Comparison of young and aged mouse CD8 TN, TVM and TMEM cells directly ex vivo and after polyclonal stimulation


ABSTRACT: The overall study (Quinn et al. Cell Reports, 2018) aimed to understand why CD8 virtual memory T (TVM) cells become markedly less proliferative in response to TCR-driven signals with increasing age, whereas CD8 true naive (TN) cells maintain their proliferative capacity. Age-associated decreases in primary CD8+ T cell responses occur, in part, due to direct effects on naïve CD8++ T cells to reduce intrinsic functionality, but the precise nature of this defect remains undefined. Ageing also causes accumulation of antigen-naïve but semi-differentiated “virtual memory” (TVM) cells but their contribution to age-related functional decline is unclear. Here, we show that TVM cells are poorly proliferative in aged mice and humans, despite being highly proliferative in young individuals, while conventional naïve T cells (TN cells) retain proliferative capacity in both aged mice and humans. Adoptive transfer experiments in mice illustrated that naïve CD8 T cells can acquire a proliferative defect imposed by the aged environment but age-related proliferative dysfunction could not be rescued by a young environment. Molecular analyses demonstrate that aged TVM cells exhibit a profile consistent with senescence, marking the first description of senescence in an antigenically naïve T cell population.
