A circadian clock is essential for homeostasis of group 3 innate lymphoid cells in the gut

ABSTRACT: Interleukin (IL)-2 is a pleiotropic cytokine that is necessary to prevent chronic inflammation in the gastrointestinal tract. The protective effects of IL-2 involve the generation, maintenance and function of regulatory T cells (Tregs), and low-dose IL-2 has emerged as a potential therapeutic strategy in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients. However, the cellular and molecular pathways that control the production of IL-2 in the context of intestinal health are undefined. Here we identify that IL-2 is acutely required to maintain Tregs and immunologic homeostasis throughout the gastrointestinal tract. Strikingly, lineage-specific deletion of IL-2 in T cells could recapitulate these phenotypes in the large intestine, but not in the small intestine. Unbiased analyses revealed that group 3 innate lymphoid cells (ILC3) are the dominant cellular source of IL-2 in the small intestine, which is selectively induced by IL-1β. Macrophages produce IL-1β in the small intestine and activation of this pathway involves MyD88- and Nod2-dependent sensing of the microbiota. Loss-of-function studies defined that ILC3-derived IL-2 is essential to maintain Tregs, immunologic homeostasis and oral tolerance to dietary antigens uniquely in the small intestine. Furthermore, ILC3 production of IL-2 was significantly reduced in the small intestine of Crohn’s disease patients, and this correlated with diminished Tregs. Collectively, these results reveal a previously unappreciated pathway whereby a microbiota- and IL-1β-dependent axis promotes ILC3 production of IL-2 to orchestrate immune regulation in the small intestine.

Innate lymphoid cells support regulatory T cells in the intestine through interleukin-2

Complementarity and redundancy of IL-22-producing innate lymphoid cells

Project description:Homeostasis of the gut microbiota is pivotal to the survival of the host. Intestinal T cells and Innate Lymphoid cells (ILCs) control the composition of the microbiota and respond to its perturbations. Interleukin 22 (IL-22) plays a pivotal role in the immune control of gut commensal and pathogenic bacteria and is secreted by a heterogeneous population of intestinal T cells, NCR- ILC3 and NCR+ILC3. Expression of NCR by ILC3 is believed to define an irreversible effector ILC3 end-state fate in which these cells are key to control of bacterial infection via their production of IL-22. Here we identify the core transcriptional signature that drives the differentiation of NCR- ILC3 into NCR+ ILC3 and reveal that NCR+ILC3 exhibit more plasticity than originally thought, as NCR+ ILC3 can revert to NCR- ILC3. Contrary to the prevailing understanding of NCR+ ILC3 genesis and function, in vivo analyses of mice conditionally deleted of the key ILC3 genes Stat3, Il22, Tbet and Mcl1 demonstrated that NCR+ ILC3 were not essential for the control of colonic infections in the presence of T cells. However, NCR+ ILC3 were mandatory for homeostasis of the caecum. Our data identify that the interplay of intestinal T cells and ILC3 results in robust complementary fail-safe mechanisms that ensure gut homeostasis.

IL-2Rβ- and CD103-dependent genes in regulatory T cells in the gut mucosa

Project description:This study determined the genes that are differentially expressed when regulatory T cells (Tregs) were isolated from the lamina propria of the small and large intestine from mice with impaired IL-2Rβ signaling (designated Y3) or impaired IL-2Rβ signaling and lack of CD103 expression (designated Y3/CD103-/-) when compared to Tregs from WT mice. 204 unique annotated mRNAs were differentially expressed by ≥1.5 fold between these 3 groups (Fig. 6B). Very few mRNAs were uniquely up or down regulated in relationship to impaired IL-2Rβ signaling or the combination of impaired IL-2Rβ signaling and lack of CD103 expression. Thus, lack of CD103 does not obviously regulated signaling in Tregs in the gut mucosa and most differentially expressed genes were due to impaired IL_2Rβ signaling. Gene enrichment analysis of these differentially expressed genes identified 4 major enrichment groups (EG) are: EG1, Cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction and the JAK-STAT signaling pathway; EG2, regulation of lymphocyte activation and proliferation; EG3, regulation of cell death and the caspase pathway in apoptosis; and EG4, transcription. Mouse regulatory T cells (Tregs) cells were FACS purified based on expression of red fluorescent protein linked to the Foxp3 gene. These cells were obtained from the lamina propria of the small and large intestine from WT, Y3, and Y3/CD103-/- mice. Total RNA was prepared and processed to probe Affymetrix mouse Gene ST2.0 arrays.

