Context-dependent role of type 3 innate lymphoid cells in mucosal protection

ABSTRACT: How group 3 innate lymphoid cells (ILC3) regulate mucosal protection in the presence of T cells remains poorly understood. Here, we examined ILC3 function in intestinal immunity using ILC3-deficient mice that maintain endogenous T cells, Th17 cells, and secondary lymphoid organs. ILC3 were dispensable for generation of Th17 and Th22 cell responses to commensal and pathogenic bacteria, and absence of ILC3 did not affect IL-22-production by CD4 T cells before or during infection. However, despite presence of IL-22-producing T cells, ILC3 and ILC3-derived IL-22 were required for maintaining homeostatic functions of the intestinal epithelium. T cell-sufficient, ILC3-deficient mice were capable of pathogen clearance and survived infection with low dose Citrobacter rodentium. However, ILC3 increased pathogen tolerance at early timepoints of infection by activating tissue-protective immune pathways. Consequently, ILC3 were indispensable for survival of high dose infection. Our results demonstrate a crucial context-dependent role for ILC3 in immune-sufficient animals and provide a blueprint for uncoupling of ILC3 and Th17 cell functions.

Trained ILC3 Responses Promote Intestinal Defense

Project description:Group 3 innate lymphoid cells (ILC3) are innate immune effectors that contribute to host defense. Whether ILC3 functions are stably modified following pathogen encounter is unknown. Here we assess the impact of a time-restricted enterobacterial challenge to long-term ILC3 activation. We found that intestinal ILC3 persist for months in an activated state following exposure to Citrobacter rodentium. Upon rechallenge, these “trained” ILC3 proliferate, display enhanced interleukin (IL)-22 responses, and have a superior cell-intrinsic capacity to control infection compared to naïve ILC3. Metabolic changes occur in C. rodentium-exposed ILC3 but only trained ILC3 have enhanced proliferative capacity that contributes to elevated IL-22 production. Accordingly, a limited encounter with a pathogen can promote durable phenotypic and functional changes in intestinal ILC3 that contribute to long-term mucosal defense.

Ornithine decarboxylase supports ILC3 responses in infectious and autoimmune colitis through positive regulation of IL-22 transcription

Project description:Group 3 innate lymphoid cells (ILC3s) are RORγT+ lymphocytes that are predominately enriched in mucosal tissues and produce IL-22 and IL-17A. They are the innate counterparts of Th17. While Th17 lymphocytes utilize unique metabolic pathways in their differentiation program, it is unknown whether ILC3s make similar metabolic adaptations. We employed single-cell RNA sequencing and metabolomic profiling of intestinal ILC subsets to identify an enrichment of polyamine biosynthesis in ILC3s, converging on the rate-limiting enzyme ornithine decarboxylase (ODC1). In vitro and in vivo studies demonstrated that exogenous supplementation with the polyamine putrescine or its biosynthetic substrate, ornithine, enhanced ILC3 production of IL-22. Conditional deletion of ODC1 in ILC3s impaired mouse antibacterial defense against C. rodentium infection, which was associated with a decrease in anti-microbial peptide production by the intestinal epithelium. Furthermore, in a model of anti-CD40 colitis, deficiency of ODC1 in ILC3s markedly reduced the production of IL-22 and severity of inflammatory colitis. We conclude that cell-intrinsic polyamine biosynthesis facilitates efficient defense against enteric pathogens as well as augments autoimmune colitis, thus representing an attractive target to modulate ILC3 function in intestinal disease.

Metabolite - sensing receptor Ffar2 regulates colonic group 3 innate lymphoid cells and gut immunity

Project description:Group 3 innate lymphoid cells (ILC3s) sense environmental signals that are critical for gut homeostasis and host defense. However, the metabolite-sensing G-protein-coupled receptors that regulate colonic ILC3s remain poorly understood. We found that colonic ILC3s expressed Ffar2, a microbial metabolite-sensing receptor, and that Ffar2 agonism promoted ILC3 expansion and function. Deletion of Ffar2 in ILC3s decreased their in situ proliferation and ILC3-derived IL-22 production. This led to impaired gut epithelial function characterized by altered mucus-associated proteins and antimicrobial peptides and increased susceptibility to colonic injury and bacterial infection. Ffar2 increased IL-22+ CCR6+ ILC3s and influenced ILC3 abundance in colonic lymphoid tissues. Ffar2 agonism differentially activated AKT or ERK signaling and increased ILC3-derived IL-22 via an AKT and STAT3 axis. Our findings demonstrate that Ffar2 regulates colonic ILC3 proliferation and function in a cell-intrinsic manner and identifies an ILC3-receptor signaling pathway regulating gut inflammatory tone and pathogen defense.

