Paper
Organ injury in systemic autoimmunity is mediated by stem-like CD8(+) T cells arising from tissue-draining lymph nodesImmunity · 2026
Summary (written by the submitters)
Chronic antigen exposure in cancer and infection generates hypofunctional, stem-like CD8 T cells that replenish tissue effector cells for tumor or pathogen control. CD8 T cells infiltrate kidneys in systemic lupus erythematosus, but their origin, differentiation, and function remain incompletely understood.
Read the full summary ↓
We identified in lupus-prone mice TCF1⁺ stem-like CD8 T cells in renal-draining lymph nodes that underwent TCR-dependent, antigen-driven expansion with differentiation into cytotoxic kidney-infiltrating cells that promoted tissue injury contingent on CD4 T cell help and IL-21/IL-15 signaling. CD8 T cell differentiation was marked by persistent AP-1 activity and cytotoxic function despite immune checkpoint upregulation. We found a parallel program of CD8 T cell differentiation in kidneys of patients with lupus nephritis, reflecting shared pathogenesis. This T cell differentiation program is analogous to that in chronic infections and cancer, indicating conservation across states of chronic antigen stimulation; however, CD8 T cells in systemic autoimmunity retain effector function despite terminal differentiation.

Download · which file do I need?

Direct links to NCBI and ENA, no account and no request form. Pick by what you want to do: take the small processed table to look, the supplementary files to re-analyse, or the original raw data to start over.

1 · Just have a look

Processed table

The series matrix: one table of values per sample as the submitters processed it. The smallest download, and it opens in Excel or R. Start here to see what the data look like.

2 · Re-analyse it

Supplementary files

The count tables and other files the authors uploaded. Take only the samples you need, or the whole study as GSE318514_RAW.tar (it can run to tens of gigabytes).

3 · Start from the raw reads

Raw sequencing reads

The original FASTQ files, straight from the sequencer, held at ENA. Large, and you align them yourself, so only choose this if you need to re-process the study from scratch.

What the files usually look like: Look for peak files (.bed, .narrowPeak) and signal tracks (.bigWig) among the supplementary files; the raw reads are on ENA.

Also filed as BioProject PRJNA1419135 and SRA study SRP674846. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.

Study design
45 samples, each with a distinct title — no replicated groups

Any grouping that defines a comparison lives in the sample characteristics, which GEO records separately from the titles.

How we read this: Read from 45 sample titles: 45 distinct titles with little repetition. These groups are guessed from the sample names, not taken from the paper, so check them against the sample list below before relying on them.
