Uridine depletion impairs CD8⁺ T cell antitumor activity through N-glycosylation
Xiao et al. reveal that sorting nexin 17 (SNX17) promotes the synthesis of uridine phosphorylase 1 (UPP1) in tumor cells, leading to a decrease in uridine concentration within the tumor microenvironment (TME). This reduction subsequently impairs the antitumor efficacy of CD8⁺ T cells in the TME.

I'm excited about a new @biorxivpreprint.bsky.social story that just went live! This one takes a #computational #immunology approach to understanding #tissueresident lymphocytes. The story highlights the extra value mathematical modelling can bring to biology. 🧵1/10 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
biorxiv.org
Probabilistic migration events drive transient tissue residency of lymphocytes during homeostasis
Tissue-resident lymphocytes form a phenotypically and functionally distinct analog to the corresponding circulatory lymphocyte populations. Residential CD8 T cells, in particular, are identified as having prolonged residence in the tissues and key functions in recall responses at tissue-environmental interfaces, although the dwell time in individual tissues has yet to be resolved. Residential CD4 T cells, regulatory T cells, B cells, and NK cells have been demonstrated to share phenotypic properties with residential CD8 T cells, but the migratory kinetics are even more poorly defined. Here we used probabilistic modelling on a large parabiosis dataset, covering multiple time-points and tissues, to calculate migration kinetics and dwell times of multiple lymphocyte subsets across a diverse set of tissues. Markov chain modelling identified distinct cell type-specific and tissue-specific residency patterns. The liver and gut were prone to prolonged residency compared to other tissue types, and a hierarchy of residency was observed with CD8 T cells and NK cells demonstrating longer residency than CD4 conventional T cells and regulatory T cells, which in turn resided in tissues longer than B cells. With few exceptions, however, average residency was at least an order of magnitude shorter than the life-span of the mouse, indicating a more dynamic form of steady-state tissue residency than usually assumed. Together these data provide a comprehensive model of a pan-tissue shared program in lymphocyte tissue residence, as well as identifying cell type- and organ-specific modification of the migratory kinetics. ### Competing Interest Statement The authors have declared no competing interest.

We extracted turnover data for CD4, CD8, Treg, B cells and NK cells from 17 tissue sources, and generated a sophisticated model of migration, activation and death for each lineage and tissue. The Markov chain modelling found high-confidence solutions that matched the empirical data beautifully. 3/10
