T_RM at barrier surfaces express the markers CD103 and/or CD69, which function to retain them in epithelial tissues. In humans, neither the long-term migratory behavior of T_RM nor their ability to reenter the circulation and potentially migrate to distant tissue sites has been investigated. Using tissue explant cultures, we found that CD4⁺CD69⁺CD103⁺ T_RM in human skin can down-regulate CD69 and exit the tissue. In addition, we identified a skin-tropic CD4⁺CD69^-CD103⁺ population in human lymph and blood that is transcriptionally, functionally, and clonally related to the CD4⁺CD69⁺CD103⁺ T_RM population in the skin. Using a skin xenograft model, we confirmed that a fraction of the human cutaneous CD4⁺CD103⁺ T_RM population can reenter circulation and migrate to secondary human skin sites where they reassume a T_RM phenotype. Thus, our data challenge current concepts regarding the strict tissue compartmentalization of CD4⁺ T cell memory in humans.22:T414,This guideline were initiated by DEBRA International; financial support was provided by DEBRA Austria.

In this study, we have corrected a causal hotspot mutation in exon 6 of the keratin 14 gene (KRT14) that results in generalized severe epidermolysis bullosa simplex (EBS-gen sev), using a double-nicking strategy targeting intron 7, followed by homology-directed repair (HDR). Co-delivery into EBS keratinocytes of a Cas9 D10A nickase (Cas9n), a predicted single guide RNA pair specific for intron 7, and a minicircle donor vector harboring the homology donor template resulted in a recombination efficiency of >30% and correction of the mutant KRT14 allele. Phenotypic correction of EBS-gen sev keratinocytes was demonstrated by immunofluorescence analysis, revealing the absence of disease-associated K14 aggregates within the cytoplasm. We achieved a promising safety profile for the CRISPR/Cas9 double-nicking approach, with no detectable off-target activity for a set of predicted off-target genes as confirmed by next gen
