TOX transcriptionally and epigenetically programs CD8+ T cell exhaustion
Open accessAbstract
Exhausted CD8+ T (T ex) cells in chronic infections and cancer have limited effector function, high co-expression of inhibitory receptors and extensive transcriptional changes compared with effector (T eff) or memory (T mem) CD8+ T cells. T ex cells are important clinical targets of checkpoint blockade and other immunotherapies. Epigenetically, T ex cells are a distinct immune subset, with a unique chromatin landscape compared with T eff and T mem cells. However, the mechanisms that govern the transcriptional and epigenetic development of T ex cells remain unknown. Here we identify the HMG-box transcription factor TOX as a central regulator of T ex cells in mice. TOX is largely dispensable for the formation of T eff and T mem cells, but it is critical for exhaustion: in the absence of TOX, T ex cells do not form. TOX is induced by calcineurin and NFAT2, and operates in a feed-forward loop in which it becomes calcineurin-independent and sustained in T ex cells. Robust expression of TOX therefore results in commitment to T ex cells by translating persistent stimulation into a distinct T ex cell transcriptional and epigenetic developmental 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.
