T-cell development and activation are usually accompanied by expansion and production of numerous proteins that require active translation. The eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E (eIF4E) binds to the 5' cap structure of mRNA and is critical for cap-dependent translational initiation. It has been hypothesized that MAPK-interacting kinase 1 and 2 (Mnk1/2) promote cap-dependent translation by phosphorylating eIF4E at serine 209 (S209). Pharmacological studies utilizing inhibitors have suggested that Mnk1/2 play important roles in T-cells. However, genetic evidence supporting such conclusions is lacking. Moreover, the signaling pathways that regulate Mnk1/2 in T-cells remain unclear. We demonstrated here that T-cell receptor (TCR) engagement activates Mnk1/2 in primary T-cells. Such activation is dependent on Ras-Erk1/2 signaling and is inhibited by diacylglycerol kinases α and ζ. Mnk1/2 double deficiency in mice abolishes TCR-induced eIF4E S209 phosphorylation, indicating their absolute requirement for eIF4E S209 phosphorylation. However, Mnk1/2 double deficiency does not affect the development of conventional αβ T-cells, regulatory T-cells, or NKT-cells. Furthermore, T-cell activation, in vivo primary and memory CD8 T-cell responses to microbial infection, and NKT-cell cytokine production were not obviously altered by Mnk1/2 deficiency. Although Mnk1/2 deficiency causes decreased IL-17 and IFNγ production by CD4 T-cells following immunization of mice with myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein peptide in complete Freud's adjuvant, correlating with milder experimental autoimmune encephalitis scores, it does not affect T helper cell differentiation in vitro. Together, these data suggest that Mnk1/2 play a minimal role in T-cell development and activation but may regulate non-T-cell lineages to control Th1/Th17 differentiation in vivo.
