摘要
Interleukin-(IL) 22 production by intestinal group 3 innate lymphoid cells (ILC3) is critical to maintain gut homeostasis. However, IL-22 needs to be tightly controlled; reduced IL-22 expression is associated with intestinal epithelial barrier defect while its overexpression promotes tumor development. Here, using a single cell RNAseq approach, we identified a core set of genes associated with increased IL-22 production by ILC3. Among these genes, Programmed cell death 1 (PD-1), extensively studied in the context of cancer and chronic infection, was constitutively expressed on a subset of ILC3. These cells, found in the crypt of the small intestine and colon, displayed superior capacity to produce IL-22. PD-1 expression on ILC3 was dependent on the microbiota and was induced during inflammation in response to IL-23 but, conversely, was reduced in the presence of Notch ligand. PD-1+ ILC3 exhibited distinct metabolic activity with increased glycolytic, lipid and polyamine synthesis associated with augmented proliferation compared with their PD-1- counterparts. Further, PD-1+ ILC3 showed increased expression of mitochondrial antioxidant proteins which enable the cells to maintain their levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Loss of PD-1 signaling in ILC3 led to reduced IL-22 production in a cell intrinsic manner. During inflammation, PD-1 expression was increased on NCR- ILC3 while deficiency in PD-1 expression resulted in increased susceptibility to experimental colitis and failure to maintain gut barrier integrity. Collectively, our findings uncover a new function of the PD-1 and highlight the role of PD-1 signaling in the maintenance of gut homeostasis mediated by ILC3 in mice.
