directly recognize allergens but they are stimulated by cytokines including interleukin (IL)-33 released by damaged epithelium.Lung ILC2s, upon stimulation, produce T helper 2 cell-type cytokines inducing T cell independent allergic lung inflammation. We now report that lung ILC2s, upon activation by an allergen or IL-33, acquire the properties of memory cells. The activated ILC2s initially proliferate and secrete cytokines, followed by a contraction phase as they stop producing cytokines. Nevertheless, some persist long after the resolution of the inflammation and acquire intrinsic capacities to react to unrelated allergens more vigorously than naÃ¯ve ILC2s, thus mediating a severe allergic lung inflammation. Gene expression profiles of the previously activated ILC2s show a gene signature of memory T cells. These antigen non-specific memory ILC2s may explain why asthma patients are often sensitized to multiple allergens. ILC2s were isolated from mouse lungs from naive and IL-33 injected mice 4 days, 14 days and 4 months after the initial treatment. RNA was extracted from those ILC2 populations and analyzed for gene expression profiles. RNA was also extracted from ILC2s isolated from lung draining mediastinal lymph node (mLN) 4 days and 14 days after IL-33 treatment.
