DOCK8 mutations result in an inherited combined immunodeficiency characterized by increased susceptibility to skin and other infections. We show that when DOCK8-deficient T and NK cells migrate through confined spaces, they develop cell shape and nuclear deformation abnormalities that do not impair chemotaxis but contribute to a distinct form of catastrophic cell death we term cytothripsis. Such defects arise during lymphocyte migration in collagen-dense tissues when DOCK8, through CDC42 and p21-activated kinase (PAK), is unavailable to coordinate cytoskeletal structures. Cytothripsis of DOCK8-deficient cells prevents the generation of long-lived skin-resident memory CD8 T cells, which in turn impairs control of herpesvirus skin infections. Our results establish that DOCK8-regulated shape integrity of lymphocytes prevents cytothripsis and promotes antiviral immunity in the skin.

View all literature mentionsA research program of the NIA which focuses on neuroscience, aging biology, and translational gerontology. The central focus of the program's research is understanding age-related changes in physiology and the ability to adapt to environmental stress, and using that understanding to develop insight about the pathophysiology of age-related diseases. The IRP webpage provides access to other NIH resources such as the Biological Biochemical Image Database, the Bioinformatics Portal, and the Baltimore Longitudinal Study of Aging.
