Uveitis, an autoimmune disease, often leads to blindness. CD4+ T cells, including regulatory T cells (Tregs) and effector T cells (Th1 and Th17), play a critical role in its pathogenesis. Caloric restriction (CR) has been shown to alleviate autoimmune diseases. However, careful characterization of the impact of CR on experimental autoimmune uveitis (EAU) is poorly understood. This study used single-cell RNA sequencing to analyze cervical draining lymph nodes in mice under ad libitum (AL) and CR diets, with or without EAU. CR increased Tregs, altered immune cell metabolism, reduced EAU symptoms, and downregulated inflammatory and glycolysis genes. Flow cytometry confirmed CR’s inhibitory effect on Th1 and Th17 proliferation and its promotion of Treg proliferation. CR also balanced CD4+ T cells by inhibiting the PI3K/AKT/c-Myc pathway and reducing GM-CSF in Th17 cells. These findings suggest CR as a potential therapeutic strategy for autoimmune diseases.
期刊介绍:
Science has many big remaining questions. To address them, we will need to work collaboratively and across disciplines. The goal of iScience is to help fuel that type of interdisciplinary thinking. iScience is a new open-access journal from Cell Press that provides a platform for original research in the life, physical, and earth sciences. The primary criterion for publication in iScience is a significant contribution to a relevant field combined with robust results and underlying methodology. The advances appearing in iScience include both fundamental and applied investigations across this interdisciplinary range of topic areas. To support transparency in scientific investigation, we are happy to consider replication studies and papers that describe negative results.
We know you want your work to be published quickly and to be widely visible within your community and beyond. With the strong international reputation of Cell Press behind it, publication in iScience will help your work garner the attention and recognition it merits. Like all Cell Press journals, iScience prioritizes rapid publication. Our editorial team pays special attention to high-quality author service and to efficient, clear-cut decisions based on the information available within the manuscript. iScience taps into the expertise across Cell Press journals and selected partners to inform our editorial decisions and help publish your science in a timely and seamless way.
