Single cell analysis of activated iNKT cells from murine epididymal adipose tissue and spleen

ABSTRACT: We show that iNKT cells undergo rapid and extensive transcriptional remodeling after activation with the lipid antigen αGalactosylceramide (αGalCer). A common transcriptional framework underpins the activation of heterogeneous iNKT cell populations, including NKT1, NKT2 and NKT17 cells. We show that regulatory iNKT cell populations, including iNKT cells from epididymal adipose tissue, undergo blunted activation and show reduced transcriptional remodeling after αGalCer. We find that regulatory iNKT cell populations are enriched for memory-like KLRG1+ and cMAF+ iNKT subsets, and express gene signatures associated with adaptive Tr1 cells. IL-10 producing NKT10 cells express cMAF, and show enrichment for a cMAF-associated gene network. We also show that NKT10 cells are also phenotypically similar to adaptive Tr1 cells and NKTFH cells.

A comparison of the transcriptional profiles of invariant NKT cells derived from Wild type and Eomes conditional knockout mice

Project description:Functional subsets of iNKT cells, NKT1, NKT2 and NKT17, have been reported to arise during the thymus to peripheral differentiation stages. The key transcription factors for NKT1, NKT2 and NKT17 development in the thymus have been identified as T-bet, Gata3 and Rorγt, respectively. In contrast, these iNKT cell subsets can also undergo further differentiation in the periphery. Eomesodermin (Eomes) is a T-box transcription factor with high homology to T-bet and is expressed by activated CD8+ T cells as well as in resting and activated NK cells. However, its role in invariant (i)NKT cells remains unknown. Here, we show the impact of Eomes on iNKT cells in the thymus and peripheral tissue using conditional knockout (Eomes-cKO) mice. Eomes regulates the differentiation of NKT1 cells in the thymus. In the peripheral tissue, Klrg1+ iNKT1 cells are generated in lung after vaccination with -GalCer-pulsed DCs (DC/Gal) as memory like iNKT cells. In the current study, we found that Eomes also regulates their differentiation into memory-like KLRG1+iNKT cells in the periphery.

RNA-Seq on wild-type and Ezh2 knock-out invariant natural killer T cells and CD44hi CD4+ T cells

Project description:Several subsets of NKT cells have been identified, including IFNγ-producing NKT1 cells, IL-4-producing NKT2 cells and IL-17-producing NKT17 cells. We sought to determine to the effect of loss of the polycomb repressive complex 2 protein Ezh2 on gene expression in NKT cells and CD44high CD4+ T cells from mice. Transcriptional profiles of iNKT cells from wild-type (WT) and Ezh2 KO iNKT mice were determined.

Transcriptome and Chromatin Landscape of iNKT Cells are Shaped by Subset Differentiation and Antigen Exposure [RNA-seq]

Project description:Invariant natural killer T cells (iNKT cells) differentiate into thymic NKT1, NKT2 and NKT17 subsets that are also peripheral. We determined if the gene programs associated with these thymic subsets were maintained in peripheral sites, the influence of tissue location, and if there were large-scale changes after antigen exposure. RNA-seq and ATAC-seq analyses showed that iNKT cells in any subset were similar, regardless of tissue location. Lung iNKT cell subsets shared the most distinct location-specific features, shared with other innate lymphocytes in the lung, possibly consistent with increased activation. After antigenic stimulation, iNKT cells underwent chromatin and transcription changes leading to two populations: one similar to follicular helper T cells and the other like NK cells. Phenotypic analysis indicated these changes were observed long-term, suggesting that iNKT cells gene programs are not fixed, but they are capable of chromatin remodeling after antigen to give rise to several new subsets.

Altered thymic differentiation and modulation of arthritis by invariant NKT cells expressing mutant ZAP70 [II]

Project description:Various subsets of invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cells with different cytokine productions develop in the mouse thymus, but the factors driving their differentiation remain unclear. Here we show that hypomorphic alleles of Zap70 or chemical inhibition of Zap70 catalysis lead to an increase of IFN-g-producing iNKT cells (NKT1 cells), suggesting NKT1 cells may require a lower TCR signal threshold. Zap70 mutant mice develop IL-17-dependent arthritis. iNKT cells and therapeutic induction of IFN-g secretion by activating iNKT cells are protective in this model, but the representation of IFNg versus IL-17 secreting iNKT cells in the joint change in favor of IL-17 producers as disease worsened. NKT1 cells are also present in the synovial fluid of arthritis patients, where they could be beneficial. Our data therefore suggest that TCR signal strength during thymic differentiation may influence not only IFNg production, but also the protective function of iNKT cells in arthritis.

