Journal ArticleDOI
CXCR6 regulates localization of tissue-resident memory CD8 T cells to the airways

TL;DR: This work shows that the CXCR6/CXCL16 axis governs the partitioning of TRM cells to different compartments of the lung and maintains the airway TRM cell pool.
Journal ArticleDOI
Specific niches for lung-resident memory CD8+ T cells at the site of tissue regeneration enable CD69-independent maintenance.
Shiki Takamura,Hideki Yagi,Yoshiyuki Hakata,Chihiro Motozono,Sean R. McMaster,Tomoko Masumoto,Makoto Fujisawa,Tomomi Chikaishi,Junko Komeda,Jun Itoh,Miki Umemura,Ami Kyusai,Michio Tomura,Toshinori Nakayama,David L. Woodland,Jacob E. Kohlmeier,Masaaki Miyazawa +16 more
TL;DR: It is shown that most lung CD8+ TRM cells are not maintained in the inducible bronchus-associated lymphoid tissue (iBALT) but are maintained in specific niches created at the site of tissue regeneration, which are termed as repair-associated memory depots (RAMDs).
Journal ArticleDOI
Interstitial-resident memory CD8+ T cells sustain frontline epithelial memory in the lung.
Shiki Takamura,Shigeki Kato,Chihiro Motozono,Takeshi Shimaoka,Satoshi Ueha,Kazuhiko Matsuo,Kosuke Miyauchi,Tomoko Masumoto,Asami Katsushima,Takashi Nakayama,Michio Tomura,Kouji Matsushima,Masato Kubo,Masaaki Miyazawa +13 more
TL;DR: Tissue-resident lung memory CD8+TRM cells in the lung interstitium and airways are compartmentally separated from TEM cells, and lung airway TRM cells are primarily maintained by the continuous seeding of cells from the lung Interstitum.
Journal ArticleDOI
Infection of Adult Thymus with Murine Retrovirus Induces Virus-Specific Central Tolerance That Prevents Functional Memory CD8+ T Cell Differentiation
Shiki Takamura,Eiji Kajiwara,Sachiyo Tsuji-Kawahara,Tomoko Masumoto,Makoto Fujisawa,Maiko Kato,Tomomi Chikaishi,Yuri Kawasaki,Saori Kinoshita,Manami Itoi,Nobuo Sakaguchi,Masaaki Miyazawa +11 more
TL;DR: Findings indicate that virus-induced central tolerance that develops during the chronic phase of infection accelerates the accumulation of dysfunctional memory CD8+ T cells.
