We have previously shown that human γδ T cells acquire this profile upon stimulation with IL-2 or IL-15, in a differentiation process dependent on MAPK/ERK signaling. Here, we identify microRNA-181a as a key modulator of human γδ T cell differentiation. We observe that miR-181a is highly expressed in patients with prostate cancer and that this pattern associates with lower expression of NKG2D, a critical mediator of cancer surveillance. Interestingly, miR-181a expression negatively correlates with an activated type 1 effector profile obtained from in vitro differentiated γδ T cells and miR-181a overexpression restricts their levels of NKG2D and TNF-α. Upon in silico analysis, we identify two miR-181a candidate targets, Map3k2 and Notch2, which we validate via overexpression coupled with luciferase assays. These results reveal a novel role for miR-181a as critical regulator of human γδ T cell differentiation and highlight its potential for manipulation of γδ T cells in next-generation immunotherapies.This work was funded by the Fundação para a Ciência e Tecnologia (FCT) (IF/00013/2014 to J.C.R., SFRH/BD/128866/2017 to G.G.), Fundo de Investigação para a Saúde/INFARMED (FIS-FIS-2015-01_ONC_20150630-162 to J.C.R), and “la Caixa” Foundation (ID 100010434) under the agreement LCF/PR/HR19/52160011 (to B.S.-S.).
