iNKT cells coopt the evolutionarily conserved Hippo signaling pathway to control their maturation and terminal differentiation. (A) Salient features of thymic iNKT cell maturation and effector subset differentiation. (B) Core components of the mammalian canonical Hippo signaling pathway, and common cellular inputs and outcomes. (C) Model for the consequences of Mst signaling on the maturation and terminal effector differentiation of iNKT1 cells and its association with IL-15R signaling, based on the new work from Raynor et al. (2020).
