Expression data from naive, effector and memory-like ILC2s isolated from mouse lungs and those from effector and memory-like ILC2s isolated from mediastinal lymph node

ABSTRACT: Group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) in the lung are stimulated by inhaled allergens. ILC2s do not directly recognize allergens but they are stimulated by cytokines including interleukin (IL)-33 released by damaged epithelium.Lung ILC2s, upon stimulation, produce T helper 2 cell-type cytokines inducing T cell independent allergic lung inflammation. We now report that lung ILC2s, upon activation by an allergen or IL-33, acquire the properties of memory cells. The activated ILC2s initially proliferate and secrete cytokines, followed by a contraction phase as they stop producing cytokines. Nevertheless, some persist long after the resolution of the inflammation and acquire intrinsic capacities to react to unrelated allergens more vigorously than naïve ILC2s, thus mediating a severe allergic lung inflammation. Gene expression profiles of the previously activated ILC2s show a gene signature of memory T cells. These antigen non-specific memory ILC2s may explain why asthma patients are often sensitized to multiple allergens.

These antigen non-specific memory ILC2s may explain why asthma patients are often sensitized to multiple allergens. ILC2s were isolated from mouse lungs from naive and IL-33 injected mice 4 days, 14 days and 4 months after the initial treatment. RNA was extracted from those ILC2 populations and analyzed for gene expression profiles. RNA was also extracted from ILC2s isolated from lung draining mediastinal lymph node (mLN) 4 days and 14 days after IL-33 treatment.

Gene expression data of naïve and activated ILC2s isolated from female and male mouse lungs

Project description:Epidemiological studies have shown sex differences in prevalence of non-allergic asthma. Recent reports demonstrated negative effects of androgen signaling on group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s), explaining a potential mechanism behind sex bias in asthma prevalence. To further understand the difference in ILC2s based on sex, we have investigated the effects of sex and age on the number and function of lung ILC2s, and epithelium derived cytokines. Naive male and female mice of any ages tested did not differ in the number of ILC2s in the lung. Upon IL-33 injection, lung ILC2s in post puberty female mice responded more vigorously than male counterpart. Purified female lung ILC2s more rapidly produced cytokines than male mouse ILC2s. Gene expression profiles of naïve male and female ILC2s differed in 4% of the genes, and gene set enrichment analysis showed that female ILC2s are enriched for gene signatures of memory T cells. Epithelium-derived cytokines including IL-33 were more highly expressed in post puberty naïve female mouse lungs than male mouse lungs. However, the differences in responsiveness of male and female ILC2s were not affected in IL-33-deficient mice. Therefore, female ILC2s are more readily activated than male ILC2s, likely due to their similarity to memory T cells as suggested by the gene expression profiles.

Proteome of group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) stimulated with IL33 and TL1A

Project description:We analyzed the total proteome of group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) after different stimulation with interleukin-33 (IL-33), a cytokine playing a critical role in human asthma, and TL1A, a TNF-family cytokine also known to activate ILC2s. Upon combined stimulation with IL-33 plus TL1A, we show that lung ILC2s produce high amounts of IL-9 and acquire a transient ‘ILC9’ phenotype. This phenotype is characterized by simultaneous production of large amounts of type 2 cytokines (IL-5, IL-13 and IL-9), induction of the IL-2 receptor CD25 (Il2ra), and of the transcription factors IRF4, JunB and BATF, that form immune-specific complexes known to induce IL-9 expression.

E-protein inhibition in ILC2 development shapes the function of mature ILC2s during allergic airway inflammation

Project description:E-protein transcription factors (TFs) limit group 2 innate lymphoid cell (ILC2) development while promoting T cell differentiation from common lymphoid progenitors (CLPs). Inhibitors of DNA-binding (Id) proteins block E-protein DNA binding in CLPs to allow ILC2 development. However, whether E-proteins influence ILC2 function upon maturity and activation remains unclear. Mice that overexpress Id1 under control of the thymus-restricted proximal Lck promoter (Id1tg/WT) have a large pool of primarily thymus-derived ILC2s in the periphery that develop in the absence of E-protein activity. We used these mice to investigate how the absence of E-protein activity affects ILC2 function and genomic landscape in response to house dust mite (HDM) allergens. Id1tg/WT mice had increased Klrg1- ILC2s in the lung compared to wild type (WT, Id1WT/WT) mice in response to HDM, but Id1tg/WT ILC2s had an impaired capacity to produce type 2 cytokines. Analysis of WT ILC2 accessible chromatin suggested that AP-1 and C/EBP TFs but not E-proteins were associated with ILC2 inflammatory gene programs. Instead, E-protein binding sites were enriched at functional genes in ILC2s during development that were later dynamically regulated in allergic lung inflammation, including genes that control ILC2 response to cytokines and interactions with T cells. Finally, ILC2s from Id1tg/WT compared to WT mice had fewer regions of open chromatin near functional genes that were enriched for AP-1 factor binding sites following HDM treatment. These data show that E-proteins shape the chromatin landscape during ILC2 development to dictate the functional capacity of mature ILC2s during allergic inflammation in the lung.

