Dll1-Notch2 signaling regulated a Myc-dependent gene expression program fostering cell growth and a Myc-independent program controlling cell-movement regulators such as sphingosine-1 phosphate receptor 1 (S1PR1). S1pr1-deficient B cells experienced Notch signaling within B cell follicles without entering the MZ and were retained in the spleen upon Notch deprivation.

To provide the high resolution that proved revelatory for mice, we performed single-cell RNA sequencing on purified mimetic-cell compartments from human pediatric donors. The single-cell profiles of individual donors were surprisingly similar, with diversification of neuroendocrine subtypes and expansion of the muscle subtype relative to mice. Informatic and imaging studies on the muscle-mTEC population highlighted a maturation trajectory suggestive of skeletal-muscle differentiation, some striated structures, and occasional cellular groupings reminiscent of neuromuscular junctions. We also profiled thymic mimetic cells from zebrafish. Integration of data from the three species identified species-specific adaptations but substantial interspecies conservation, highlighting the evolutionarily ancient nature of mimetic mTECs.

Counterintuitively, B cells with moderately elevated sensitivity to stimulation caused fatal autoimmune pathology, while those with high sensitivity did not. We resolved this apparent paradox by identifying a rheostat-like cytotoxic T cell checkpoint. Cytotoxicity was instructed by and directed against B cells with high intrinsic hyperresponsiveness, while less reactive cells were spared.

We defined a metric reflecting the intratumoral progenitor exhaustion-to-terminal exhaustion ratio (PETER), which decreased with tumor progression in solid cancers. Single-cell analyses of Tex_prog cells and Tex_term cells in glioblastoma (GBM), a setting of severe T cell exhaustion, revealed disproportionate loss of Tex_prog cells over time.

Single-dose depletion-AAV administration durably eliminated lymphocyte subsets in mice and avoided accessory deficiencies of GEMMs, such as marginal zone defects in B cell-deficient animals. Depletion-AAVs can be used in animals of different genetic backgrounds, and multiple depletion-AAVs can readily be combined.

The roles of metabolic enzymes beyond metabolism—such as in innate immune responses—are underexplored. Using a focused short hairpin RNA (shRNA)-mediated screen, we identified CTP synthetase 1 (CTPS1), a rate-limiting enzyme of pyrimidine synthesis, as a negative regulator of interferon induction. Mechanistically, CTPS1 interacts with and deamidates interferon regulatory factor 3 (IRF3). Deamidation at N85 impairs IRF3 binding to promoters containing IRF3-responsive elements, thus muting interferon (IFN) induction. Employing CTPS1 conditional deletion and IRF3 deamidated or deamidation-resistant knockin mice, we demonstrated that CTPS1-driven IRF3 deamidation restricts IFN induction in response to viral infection in vivo. However, during immune activation, IRF3 deamidation by CTPS1 is inhibited by glycogen synthase kinase 3 beta (GSK3β) to promote IFN induction. This work demonstrates how CTPS1 tames innate immunity independent of its role in pyrimidine synthesis, thus expanding the functional repertoire of metabolic enzymes into immune regulation.","PeriodicalId":13269,"journal":{"name":"Immunity","volume":"32 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":32.4,"publicationDate":"2024-12-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142874562","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We report that memory T cells integrate a constellation of inputs—location, stimulation history, antigen persistence, and environment—resulting in myriad differentiation states. Thus, current Trm-defining methodologies have implicit limitations, and a universal residence-specific signature may not exist. However, we define genes and phenotypes that more robustly correlate with tissue residence across the broad range of conditions that we tested.

However, whether lysosome function is also modulated by the cGAS-STING pathway remains unknown. Here, we discovered that the cGAS-STING pathway upregulated lysosomal activity by stimulating lysosome biogenesis independently of the downstream protein kinase TANK-binding kinase 1 (TBK1). STING activation enhanced lysosome biogenesis through inducing the nuclear translocation of transcription factor EB (TFEB) as well as its paralogs transcription factor E3 (TFE3) and microphthalmia-associated transcription factor (MITF). STING-induced lipidation of GABA type A receptor-associated protein (GABARAP), an autophagy-related protein, on STING vesicles was responsible for TFEB activation. Membrane-bound GABARAP sequestered the GTPase-activating protein folliculin (FLCN) and FLCN-interacting protein (FNIP) complex to block its function toward the Rag GTPases Ras-related GTP-binding C and D (RagC and RagD), abolishing mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) complex 1 (mTORC1)-dependent phosphorylation and inactivation of TFEB. Functionally, STING-induced lysosome biogenesis within cells facilitated the clearance of cytoplasmic DNA and invading pathogens.
