text: T cells are actively scanning pMHC-presenting cells in lymphoid organs and
nonlymphoid tissues (NLTs) with divergent topologies and confinement. How the
T cell actomyosin cytoskeleton facilitates this task in distinct environments
is incompletely understood. Here, we show that lack of Myosin IXb (Myo9b), a negative
regulator of the small GTPase Rho, led to increased Rho-GTP levels and cell surface
stiffness in primary T cells. Nonetheless, intravital imaging revealed robust
motility of Myo9b−/− CD8+ T cells in lymphoid tissue and similar expansion and
differentiation during immune responses. In contrast, accumulation of Myo9b−/−
CD8+ T cells in NLTs was strongly impaired. Specifically, Myo9b was required for
T cell crossing of basement membranes, such as those which are present between
dermis and epidermis. As consequence, Myo9b−/− CD8+ T cells showed impaired control
of skin infections. In sum, we show that Myo9b is critical for the CD8+ T cell
adaptation from lymphoid to NLT surveillance and the establishment of protective
tissue–resident T cell populations.
