NR4A1 limits CD8 <sup>+</sup> T Cell effector responses and protection in tuberculosis
2026-01-13
Abstract excerpt
During Mycobacterium tuberculosis ( Mtb ) infection, CD8 + T cells exhibit dysfunction with impaired cytotoxicity and limited localization to granuloma cores. Using knockout mice, adoptive-transfer models and validation in macaque and human datasets, we identified the nuclear receptor NR4A1 as a key restrainer of CD8 + T cell immunity in tuberculosis (TB). Mtb -infected Nr4a1 -/- mice displayed reduced bacte...
