Project description:Group 3 innate lymphoid cells (ILC3s) are crucial for the maintenance of host-microbiota homeostasis in gastrointestinal mucosal tissues. The mechanisms that maintain lineage identity of intestinal ILC3s, and ILC3s-mediated orchestration of microbiota and mucosal T cell immunity are elusive. Here, we identified BATF as a gatekeeper of ILC3s homeostasis in the gut. Depletion of BATF in ILC3s resulted in excessive interferon-γ production, dysbiosis, aberrant T cell immune responses and spontaneous inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), which was considerably ameliorated by removal of adaptive immunity or antibiotic treatment. Mechanistically, BATF directly regulates ILC3s identity by globally shapes chromatin landscape of ILC3s. BATF directly binds to the cis-regulatory elements of type 1 effector genes, restrains their chromatin accessibility and inhibits their expression. Conversely, BATF promotes chromatin accessibility of genes involved in MHCII antigen processing and presentation pathways. Collectively, our findings reveal BATF is a promising candidate to maintain ILC3s stability and coordinate ILC3s–mediated control of intestinal homeostasis.

Project description:Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI) is a common cause of antibiotic-associated colitis. C. difficile proliferates and produces toxins that damage the colonic epithelium, leading to symptoms ranging from mild diarrhea to severe pseudomembranous colitis. The host's innate response to CDI occurs in two phases: an early phase in which neutrophils reduce the bacterial load, and a late phase involving repair mechanisms to restore epithelial integrity. Group 3 innate lymphoid cells (ILC3s) are crucial in protecting the gut from CDI. Previous studies have shown that ILC3 production of IL-22 is essential in the late phase of CDI for epithelial repair and maintaining an intestinal microbiota that competes with C. difficile, preventing its expansion. Our study finds that ILC3s also protect during the early stages of CDI by sustaining neutrophils through GM-CSF. Less neutrophil production, accumulation and activation was evident in ILC3-deficient mice than in wild-type (WT) mice, which led to exacerbated symptoms, impaired pathogen clearance, a compromised epithelial barrier, and increased mortality. The adoptive transfer of ILC3s into ILC3-deficient mice restored neutrophil responses and improved disease outcomes. Both in vitro and in vivo experiments revealed that GM-CSF production by ILC3s is crucial for neutrophil production and effective resistance during CDI. Using mice lacking NKp46+ ILC3s, we found that this subset significantly contributes to GM-CSF production in CDI. These findings highlight the critical role of the ILC3-neutrophil connection in early innate responses to CDI. Enhancing ILC3 production of GM-CSF could be a promising strategy for improving host defense against CDI and other enteric infections.

Project description:GATA3 is indispensable for the development of all IL-7Rα-expressing innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) and maintenance of type 1 ILCs (ILC1s) and type 2 ILCs (ILC2s). However, the importance of low GATA3 expression in type 3 ILCs (ILC3s) is still elusive. Here, we report that GATA3 regulates homeostasis of ILC3s by controlling IL-7Rα expression. In addition, GATA3 is critical for the development of NKp46+ ILC3 subset partially through regulating the balance between T-bet and RORγt. Genome-wide analyses indicate that while GATA3 positively regulates CCR6+ and NKp46+ ILC3 subset-specific genes in respective lineages, it negatively regulates CCR6+ ILC3-specific genes in NKp46+ ILC3s. Furthermore, GATA3 regulates IL-22 production in both CCR6+ and NKp46+ ILC3s. Thus, low GATA3 expression is critical for the development and function of ILC3 subsets. To identify GATA3 regulated genes in total ILC3s with RNA-Seq; To identify unique genes expressed by CCR6+ ILC3 or NKp46+ ILC3 and GATA3 regulated genes within these two ILC3 subsets with RNA-Seq; To identify GATA3 direct binding sites in ILC3s, ILC2s and Th2 cells with ChIP-Seq.

Project description:ILC3 contain 3 well-defined subsets, CCR6+ ILC3, NKp46+ ILC3, and CCR6–NKp46– DN ILC3. These subsets had not previously been transcriptionally compared and the extent to which they had shared or unique transcriptional profiles remained unclear. We used microarray to determine transcriptional differences between these 3 subsets and to find putative factors that support the survival of CCR6+ ILC3 during cytokine depletion.

