Abstract

We found upregulation of expression of the microRNA miR-155 in primary effector and effector memory CD8+ T cells, but low miR-155 expression in naive and central memory cells. Antiviral CD8+ T cell responses and viral clearance were impaired in miR-155-deficient mice, and this defect was intrinsic to CD8+ T cells, as miR-155-deficient CD8+ T cells mounted greatly diminished primary and memory responses. Conversely, miR-155 overexpression augmented antiviral CD8+ T cell responses in vivo. Gene-expression profiling showed that miR-155-deficient CD8+ T cells had enhanced type I interferon signaling and were more susceptible to interferon's antiproliferative effect. Inhibition of the type I interferon–associated transcription factors STAT1 or IRF7 resulted in enhanced responses of miR-155-deficient CD8+ T cells in vivo. We have thus identified a previously unknown role for miR-155 in regulating responsiveness to interferon and CD8+ T cell responses to pathogens in vivo.

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.
