Glucocorticoids inhibit human hematopoietic stem cell differentiation toward a common ILC precursor

ABSTRACT: Background: Innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) comprise cytotoxic NK cells and “helper” ILCs (hILCs). Human hILC development is less characterized as compared to NK cells, although all ILCs are developmentally related. It has been reported that the immunosuppressive drugs glucocorticoids (GCs) regulate ILCs function, but whether they control ILCs differentiation from hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) is unknown. Objective: We sought to analyze the effect of GCs on ILC development from HSCs. Methods: We exploited an in vitro system to generate and expand from peripheral blood (PB) HSCs a multipotent CD56+ ILC precursor able to differentiate into NK cells, ILC1s and ILC3s. We also analyzed ex vivo, at different time points, the PB of allogeneic HSC transplantation (HSCT) recipients who were or were not treated with GCs and compared ILC subset reconstitution. Results: We show that, in vitro, GCs favor the generation of NK cells from myeloid precursors, while they strongly impair lymphoid development. In support to these data, HSCT recipients who had been treated with GCs display a lower number of circulating hILCs, including the ILCP previously identified as a systemic substrate for tissue ILC differentiation. Conclusions: GCs impair the development of the CD117+ ILCP from CD34+ HSCs, while they do not affect the further steps of ILCP differentiation towards NK cells and hILC subsets. This reflects an association of GC treatment with a marked reduction of circulating hILCs in the recipients of HSCT.

Systemic human ILC precursors provide a substrate for tissue ILC differentiation

Project description:Innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) represent innate versions of T helper and cytotoxic T cells that differentiate from committed ILC precursors (ILCP). Still, how ILCP relate to mature tissue-resident ILCs remains unclear. We identify ILCP that are present in the blood and all tested lymphoid and non-lymphoid human tissues. Human ILCP fail to express the signature transcription factors (TF) and cytokine outputs of mature NK cells and ILCs but are epigenetically poised to do so. Human ILCP robustly generate all ILC subsets in vitro and in vivo. While human ILCP express RAR related orphan receptor C (RORC), circulating ILCP can be found in RORC-deficient patients that retain potential for EOMES+ NK cells, T-BET+ ILC1, GATA-3+ ILC2 and for IL-22+ but not for IL-17A+ ILC3. We propose a model of tissue ILC differentiation (‘ILC-poiesis’) whereby diverse ILC subsets are generated in situ from ILCP in response to environmental stressors, inflammation and infection.

Systemic human ILC precursors provide a substrate for tissue ILC differentiation

Project description:Innate lymphoid cells (ILC) represent innate versions of T helper and cytotoxic T cells that differentiate from committed ILC precursors (ILCP). Still, how ILCP relate to mature tissue-resident ILCs remains unclear. We observed that a population of CD117+ ILC from peripheral blood (PB) of healthy donors does not represent any conical ILC subset, but expressed marker (CD117) commonly expressed by hemato-lymphoid progenitors. We therefore hypothesized PB CD117+ ILC might include uncommitted lymphoid precursors. In order to further understand the identity of PB CD117+ ILC, we profiled the transcriptome of highly purified circulating CD117+ ILC compared to CD34+ HSC, the latter representing immature hematopoietic progenitors with multi-lineage potential. Clear differences in gene expression profiles emerged, with a large cluster of 1540 genes expressed at substantially higher levels in CD117+ ILC. In contrast, CD34+ HSC cells highly expressed genes involved in the broad development of diverse hematopoietic lineages. Compared to HSC, CD117+ ILC express high levels of TF that have been shown to be essential for murine ILC development and we did not detect transcripts characteristic of T and B cells development. Transcriptomic analysis suggested that CD117+ ILC represent lymphoid-biased progenitors carrying a TF expression profile resembling a multi-potent ILC precursor (ILCP).

