Abstract Effective T cell responses depend on adhesion mechanisms that guide T cells to sites of infection and inflammation. P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1 (PSGL-1) has been shown to impact T cell migration; however, its role in the differentiation of responding T cells has not been investigated. Since PSGL-1 is highly expressed on naïve, effector, and memory T cells with varying degrees of glycosylation that impact ligand binding, we hypothesized that PSGL-1 may regulate T cell fates. Using mice deficient in PSGL-1 and we found that PSGL-1 limited the magnitude of the ensuing T cell response. PSGL-1-deficient mice had an increased accumulation of anti-viral CD4+ and CD8+ T cells after acute LCMV infection. Virus-specific PSGL-1-deficient T cells had enhanced survival and were not hyper proliferative. Furthermore, PSGL-1-deficient T cells had superior effector function, downregulation of PD-1 and other inhibitory receptors and changes in their transcriptional signature. After viral clearance, more CD4+ and CD8+ PSGL-1-deficient T cells survived to form memory cells. Interestingly, memory T cells from PSGL-1-deficient mice sustained PD-1 downregulation implying that PSGL-1 may regulate inhibitory receptors in memory T cells. Our findings highlight a previously unrecognized role for PSGL-1 in negatively regulating T cell differentiation during acute viral infection.
