TFAM Dependent Mitochondrial Fitness Limits CD8⁺ T Cell Immunopathology and Sustains Protective Immunity during Viral Pneumonia

During respiratory virus infection, CD8+ T cells kill infected cells and establish antigen-specific memory, but mechanisms regulating these functions remain incompletely understood. Here, we identify mitochondrial transcription factor A (TFAM)-dependent mitochondrial fitness as a regulator of CD8+ T cell function durin...

Caspase-11–mediated hyperinflammation impairs CD8+ T cell immunity and viral clearance in severe SARS-CoV-2 infection

Severe SARS-CoV-2 infection is characterized by lung hyperinflammation, impaired IFN responses, and defective T cell activation, yet the molecular drivers of these immune dysregulations remain incompletely understood. Caspase-11 (CASP11), a key effector of the noncanonical inflammasome, has been shown to mediate an inn...

NAT10 is critical to block RNA sensing-induced IFN-β transactivation in viral infection

ABSTRACT Cells detect invading viruses and produce type I interferons (IFNs) to stimulate an innate antiviral effector response. However, IFN levels must be fine-tuned to achieve antiviral efficacy while limiting hyperinflammatory and tissue-damaging effects. Here, we report that NAT10, a histone and cytidine acetyltra...
