T independent antigen elicits antibody production by B lymphocytes without T lymphocyte involvement. There are 2 distinct subgroups of TI antigens, different in mechanism of activating B lymphocytes. TI-1 antigen , which has an activity that can directly activate B cells and TI-2 antigen ,...

They have also been noted for perpetuating chronic inflammation. The conditions responsible for T RM differentiation are still poorly understood, and their contributions, if any, to sterile models of chronic kidney disease (CKD) remain a mystery. In this study, we subjected male C57BL/6J mice and OT-1 transgenic mice to five consecutive days of 2 mg/kg aristolochic acid (AA) injections intraperitoneally to induce CKD or saline injections as a control. We evaluated their kidney immune profiles at 2 wk, 6 wk, and 6 mo after treatment. We identified a substantial population of T RM s in the kidneys of mice with AA-induced CKD. Flow cytometry of injured kidneys showed T cells bearing T RM surface markers and single-cell (sc) RNA sequencing revealed these cells as expressing well-known T RM transcription factors and receptors responsible for T RM differentiation and maintenance. Although kidney T RM s expressed Cd44 , a marker of antigen experience and T cell activation, their derivation was independent of cognate antigen-T cell receptor interactions, as the kidneys of transgenic OT-1 mice still harbored considerable proportions of T RM s after injury. Our results suggest a nonantigen-specific or antigen-independent mechanism capable of generating T RM s in the kidney and highlight the need to better understand T RM s and their involvement in CKD. NEW & NOTEWORTHY Resident memory T cells (T RM s) differentiate and are retained within the kidneys of mice with aristolochic acid (AA)-induced chronic kidney disease (CKD). Here, we characterized this kidney T RM population and demonstrated T RM derivation in the kidneys of OT-1 transgenic mice with AA-induced CKD. A better understanding of T RM s and the processes by which they can differentiate independent of antigen may help our understanding of the interactions between the immune system and kidneys. ; Publication Type, Journal Article; Research Support, N.I.H., Extramural; Research Support, Non-U.S. Gov't
