MiR-15/16 clusters restrict effector Treg cell differentiation and function


ABSTRACT: Effector regulatory T cells (eTregs) exhibit distinct homeostatic properties and superior suppressor capacities pivotal for controlling immune responses mediated by their conventional T cell counterpart. While the role of microRNAs (miRNAs) in Tregs has been well-established, how miRNAs regulate eTregs remains poorly understood. Here, we demonstrate that miR-15/16 clusters act as key regulators in limiting eTreg responses. Loss of miR-15/16 clusters leads to increased eTreg frequencies with enhanced suppressor function. Consequently, mice with Treg-specific ablation of miR-15/16 clusters display attenuated immune responses during neuroinflammation and upon both infectious and non-infectious challenges. Mechanistically, miR-15/16 clusters exert their regulatory effect in part through repressing IRF4, a transcription factor essential for eTreg differentiation and function. Moreover, miR-15/16 clusters also directly target neuritin, an IRF4-dependent molecule, known for its role in Treg-mediated regulation of plasma cell responses. Together, we identify an miRNA family that controls an important Treg subset and further demonstrate that eTreg responses are tightly regulated at both transcriptional and posttranscriptional levels.
