Thymocyte differentiation is a highly complex process that is accompanied by epigenetic changes. Ubiquitin-like containing PHD ring finger 1 (UHRF1) is a critical epigenetic modifier involved in various cellular processes. In this study, we demonstrated that it is highly expressed in T cell precursors of the thymus.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates how extrinsic factors and intrinsic signal strength affect thymocyte (T cell precursor) development, focusing on the role of mTORC1 in this process.
  • It reveals that mTORC1 interacts with metabolic programs to influence the development of two major T cell lineages, αβ and γδ T cells, by controlling metabolic processes like glycolysis and oxidative phosphorylation.
  • The research identifies mTORC1’s role in regulating reactive oxygen species as a crucial factor in determining the developmental fate of thymocytes, linking T cell receptor and NOTCH signals to metabolic activity.
