Abstract | Although the role of aerobic glycolysis in activated T cells has been well characterized, whether and how fatty acids (FAs) contribute to donor T cell function in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is unclear. Using xenogeneic graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) models, this study demonstrated that exogenous FAs serve as a crucial source of mitochondrial respiration in donor T cells in humans. By comparing human T cells isolated from wild-type NOD/Shi-scid-IL2rγnull (NOG) mice with those from MHC class I/II-deficient NOG mice, we found that donor T cells increased extracellular FA uptake, the extent of which correlates with their proliferation, and continued to increase FA uptake during effector differentiation. Gene expression analysis showed the upregulation of a wide range of lipid metabolism-related genes, including lipid hydrolysis, mitochondrial FA transport, and FA oxidation. Extracellular flux analysis demonstrated that mitochondrial FA transport was required to fully achieve the mitochondrial maximal respiration rate and spare respiratory capacity, whereas the substantial disruption of glucose supply by either glucose deprivation or mitochondrial pyruvate transport blockade did not impair oxidative phosphorylation. Taken together, FA-driven mitochondrial respiration is a hallmark that differentiates TCR-dependent T cell activation from TCR-independent immune response after hematopoietic stem cell transplant. |
