Project description:T-helper 17 (Th17) cells play a dual role in immunological responses, serving as essential components in tissue homeostasis and host defense against microbial pathogens, while also contributing to proinflammatory conditions and autoimmunity. While Transforming Growth Factor-beta 1 (TGFβ1) is pivotal for the differentiation of non-pathogenic Th17 cells, the role of TGFβ3 and Activin in steering Th17 cells toward a pathogenic phenotype has been acknowledged. However, the molecular mechanisms governing this dichotomy remain elusive. In this study, we demonstrate that the transcription factor Foxo1 is upregulated in a TGFβ1 dose-dependent manner, serving as a critical regulator that specifically modulates the fate of pathogenic Th17 cells. Analyses in both uveitis patients and an Experimental Autoimmune Uveitis (EAU) mouse model reveal a strong correlation between disease severity and diminished Foxo1 expression levels. Ectopic expression of Foxo1 selectively attenuates IL-17A production under pathogenic Th17-inducing conditions. Moreover, enhanced Foxo1 expression, triggered by TGFβ1 signaling, is implicated in fatty acid metabolism pathways that favor non-pathogenic Th17 differentiation. Our drug screening identifies several FDA-approved compounds capable of upregulating Foxo1. Collectively, our findings offer compelling evidence that Foxo1 serves as a molecular switch to specifically control pathogenic versus non-pathogenic Th17 differentiation in a TGFβ1-dependent manner. These insights suggest that targeting Foxo1 could be a promising therapeutic strategy for autoimmune diseases, offering efficacy without compromising immune homeostasis.

Project description:Th17 cells are key players in autoimmune diseases. However, the roles of non-coding RNAs in Th17 cells are largely unknown. Here, we show that deletion of the Dicer gene specifically in Th17 cells protects from experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE). Th17 cells highly express the miR-183/96/182 cluster (miR-183C), in response to IL-6/STAT3 signaling. Moreover, miR-183C regulates pathogenic cytokine expression during Th17 development. Furthermore, transcription factor Foxo1 is one of functional targets of miR-183C in Th17 cells: Foxo1 negatively regulates the pathogenicity of Th17 cells and miR-183C represses Foxo1 expression. Collectively, our results demonstrate one of crucial roles for miR-183C cluster in regulation of Th17 cell function in autoimmune diseases.

Project description:Extensive cellular heterogeneity exists within specific immune-cell subtypes classified as a single lineage, but its molecular underpinnings are rarely characterized at a genomic scale. Here, we use single-cell RNA-seq to investigate the molecular mechanisms governing heterogeneity and pathogenicity of Th17 cells isolated from the central nervous system (CNS) and lymph nodes (LN) at the peak of autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) or polarized in vitro under either pathogenic or non-pathogenic differentiation conditions. Computational analysis reveals a spectrum of cellular states in vivo, including a self-renewal state, Th1-like effector/memory states and a dysfunctional/senescent state. Relating these states to in vitro differentiated Th17 cells, unveils genes governing pathogenicity and disease susceptibility. Using knockout mice, we validate four novel genes: Gpr65, Plzp, Toso and Cd5l (in a companion paper). Cellular heterogeneity thus informs Th17 function in autoimmunity, and can identify targets for selective suppression of pathogenic Th17 cells while sparing non-pathogenic tissue-protective ones.