Rapidly induced fucosylation of intestinal epithelium sustains host-commensal symbiosis during sickness.

Project description:Systemic infection induces conserved physiological responses that include both resistance and ‘tolerance of infection’ mechanisms. Among these responses, temporary anorexia associated with an infection is often beneficial. It poses, however, a problem for the trillions of microbes residing in the gastrointestinal tract, as they also experience reduced substrate availability. We hypothesized that under anorectic conditions caused by infection, the host might activate protective mechanisms to support the gut microbiota during the acute phase of the disease. Here, we report that systemic exposure to Toll-like receptor (TLR) ligands causes rapid α1,2-fucosylation of the small intestine epithelial cells (IEC). The process requires sensing of TLR agonists and production of IL-23 by dendritic cells, activation of innate lymphoid cells and expression of α1,2-Fucosyltransferase-2 (Fut2) by IL-22-stimulated IECs. Fucosylated proteins are shed into the lumen and fucose is utilized by microbiota, as shown using reporter bacteria and by transcriptional profiling of the gut microbiome. Fucosylation also reduces the expression of bacterial virulence genes within the commensal gut microbiome and improves host tolerance of the mild pathogen Citrobacter rodentium. Thus, rapid IEC fucosylation appears to be a protective mechanism that utilizes the host’s resources to maintain host-microbial interactions during pathogen-induced stress. RNA-Seq analysis of the murine gut microbiome following LPS exposure. Fut2-/- (B6.129X1-Fut2tm1Sdo/J) mice were backcrossed greater than 7 generations to BALB/c. Fut2-/- (KO) and Fut2+/- (Het) animals were analyzed.

TL1A is a central regulator of group 3 innate lymphoid cell function in colitis

Project description:Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) results from a dysregulated interaction between the microbiota and a genetically susceptible host. Genetic studies have linked TNFSF15 polymorphisms and its protein TNF-like ligand 1A (TL1A) with IBD, but the functional role of TL1A in linking tissue homeostasis and intestinal inflammation is not known. Here, using cell-specific genetic deletion models, we report an essential role for CX3CR1+ mononuclear phagocyte (MNP)-derived TL1A, which is induced by adherent IBD-associated microbiota, in regulating group 3 innate lymphoid cell (ILC3) production of IL-22 and mucosal healing in acute colitis. However, in contrast to this protective role in acute colitis, TL1A-dependent expression of OX40L in MHCII+ ILC3 during colitis leads to co-stimulation of antigen-specific T cells and is required for chronic T cell colitis. These results identify a new role for ILC3 in regulating intestinal T cells and reveal a central role for TL1A in regulating ILC3 barrier immunity during colitis.

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.

Gene expression analysis of IL-17 induced mice small intestinal smooth muscle strips with or without 6-shogaol.

Project description:The etiology of post-inflammatory gastrointestinal (GI) motility dysfunction, after resolution of acute symptoms of inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) and intestinal infection, is largely unknown. Here, using an established mouse model of experimental enteritis, we show that enhancement of smooth muscle cell (SMC) contraction by interleukin (IL)-17A may be involved in postinflammatory GI hypermotility. To examine the effect of IL-17 in the small intestinal smooth muscle, we used whole genome microarray expression profiling to find out the genes which respond to IL-17 stimulus. The smooth muscle strips were peeled off from mouse small intestine and incubated 24h with or without IL-17. And we also examined the effect of 6-shogaol, which is one of the ingredients of Japanese traditional medicine for intestinal mortor disorder, Daikenchuto, in IL-17 stimulated small intestinal smooth muscle strip. The smooth muscle strips were peeled off from mice small intestine and incubated in the culture media for 24h with or without IL-17. A part of IL-17 stimulated strips were co-incubated with 6-shogaol. Six independent experiments were performed.
