Project description:Innate lymphocytes are integral components of the cellular immune system that coordinates host defense against a multitude of challenges and can trigger immunopathology when dysregulated. Natural killer (NK) cells and innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) are innate immune effectors postulated to functionally mirror conventional cytotoxic T lymphocytes and helper T cells, respectively. Here, we show that the cytolytic molecule granzyme C was surprisingly expressed in cells with the phenotype of type 1 ILCs (ILC1s) in mouse liver and salivary gland. Cell fate-mapping and transfer studies revealed that granzyme C-expressing innate lymphocytes could be derived from ILC progenitors and did not interconvert with NK cells, ILC2s, or ILC3s. Granzyme C defined a maturation state of ILC1s, which required the transcription factor T-bet and to a lesser extent Eomes specifically in the salivary gland for their maintenance. Furthermore, transforming growth factor-b (TGF-b) signaling promoted maintenance of granzyme C-expressing ILC1s in the salivary gland and in the tumor of a transgenic breast cancer model, and their depletion caused accelerated tumor growth. ILC1s gained granzyme C expression following interleukin-15 (IL-15) stimulation, which enabled perforin-mediated cytotoxicity. Strikingly, constitutive activation of the IL-15-regulated transcription factor Stat5 in granzyme C-fate-mapped ILC1s triggered lethal perforin-dependent autoimmunity in neonatal mice. Thus, granzyme C marks a cytotoxic effector state of ILC1s, broadening their function beyond ‘helper-like’ lymphocytes.

Project description:Group 1 innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) comprising circulating natural killer (cNK) cells and tissue-resident ILC1s are critical for host defense against pathogens and tumors. Despite a growing understanding of their role in homeostasis and disease, the ontogeny of group 1 ILCs remains largely unknown. Here, we used fate mapping and single-cell transcriptomics to comprehensively investigate the origin and turnover of group 1 ILCs. While cNK cells are continuously replaced throughout life, we uncovered tissue-dependent development and turnover of ILC1s. A first wave of ILC1s emerges during embryogenesis in the liver and transiently colonizes fetal tissues. After birth, a second wave quickly replaces ILC1s in most tissues apart from the liver, where they layer with embryonic ILC1s and persist until adulthood undergoing a unique developmental program. While embryonically-derived ILC1s give rise to a cytotoxic subset, the neonatal wave establishes a helper-like subset. Our findings uncover key ontogenic features of group 1 ILCs and their association with unique cellular identities and functions.

Project description:Human ILCs are classically categorized into five subsets; cytotoxic CD127-CD94+ NK cells and non-cytotoxic CD127+CD94-, ILC1s, ILC2s, ILC3s and LTi cells. Here, we identify a novel subset within the CD127+ ILC population, characterized by the expression of the cytotoxic marker CD94. These CD94+ ILCs strongly resemble conventional ILC3s in terms of phenotype, transcriptome and cytokine production, but are highly cytotoxic. IL-15 was unable to induce differentiation of CD94+ ILCs towards mature NK cells. Instead, CD94+ ILCs retained RORγt, CD127 and CD200R expression and produced IL-22 in response to IL-15. Culturing non-cytotoxic CD127+ ILC1s or ILC3s with IL-12 induced upregulation of CD94 and cytotoxic activity, effects that were not observed with IL-15 stimulation. Thus, human helper ILCs can acquire a cytotoxic program without differentiating into NK cells.

Project description:Elucidating the true physiological functions of granzymes has been challenging since the origin of the granzyme studied, the use of non-physiological granzyme concentrations and the interspecies use of granzymes, with extrapolation of all these data to orthologous granzymes has led to inconsistencies. This is highly relevant for granzymes A and K where a debate is ongoing concerning their involvement in either cytotoxic or inflammatory processes, or in both. In order to tackle such contradictions, detailed knowledge of the substrate repertoires and substrate specificities of granzymes as well as their cleavage efficiencies may add in unraveling the primary signaling pathways these granzymes are involved in. Therefore, a degradome analysis using N-terminal COFRADIC was performed to unravel the substrate repertoires and subsite determinants for the closely related homologous human tryptases. We furthermore also profiled the uncharacterized mouse granzyme K in a comparative analysis with its human ortholog. Despite the subtle differences observed in the primary specificity profiles of these granzymes, for each granzyme distinguishing substrate subsite features could be elucidated.

