Abstrakt: T-cell receptor (TCR)-induced Ca 2+ signals are essential for T-cell activation and function. In this context, mitochondria play an important role and take up Ca 2+ to support elevated bioenergetic demands. However, the functional relevance of the mitochondrial-Ca 2+ -uniporter (MCU) complex in T-cells was not fully understood. Here, we demonstrate that TCR activation causes rapid mitochondrial Ca 2+ ( m Ca 2+ ) uptake in primary naive and effector human CD4 + T-cells. Compared to naive T-cells, effector T-cells display elevated m Ca 2+ and increased bioenergetic and metabolic output. Transcriptome and proteome analyses reveal molecular determinants involved in the TCR-induced functional reprogramming and identify signalling pathways and cellular functions regulated by MCU. Knockdown of MCUa (MCUa KD ), diminishes m Ca 2+ uptake, mitochondrial respiration and ATP production, as well as T-cell migration and cytokine secretion. Moreover, MCUa KD in rat CD4 + T-cells suppresses autoimmune responses in an experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) multiple sclerosis model. In summary, we demonstrate that m Ca 2+ uptake through MCU is essential for proper T-cell function and has a crucial role in autoimmunity. T-cell specific MCU inhibition is thus a potential tool for targeting autoimmune disorders.