Altered thymic NKT1 and NKT2 differentiation in murine haploidentical bone marrow transplantation with chronic GvHD

Project description:To investigate whether intermediate iNKT precursor cells were affected in GvHD mice along the differentiation journey toward mature effector cells, we performed scRNA-seq on thymic iNKT precursors from BMT mice with and without cGvHD and non-BMT mice. We identified Multiple early and late NKT1 precursor clusters and further explored the development of NKT1 under physiological as well as transplantation condition.

Global epigenetic stability of liver-resident invariant natural killer T cells in response to cues capable of inducing transcriptional re-programming

Project description:Unlike conventional CD4+ T cells, which are phenotypically and functionally plastic, invariant NKT (iNKT) cells generally exist in a terminally differentiated state. Although peripheral CD4+ T cells can acquire alternative epigenetic states in response to different cues, it remains unclear whether peripheral iNKT cells are epigenetically stable or maleable. Repetitive encounters of liver-resident iNKT cells (LiNKTs) with galactosylceramide (aGalCer)/CD1d-coated nanoparticles (NPs) can trigger their differentiation into a LiNKT cell subset (LiNKTR1) expressing a T regulatory type 1 (TR1)-like transcriptional signature. Here we use a broad range of omics tools to dissect the epigenetic underpinnings of the LiNKT-LiNKTR1 transdifferentiation process as compared to those underlying the T-conv-to-T-follicular helper (TFH) and TFH-to-TR1 differentiation pathways. We show that LiNKTR1 cell generation is partially associated with treatment induced hypo-methylation of gene bodies and regulatory elements of upregulated genes, in the absence of significant changes in chromatin exposure, deposition of expression-promoting histone marks, or removal of their repressive counterparts from bivalent regulatory elements. In contrast, the Tconv-TFH differentiation process involves extensive remodeling of the chromatin and the acquisition of a broad repertoire of epigenetic modifications that are then inherited by TFH cell-derived TR1 cell progeny. These results suggest that peripheral tissue-resident iNKT cells, unlike conventional T cells but like TFH cells, are epigenetically stable and that such stability contributes to their phenotypic and functional stability.

Gpx4 regulates iNKT cell homeostasis and function by preventing lipid peroxidation and ferroptosis

Project description:Invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cells are a group of innate like T cells that plays important roles in immune homeostasis and activation. We found that iNKT cells, compared to CD4+ T cells, have significantly higher levels of lipid peroxidation in both mice and humans. Proteomic analysis also demonstrated that iNKT cells express higher levels of Glutathione peroxidase 4 (Gpx4), a major antioxidant enzyme that reduces lipid peroxidation and prevents ferroptosis. T cell specific deletion of Gpx4 reduces iNKT cell population, most prominently the IFNg producing NKT1 subset. RNAseq analysis revealed IFNg signaling, cell cycle regulation, as well as mitochondrial function are perturbed by Gpx4 deletion in iNKT cells. Consistently, we detected impaired cytokine production, elevated cell proliferation and cell death, and accumulation of lipid peroxides and mitochondrial ROS in Gpx4 KO iNKT cells. Ferroptosis inhibitor, iron chelator, vitamin E and vitamin K2 can prevent ferroptosis induced by Gpx4 deficiency in iNKT cells and ameliorate the impaired function of iNKT cells due to Gpx4 inhibition. Lastly, vitamin E rescued iNKT cell population in Gpx4 KO mice. Altogether, our findings reveal the critical role of Gpx4 in regulating iNKT cell homeostasis and function, through controlling lipid peroxidation and ferroptosis.

CD1d-dependent immune suppression mediated by regulatory B cells through modulations of iNKT cells

Project description:Regulatory B cells (Breg) express high levels of CD1d that presents lipid antigens to invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cells. The function of CD1d in Breg biology and iNKT cell activity during inflammation remains unclear. Here we show, using chimeric mice, cell depletion and adoptive cell transfer, that CD1d-lipid presentation by Bregs induces iNKT cells to secret IFN-γ to contribute, partially, to the down-regulation of T helper (Th)1 and Th17 adaptive immune responses for ameliorating experimental arthritis. Mice lacking CD1d-expressing B cells develop exacerbated diseases compared to wild-type mice, and fail to respond to α-galactosylceramide treatment. Absence of lipid presentation by B cells causes altered activation of iNKT cells, with disruption of regulatory pathways including those involved in metabolism and cytokine responses. Thus, we identify an IL-10-independent mechanism by which Bregs restrain excessive inflammation via lipid presentation.