Project description:RNA sequencing demonstrated that liver Ly49E+ and Ly49E- ILC1s exhibited unique transcriptional profiles and phenotypic features. scRNA-seq analysis revealed heterogeneity within both cNK and ILC1 subsets in liver. cNK cells could be further divided into three clusters, which corresponded to different developmental stages. Ly49E expression could dissect ILC1s into two subsets: Ly49E+ ILC1s and Ly49E- ILC1s, which exhibited different functional characteristics.

Project description:Malignancy can be suppressed by the immune system. However, the classes of immunosurveillance responses and their mode of tumor sensing remain incompletely understood. Here, we show that while clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) was infiltrated by exhaustion-phenotype CD8+ T cells which negatively correlated with patient prognosis, chromophobe RCC had abundant infiltration of granzyme A-expressing intraepithelial type 1 innate lymphoid cells (ILC1s) that positively associated with patient survival. Interleukin-15 (IL-15) promoted ILC1 granzyme A expression and cytotoxicity, and IL-15 expression in chRCC tumor tissue positively tracked with the ILC1 response. An ILC1 gene signature also predicted survival of a subset of breast cancer patients in association with IL-15 expression. Notably, ILC1s directly interacted with cancer cells, and IL-15 produced by cancer cells supported the expansion and anti-tumor function of ILC1s in a murine breast cancer model. Thus, ILC1 sensing of cancer cell IL-15 defines an immunosurveillance mechanism of epithelial malignancies.

Project description:Innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) that express NK cell receptors (NCRs) and the transcription factor T-bet populate non-lymphoid tissues and are crucial in immune responses against viral infections and malignancies. Recent studies highlighted the heterogeneity of this ILC population and extended their functional spectrum to include important roles in tissue homeostasis and autoimmunity. Here, we provide detailed profiling of NCR+T-bet+ ILC populations in the murine kidney, identifying conventional NK (cNK) cells and type 1 ILCs (ILC1s) as the two major subsets. Induction of renal inflammation in a mouse model of glomerulonephritis did not substantially influence abundance or phenotype of cNK cells or ILC1s in the kidney. For functional analyses in this model, widely used depletion strategies for total NCR+ ILCs (αNK1.1 antibody application) and cNK cells (α-asGM1 serum application) were unreliable tools, since they were accompanied by significant off-target depletion of kidney NKT cells and CD8+ T cells, respectively. However, neither depletion of cNK cells and ILC1s in NKT cell-deficient mice, nor specific genetic deletion of cNK cells in Ncr1Cre/wt x Eomesfl/fl mice altered the clinical course of experimental glomerulonephritis. In summary, we show here that cNK cells and ILC1s are dispensable for initiation and progression of immune-mediated glomerular disease and advise caution in the use of standard antibody depletion methods to study NCR+ ILC function in mouse models.

Project description:B cells with regulatory functions have been described both in immune homeostasis in healthy volunteers and in different pathological conditions. Whereas Il-10 secreting B cells represent the main subset described, recently, a subset of B cells secreting granzyme B (GZMB+) was evidenced in a growing numbers of immunological contexts, autoimmunity, chronic infections and neoplasias. Until now, no phenotype has been evidenced for these GZMB+ B cells and their regulatory functions as well are still to clarify.

Project description:ILC1s are tissue-resident lymphocytes, their recruitment, migration and infiltration into subcutaneous tumors is a big concern. In addition, as NK cells and ILC1s are phenotypically similar, it is difficult to assess the relative contribution of these two cell types to anti-tumor function. Here, we compared the transcriptomes of ILC1s and NK cells from MC38 tumor-bearing mice to understand the biological/phenotypic changes of ILC1s.

Project description:STAT4 dynamically interacts with the genomic landscape and functions in modulating chromatin accessibility to influence gene expression. We aimed to evaluate the impact of STAT4 on chromatin accessibility of colonic lamina propria ILC1s. To address this aim, we sorted ILC1s from the colonic LP of unmanipulated C57BL/6 and STAT4-/- mice and performed the assay for transposase-accessible chromatin using sequencing (ATAC-seq).
