Prolonged T–DC macro-clustering in lymph nodes initiates site-specific Th2 differentiation

ABSTRACT: T helper 2 (Th2) responses protect against pathogens while also driving allergic inflammation, yet how large-scale Th2 responses are generated in tissue context remains unclear. Here, we used quantitative imaging to investigate early Th2 differentiation within lymph nodes (LNs) following cutaneous allergen administration. Contrary to current models, we observed extensive activation and ‘macro-clustering’ of early Th2 cells with migratory type-2 dendritic cells (cDC2s) generating specialized Th2-promoting microenvironments. Macro-clustering was integrin mediated and promoted localized cytokine exchange among T cells to reinforce differentiation, which contrasted behavior during Th1 responses. Unexpectedly, formation of Th2 macro-clusters was dependent on the site of skin sensitization. Differences between sites were driven by divergent activation states of migratory cDC2 from different dermal tissues, with enhanced costimulatory molecule expression by cDC2 in Th2-generating LNs promoting prolonged T cell activation, macro-clustering, and cytokine sensing. Thus, generation of dedicated Th2 priming microenvironments through enhanced costimulatory molecule signaling initiates Th2 responses in vivo and occurs in a skin site-specific manner.

Determine MARCH1-dependent molecular differences in dendritic cells that carry allergen from the lungs to the draining lymph nodes

Project description:MARCH1-/- mice have a deficit in TH2 cell development in the mediastinal LN to HDM allergens. Pulmonary DCs that capture allergens and migrate to mediastinal lymph node have been implicated in driving TH2 cell polarization. We then investigated whether MARCH1 is involved in transcriptional reprograming of migratory DCs, which has been suggested to condition the DCs to drive TH2 cell development. To do this, we performed single cell RNA sequencing through the 10X Chromium platform of allergen-carrying WT or MARCH1-/- DCs in the LNs of mice.

Progenitors of distinct lineages shape the diversity of mature type 2 conventional dendritic cells.

Project description:Conventional Dendritic Cells (cDC) are antigen-presenting cells comprising cDC1 and cDC2 subsets, responsible for priming naïve CD8+ and CD4+ T cells, respectively. Recent studies have unveiled cDC2 heterogeneity and identified various cDC2 progenitors beyond the common DC progenitor (CDP), hinting at distinct cDC2 lineages. By generating Cd300ciCre-hCD2R26tdTomato reporter mice, we identified a bone marrow pro-cDC2 progenitor exclusively generating cDC2 in vitro and in vivo. Single-cell analyses and multiparametric flow cytometry demonstrated that pro-cDC2 encompass myeloid-derived pre-cDC2 and lymphoid-derived pDC-like precursors differentiating into a transcriptionally convergent cDC2 phenotype. Cd300c-traced cDC2 had distinct transcriptomic profiles, phenotypes, and tissue distributions compared to Ms4a3CreR26tdTomato lineage-traced DC3, a monocyte-DC progenitor-derived subset that bypasses CDP. Mice with reduced Cd300c-traced cDC2 showed impaired humoral responses to a blood-borne antigen. We conclude that progenitors of distinct lineages shape the diversity of mature cDC2 cells across tissues. Thus, ontogenesis may impact tissue immune responses.

A chemokine trail laid down by migratory dendritic cells directs antigen-presenting monocytes into draining lymph nodes

Project description:Antigen presenting dendritic cells (DCs) and monocytes capture and transport antigens from barrier tissues for presentation to antigen-specific T cells in the draining-lymph nodes (LNs). While DCs enter LNs through afferent lymphatics in a CCR7-dependent manner, how exactly antigen-carrying monocytes reach LNs is less clear since monocytes do not express CCR7 and can also enter LNs via the bloodstream. In steady state, and following injection of several PAMPs, scRNA-seq data on LN mononuclear phagocytes identified LN resident versus migratory type 1 and type 2 conventional (c)DCs despite downregulation of DC subset-defining transcripts, such as Xcr1, Clec9a, H2-Ab1, Sirpa, and Clec10a on migratory cDCs. Migratory cDCs gained expression of transcripts controlling cellular migration such as Ccr7, Ccl17, Ccl22, and Ccl5, while migratory monocytes expressed Ccr5 without Ccr7. Using two tracking methods and a gating strategy that clearly distinguishes migratory CD88hiCD26lo monocytes from CD88-CD26hi cDCs, we found that both captured antigens in the lung and migrated to lung-draining LNs. Using global and mixed-chimeric Ccl5-, Ccr2-, Ccr5-, Ccr7-, and Batf3-deficient mice, we found that CCR5+ monocytes follow CCL5-secreting migratory cDCs to reach the draining LN via lymphatic vessels. In a model of asthma, such recruited monocytes regulated the induction of type 2 immunity. Overall, our data suggest that CCL5-secreting migratory cDCs lay down the chemokine trail for CCR5+ antigen-presenting monocytes to reach draining lymph nodes and regulate adaptive immunity.

