Parkinson’s disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disease. Brain neuroinflammation plays a role in PD pathogenesis. However, the involvement of the peripheral immune system has not been systematically investigated. Here we analyzed >700 combinatorial immunological features in fresh blood of 28 early-to-mid-stage PD patients and 24 matched controls. We found an enhanced cytotoxic immune profile in idiopathic PD patients (iPD), with a higher frequency of terminally-differentiated effector CD8 T (TEMRA), late-differentiated CD8+ natural killer T cells and neutrophils. This immune profile was intensified by elevated serum granzyme A, reduced percentages of CD8+FOXP3+ regulatory T cells and group 2 innate lymphoid cells with immunosuppressive or tolerance-inducing functions. The frequency of CD8 TEMRA was negatively correlated with disease duration, suggesting a contribution to PD pathogenesis. Our work provides a comprehensive map on disturbed peripheral adaptive and innate immune cells in early-to-mid iPD, proposing easily-accessible candidates for early diagnosis and treatments.

Decline in immune function during aging increases susceptibility to different aging‐related diseases. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms, especially the genetic factors contributing to imbalance of naïve/memory T‐cell subpopulations, still remain largely elusive. Here, we show that loss of DJ‐1 encoded by PARK7/DJ‐1, causing early‐onset familial Parkinson’s disease (PD), unexpectedly diminished signs of immunoaging in T‐cell compartments of both human and mice. Compared with two gender‐matched unaffected siblings of similar ages, the index PD patient with DJ‐1 deficiency showed a decline in many critical immunoaging features, including almost doubled non‐senescent T cells. The observation was further consolidated by the results in 45‐week‐old DJ‐1 knockout mice. Our data demonstrated that DJ‐1 regulates several immunoaging features via hematopoietic‐intrinsic and naïve‐CD8‐intrinsic mechanisms. Mechanistically, DJ‐1 depletion reduced oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) and impaired TCR sensitivity in naïve CD8 T cells at a young age, accumulatively leading to a reduced aging process in T‐cell compartments in older mice. Our finding suggests an unrecognized critical role of DJ‐1 in regulating immunoaging, discovering a potent target to interfere with immunoaging‐ and aging‐associated diseases. [less ▲]
