Insights into the role of de novo fatty acid synthesis in IL-17-producing γδ T cells upon psoriatic inflammation

γδ T cells produce the primary innate source of IL-17 (γδT17) and are known to play a critical role in autoimmune and inflammatory diseases such as psoriasis. We here reported that psoriatic condition (IL-1b and IL-23) reshaped metabolic signatures and effector function of γδT17 cells compared to homeostatic condition (IL-7). Acetyl-CoA carboxylase 1 (ACC1), a rate-limiting enzyme of fatty acid synthesis (FAS), directs the fate of IL-17-producing CD4 T cells (Th17) differentiation. However, little is known about the role of ACC1-mediated FAS in their innate IL-17-producer counterpart, γδT17 cells. We further investigated the role of FAS in γδT17 by comparing the effect of pharmacological ACC inhibitor Soraphen A (SorA) on DMSO vehicle under psoriatic conditions (IL-1b and IL-23) to provide insights for clinical implication.