Project description:Innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) are tissue-resident lymphocytes subdivided into ILC1s, ILC2s and ILC3s based on core regulatory programs and signature cytokines secreted. ILCs exhibit functional plasticity: for instance, human IL-22-producing ILC3s convert into IFN-γ-producing ILC1-like in vitro. Whether this conversion occurs in vivo is unclear. Using flow cytometry, mass cytometry and scRNAseq, here we found that ILC3s and ILC1s occupy opposite ends of a spectrum including discrete subsets in human tonsils. RNA velocity suggested strong directionality toward ILC1s for one ILC3-ILC1 intermediate cluster. Clonal analysis revealed graded ability of ILC3-ILC1 subsets to convert into ILC1-like cells. When examined in humanized mice, ILC3 acquisition of ILC1 features showed tissue-dependency. In chromatin studies, Aiolos emerged as a nuclear factor that cooperates with Tbet to repress evolutionarily conserved regulatory elements active in ILC3s. The human intestine also exhibited an ILC3–ILC1 transitional population. We conclude that conversion of ILC3s to ILC1-like occurs in vivo in human tissues, and that tissue factors and Aiolos are crucial for this process.

Project description:Recently, circulating multi- and uni-potential human ILC precursors (ILCP) have been found in a lymphocyte population that expresses CD117 and CD127 but lack CRTH2 and NKp44. However, these ILCPs have not been extensively characterized. We performed an unbiased Hierarchical Stochastic Neighbor Embedding (HSNE) analysis of the phenotype of peripheral blood CD117+ ILCPs which revealed the presence of three major subsets; the first expressed NKp46, the second expressed both NKp46 and CD56 and the third expressed KLRG1. Analysis of the differentiation potential of these cells on bulk and clonal levels, cytokine production and the transcriptome revealed that the NKp46+ ILCPs contain high frequencies of ILC3 precursors whereas a minority can differentiate into ILC1/NK-like cells. In contrast KLRG1+ ILCPs are biased to the ILC2 lineage, but are highly plastic and epigenetically poised to differentiate to other ILC subsets depending on the activation signals they receive.

Project description:As an important early source of IL-17A and IL-22 in immune responses, type 3 innate lymphoid cells (ILC3s) are critically regulated by the transcription factor retinoic-acid-receptor-related orphan receptor gamma t (RORγt). Previously, we have identified a crucial role of the conserved non-coding sequence 9 (CNS9), located at +5,802 to +7,963 bp of the Rorc gene, in directing T helper 17 differentiation and related autoimmune disease. However, whether cis-acting elements regulate RORγt expression in ILC3s is unknown. Here we show that CNS9 deficiency in mice not only decreases ILC3 signature gene expression and increases ILC1-gene expression features in total ILC3s, but also leads to generation of a distinct CD4+NKp46+ ILC3 population, though the overall numbers and frequencies of RORγt+ ILC3s are not affected. Mechanistically, CNS9 deficiency selectively decreases RORγt expression in ILC3s, which thus alters ILC3 gene expression features and promotes cell-intrinsic generation of CD4+NKp46+ ILC3 subset. Our study thus identifies CNS9 as an essential cis-regulatory element controlling the lineage stability and plasticity of ILC3s through modulating expression levels of RORγt protein.

Project description:ILC3s from the spleen (SP) and small intestine (SI) have been shown to be phenotypically and functional different. Intestinal factors are likely to regulate transcriptional profiles and thereby function of ILC3s. The goal of this study is to analyze if SI ILC3s acquire a SP-similar transcriptional profile after in vitro culture. Therefore transcriptional profiles of cultured SI ILC3s were compared to freshly isolated ILC3s of the murine SP and the SI by RNA seq technology. Cell suspension were generated from both organs and ILC3s (CD117+, Thy1.2+, KLRG1-, lin- (CD3, CD8, CD11b, CD11c, CD19, B220, Gr-1, TCRβ, TCRγδ, TER-119, NK1.1)) were sort purified. SI ILC3 were cultured for 7 days in vitro with IL-2, IL-7 and SCF. RNA was isolated and RNA sequencing was done using Ilumina Hiseq 2500 system and NuGEN Ovation RNA Seq System V2, with biological replicates. We show that intestinal ILC3 acquire a splenic-similar transcriptional profile after in vitro culture.
