Regulation of redox balance in T cells. Both ROS generation by mitochondria and ROS scavenging by GSH are essential for the T cell activation. The ROS at the defined window activates nuclear factor of activated T cells (NFAT), which in turn induces IL-2 and MYC expressions, leading to T cell metabolic reprogramming, expansion, and differentiation into effector or regulator cells.
