“…Furthermore, failure of a population to exchange in parabiosis does not imply that cells of that population are sessile and static. For example, in the absence of inflammation, Langerhans cells remain overwhelmingly host-derived in parabiotic mice (Merad et al, 2002), although they migrate continuously and unidirectionally from the epidermis to skin-draining lymph nodes (Bajaña et al, 2012; Ohl et al, 2004; Tomura et al, 2014). Additionally, imaging studies have shown that liver-resident iNKT cells, epidermis-resident CD8 + T RM cells, and intestine-resident ILCs exhibit dynamic behavior within their respective tissues (Gebhardt et al, 2011; Geissmann et al, 2005; Mackley et al, 2015; Pearson et al, 2016; Zaid et al, 2014) but self-renew locally and are not replaced by circulating precursors (Gasteiger et al, 2015; Jiang et al, 2012; Thomas et al, 2011).…”

Although they are classically viewed as continuously recirculating through the lymphoid organs and blood, lymphocytes also establish residency in non-lymphoid tissues, most prominently at barrier sites, including the mucosal surfaces and skin. These specialized tissue-resident lymphocyte subsets span the innate-adaptive continuum and include innate lymphoid cells (ILCs), unconventional T cells (e.g., NKT, MAIT, γδ T cells, and CD8αα+IELs), and tissue-resident memory T (TRM) cells. Although these diverse cell types differ in the particulars of their biology, they nonetheless exhibit important shared features, including a role in the preservation of tissue integrity and function during homeostasis, infection, and non-infectious perturbations. In this Review, we discuss the hallmarks of tissue-resident innate, innate-like, and adaptive lymphocytes, as well as their potential functions in non-lymphoid organs.

Dendritic cells (DCs) are antigen-presenting cells specialized for activating T cells to elicit effector T-cell functions. Cross-presenting DCs are a DC subset capable of presenting antigens to CD8+ T cells and play critical roles in cytotoxic T-cell-mediated immune responses to microorganisms and cancer. Although their importance is known, the spatiotemporal dynamics of cross-presenting DCs in vivo are incompletely understood. Here, we study the T-cell zone in skin-draining lymph nodes (SDLNs) and find it is compartmentalized into regions for CD8 + T-cell activation by cross-presenting DCs that express the chemokine (C motif) receptor 1 gene, Xcr1 and for CD4 + T-cell activation by CD11b + DCs. Xcr1-expressing DCs in the SDLNs are composed of two different populations: migratory (CD103 hi ) DCs, which immigrate from the skin, and resident (CD8α hi ) DCs, which develop in the nodes. To characterize the dynamic interactions of these distinct DC populations with CD8 + T cells during their activation in vivo, we developed a photoconvertible reporter mouse strain, which permits us to distinctively visualize the migratory and resident subsets of Xcr1-expressing DCs. After leaving the skin, migratory DCs infiltrated to the deep T-cell zone of the SDLNs over 3 d, which corresponded to their half-life in the SDLNs. Intravital two-photon imaging showed that after soluble antigen immunization, the newly arriving migratory DCs more efficiently form sustained conjugates with antigen-specific CD8 + T cells than other Xcr1-expressing DCs in the SDLNs. These results offer in vivo evidence for differential contributions of migratory and resident cross-presenting DCs to CD8 + T-cell activation.dendritic cell | CD8 + T cell | cross-presentation | intravital two-photon imaging | photoconversion
