Abstract

Despite the increasing knowledge of the molecular events that induce the glycolysis pathway in effector T cells, very little is known about the transcriptional mechanisms that dampen the glycolysis program in quiescent cell populations such as memory T cells. Here we found that the transcription factor Bcl-6 directly repressed genes encoding molecules involved in the glycolysis pathway, including Slc2a1, Slc2a3, Pkm and Hk2, in type 1 helper T cells (TH1 cells) exposed to low concentrations of interleukin 2 (IL-2). Thus, Bcl-6 had a role opposing the IL-2-sensitive glycolytic transcriptional program that the transcription factors c-Myc and HIF-1α promote in effector T cells. Additionally, the TH1 lineage–specifying factor T-bet functionally antagonized the Bcl-6-dependent repression of genes encoding molecules in the glycolysis pathway, which links the molecular balance of these two factors to regulation of the metabolic gene program.

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.
