Abstract

The evolutionally conserved forkhead box O (Foxo) family of transcription factors is pivotal in the control of nutrient sensing and stress responses. Recent studies have revealed that the Foxo proteins have been rewired to regulate highly specialized T cell activities. Here, we review the latest advances in the understanding of how Foxo transcription factors control T cell biology, including T cell trafficking, naive T cell homeostasis, effector and memory responses, as well as the differentiation and function of regulatory T cells. We also discuss the emerging evidence on Foxo-mediated regulation in antitumor immunity. Future work will further explore how the Foxo-dependent programs in T cells can be exploited for cancer immunotherapy.

  • In T cells, AKT/FOXO signalling controls cell differentiation and adaptation to nutrients and stress.

    “in T cells, the AKT/FOXO signalling controls cell differentiation and adaptation to nutrients and stress [85,86].”

    From Phosphatidylinositol(4,5)bisphosphate: diverse functions at the plasma membrane (2020) · cites this paper as [86]

    The Abstract and the section on regulatory T cell development support a role for Foxo and Akt–Foxo signalling in T-cell differentiation. The Abstract and Introduction describe Foxo’s role in nutrient sensing and stress responses as a general cellular function, but do not establish that Akt–Foxo signalling controls T-cell adaptation to nutrients and stress.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
