1 22685317 Naturally occurring effector CD8(+) T cells, with a KLRG1(hi) CD62L(lo) phenotype typical of short-lived effector CD8(+) T cells (SLECs), can be found in increased numbers in autoimmune-prone mice, most notably in mice homozygous for the san allele of Roquin.
2 22685317 When Roquin is mutated (Roquin(san)), effector CD8(+) T cells accumulate in a cell-autonomous manner, most prominently as SLEC-like effectors.
3 22685317 Excessive IFN-γ promotes the accumulation of SLEC-like cells, increases their T-bet expression, and enhances their granzyme B production in vivo.
4 22685317 This study identifies a novel mechanism that prevents accumulation of self-reactive cytotoxic effectors, highlighting the importance of regulating Ifng mRNA stability to maintain CD8(+) T cell homeostasis and prevent CD8-mediated autoimmunity.