Complementarity and redundancy of IL-22-producing innate lymphoid cells

Project description:Homeostasis of the gut microbiota is pivotal to the survival of the host. Intestinal T cells and Innate Lymphoid cells (ILCs) control the composition of the microbiota and respond to its perturbations. Interleukin 22 (IL-22) plays a pivotal role in the immune control of gut commensal and pathogenic bacteria and is secreted by a heterogeneous population of intestinal T cells, NCR- ILC3 and NCR+ILC3. Expression of NCR by ILC3 is believed to define an irreversible effector ILC3 end-state fate in which these cells are key to control of bacterial infection via their production of IL-22. Here we identify the core transcriptional signature that drives the differentiation of NCR- ILC3 into NCR+ ILC3 and reveal that NCR+ILC3 exhibit more plasticity than originally thought, as NCR+ ILC3 can revert to NCR- ILC3. Contrary to the prevailing understanding of NCR+ ILC3 genesis and function, in vivo analyses of mice conditionally deleted of the key ILC3 genes Stat3, Il22, Tbet and Mcl1 demonstrated that NCR+ ILC3 were not essential for the control of colonic infections in the presence of T cells. However, NCR+ ILC3 were mandatory for homeostasis of the caecum. Our data identify that the interplay of intestinal T cells and ILC3 results in robust complementary fail-safe mechanisms that ensure gut homeostasis.

Group 3 innate lymphoid cell pyroptosis represents a host defense mechanism against Salmonella infection

Project description:Group 3 innate lymphoid cells (ILC3s) produce interleukin (IL)-22 and, together with other cells in the gut, orchestrate to mount productive host immunity against bacterial infection. However, the role of ILC3s in Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium (S. Typhimurium) infection, which causes foodborne enteritis in humans, remains elusive. Here, we show that S. Typhimurium exploit ILC3-produced IL-22 to promote its infection. Specifically, S. Typhimurium secrete flagellin through activation of the TLR5-Myd88-IL-23 signaling pathway in antigen presenting cells (APCs) to selectively enhance IL-22 production by ILC3s, but not T cells. Deletion of ILC3s but not T cells in mice led to better control of S. Typhimurium infection. We also show that S. Typhimurium can invade ILC3s directly and cause caspase-1-mediated ILC3 pyroptosis independently of flagellin. Genetic ablation of Casp1 in mice leads to increased ILC3 survival and IL-22 production, and enhanced S. Typhimurium infection. Collectively, our data suggest a key host defense mechanism against S. Typhimurium infection via induction of ILC3 death to limit intracellular bacteria and reduce IL-22 production.

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

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.

Human RORM-NM-3t+ CD34+ cells are lineage-specified progenitors of group 3 RORM-NM-3t+ innate lymphoid cells

Project description:Group 3 innate lymphoid cells (ILC3) are defined by the expression of RORM-NM-3t, which is selectively required for their development. The lineage-specified progenitor cells of human ILC3 and their developmental site after birth remain undefined. Here we identified a novel population of human CD34+ hematopoietic progenitor cells (HPC) expressing RORM-NM-3t and sharing with ILC3 a distinct transcriptional signature. RORM-NM-3t+ CD34+ HPC were located in tonsils and intestinal lamina propria (LP) and selectively differentiated towards ILC3. Conversely, RORM-NM-3t- CD34+ HPC displayed commitment potential for both ILC3 and NK cells and the differentiation fate towards these two cell lineages was determined by cytokine and aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) signaling. Thus, we propose that RORM-NM-3t+ CD34+ cells represent human lineage-specified progenitors of IL-22+ ILC3 and that tonsils as well as intestinal LP might be preferential sites of their differentiation. ILC3, NK cells and the CD34+ HPC subsets were sorted from tonsils of 6 distinct donors to purity above 95%. cRNA of the sorted cell populations was hybridized to an Agilent Whole Human Genome Oligo Microarrays (8x60K v2, Design ID 039494)
