April 25, 2021 //---It is well known that the transcription factor IRF4 is necessary for CD8 + T cell activation, proliferation and differentiation into effector cells, so it is essential for CD8 + T cell response
.
However, the function of IRF4 in memory CD8 + T cells remains to be explored
.
In order to study the role of IRF4 in the maintenance of differentiation and the survival of CD8+ memory T cells, Friederike Raczkowski's team from the University of Hamburg, Germany used a mouse model of tamoxifen-induced Irf4 knockout, revealing that IRF4 has effects on CD8+ memory T The role of cells, related results were published in the recent "PNAS" magazine

.
In the absence of IRF4, CD8+ T cell activation is impaired, and it may also affect the development and number of CD8+ memory T cells
.
In this regard, the authors used an inducible Irf4 gene deletion mouse model to rule out the inefficient differentiation of memory cells due to the lack of IRF4
.
Irf4 fl/fl mice are crossed with CreERT2 mice.
In Irf4fl/fl mice, Cre-mediated gene recombination will result in the loss of exons I and II in the Irf4 gene and the constitutive expression of green fluorescent protein (GFP)

Afterwards, the mice were infected with Ovalbumin recombinant Listeria, and after the pathogen was eliminated, Irf4 knockout was induced
.
The results showed that the loss of IRF4 caused the phenotypic changes of CD8+ memory T cells, but did not lead to a decrease in the total memory T cell population
.
However, after encountering the pathogen again, the expansion capacity and effect of CD8 + memory T cells were significantly impaired
.
Further studies have shown that compared with CD8+ effector memory T cells, CD8+ tissue-resident memory T cells (TRM cells) express higher levels of IRF4
.
Constitutive Irf4 knockout mice reduced the number of CD8 + TRM cells, while tamoxifen-induced Irf4 deletion resulted in a decrease in the number of cells

In summary, the findings indicate that IRF4 is required for effective activation, not for the general survival of CD8+ memory T cells
.
In contrast, the formation and maintenance of CD8 + TRM cells seems to depend on IRF4
