NIX-Mediated Mitophagy Promotes Effector Memory Formation in Antigen-Specific CD8(+) T Cells

Autophagy plays a critical role in the maintenance of immunological memory. However, the molecular mechanisms involved in autophagy-regulated effector memory formation in CD8(+) T cells remain unclear. Here we show that deficiency in NIX-dependent mitophagy leads to metabolic defects in effector mem...

description Autophagy plays a critical role in the maintenance of immunological memory. However, the molecular mechanisms involved in autophagy-regulated effector memory formation in CD8(+) T cells remain unclear. Here we show that deficiency in NIX-dependent mitophagy leads to metabolic defects in effector memory T cells. Deletion of NIX caused HIF1α accumulation and altered cellular metabolism from long-chain fatty acid to short/branched-chain fatty acid oxidation, thereby compromising ATP synthesis during effector memory formation. Preventing HIF1α accumulation restored long-chain fatty acid metabolism and effector memory formation in antigen-specific CD8(+) T cells. Our study suggests that NIX-mediated mitophagy is critical for effector memory formation in T cells.
