Show abstract
The metabolic pathways controlling naive CD8+ T (Tn) cell maturation following thymic egress remain mostly undefined. This is important because immature Tn are a major component of peripheral immune tolerance in newborns and under lymphopenia. In this study we demonstrate that TMRM, a mitochondrial membrane potential marker, could be applied to rapidly identify an immature Tn cell population in the periphery. Applying this marker to perform metabolic and proteomic analysis, we show that immature Tn cells maintain accelerated methionine cycle in respect to mature Tn. This unique metabolic state was associated with restricted Tbx21 locus and diminished immune response in vitro and in vivo. Following our findings, we demonstrate that inhibition of methionine cycle leads to rapid functional maturation of Tn and recovery of immune response to stimuli. Our work provides insight into the way the rate of methionine cycling regulates T cell maturation, opening a path for metabolic manipulation of immune tolerance.
