The prevailing model of protective immunity to tuberculosis is that CD4 T cells produce the cytokine IFN-γ to activate bactericidal mechanisms in infected macrophages. Although IFN-γ-independent CD4 T cell based control of M. tuberculosis infection has been demonstrated in vivo it is unclear whether CD4 T cells are capable of directly activating macrophages to control infection in the absence of IFN-γ. We developed a co-culture model using CD4 T cells isolated from the lungs of infected mice and M. tuberculosis-infected murine bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs) to investigate mechanisms of CD4 dependent control of infection. We found that even in the absence of IFN-γ signaling, CD4 T cells drive macrophage activation, M1 polarization, and control of infection. This IFN-γ-independent control of infection requires activation of the transcription factor HIF-1α and a shift to aerobic glycolysis in infected macrophages. While HIF-1α activation following IFN-γ stimulation requires nitric oxide, HIF-1α-mediated control in the absence of IFN-γ is nitric oxide-independent, indicating that distinct pathways can activate HIF-1α during infection. We show that CD4 T cell-derived GM-CSF is required for IFN-γ-independent control in BMDMs, but that recombinant GM-CSF is insufficient to control infection in BMDMs or alveolar macrophages and does not rescue the absence of control by GM-CSF-deficient T cells. In contrast, recombinant GM-CSF controls infection in peritoneal macrophages, induces lipid droplet biogenesis, and also requires HIF-1α for control. These results advance our understanding of CD4 T cell-mediated immunity to M. tuberculosis, reveal important differences in immune activation of distinct macrophage types, and outline a novel mechanism for the activation of HIF-1α. We establish a previously unknown functional link between GM-CSF and HIF-1α and provide evidence that CD4 T cell-derived GM-CSF is a potent bactericidal effector. CD4 T cells are essential for immune control of the bacterial pathogen Mycobacterium tuberculosis, in part due to CD4 T cell production of the cytokine IFN-γ which activates antimicrobial functions in infected macrophages. Recent evidence points to an IFN-γ-independent role for CD4 T cells during the immune response to M. tuberculosis, but mechanisms of IFN-γ-independent control have remained elusive. Here we show that, like IFN-γ-mediated control, IFN-γ-independent control requires the transcription factor HIF-1α. HIF-1α is activated via distinct signaling pathways and mediates divergent effects following IFN-γ-mediated and IFN-γ-independent CD4 T cell stimulation, positioning HIF-1α as a critical signaling node for control of M. tuberculosis in macrophages. Furthermore, we show that CD4 T cell production of the cytokine GM-CSF is required for IFN-γ-independent control and that GM-CSF-mediated control requires HIF-1α. These findings delineate a novel, IFN-γ-independent pathway for CD4 T cell-mediated control that begins with production of GM-CSF and leads to HIF-1α activation to restrict M. tuberculosis in infected macrophages. Advances in our understanding of CD4 T cell-mediated control of M. tuberculosis will help guide the development of new and improved vaccines for this important global pathogen.
