Bcl6 is a subset defining transcription factor of Lymphoid Tissue inducer-like ILC3

ABSTRACT: Innate lymphoid cells (ILC) are tissue-resident effector cells with important roles in tissue homeostasis, protective immunity and inflammatory disease. Current nomenclature divides ILC into subsets based on the expression of master transcription factors and effector cytokine programs. In mucosal barrier tissues, group 3 ILC (ILC3) have been defined by the expression of the master transcription factor RORgt. However, ILC3 can be further subdivided into two major subsets – natural cytotoxicity receptor-expressing (NCR+) ILC3 and lymphoid tissue inducer (LTi)-like ILC3 which share type 3 effector modules but also exhibit significant ontological, transcriptional, phenotypic and functional heterogeneity. In particular, LTi-like ILC3 exhibit effector functions not typically associated with other RORgt-expressing lymphocytes, provoking the hypothesis that other master transcription factors may contribute to LTi-like ILC3 biology. Here we identify Bcl6 as an LTi-like ILC3 associated transcription factor in both mice and humans. Deletion of Bcl6 led to dysregulation of the LTi-like ILC3 transcriptional program and changes to subset-specific phenotypic markers and effector functions. Strikingly, loss of Bcl6 enhanced expression of the type 3 effector cytokines IL-17A and IL-17F in LTi-like ILC3, which was found to be in part dependent upon the commensal microbiota. Together these findings implicate Bcl6 as an ILC3 subset-defining transcription factor and part of a network that confers phenotype and function on LTi-like ILC3. Our study further provides a missing link to redefine analogous immune modules in innate and adaptive lymphocyte responses.

Gene expression analysis of CD4+ and CD4- ILC1 subsets by RNAseq

Project description:Innate lymphoid cell (ILC) subsets that mirror helper T cells in their effector cytokine profiles have recently emerged as central players in both homeostatic and inflammatory conditions. Like their Th1, Th2 and Th17/Th22 helper T cell counterparts, ILC subsets are categorized based on their expression of specific transcription factors and effector cytokines: group 1 ILC (ILC1) express T-bet and IFN-Î³; group 2 ILC (ILC2) express GATA-3 and type 2 effector cytokines such as IL-13 and IL-5; and group 3 ILC (ILC3) express RORgt and the cytokines IL-22 and/or IL-17. Under this nomenclature, natural killer (NK) cells and lymphoid tissue inducers (LTi) are considered ILC1 and ILC3, respectively. ILC1 contain both CD4+ and CD4- populations, but whether this phenotypic characteristic reflects functional differences between these two populations is unknown. These studies examine the gene expression profiles of CD4+ vs CD4- ILC1 in a cohort of healthy control subjects. ILC subsets were isolated from the peripheral blood of healthy control subjects. cDNA was isolated and amplified from sorted populations, and gene expression was analyzed by RNAseq

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.

Cell autonomous expression of Bcl6 is required to maintain lineage identity of mouse CCR6+ ILC3s

Project description:Innate lymphoid cells (ILC) are similar to T helper (Th) cells in expression of cytokines and transcription factors. For example, RORγt is the lineage-specific transcription factor for both ILC3 and Th17 cells. However, the ILC counterpart for BCL6-expressing T follicular helper (Tfh) cells has not been defined. Here, we report that in the ILC compartment, BCL6 is selectively co-expressed with not only CXCR5, but also RORγt and CCR6 in ILC3 from multiple tissues. BCL6-deficient ILC3 produce enhanced levels of IL-17A and IL-22. More importantly, phenotypic and single-cell ATAC-seq analysis show that absence of BCL6 in mature ILC3 increases the numbers of ILC1 and transitional cells co-expressing ILC3 and ILC1 marker genes. A lineage-tracing experiment further reveals BCL6+ ILC3 to ILC1 trans-differentiation under steady state. Lastly, microbiota promote BCL6 expression in colonic CCR6+ ILC3, and thus reinforce their stability. Collectively, our data have demonstrated that CCR6+ ILC3 have both Th17 and Tfh programs and that BCL6 expression in these cells functions to maintain their lineage identity.

Innate lymphoid cell development requires TOX-dependent generation of a common ILC progenitor

Project description:Subtypes of innate lymphoid cells (ILC), defined by effector function and transcription factor expression, have recently been identified. In the adult, ILC derive from common lymphoid progenitors in bone marrow, although transcriptional regulation of the developmental pathways involved remains poorly defined. TOX is required for development of lymphoid tissue inducer cells, a type of ILC3 required for lymph node organogenesis, and NK cells, a type of ILC1. We show here that production of multiple ILC lineages requires TOX, as a result of TOX-dependent development of common ILC progenitors. Comparative transcriptome analysis demonstrated failure to induce various aspects of the ILC gene program in the absence of TOX, implicating this nuclear factor as a key early determinant of ILC lineage specification.

Differential Expression of the Transcription Factor GATA3 Specifies Lineage and Functions of Innate Lymphoid Cells

Project description:Lymphoid tissue inducer (LTi) cells are regarded as a subset of innate lymphoid cells (ILCs). However, these cells are not derived from the ILC common progenitor, which generates other ILC subsets and is defined by the expression of the transcription factor PLZF. Here we examined transcription factor(s) determining the fate of LTi progenitor versus non-LTi ILC progenitor. Conditional deletion of Gata3 resulted in the loss of PLZF+ non-LTi progenitors but not the LTi progenitors that expressed the transcription factor RORγt. Consistently, PLZF+ non-LTi progenitors expressed high amounts of GATA3 whereas GATA3 expression was low in RORγt+ LTi progenitors. The generation of both progenitors required the transcriptional regulator Id2, which defines the common helper-like innate lymphoid progenitor, but not cytokine signaling. Nevertheless, low GATA3 expression was necessary for the generation of functionally mature LTi cells. Thus, differential expression of GATA3 determines the fates and functions of distinct ILC progenitors.

Single cell analysis defines the divergence between the innate lymphoid cell and lymphoid tissue inducer lineages

Project description:The precise lineage relationships between innate lymphoid cells (ILC) and the lymphoid tissue inducer (LTi) are poorly understood. Using single-cell multiplex transcriptional analysis of 100 lymphoid genes and single-cell cultures of fetal liver precursor cells, we identified the common proximal precursor to these lineages and showed that its bifurcation was precisely marked by the differential induction of the transcription factors PLZF and TCF1. Acquisition of individual ILC1/2/3-specific effector programs was initiated later, at the common ILC precursor (ILCP) stage, by transient expression of mixed ILC1/2/3 transcriptional patterns whereas, in contrast, LTi development did not go through multilineage priming. These findings provide novel insights into divergent mechanisms of ILC and LTi lineage differentiation and establish a high-resolution map of their development.
