CD39 Expression Identifies Terminally Exhausted CD8 T Cells

English version České info

Chronic viral infection induces an acquired state of T cell dysfunction known as exhaustion. Discovering surface markers of exhausted T cells is important for both to identify exhausted T cells as well as to develop potential therapies. We report that the ectonucleotidase CD39 is expressed by T cells specific for chronic viral infections in humans and a mouse model, but is rare in T cells following clearance of acute infections. In the mouse model of chronic viral infection, CD39 demarcates a subpopulation of dysfunctional, exhausted CD8+ T cells with the phenotype of irreversible exhaustion. CD39 expression therefore identifies terminal CD8+ T cell exhaustion in mice and humans, and implicates the purinergic pathway in the regulation of exhaustion.
