    Abstract Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs), which include Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC), are driven by an abnormal immune response to commensal microbiota in genetically susceptible hosts. In addition to epithelial and stromal cells, innate and adaptive immune systems are both involved in IBD immunopathogenesis. Given the advances driven by single-cell technologies, we here reviewed the immune landscape and function of mononuclear phagocytes in inflamed non-lymphoid and lymphoid tissues of CD and UC patients. Immune cell profiling of IBD tissues using scRNA sequencing combined with multi-color cytometry analysis identifies unique clusters of monocyte-like cells, macrophages, and dendritic cells. These clusters reflect either distinct cell lineages (nature), or distinct or intermediate cell types with identical ontogeny, adapting their phenotype and function to the surrounding milieu (nurture and tissue imprinting). These advanced technologies will provide an unprecedented view of immune cell networks in health and disease, and thus may offer a personalized medicine approach to patients with IBD.

    Abstract BACKGROUND: The potential benefit of inducing delayed‐type hypersensitivity (DTH) reaction in healthy volunteers (HVs) as experimental models to study skin inflammatory disorders was recently reported using bulk molecular technologies. Immunophenotype of skin T cells, including cellular source of Type 1, 2, and 3 cytokines, in a local DTH reaction and their modulation by oral drugs remain to be investigated. METHOD: Purified protein derivative (PPD), nickel, diphencyprone (DPCP), or house dust mite (HDM) was administered as sensitizer to 40 HVs. In addition, 20 HVs were randomized to receive oral prednisone or placebo before DPCP challenge. We characterized the immunophenotype and cytokine profile of CD3⁺ T cell infiltrate, and examined the modulation by oral prednisone at single‐cell level using multiparameter flow cytometry and unsupervised analysis. RESULTS: PPD was biased toward a Th1 and Tc1 response, and HDM a Th2/Th17 and Tc2. Nickel and DPCP displayed a mixed Th1/Th2/Th17 and Tc1 response. CD4⁺CD25⁺FoxP3⁺ regulatory T cells (Tregs), the minor CD4⁺CD25⁺FoxP3⁻ICOS⁺PD‐1⁺ (activated PD‐1⁺ Th), and CD103⁺ tissue resident memory (TRM) cells were detected in all groups. DPCP uniquely elicited rare CD8⁺CD103⁺CD25⁺RoRγt⁺PD‐1⁺ICOS⁺IFNγ⁺ T cells (activated CD8⁺IFNγ⁺PD‐1⁺ TRM). Oral prednisone decreased frequencies of activated PD‐1⁺ Th and CD8⁺IFNγ⁺PD‐1⁺ TRM subsets relative to placebo in DPCP reaction. The latter was positively correlated with improvement of clinical parameters with prednisone. CONCLUSION: DTH and skin CD3⁺ T cell profiles elicited by common sensitizers can be modulated by oral drugs. Corticosteroids reduce the frequencies of activated PD‐1⁺ Th and CD8⁺IFNγ⁺PD‐1⁺ TRM cells after DPCP exposure.

    Abstract Monocyte maturation program into macrophages (MΦ) is well defined in murine gut under homeostatic or inflammatory conditions. Obviously, in vivo tracking of monocytes in inflamed tissues remains difficult in humans. Furthermore, in vitro models fall short in generating the surrogates of transient extravasated tissue inflammatory monocytes. Here, we aimed to unravel environmental cues that replicated the human monocyte "waterfall" process in vitro by first, generating tissue-like inflammatory monocytes, which were then shifted toward MΦ.

    Abstract Background: Pathogenesis of atopic dermatitis (AD) involves interaction between type 2 cells that include basophils, mast cells, innate lymphoid type 2 cells (ILC2), and Th2 cells. Levels of IL-4 and IL-13 are elevated in AD patients.
    Objective: Here, we investigated the distribution of type 2 cells and the source of IL-4 and IL-13 in skin and blood of AD relative to psoriasis.
    Methods: Lesional skin biopsies and blood were collected from patients. Skin cell suspensions were prepared by mild enzymatic digestion and mechanical dissociation. IL-4 and IL-13 expression was analyzed at single-cell level before or after stimulation using flow cytometry.
    Results: Frequencies of basophils, ILC2 and Th2 but not mast cells were significantly elevated in skin, and not blood, of AD relative to psoriasis. IL-4 production by circulating basophils and Th2 cells, and IL-13 by ILCs and Th2 cells was similar in both diseases. In contrast, skin T cells expressed IL-4 and IL-13 prior to stimulation in AD when compared to psoriasis. Moreover, skin basophils, which were detected in AD only, expressed IL-4 following stimulation. Interestingly, basophils and ILC2 were positively correlated in skin, whereas skin basophils were inversely correlated with blood ILC2.
    Conclusions: Lesional AD skin harbors a distinctive innate and adaptive type 2 profile, which is characterized by basophils producing IL-4, Th2 cells expressing IL-4 or IL-13, and ILC2. This underlies the therapeutic efficacy of targeting IL-4 and IL-13 signaling pathways in AD.

    Abstract Basophils are, together with mast cells, typical innate effector cells of allergen-induced IgE-dependent allergic diseases. Both cell types express the high-affinity receptor for IgE (FcεR1), release histamine, inflammatory mediators, and cytokines following FcεR1 cross-linking. Basophils are rare granulocytes in blood, lymphoid, and non-lymphoid tissues, and the difficulties to detect and isolate these cells has hampered the study of their biology and the understanding of their possible role in pathology. Furthermore, the existence of other FcεR1-expressing cells, including professional Ag-presenting dendritic cells, generated some controversy regarding the ability of basophils to express MHC Class II molecules, present Ag and drive naïve T cell differentiation into Th2 cells. The focus of this review is to present the recent advances on the interactions between basophils and peripheral blood and tissue memory Th1, Th2, and Th17 cells, as well as their potential role in IgE-independent non-allergic chronic inflammatory disorders, including human inflammatory bowel diseases. Basophils interactions with the innate players of IgE-dependent allergic inflammation, particularly innate lymphoid cells, will also be considered. The previously unrecognized function for basophils in skewing adaptive immune responses opens novel perspectives for the understanding of their contribution to the pathogenesis of inflammatory diseases.

However, studies examining Th17 dysregulation in mesenteric lymph nodes (mLNs) of these patients are rare. We showed that in mLNs, CD could be distinguished from UC by increased frequencies of CCR6
