Iron capture through CD71 dictates perinatal and tumoral Treg expansion modulating iron homeostasis and gut microbiota colonization


ABSTRACT: Beside suppressing immune responses, regulatory T cells (Tregs) maintain tissue homeostasis and control systemic metabolism. Whether iron, a fundamental element for all living cells, is required for Treg expansion, is completely unknown. Here, we showed that the transferrin receptor CD71 was upregulated on activated proliferating Tregs infiltrating human liver cancer. Mice with a Treg-restricted CD71 deficiency spontaneously developed a scurfy-like disease, caused by a severe impairment in perinatal Treg expansion. CD71-null Tregs display decreased proliferation and mitochondrial functions, and a tissue-Treg signature loss. In the perinatal life, CD71 deficiency in Tregs triggered a hepatic response to iron overload, characterized by increased hepcidin transcription and iron accumulation in macrophages. A lower bacterial diversity, and a reduction of beneficial species, were detected in the faecal microbiota of CD71 conditional knock-out neonates. Our findings indicate that the CD71-mediated iron absorption is required for Treg perinatal expansion and controls the systemic iron homeostasis, which in turn shapes the bacterial gut colonization.
