The intestinal microbiota regulates body composition through NFIL3 and the circadian clock

ABSTRACT: The intestinal microbiota has been identified as an environmental factor that markedly impacts energy storage and body fat accumulation, yet the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Here we show that the microbiota regulates body composition through the circadian transcription factor NFIL3. Nfil3 transcription oscillates diurnally in intestinal epithelial cells and the amplitude of the circadian oscillation is controlled by the microbiota through type 3 innate lymphoid cells (ILC3), STAT3, and the epithelial cell circadian clock. NFIL3 controls expression of a circadian lipid metabolic program and regulates lipid absorption and export in intestinal epithelial cells. These findings provide mechanistic insight into how the intestinal microbiota regulates body composition and establish NFIL3 as an essential molecular link among the microbiota, the circadian clock, and host metabolism.

Ontogeny and function of the circadian clock in intestinal organoids [mouse]

Project description:Circadian rhythms regulate diverse aspects of gastrointestinal physiology ranging from the composition of microbiota to motility. However, development of the intestinal circadian clock and detailed molecular mechanisms regulating circadian physiology of the intestine remain largely unknown. The lack of appropriate human model systems that enable organ- and/or diseasespecific interrogation of clock functions is a major obstacle hindering advancements of translational applications using chronotherapy. In this report, we show that both pluripotent stem cell-derived human intestinal organoids engrafted into mice and patient-derived human intestinal enteroids (HIEs) possess robust circadian rhythms, and demonstrate circadian phase-dependent necrotic cell death responses to Clostridium difficile toxin B (TcdB). Intriguingly, mouse and human enteroids demonstrate anti-phasic necrotic cell death responses. RNA-Seq data show ~4% of genes are rhythmically expressed in HIEs. Remarkably, we observe anti-phasic gene expression of Rac1, a small GTPase directly inactivated by TcdB, between mouse and human enteroids. Importantly, the observed circadian time-dependent necrotic cell death response is abolished in both mouse enteroids and human intestinal organoids (HIOs) lacking robust circadian rhythms. Our findings uncover robust functions of circadian rhythms regulating critical clock-controlled genes (CCGs) in human enteroids governing organism-specific, circadian phasedependent necrotic cell death responses. Our data highlight unique differences between mouse and human enteroids, and lay a foundation for human organ- and disease-specific investigation of clock functions using human organoids for translational applications.

Differential requirement for Nfil3 during NK cell development

Project description:Nfil3 has multiple functions during conventional NK cell and thymic NK cell development. Nfil3 controls NK cell development from the earliest committed NK cell progenitor stage. Nfil3-/- prepro NK cells retained T-cell potential due to the failure to repress T cell specific genes. At later stages of NK cell development, Nfil3 regulates the formation of mature NK cells by promoting directly or indirectly the expression of transcription factor Eomes. We also demonstrate that Nfil3 is important for thymic NK cell development whereas Trail+ immature NK cells generated in the bone marrow of neonates and in the adult liver develop independent of Nfil3 function. We used microarrays to analyse the changes in gene expression due to the presence or absence of Nfil3, both in prepro NK cells and ALP cells (all lymphoid progenitors)

Light-entrained and brain-tuned circadian circuits regulate ILC3 and gut homeostasis

Project description:Group 3 innate lymphoid cells (ILC3) are major regulators of inflammation, infection, microbiota composition and metabolism. ILC3 and neuronal cells were shown to interact at discrete mucosal locations to steer mucosal defence. Nevertheless, whether neuroimmune circuits operate at an organismal level, integrating extrinsic environmental signals to orchestrate ILC3 responses remains elusive. Here we show that light-entrained and brain-tuned circadian circuits regulate enteric ILC3, intestinal homeostasis and the host lipid metabolism. We found that enteric ILC3 display circadian expression of clock genes and ILC3-related transcription factors. ILC3-autonomous ablation of the circadian regulator Arntl led to disrupted gut ILC3 homeostasis, impaired epithelial reactivity, deregulated microbiome, increased susceptibility to bowel infection and disrupted lipid metabolism. Loss of ILC3-intrinsic Arntl shaped the gut postcode receptors of ILC3. Strikingly, light-dark cycles, feeding rhythms and microbial cues differentially regulated ILC3 clocks, with light signals as major entraining cues of ILC3. Accordingly, surgical- and genetically-induced deregulation of brain rhythmicity led to disrupted circadian ILC3 oscillations, deregulated microbiome and altered lipid metabolism. Our work reveals a circadian circuitry that translates environmental light cues into enteric ILC3, shaping intestinal health and organismal homeostasis.

Total RNA-Seq of testis and ovaries of conventional raised (convR) and Germ-free (GF) female mice under ad libitum feeding regimen.

Project description:Gut microbiota and the circadian clock are both key regulators of the metabolic processes. Although recent evidence points to the impact of the circadian clock on microbiota, gut microbiota effect on diurnal host gene expression remains elusive. A transcriptome analysis of germ-free mice reveals subtle changes in circadian clock gene expression. However, a lack of microbiome leads to liver feminization and alters the expression of male-specific genes involved in lipid metabolism and xenobiotic detoxification associated with sustained activation of the Growth Hormone pathway. These results emphasize the mutual interaction of gut microbiota and its host even on unexpected functions.
