In addition to protecting the host from pathogenic microbes, immune cells perform noncanonical physiological functions which require tissue-specific adaptation. Eosinophils are immune cells that are particularly abundant in the nutrient-rich small intestine (SI), but whether nutrients guide their adaptation to this tissue is largely unexplored. In this study, we found that eosinophils gradually migrate along the crypt–villus axis and develop into a transcriptionally distinct villus-resident subpopulation. We determined that this adaptation depends on retinoic acid, a metabolite of vitamin A. Furthermore, we unexpectedly found that high levels of dietary amino acids limit the accumulation of villus-resident eosinophils by accelerating eosinophil turnover. This study highlights the important role of dietary nutrients in shaping the immune cell populations of the SI. Eosinophils are well recognized as effector cells of type 2 immunity, yet they also accumulate in many tissues under homeostatic conditions. However, the processes that govern homeostatic eosinophil accumulation and tissue-specific adaptation, and their functional significance, remain poorly defined. Here, we investigated how eosinophils adapt to the small intestine (SI) microenvironment and the local signals that regulate this process. We observed that eosinophils gradually migrate along the crypt–villus axis, giving rise to a villus-resident subpopulation with a distinct transcriptional signature. Retinoic acid signaling was specifically required for maintenance of this subpopulation, while IL-5 was largely dispensable outside of its canonical role in eosinophil production. Surprisingly, we found that a high-protein diet suppressed the accumulation of villus-resident eosinophils. Purified amino acids were sufficient for this effect, which was a consequence of accelerated eosinophil turnover within the tissue microenvironment and was not due to altered development in the bone marrow. Our study provides insight into the process of eosinophil adaptation to the SI, highlighting its reliance on nutrient-derived signals.
