T cells coexpressing αβ and γδ T cell receptors

Sarah C. Edwards, Caroline E. Sutton, Kristin Ladell, Emma J. Grant, James E. McLaren, Fiona Roche, Pradyot Dash, Nopporn Apiwattanakul, Walid Awad, Kelly L. Miners, Stephen J. Lalor, Julie C. Ribot, Song Baik, Barry Moran, Aoife McGinley, Valerie Pivorunas, Lori Dowding, Michael Macoritto, Jesus Paez-Cortez, Anthony Slavin, Graham Anderson, Bruno Silva-Santos, Karsten Hokamp, David A. Price, Paul G. Thomas, Rachel M. McLoughlin, Kingston H.G. Mills

T cells classically express either αβ or γδ T cell receptors. We have identified T cells that express both pairs of receptors. These hybrid αβ-γδ T cells exhibit a hyperinflammatory and migratory phenotype and act as first responders in infection and CNS autoimmunity.

GM-CSF regulation in autoantibody-mediated arthritis

Cynthia Louis, Cynthia Louis, Fernando Guimaraes, Yuyan Yang, Damian D’Silva, Tobias Kratina, Laura Dagley, Soroor Hediyeh-Zadeh, Jai Rautela, Seth Lucian Masters, Melissa J. Davis, Jeffrey J. Babon, Bogoljub Ciric, Eric Vivier, Warren S. Alexander, Nicholas D. Huntington, Ian P. Wicks

In the present study, Louis et al. identify an inflammatory cascade mediated by IL-18 and GM-CSF–producing NK cells that promotes autoantibody-driven arthritis. GM-CSF signaling in myeloid cells is subsequently restrained by the suppressor of cytokine signaling protein CIS to prevent aberrant GM-CSF–mediated inflammation.

Chloride intracellular channel 1 in medulloblastoma

Michelle A. Francisco, Siyi Wanggou, Jerry J. Fan, Weifan Dong, Xin Chen, Ali Momin, Namal Abeysundara, Hyun-Kee Min, Jade Chan, Rochelle McAdam, Marian Sia, Ronwell J. Pusong, Shixuan Liu, Nish Patel, Vijay Ramaswamy, Noriyuki Kijima, Lu-Yang Wang, Yuanquan Song, Ran Kafri, Michael D. Taylor, Xuejun Li, Xi Huang

Francisco et al. show that chloride intracellular channel 1 (CLIC1) is an evolutionarily conserved regulator of brain tumor growth in Drosophila and medulloblastoma mouse models. CLIC1 cooperates with potassium channels to regulate cell volume homeostasis and rapid cycling of the tumor cells.

Stearoyl-CoA desaturase-1 controls foamy phagocyte function

Jeroen F.J. Bogie, Jeroen F.J. Bogie, Elien Grajchen, Elien Wouters, Aida Garcia Corrales, Tess Dierckx, Sam Vanherle, Jo Mailleux, Pascal Gervois, Esther Wolfs, Jonas Dehairs, Jana Van Broeckhoven, Andrew P. Bowman, Ivo Lambrichts, Jan-Åke Gustafsson, Alan T. Remaley, Monique Mulder, Johannes V. Swinnen, Mansour Haidar, Shane R. Ellis, James M. Ntambi, Noam Zelcer, Jerome J.A. Hendriks

In this study, Bogie, Grajchen et al. show that monounsaturated fatty acids formed by stearoyl-CoA desaturase-1 impair the reparative features of macrophages and microglia in demyelinating disorders by reducing their lipid efflux capacity.

STAT2 and type I interferonopathy

Conor Gruber, Marta Martin-Fernandez, Fatima Ailal, Xueer Qiu, Justin Taft, Jennie Altman, Jérémie Rosain, Sofija Buta, Aziz Bousfiha, Jean-Laurent Casanova, Jacinta Bustamante, Dusan Bogunovic

Gruber et al. describe a gain-of-function mutation in STAT2 that leads to a lethal autoinflammatory disease with autosomal recessive inheritance. This syndrome defines a novel form of type I interferonopathy characterized by impaired regulation of the type I IFN response.

Pro-inflammatory activation required for remyelination

Maria Inês Cunha, Minhui Su, Ludovico Cantuti-Castelvetri, Stephan A. Müller, Martina Schifferer, Minou Djannatian, Ioannis Alexopoulos, Franziska van der Meer, Anne Winkler, Tjakko J. van Ham, Bettina Schmid, Stefan F. Lichtenthaler, Christine Stadelmann, Mikael Simons

We find that pro-inflammatory activation is required for remyelination after myelin injury. We impaired inflammatory signaling and found that microglia in lesioned animals were defective in phagosome maturation, debris clearance, and also in triggering the generation of new oligodendrocytes, a process which required TNF-α.

USP22 controls iNKT immunity

Yana Zhang, Yajun Wang, Beixue Gao, Yueqi Sun, Liang Cao, Samantha M. Genardi, Chyung-Ru Wang, HuaBin Li, Zhaolin Sun, Yanjie Yang, Deyu Fang

This study identifies USP22 as an essential regulator specifically for iNKT but not conventional T cell development. USP22 suppresses histone H2A monoubiquitination through its interaction with MED1 to partially control expression of genes required for iNKT cell development and differentiation.
