RNA-Seq from human ILC transitional populations

ABSTRACT: Innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) are tissue-resident lymphocytes subdivided into ILC1s, ILC2s and ILC3s based on core regulatory programs and signature cytokines secreted. ILCs exhibit functional plasticity: for instance, human IL-22-producing ILC3s convert into IFN-γ-producing ILC1-like in vitro. Whether this conversion occurs in vivo is unclear. Using flow cytometry, mass cytometry and scRNAseq, here we found that ILC3s and ILC1s occupy opposite ends of a spectrum including discrete subsets in human tonsils. RNA velocity suggested strong directionality toward ILC1s for one ILC3-ILC1 intermediate cluster. Clonal analysis revealed graded ability of ILC3-ILC1 subsets to convert into ILC1-like cells. When examined in humanized mice, ILC3 acquisition of ILC1 features showed tissue-dependency. In chromatin studies, Aiolos emerged as a nuclear factor that cooperates with Tbet to repress evolutionarily conserved regulatory elements active in ILC3s. The human intestine also exhibited an ILC3–ILC1 transitional population. We conclude that conversion of ILC3s to ILC1-like occurs in vivo in human tissues, and that tissue factors and Aiolos are crucial for this process.

Group 3 innate lymphoid cells continuously require the transcription factor GATA3 after commitment

Project description:GATA3 is indispensable for the development of all IL-7RÎ±-expressing innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) and maintenance of type 1 ILCs (ILC1s) and type 2 ILCs (ILC2s). However, the importance of low GATA3 expression in type 3 ILCs (ILC3s) is still elusive. Here, we report that GATA3 regulates homeostasis of ILC3s by controlling IL-7RÎ± expression. In addition, GATA3 is critical for the development of NKp46+ ILC3 subset partially through regulating the balance between T-bet and RORÎ³t. Genome-wide analyses indicate that while GATA3 positively regulates CCR6+ and NKp46+ ILC3 subset-specific genes in respective lineages, it negatively regulates CCR6+ ILC3-specific genes in NKp46+ ILC3s. Furthermore, GATA3 regulates IL-22 production in both CCR6+ and NKp46+ ILC3s. Thus, low GATA3 expression is critical for the development and function of ILC3 subsets. To identify GATA3 regulated genes in total ILC3s with RNA-Seq; To identify unique genes expressed by CCR6+ ILC3 or NKp46+ ILC3 and GATA3 regulated genes within these two ILC3 subsets with RNA-Seq; To identify GATA3 direct binding sites in ILC3s, ILC2s and Th2 cells with ChIP-Seq.

Group 3 innate lymphoid cells continuously require the transcription factor GATA3 after commitment

Project description:GATA3 is indispensable for the development of all IL-7Rα-expressing innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) and maintenance of type 1 ILCs (ILC1s) and type 2 ILCs (ILC2s). However, the importance of low GATA3 expression in type 3 ILCs (ILC3s) is still elusive. Here, we report that GATA3 regulates homeostasis of ILC3s by controlling IL-7Rα expression. In addition, GATA3 is critical for the development of NKp46+ ILC3 subset partially through regulating the balance between T-bet and RORγt. Genome-wide analyses indicate that while GATA3 positively regulates CCR6+ and NKp46+ ILC3 subset-specific genes in respective lineages, it negatively regulates CCR6+ ILC3-specific genes in NKp46+ ILC3s. Furthermore, GATA3 regulates IL-22 production in both CCR6+ and NKp46+ ILC3s. Thus, low GATA3 expression is critical for the development and function of ILC3 subsets.

scRNAseq of human blood, tonsil, lung and small intestine innate lymphoid cells

Project description:Group 1 innate lymphoid cells (ILC1s) are cytotoxic and interferon gamma-producing lymphocytes lacking antigen-specific receptors, which include ILC1s and natural killer (NK) cells. In mice, ILC1s differ from NK cells, as they develop independently of the NK-specifying transcription factor EOMES, while requiring the repressor ZFP683 (ZNF683 in humans) for tissue residency. Here we identify highly variable ILC1 subtypes across tissues through investigation of human ILC1 diversity by single-cell RNA sequencing and flow cytometry. The intestinal epithelium contained abundant mature EOMES− ILC1s expressing PRDM1 rather than ZNF683, alongside a few immature TCF7+PRDM1− ILC1s. Other tissues harbored NK cells expressing ZNF683 and EOMES transcripts; however, EOMES protein content was variable. These ZNF683+ NK cells are tissue-imprinted NK cells phenotypically resembling ILC1s. The tissue ILC1-NK spectrum also encompassed conventional NK cells and NK cells distinguished by PTGDS expression. These findings establish a foundation for evaluating phenotypic and functional changes within the NK-ILC1 spectrum in diseases.

