RORγt inhibition selectively targets IL-17 producing human iNKT and γδ-T cells enriched in Spondyloarthritis while preserving IL-22 responses

ABSTRACT: Dysregulated IL-23/IL-17 responses have been linked to psoriatic arthritis and other forms of spondyloarthritides (SpA). RORγt, the key Thelper17 (Th17) cell transcriptional regulator, is also expressed by subsets of innate-like T cells, including invariant natural killer T (iNKT) and γδ-T cells, but how they contribute to disorders such as SpA is still unclear. Here we describe the presence of particular RORγt+T-betloPLZF- iNKT and γδ-hi T cell subsets in healthy peripheral blood. RORγt+ iNKT and γδ-hi T cells showed profound IL-23 mediated Th17-like immune responses and were clearly enriched within inflamed joints of SpA patients where they act as major IL-17 secretors. SpA derived iNKT and γδ-T cells showed a unique Th17 skewed phenotype and gene expression profile. Strikingly, RORγt inhibition blocked γδ17 and iNKT17 cell function while selectively sparing IL-22+ subsets. Overall, these findings highlight a unique diversity of human RORγt+ T cells and underscore the potential of RORγt antagonism to modulate aberrant type 17 responses.

Mouse Th17 T cells, IL-23 stimulated

Project description:Interleukin 23 (IL-23) triggers pathogenic features in pro-inflammatory, IL-17-secreting T cells (Th17 and Tγδ17) that play a key role in the development of inflammatory diseases. However, the IL-23 signaling cascade remains largely undefined. Here we used quantitative phosphoproteomics to characterize IL-23 signaling in primary murine Th17 cells. We quantified 6,888 phosphorylation sites in Th17 cells, and found 168 phosphorylations regulated upom IL-23 stimulation. IL-23 increased the phosphorylation of the myosin regulatory light chain (RLC), an actomyosin contractibility marker, in Th17 and Tγδ cells. IL-23-induced RLC phosphorylation required JAK2 and ROCK catalytic activity, and the study of the IL-23/ROCK axis revealed an unexpected role of IL-23 in the migration of Tγδ17 and Th17 cells. Moreover, pharmacological inhibition of ROCK reduced Tγδ17 recruitment to inflamed skin upon challenge with inflammatory agent Imiquimod. This work: i) provides new insights into phosphorylation networks that control Th17 cells, ii) widely expands the current knowledge on IL-23 signaling, and iii) contributes to the increasing list of immune cells subsets characterized by global phosphoproteomic approaches.

Enhanced Pathogenicity of Th17 cells Generated in the Absence of Transforming Growth Factor-β Signaling

Project description:CD4+ T cells that selectively produce interleukin (IL)-17, are critical for host defense and autoimmunity1-4. Crucial for T helper17 (Th17) cells in vivo5,6, IL-23 has been thought to be incapable of driving initial differentiation. Rather, IL-6 and transforming growth factor (TGF)-β1 have been argued to be the factors responsible for initiating specification7-10. Herein, we show that Th17 differentiation occurs in the absence of TGF-β signaling. Neither IL-6 nor IL-23 alone efficiently generated Th17 cells; however, these cytokines in combination with IL-1β effectively induced IL-17 production in naïve precursors, independently of TGF-β. Epigenetic modification of the Il17a/Il17f and Rorc promoters proceeded without TGF-β1, allowing the generation of cells that co-expressed Rorγt and T-bet. T-bet+Rorγt+ Th17 cells are generated in vivo during experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE), and adoptively transferred Th17 cells generated with IL-23 in the absence of TGF-β1 were more pathogenic in this experimental disease. These data suggest a new model for Th17 differentiation. Consistent with genetic data linking the IL23R with autoimmunity, our findings re-emphasize the role of IL-23 and therefore have important implications for the development of new therapies.

Characterization of the developmental landscape of murine RORγt+ iNKT cells

Project description:Invariant natural killer T cells (iNKT) expressing the retinoic acid receptor-related orphan receptor γt (RORγt) and producing IL-17 represent a minor subset of CD1d-restricted iNKT cells (iNKT17) in C57BL/6J (B6) mice. We aimed in this study to define the reasons for their low distribution and the sequence of events accompanying their normal thymic development. We found that RORγt+ iNKT cells have higher proliferation potential and a greater propensity to apoptosis than RORγt- iNKT cells. These cells do not likely reside in the thymus indicating that thymus emigration, and higher apoptosis potential, could contribute to RORγt+ iNKT cell reduced thymic distribution. Ontogeny studies suggest that mature HSAlow RORγt+ iNKT cells might develop through developmental stages defined by a differential expression of CCR6 and CD138 during which RORγt expression and IL-17 production capabilities are progressively acquired. Finally, we found that RORγt+ iNKT cells perceive a strong TCR signal that could contribute to their entry into a specific Th17 like developmental program influencing their survival and migration. Overall, our study proposes a hypothetical thymic developmental sequence for iNKT17 cells, which could be of great use to study molecular mechanisms regulating this developmental program.

