ABSTRACT
Intestinal stem cells (ISC) encounter inflammatory insults in immune mediated gastro-intestinal (GI) diseases. It remains unknown whether, and how, they adapt, and if the adaptation leaves scars on the ISCs that affects their subsequent regeneration capacity. We investigated the consequences of inflammation on Lgr5+ISCs in well-defined clinically relevant models of gastro-intestinal acute graft-versus-host disease (GI GVHD). Utilizing single cell transcriptomics, organoid, metabolic, epigenomic and in vivo models we found that Lgr5+ISCs undergo metabolic changes that lead to accumulation of succinate, which reprograms its epigenome. These changes reduced the ability of ISCs to differentiate and regenerate ex vivo in serial organoid cultures demonstrating the persistence of the maladaptive impact of an in vivo inflammatory encounter by the ISCs. Thus, inflammation from GI GVHD leaves a memory of its effects on ISCs that persist and are likely to affect their sensitivity to adapt to future stress or challenges.