Intestinal ILC progenitors differentially generate ILC subsets dependent on the recipient tissue microenvironment

Project description:Innate lymphoid cells (ILC) are critical in maintaining tissue homeostasis, and during infection and inflammation. Using combinatorial reporter mice we demonstrate the existence of rare, small intestinal lamina propria (siLP)- resident, ILC progenitors (siLP-ILCP) in adult mice. Transfer of siLP-ILCP into recipients generated ILC1/NK cells, ILC2 and ILC3 within the siLP microenvironment, but only ILC1/NK cells in the liver, lung and spleen. Single cell gene expression analysis confirmed the phenotype of the siLP-ILCPs and ILC progeny and indicated that siLP-ILCP-derived ILC1/NK cells from the siLP have a more tissue-resident phenotype than those from the lungs. Thus, in contrast to bone marrow-derived ILCPs, a local pool of siLP-ILCP can contribute to pan-ILC production in the intestinal microenvironment but has restricted potential in other tissues. Therefore, ILCP potential is influenced by both tissue of origin and the microenvironment during development. This may provide additional flexibility during the tuning of immune reactions.

Clarification of human blood ILC subtype interrelatedness and discovery of amphiregulin production by human NK cells shed light on HIV-1 pathogenesis

Project description:Human blood innate lymphoid cells (ILCs), which include ILCs and natural killer (NK) cells, derive from a common CD117+ILC precursor (ILCP). Yet, the relationship among the ILC subsets remains unclear. Bulk and single cell RNA-Seq and ATAC-Seq showed that blood ILC subsets cluster into ILC2s, ILCPs, a mixed cluster of CD56dim and CD56– NK cells, and a separate cluster of CD56hiNK cells that shares features with both ILCs and CD56dim/–NK cells. In surprising contrast to mice, tissue repair protein amphiregulin (AREG) was produced by human NK cells, with even higher levels in CD56hiNK cells than in ILCs. AREG expression in NK cells was driven by TCF7/WNT signaling and inhibited by TGFB1, a cytokine elevated in HIV-1+ people. Knockout of RUNX3, a WNT antagonist acting downstream of TGFB1, increased AREG production. Consistent with these findings, AREG+NK cells were decreased in people living with HIV-1. Additionally, functionally defective CD56–NK cells expanded in HIV-1+ people, in inverse correlation with CD56dimNK cells, ILCs, and CD4+T cells. Experiments in tissue culture and in humanized mice showed that CD56–NK cells derive from the epigenetically similar CD56dimNK cells, and that stimulation of MTOR by CD4+T cells or exogenous IL-2 prevents their expansion. These findings clarify how ILC subsets are related to each other and provide insight into how HIV-1 infection disrupts ILC homeostasis and contributes to pathology

Gene expression profiling of small intestine (SI) NKp46+RORgt+ and NKp46+RORgt- Innate Lymphoid Cells (ILCs)

Project description:The aim of this study was to analyze the global transcriptional profiles of small intestine (SI) Innate Lymphoid Cells (ILCs) expressing the NK cell marker NKp46. Based on differential expression of the RORgt transcription factor SI NKp46+ ILCs can be divided in NKp46+RORgt- and NKp46+RORgt+ cells. While NKp46+RORgt- cells produce IFN-g, like conventional Natural Killer (NK) cells, NKp46+RORgt+ cells secrete IL-22, like Lymphoid Tissue inducer (LTi) cells. We compared the global transcriptional profiles of both NKp46+RORgt- and NKp46+RORgt+ cells to conventional splenic NK cells and to SI NKp46-RORgt+ cells, which contain adult LTi cells. By following this approach, we showed that SI NKp46+RORγt- ILCs correspond to SI NK cells. We also identified a transcriptional program conserved in adult SI NKp46+RORγt+, NKp46-RORγt+ ILCs and fetal LTi. The various ILC cell populations analyzed in this study were isolated from C57BL/6 RORc(gt)+/GFP reporter mice. SI NKp46+RORγt- (NKp46+GFP-) cells, SI NKp46+RORγt+ cells (NKp46+GFPlow and NKp46+GFPhigh cells) and NKp46-RORγt+ ILCs, including adult LTi cells , were sorted by flow cytometry from CD3- lamina propria cells of small intestine (SI) of RORc(γt)+/GFP reporter mice . Splenic NKp46+RORγt- (NKp46+GFP-) cells were also sorted as the reference for conventional NK cells. Two replicates of each populations were produced and analyzed.

Identification and characterization of regenerative innate lymphoid cells from pluripotent stem cells [WT_ILC/R9_iILC_SmartSeq2]

Project description:We identified that synergistic and inducible expression of Runx1 and Hoxa9 in pluripotent stem cells gave rise to engraftable iHPC capable of developing into mature ILCs in the Rag2-/-Il2rg-/- recipients. We performed single-cell RNA-seq on the entire regenerative CD45.2+GFP+Lin-CD127+ R9-ILC population from the intestine of Rag2-/-Il2rg-/- recipient mice and the CD45.2+Lin-CD127+ WT-ILC population from the intestine of wild type mice (C57BL/6, CD45.2). Single-cell transcriptome illustrated the transcriptome landscape of the R9-ILCs and wild type ILCs including ILC1, ILC2 and ILC3.

