Mammalian Sin1 plays key roles in the regulation of mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK) and mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling. Sin1 is an essential component of mTOR complex (mTORC) 2. The function of Sin1 and mTORC2 remains largely unknown in T cells. Here we investigate Sin1 function in T cells using mice which lack Sin1 in the hematopoietic system. Sin1 deficiency blocks the mTORC2 dependent Akt phosphorylation in T cells during development and activation. Sin1 deficient T cells exhibit normal thymic cellularity and percentages of double negative, double positive and single positive CD4 and CD8 thymocytes. Sin1 deficiency does not impair T cell receptor (TCR) induced growth and proliferation, and normal CD4+ helper cell differentiation. However Sin1 deficiency results in an increased proportion of Foxp3+ natural T regulatory (nTreg) cells in the thymus. We show that the TGF-β dependent differentiation of CD4+ T cells in vitro is enhanced by the inhibition of mTOR but not loss of Sin1 function. Our results reveal that Sin1 and mTORC2 are dispensable for the development and activation of T cells but play a role in natural Treg cell differentiation.