Identification of human cytotoxic ILC3s

Project description:Human ILCs are classically categorized into five subsets; cytotoxic CD127-CD94+ NK cells and non-cytotoxic CD127+CD94-, ILC1s, ILC2s, ILC3s and LTi cells. Here, we identify a novel subset within the CD127+ ILC population, characterized by the expression of the cytotoxic marker CD94. These CD94+ ILCs strongly resemble conventional ILC3s in terms of phenotype, transcriptome and cytokine production, but are highly cytotoxic. IL-15 was unable to induce differentiation of CD94+ ILCs towards mature NK cells. Instead, CD94+ ILCs retained RORγt, CD127 and CD200R expression and produced IL-22 in response to IL-15. Culturing non-cytotoxic CD127+ ILC1s or ILC3s with IL-12 induced upregulation of CD94 and cytotoxic activity, effects that were not observed with IL-15 stimulation. Thus, human helper ILCs can acquire a cytotoxic program without differentiating into NK cells.

CD45RA+CD62L- ILCs represent a quiescent local reservoir for the generation of mature ILC in human tissues

Project description:Innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) are highly plastic and predominantly mucosal tissue-resident cells that contribute to both homeostasis and inflammation depending on the microenvironment. The recent discovery of naïve-like tissue-resident ILCs suggests an ILC differentiation process that is akin to naïve T cell differentiation. Delineating the naïve-like ILC heterogeneity and the transcriptional, epigenetic and functional mechanisms that underlie ILC differentiation in tissues is crucial for understanding ILC biology in health and disease. Here we show that CD62L distinguishes two subsets of naïve-like CD45RA+ ILCs in tonsil tissue. While both subsets contain uni- and multipotent precursors of ILC1/NK cells and ILC3, CD62L+ ILCs resemble bona fide naïve ILCs with metabolism reminiscent of naïve T cells, lacking transcriptional and epigenetic signatures of mature ILCs. CD62L- ILCs are epigenetically similar to, but transcriptionally distinct from CD62L+ naïve-like ILCs including transcripts of cytokine signaling and metabolic pathways related to mature ILCs. A similar population of CD62L- quiescent ILCs with preferential differentiation capacity towards IL-22-producing ILC3 accumulate in the inflamed mucosa of patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). These data suggest that naïve-like and quiescent ILCs are imprinted by their tissue microenvironment that poises their differentiation potential. Our findings identify restoration of homeostatic IL-22-producing ILC3 from CD62L- quiescent ILCs as a potential approach to improve tissue healing in IBD.

Transdifferentiation of tumor infiltrating innate lymphoid cells during progression of colorectal cancer

Project description:Innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) reside in mucosal surfaces to potentiate immune responses, sustain mucosal integrity and maintain tissue homeostasis. However, how tumor infiltrating ILCs modulate tumor development and progression is unclear. Here we profiled tumor infiltrating ILCs during colorectal cancer (CRC) progression by single-cell RNA sequencing. We identified six clusters of tumor infiltrating ILCs with unique features. ILC1s expressed inhibitory receptors and underwent inhibitory functional conversion at the late stage of CRC. ILC2s were classified into three subsets (called ILC2-A, -B, -C), ILC2-C subset could facilitate tumor progression. HS3ST1 and PD1 were highly expressed in ILC2s of late stage CRC tumors and deficiency of HS3ST1 or PD1 in ILC2s suppressed tumor growth. Moreover, ILC3s transdifferentiated into ILCregs during CRC progression and ILCregs promoted tumor growth. Of note, TGF- signaling initiated the conversion of ILC3s to ILCregs and blockade of TGF- signaling could disrupt the ILCreg transdifferentiation and inhibited tumor growth as well. Thus intervention of ILC conversions might be a potential strategy for CRC immunotherapy.

Differential c-Kit expression identifies two subsets of ILC2s with IL-17 producing capabilities that may contribute to IL-17 mediated pathologies

Project description:Group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) are linked to type 2 immune diseases but can also molecularly change phenotype and provide type 1 immunity towards pathogens. Here we identify an ILC2 subset which can convert into IL-17 producing NKp44‒ ILC3-like cells. c-Kit and CCR6 define this ILC2 subpopulation which exhibit ILC3 features, including RORγt, which enables the conversion into IL-17 producing cells in response to IL-1β and IL-23. We also report a novel but critical role for TGF-β in promoting the conversion of c-kit‒ ILC2s into RORγt expressing c-Kit+ ILC2s by inducing the upregulation of IL23R, CCR6 and KIT mRNA in these cells. This switch was dependent on RORγt and down-regulation of GATA-3. IL-4 was able to reverse this event supporting a role for this cytokine in maintaining ILC2 identity. Notably, this plasticity has physiological relevance as a subset of RORγt+ ILC2s express the skin homing receptor CCR10 and the frequencies of IL-17‒producing ILC3s are increased at the expense of ILC2s within the lesional skin of psoriatic patients compared to healthy individuals.
