1. #Commnesal S. epidermidis–specific -#MIIINA:H2-M3+ CD8+ T cells ordinarily differentiate into Tc1 or Tc17 subsets. However, when co-exposed to chitin or sand fly (source of #inflammation), Tc17 subset also produce type II cytokines. pic.twitter.com/g9Wy7BncPD— David Usharauli (@3DiMMUNE) January 10, 2019
3. In any case, such deviation into type II cytokine+ lineage during co-exposure to S. epidermidis and inflammation is specific for CD8+CCR6+ cells (referred to as Tc17). pic.twitter.com/6uNCVHMtEz— David Usharauli (@3DiMMUNE) January 10, 2019
5. The authors tried to show how skin #Treg deficiency could have the same effect on Tc17 de-differentiation. Again. the authors failed to show that IL-17+ and IL-5/IL-13+ Tc17 cells overlap. They don't. They put in suppl material these #data. Should be in main paper. pic.twitter.com/QupGc7HWLo— David Usharauli (@3DiMMUNE) January 10, 2019
7. But again, no evidence is provided that IL-17+ T cells co-express IL-5 or IL-13 when exposed to IL-18. Exactly opposite. No overlap. pic.twitter.com/QG8U9EBSSH— David Usharauli (@3DiMMUNE) January 10, 2019
So, what is my conclusions: this paper does not support the authors' conclusions about Tc17 acquiring Tc2 phenotype. Yes, it is true that RORgt+ or CCR6+ CD8+ T cells could acquire Tc2 phenotype but the same not true IL-17+ Tc17 cells or at least data are not there.— David Usharauli (@3DiMMUNE) January 10, 2019
