FoxP3-mediated blockage of ryanodine receptor 2 is the molecular basis for the contact-based suppression by regulatory T cells


ABSTRACT: The suppression mechanism of regulatory T cells (Tregs) is an intensely investigated topic. As our focus has shifted towards a model centered on indirect inhibition of dendritic cells, a universally applicable effector mechanism controlled by the transcription factor forkhead box P3 (FoxP3) expression has not been found. Here, we report that FoxP3 blocks the transcription of ER Ca2+-release channel ryanodine receptor 2 (RyR2). Reduced RyR2 shuts down basal Ca2+ oscillation in Tregs, which reduces m-Calpain activities that is needed for T cells to disengage from DCs, suggesting a persistent blockage of DC antigen presentation. RyR2 deficiency renders the CD4+ T cell pool to become immune suppressive, and behave in the same manner as FoxP3+ Tregs in viral infection, asthma, hypersensitivity, colitis and tumor development. In the absence of FoxP3, RyR2-deficient CD4+ T cells (CKO) rescue the systemic autoimmunity associated with Scurfy mice. Therefore, FoxP3-mediated Ca2+ signaling inhibition may be a central effector mechanism of Treg immune suppression.