Analysis of classical and migratory DC from the skin draining LNs of Flt3L treated mice and comparison to LPS treated DC from skin draining LN and peritoneal macrophages

Project description:Analysis of the differential transcriptome of DC derived from tissue vs. LN origin. The overall hypothesis is these data would reveal how migratory DC may be differently programmed from classical DC and might also suggest difference within migratory DC subsets relating to function. RNA obtained from migratory DC subsets and classical CD8a DC isolated by flow cytometry sorting from skin draining LNs of Flt3L treated mice or LPS treated mice

Ablation of cDC2 development by triple mutations within the Zeb2 enhancer

Project description:The divergence of the common dendritic cell progenitor (CDP) into the conventional type 1 and type 2 dendritic cell (cDC1 and cDC2, respectively) lineages is poorly understood. Some transcription factors act in the commitment of already specified progenitors-such as BATF3, which stabilizes Irf8 autoactivation at the +32 kb Irf8 enhancer-but the mechanisms controlling the initial divergence of CDPs remain unknown. Here we report the transcriptional basis of CDP divergence and describe the first requirements for pre-cDC2 specification. Genetic epistasis analysis suggested that Nfil3 acts upstream of Id2, Batf3 and Zeb2 in cDC1 development but did not reveal its mechanism or targets. Analysis of newly generated NFIL3 reporter mice showed extremely transient NFIL3 expression during cDC1 specification. CUT&RUN and chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by sequencing identified endogenous NFIL3 binding in the -165 kb Zeb2 enhancer at three sites that also bind the CCAAT-enhancer-binding proteins C/EBPα and C/EBPβ. In vivo mutational analysis using CRISPR-Cas9 targeting showed that these NFIL3-C/EBP sites are functionally redundant, with C/EBPs supporting and NFIL3 repressing Zeb2 expression at these sites. A triple mutation of all three NFIL3-C/EBP sites ablated Zeb2 expression in myeloid, but not lymphoid progenitors, causing the complete loss of pre-cDC2 specification and mature cDC2 development in vivo. These mice did not generate T helper 2 (TH2) cell responses against Heligmosomoides polygyrus infection, consistent with cDC2 supporting TH2 responses to helminths. Thus, CDP divergence into cDC1 or cDC2 is controlled by competition between NFIL3 and C/EBPs at the -165 kb Zeb2 enhancer.

Single cell RNASeq analysis of memory TH2 cell response to an intestianl nematode

Project description:Intestinal parasitic nematodes, affecting a quarter of the world’s population, typically elicit prominent effector Th2-driven host immune responses. However, a more detailed understanding of nematode-induced memory Th2 responses remains scarce. We investigated the activation of peritoneal memory Th2 cells and the mechanisms driving early recall responses to the enteric nematode Heligmosomoides polygyrus in mice. We show memory Th2 cells with distinct transcriptional profiles to persist systemically in lymphoid and non-lymphoid tissues following cure of infection. Moreover, peritoneal memory Th2 cells display strong cytokine production, upregulate costimulatory marker Ox40 (CD134) and IL-5 production in a parasite-specific manner as early as 3 days following challenge infection. This effect is paralleled by an influx of Ox40L+ dendritic cells (DC) and eosinophils, both appearing exclusively in the peritoneum of reinfected mice. Finally, we show that peritoneal mesothelial cells (PeM) significantly downregulate their expression of VCAM-1 and ICAM-1 in response to a secondary infection, pointing towards an involvement in immune cell efflux. Thus, our data indicate a pivotal role of the peritoneum for memory Th2 responses and a role for PeM cells in immune cell recruitment, activation and efflux during recall responses to a strictly intestinal pathogen.
