T cell asymmetry and metabolic crosstalk can fine-tune immunological synapses.
2021
T cell asymmetry upon specific cell–cell interactions during mammalian immunological synapse (IS) contacts requires mammalian target of rapamycin complex (mTORC) activation and chaperones, such as the eukaryotic chaperonin containing TCP1 (CCT) for protein synthesis and folding. This mechanism can control cytoskeleton dynamics, and regulate mitochondrial fate, respiration, and metabolic rates, ultimately underlying cell reprogramming events that are relevant for CD4+ T cell functional outcomes.
