Abstrakt: | The transcriptomic signatures that shape responses of innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) have been well characterised, however post-transcriptional mechanisms which regulate their development and activity remain poorly understood. We demonstrate that ILC groups of the intestinal lamina propria express mature forms of microRNA-142 (miR-142), an evolutionarily conserved microRNA family with several non-redundant regulatory roles within the immune system. Germline Mir142 deletion alters intestinal ILC compositions, resulting in the absence of T-bet + populations and significant defects in the cellularity and phenotypes of ILC3 subsets including CCR6 + LTi-like ILC3s. These effects were associated with decreased pathology in an innate-immune cell driven model of colitis. Furthermore, Mir142 -/- mice demonstrate defective development of gut-associated lymphoid tissues, including a complete absence of mature Peyer's patches. Conditional deletion of Mir142 in ILC3s (Rorc Δ Mir142 ) supported cell-intrinsic roles for these microRNAs in establishing or maintaining cellularity and functions of LTi-like ILC3s in intestinal associated tissues. RNAseq analysis revealed several target genes and biological pathways potentially regulated by miR-142 microRNAs in these cells. Finally, lack of Mir142 in ILC3 led to elevated IL-17A production. These data broaden our understanding of immune system roles of miR-142 microRNAs, identifying these molecules as critical post-transcriptional regulators of ILC3s and intestinal mucosal immunity.
