Project description:Here we identify the c-kit+ CILP population which generates all ILC subsets including NK cells, and the CD25- ILC2-restricted Sca-1+ CILP. We mapped the transcriptional changes that occur in ILC progenitor commitment identifying new regulatory factors and provide a map for early ILC differentiation. Finally, we mapped the subsequent transcriptional changes that occur in c-kit+ CILP in absence of Id2 and Tcf7, key regulators downstream of Nfil3.

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.

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.

Project description:Generation of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells from pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) will enable advances in cancer immunotherapy. A detailed understanding of the effects of CARs on T cell differentiation from PSCs is important to this effort. The recently described artificial thymic organoid (ATO) system supports in vitro differentiation of PSCs to T cells. Unexpectedly, PSCs transduced with a CD19-targeted CAR resulted in diversion of T cell differentiation to the ILC2 lineage in ATOs. T cells and ILC2s are closely related lymphoid lineages which share certain developmental and transcriptional programs. Mechanistically, we show that antigen-independent CAR signaling during early lymphoid development was evident in ILC2-primed lymphoid precursors. We applied this understanding to rationally modulate CAR signaling strength through changes to CAR expression level, structure, or expression of cognate antigen and demonstrate that the T-versus-ILC lineage decision can be controlled in either direction, providing a framework for achieving normal CAR-T cell development from PSCs.

Project description:Innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) have emerged as essential players in the skin-associated immune system in health and inflammatory skin diseases. Their low numbers and lack of specific markers hampered extensive characterization and consequently resulted in limited knowledge of their protein expression. Here, we combined flow cytometry and state-of-the-art proteomics to comprehensively describe the proteins constitutively expressed by ILC2 and ILC3 subsets derived from healthy human skin and peripheral blood. We quantified 6666 proteins from skin ILC and identified 608 differentially expressed proteins in the investigated subsets. In addition to the current analyses, highlighting new functions of ILC, the ILC proteomic libraries and the proteomes of the ILC2 and ILC3 subsets will serve as valuable resources for future analyses of ILC function and are available at http://skin.science.

Project description:The zinc finger protein and SNAG domain transcription factor Gfi1b is highly expressed in hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) and in megakaryocytes (MKs). Deletion of Gfi1b in mice leads to a drastic expansion of both cell types, suggesting that Gfi1b controls their proliferation. Here we present evidence that Gfi1b exerts this control by modulating the Wnt/beta-catenin signaling pathway. We can show that Gfi1b binds to beta-catenin and is part of a larger complex that contains β-catenin co-factors. Gfi1b activates beta-catenin/TCF mediated transcription and is required for the activity of beta-catenin target gene promoter driven reporter genes in vivo. This is dependent of the ability of Gfi1b to recruit the histone modifying enzyme lysine demethylase 1 (LSD1) to β-catenin containing complexes. Moreover, LSD1 enhances the Gfi1b-mediated activation of beta-catenin/TCF dependent transcription. Both Gfi1b deficient HSCs and MKs show de-regulation of expression of many sets on Wnt/β-catenin target genes and Gfi1b and β-catenin co-occupy the promoters of many common target genes. Finally, activating the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway in Gfi1b deficient HSCs and MKs significantly reduces their expansion, which confirms that Gfi1b is a critical factor controlling the cellularity of HSCs and MKs and exerts this function by regulating the Wnt/β-catenin pathway in these cells.

Project description:The transcription factor Growth Factor Independence 1B (GFI1B) recruits Lysine Specific Demethylase 1A (LSD1/KDM1A) to stimulate gene programs relevant for megakaryocyte and platelet biology. Inherited pathogenic GFI1B variants result in thrombocytopenia and bleeding propensities with varying intensity. Whether these affect similar gene programs is unknow. Here we studied transcriptomic effects of four patient-derived GFI1B variants (GFI1BT174N,H181Y,R184P,Q287*) in MEG01 megakaryoblasts. Compared to normal GFI1B, each variant affected different gene programs with GFI1BQ287* uniquely failing to repress myeloid traits. In line with this, single cell RNA-sequencing of induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived megakaryocytes revealed a 4.5-fold decrease in the megakaryocyte/myeloid cell ratio in GFI1BQ287* versus normal conditions. Inhibiting the GFI1B-LSD1 interaction with small molecule GSK-LSD1 resulted in activation of myeloid genes in normal iPSC-derived megakaryocytes similar as observed for GFI1BQ287* iPSC-derived megakaryocytes. Thus, GFI1B and LSD1 facilitate gene programs relevant for megakaryopoiesis while simultaneously repressing programs that induce myeloid differentiation.

Project description:We have conducted a screen for factors that downregulate expression of the genes encoding the V(D)J recombinase (RAG1 and RAG2) during B cell development. We have identified the transcription factor Gfi1B as being one of the proteins capable of decreasing RAG transcription when overexpressed in Ableson transormed ProB cell lines. We have yet to determine whether the overexpression of Gfi1B downregulates the RAGs directly, or whether it initiates a signalling programme that results in RAG downregulation. We hypothesize that by comparing global gene expression patterns in cells that overexpress Gfi1B and those that do not, we can distinguish between these possibilities and additionally gain insight into the broader genetic program that may be influenced by Gfi1B during hematopoiesis. Abelson pro-B cells were infected with a retrovirus encoding Gfi1b fused to the estrogen receptor domain. Gfi1b expression was induced by adding tamoxifen to the culture medium for 12h. Three biological replicates of untreated and treated cells were analyzed.