Interleukin-23-induced transcription factor Blimp1 promotes pathogenicity of T helper 17 cells

Project description:Interleukin-23 (IL-23) is a pro-inflammatory cytokine required for the pathogenicity of T helper 17 (Th17) cells but the molecular mechanisms governing this process remain unclear. We identified the transcription factor Blimp-1 (Prdm1) as a key IL-23-induced factor that drove the inflammatory function of Th17 cells. In contrast to thymic deletion of Blimp-1, which causes T cell development defects and spontaneous autoimmunity, peripheral deletion of this transcription factor resulted in reduced Th17 activation and reduced severity of autoimmune encephalomyelitis. Furthermore, genome wide occupancy and overexpression studies in Th17 cells revealed that Blimp-1 co-localized with transcription factors RORγt, STAT-3 and p300 at the Il23r, Il17a/f and Csf2 cytokine loci to enhance their expression. Blimp-1 also directly bound to and repressed cytokine loci Il2 and Bcl6. Taken together, our results demonstrate that Blimp-1 is an essential transcription factor downstream of IL-23 that acts in concert with RORγt to activate the Th17 inflammatory program.

Reduced TCRγδ signal strength engages phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) to drive thymic development of IL-17A-secreting γδ T cells

Project description:Reduced TCRγδ signal strength manifest by constrained Syk activity engages PI3K to maintain expression of key master regulators of the IL-17 program; RORγt and c-Maf, and drive thymic development of IL-17A-secreting γδ T cells (γδ17 cells). Notably, inhibition of PI3K not only abrogates γδ17 cell development, but also permits γδ progenitors to adopt a type-I interferon gene expression signature that identifies a novel CD8(+)Sca-1(+) γδ T cell subset.

The TNF family member TL1A induces IL-22 secretion in committed human TH17 cells via IL-9 induction

Project description:TL1A contributes to the pathogenesis of several chronic inflammatory diseases, including Inflammatory Bowel Diseases by enhancing TH1, TH17, and TH2 responses. TL1A mediates a strong co-stimulation of these TH subsets particularly of mucosal CCR9+ T cells. However, the signaling pathways that TL1A induces in different TH subsets are incompletely understood. Here, we investigated the function of TL1A on human TH17 cells. TL1A together with TGF- IL-6, and IL-23 enhanced the secretion of IL-17 and IFN- from human CD4+ memory T cells. TL1A induced the expression of the transcription factors BATF and T-bet that correlated with the secretion of IL-17 and IFN-. In contrast, TL1A alone induced high levels of IL-22 in memory CD4+ T cells and committed TH17 cells. However, TL1A did not enhance expression of IL-17A in TH17 cells. Expression of the transcription factor aryl hydrocarbon receptor that regulates expression of IL-22 was not affected by TL1A. We performed transcriptome analysis of TH17 cells to determine genes that are transcriptionally regulated by TL1A. transcriptome analysis revealed increased expression of IL-9 in response to TL1A.

Meningeal γδ T cells producing IL-17 control synaptic plasticity and cognitive behaviour

Project description:The conventional notion of “immune privilege” of the brain has been revised to accommodate its infiltration, at steady state, by immune cells that participate in normal neurophysiology (Louveau, Trends Immunol 2015; Kipnis science 2016; Filiano, Nat Rev Neurosciences 2017). Surprisingly, such neuroimmune functions have been linked to “pro-inflammatory” cytokines like IL-4 or IFN-α, shown to control behavioural and social cognition (Derecki, JEM 2010; Filiano, Nature 2016). Here we identify a pro-cognitive role for IL-17 in short-term memory that derives from a previously unknown meningeal-resident γδ T cell subset. This was mostly composed of foetal thymic-derived Vγ6+ T cells, found in the meninges at birth and persisting throughout life, where they were strikingly polarized towards IL-17 production. In fact, γδ T cells were the overwhelming source of meningeal IL-17, whereas IFN-γ was mostly provided by T cells. To assess whether the constitutive production of IL-17 by γδ T cells influenced the cognitive performance of mice, we tested TCRδ-/-, IL-17-/- and respective WT littermate control mice in classical learning paradigms. We observed that mice deficient either for γδ T cells or IL-17 displayed impaired short-term memory in the Y maze paradigm, while retaining normal long-term spatial memory in the Morris water maze. A detailed proteomics analysis of the hippocampus provided mechanistic insight into reduced plasticity of the glutamatergic synapses in the absence of IL-17, which associated with impaired Long Term Potentiation (LTP). Conversely, IL-17 enhanced glial cell production of Brain Derived Neurotropic Factor (BDNF), whose exogenous provision rescued the LTP defect of IL-17-/- animals. Altogether, our data demonstrate that foetal-derived γδ T cells populate the brain meninges where they regulate synaptic plasticity and short-term memory through a non-inflammatory IL-17-dependent mechanism.