Gene expression data of naïve wildtype and IL-33 knockout ILC2s isolated from adult male mouse lungs

Project description:Group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) in mouse lungs are activated by the epithelium-derived alarmin IL-33. Activated ILC2s proliferate and produce IL-5 and IL-13 that drive allergic responses. In neonatal lungs, IL-33 is spontaneously released resulting in activation of lung ILC2s. Here we report that neonatal lung ILC2 activation has significant effects on ILC2 functions in adulthood. Most neonatal lung ILC2s incorporated bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU) and persisted into adulthood. BrdU+ ILC2s in adult lungs responded more intensely to IL-33 treatment than BrdU- ILC2s. In IL-33 deficient (KO) mice, lung ILC2s develop normally but they are not activated in the neonatal period. Lung ILC2s in KO mice responded less intensely to IL-33 in adulthood compared to wild type (WT) ILC2s. While there was no difference in the number of lung ILC2s, there were fewer IL-13+ ILC2s in IL-33KO than IL-33WT mice. The impaired responsiveness of ILC2s in KO mice was reversed by intranasal injections of IL-33 in the neonatal period. These results suggest that activation of lung ILC2s by endogenous IL-33 in the neonatal period may “train” ILC2s seeding the lung after birth to become long-lasting resident cells that respond more efficiently to challenges later in life.

A tissue checkpoint regulates type 2 immunity

Project description:Innate pattern recognition receptors for conserved structural elements play critical roles in immunity against viruses, bacteria and fungi, but analogous pathways linking innate recognition of diverse allergens or helminths with type 2 immunity remain elusive. The discovery of group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s), which produce similar cytokines as CD4+ T helper 2 (Th2) cells1, has suggested models whereby ILC2s directly or indirectly induce adaptive Th2 cells,2-8 but current understanding of how these cells interact in tissue microenvironments to coordinate allergic immunity is limited. Here, we show that tissue Th2 cells differentiate independently of ILC2s, but that both cell types share overlapping transcriptional and functional programs, which require exposure to the tissue-derived cytokines such as interleukin (IL)-25, IL-33, and thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP). Combined loss of these epithelial cytokines affects neither Th2 cell priming nor T cell-dependent antibody production, but abrogates allergic lung inflammation due to requirements for local tissue signals to promote differentiation of effector function in both ILC2s and Th2 cells. Our findings reveal how diverse perturbations, including proteases, venoms and mechanical irritants, converge on common pathways to activate type 2 immune responses, thus uncovering a shared checkpoint that can be exploited to control both innate and adaptive allergic inflammation.

Runx/Cbfβ complexes protect ILC2s from exhaustion during allergic airway inflammation

Project description:Group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) have tissue-resident competence and contribute to the pathogenesis of allergic diseases. Therefore, there should be mechanisms to maintain the capacity of ILC2s to produce TH2 cytokines under chronic inflammatory conditions. Here, we report that Runx proteins are essential to prevent exaggerated activation of ILC2, in part by antagonizing GATA-3 function at steady state. However, during allergic inflammation, the absence of Runx in ILC2s impaired their ability to proliferate and produce effector TH2 cytokines and chemokines, but instead induced expression of T cell exhaustion markers including IL-10 and TIGIT. These exhausted ILC2s were unabale to induce type 2 immune responses against repeated allergen inhalation. Thus, Runx proteins protect ILC2s from exhaustion during continuous allergic inflammation.

Transcriptome of Chat positive and negative ILC2s

Project description:Group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) reside in multiple tissues including lymphoid organs and barrier surfaces, and secrete type 2 cytokines including interleukin (IL)-5, IL-9 and IL-13. These cells participate in multiple physiological processes including allergic inflammation, tissue repair, metabolic homeostasis and host defense against helminth infections. Recent studies indicate that neuropeptides can play an important role in regulating ILC2 responses, however, the mechanisms that underlie these processes in vivo remain incompletely defined. Here, we identify that activated ILC2s upregulate choline acetyltransferase (ChAT)—the enzyme responsible for the biosynthesis of acetylcholine (ACh)—following infection with the helminth parasite Nippostrongylus brasiliensis or treatment with alarmins or cytokines including IL-25, IL-33 and thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP). ILC2s also express acetylcholine receptors (AChRs), and ACh administration promotes ILC2 cytokine production and elicits expulsion of helminth infection. In accordance with this, ChAT deficiency in ILC2s leads to defective ILC2 responses and impaired immunity against helminth infection. Together, these results reveal a previously unrecognized role of the ChAT-ACh pathway in promoting type 2 innate immunity to helminth infection.

Specification of innate type-2 lymphocytes by the transcriptional determinant Gfi1

Project description:Innate type-2 lymphoid cells (ILC2s) function in immune responses against helminth parasites and are implicated in allergic inflammation and asthma. ILC2s are activated by the epithelial-derived cytokines IL-33 and IL-25 and are major sources of the type-2 cytokines IL-5 and IL-13. We show that the transcription factor Gfi1 promotes the generation of ILC2s and controls their responsiveness during Nippostrongylus brasiliensis infection as well as IL-33- or IL-25-instigated inflammation. Gfi1 directly activates Il1rl1, which encodes the IL-33 receptor. IL- 33 signaling upregulates Gfi1, thereby constituting a positive feedback loop that enables rapid and robust expansion of ILC2s in response to IL-33 signaling. Loss of Gfi1 in activated ILC2s results in an unusual effector state involving derepression of the IL-17 inflammatory program and co-expression of IL-13 with IL-17. ChIPseq reveals key Gfi1 targeted genes that are activated or repressed to maintain ILC2 identity. We propose that Gfi1 functions as a shared determinant within innate and adaptive immune cells to specify type-2 responses, while actively repressing the IL-17 effector state. ILC2s (~3 x 10^7 cells) were sorted from the MLN of IL-25-treated mice. Chromatin fragments bound by Gfi1 were subject to ChIP using Gfi1 antibodies and followed by high-throughput sequencing.