Identification of aceNKPs, a committed common progenitor of the ILC1 and NK cell continuum

Project description:The development of innate lymphoid cell (ILC) transcription factor reporter mice has shown a previously unexpected complexity in ILC haematopoiesis. Using novel polychromic mice to achieve higher phenotypic resolution we have characterised bone marrow progenitors that are committed to the group 1 ILC lineage. These common ILC1/NK progenitors, which we call ‘aceNKPs’, are defined as lineage–Id2+IL-7Ra+CD25–a4b7–NKG2A/C/E+Bcl11b–. In vitro, aceNKPs differentiate into group 1 ILCs, including NK-like cells that express Eomes without the requirement for IL-15, and produce IFN-g and perforin upon IL-15 stimulation. Following reconstitution of Rag2–/–Il2rg–/– hosts, aceNKPs give rise to a spectrum of mature ILC1/NK cells (regardless of their tissue location) that cannot be clearly segregated into the traditional ILC1 and NK subsets, suggesting that group 1 ILCs constitute a dynamic continuum of ILCs that can develop from a common progenitor. In addition, aceNKP-derived ILC1/NK cells effectively ameliorate tumour burden in a model of lung metastasis where they acquired a cytotoxic NK cell phenotype. Our results identify the primary ILC1/NK progenitor that lacks ILC2 or ILC3 potential and is strictly committed to ILC1/NK cell production irrespective of tissue homing.

Identification and characterization of regenerative innate lymphoid cells from pluripotent stem cells [R9_DAY7.5_10X_genomics]

Project description:We identified that synergistic and inducible expression of Runx1 and Hoxa9 in pluripotent stem cells gave rise to engraftable iHPC capable of developing into mature ILCs in the Rag2-/-Il2rg-/- recipients. The regenerative ILCs were detected in multiple tissues including intestine, lung, liver, spleen and thymus. We performed single cell RNA-seq on the sorted GFP+CD45.2+Lin- cells from the bone marrow of recipients at day 7.5 after iHPC transplantation. Single-cell transcriptome illustrated the existence of regenerative ILC-related progenitors including iLP, iILCP, iILC1/3P and iILC2P, and the cellular trajectory of regenerative ILCs development in vivo was closely resembles the natural ILCs development.

Checkpoint Inhibitors Modulate Plasticity of Innate Lymphoid Cells in Peripheral Blood of Patients with Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Project description:Introduction: The role of innate lymphoid cells (ILC) in cancer and specifically in the context of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is not well understood. Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) have been approved for treatment of patients with HCC. The effect of ICI on ILCs has not been explored. Methods: We studied ILCs in PBMCs of 51 patients with HCC at baseline and after treatment with ICI. Flow cytometry was used to study ILC composition. Single-cell RNA-sequencing using a targeted panel of 405 immune-related genes was used to characterize the transcriptomic profiles as well as cellular trajectory of ILCs before and after ICI therapy. Intracellular cytokine staining was used to validate ILC function. Data from large patient cohorts were used to predict association with survival. Results: Characterization of the ILC subgroups in PBMCs of HCC patients revealed a significant increase in ILC1 and a decrease in ILC3 frequencies. Single cell RNA-sequencing identified a subgroup of NK-like ILCs which expressed cytotoxicity markers as well as NKp80/KLRF1. This KLRF1high-NK-like population showed low abundance in patients with HCC and was enhanced after combined anti-CTLA-4 and anti-PD-1 immunotherapy. Trajectory analysis placed this population in between ILC1 and ILC3s. The transcriptomic signature of KLRF1high NK-like ILCs was associated with better progression-free survival in HCC cohorts. Conclusions: We present a previously unknown effect of HCC tumors and ICIs on the composition and plasticity of ILCs in PBMCs. We identified a cytotoxic KLRF1high-NK-like subgroup which was associated with better survival, absent in untreated HCC patients, and enhanced upon ICI immunotherapy. Thus, ILCs from PBMC can be used to study changes in the innate immune system under immunotherapy.
