Tissue-Resident Natural Killer (NK) Cells Are Cell Lineages Distinct From Thymic and Conventional Splenic NK Cells (part 2)

ABSTRACT: Natural killer (NK) cells belong to the innate immune system where they can control virus infections and developing tumors by cytotoxicity and production of inflammatory cytokines. Most studies of mouse NK cells, however, have focused on conventional NK (cNK) cells found in the spleen. Recently, we described two populations of NK cells within the liver, tissue-resident NK (trNK) cells and those resembling splenic cNK cells. However, the lineage relationship of trNK to cNK cells was unclear because trNK cells display a phenotype associated with immature, developing cNK cells. Moreover, liver trNK cells could be related to thymic NK cells or alternatively, a lineage distinct from both cNK and thymic NK cells. Herein we used detailed transcriptomic, flow cytometric, and functional analysis of mice deficient in several transcription factors to determine that liver trNK cells form a distinct lineage from cNK and thymic NK cells, especially because they do not require NFIL3 (E4BP4), the previously described NK cellspecification factor. Analysis of other tissues indicate the presence of trNK cells in skin and uterus with different transcription factor requirements. Thus, there are at least four distinct lineages of NK cells: cNK, thymic, liver (and skin) trNK, and uterine trNK cells. Liver DX5-CD49+, liver DX5+CD49-, spleen DX5+ CD49- populations of NK cells were sorted with FACS pooling cells from individual mice to end up with ~100k cells for each samples. mRNA was derived from lysates using Invitrogen oligo-dT beads

Gene expression profiling of murine liver NK cells

Project description:The NK cell pool is composed of distinct NK cell subsets with divergent phenotypic and functional features. In order to determine whether DX5- and DX5+ NK cells from murine livers represent different NK cell subsets, DX5- and DX5+ liver NK cells of adult mice were respectively sorted for gene expression analysis using the Affymetrix GeneChip Mouse Genome 430 2.0 arrays. DX5-NK1.1+CD3- cells and DX5+NK1.1+CD3- cells were sorted from the liver of naive B6 wild-type mice. RNA of each sample was then extracted and hybridized on Affymetrix microarrays to detail differences between DX5- and DX5+ liver NK cells in gene expression.

Expression data from WT liver DX5- NK cells and dnTGFbRII liver DX5- NK cells

Project description:Liver is a unique immunological organ containing large number of NK cells which play an important role in the maintenance of liver homeostasis, especially the specific liver resident DX5- NK cell subset. We used microarrays to detail the differences of normal DX5- NK cells and the DX5- NK cells in inflammatory environment.

Differential requirement for Nfil3 during NK cell development

Project description:Natural killer (NK) cells can be grouped into distinct subsets that are localized to different organs and exhibit different capacity to secrete cytokines and mediate cytotoxicity. Despite these hallmarks that reflect tissue-specific specialization in NK cells, little is known about the factors that control the development of these distinct subsets. The basic leucine zipper transcription factor nuclear factor interleukin 3 (Nfil3; E4bp4) is essential for bone marrow-derived NK cell development but it is not clear whether Nfil3 is equally important for all NK cell subsets nor how it induces NK lineage commitment. Here we show that Nfil3 is required for the formation of Eomesodermin (Eomes)-expressing NK cells, including conventional medullary and thymic NK cells, whereas TRAIL+ Eomes- NK cells develop independent of Nfil3. Loss of Nfil3 during the development of bone marrow-derived NK cells resulted in reduced expression of Eomes and, conversely, restoration of Eomes expression in Nfil3-/- progenitors rescued NK cell development and maturation. Collectively, these findings demonstrate that Nfil3 drives the formation of mature NK cell by inducing Eomes expression and reveal the differential requirements of NK cell subsets for Nfil3.

Comparison of the expression profiles of wild-type (WT), Tyk2-deficient (Tyk2-/-) and kinase-inactive Tyk2 mutant (Tyk2K923E) NK cells

Project description:Define the impact of Tyk2 and Tyk2K923E on the transcriptome of NK cells Tyrosine kinase 2 (TYK2) is a Janus kinase (JAK) that is crucially involved in inflammation, carcinogenesis and defense against infection. The cytotoxic activity of natural killer (NK) cells in TYK2-deficient (Tyk2-/- ) mice is severely reduced, although the underlying mechanisms are largely unknown. Using Tyk2-/- mice and mice expressing a kinase-inactive version of TYK2 (Tyk2K923E), we show that NK cell function is partly independent of the enzymatic activity of TYK2. Tyk2-/- and Tyk2K923E NK cells develop normally in the bone marrow, but the maturation of splenic Tyk2-/- NK cells (and to a lesser extent of Tyk2K923E NK cells) is impaired. In contrast, the production of interferon ? (IFN?) in response to interleukin 12 (IL-12) or to stimulation through NK cell-activating receptors strictly depends on the presence of enzymatically active TYK2. The cytotoxic activity of Tyk2K923E NK cells against a range of target cells in vitro is higher than that of Tyk2-/- NK cells. Consistently, Tyk2K923E mice control the growth of NK cell-targeted tumors significantly better than TYK2-deficient mice, showing the physiological relevance of the finding. Inhibitors of TYK2’s kinase activity are being developed for the treatment of inflammatory diseases and cancers, but their effects on tumor immune surveillance have not been investigated. Our finding that TYK2 has kinase-independent functions in vivo suggests that such inhibitors will leave NK cell mediated tumor surveillance largely intact and that they will be suitable for use in cancer therapy. Splenic NK cells derived from WT, Tyk2-/- and Tyk2K923E mice (DX5-MACS enriched from 3-4 mice per genotype) were grown in the presence rhIL-2 (5000 U/ml) for 7 days.

RNA-Seq of FACS-sorted ex vivo NK cells from control (Cre neg, GFPNK/NK), STAT5BNK/NK, N642HNK/NK and diseased N642HNK/NK mice

Project description:Somatic STAT5B gain-of-function mutations have been frequently found in patients with T- and NK-cell neoplasms. STAT5BN642H represents the most frequently occuring STAT5B mutation. To investigate the molecular mechanism of STAT5BN642H-driven NK-cell leukemia, we performed RNA-Seq of liver derived FACS-sorted diseased N642HNK/NK and aged non-diseased control (Cre neg, GFPNK/NK), STAT5BNK/NK, N642HNK/NK NK cells.
