2019, Journal of Biological ChemistryCitation Excerpt :It has also been shown that although glutamine helps differentiation of T cells to effector phenotypes (22), the deficiency of glutamine can result in the formation of Tregs (22). Importantly, higher glutamine levels in Pmel–Trx T cells would have led to down-regulation of CD95 and CD95L expression and up-regulation of memory marker CD45RO and Bcl-2 expression, as has been shown earlier (53). Thus, the results presented here in support of the role of Trx in regulating redox status of adoptively transferred T cells and that Trx-mediated “antioxidant help” in vivo may be important in generating long-lived antitumor memory T cells in the oxidative tumor microenvironment.
