T lymphocytes play a key role in the immune response and their functions are intimately linked to metabolic programs. During immune responses, T cells undergo a metabolic reprogramming notably characterized by an increased aerobic glycolysis. Using a quantitative phosphoproteomic approach, the inventors have identified a new transcription factor called Foxk1 as being highly phosphorylated in T cells upon T Cell Receptor (TCR) engagement. The results also indicate that Foxk1 phosphorylation and nuclear translocation is dependent of the AKT-mTOR kinase activities. Using T-cell specific Foxk1 deficient mice (Foxk1- / -), we demonstrated that Foxk1 is required for full T cell activation. Foxk1-deficient T cells exhibited reduced proliferation and cytokine secretion following TCR stimulation. Furthermore, T cells from Foxk1- / - mice were less prone to acquire an effector like phenotype than wild-type cells when challenged in vivo. Conversely, Foxk1 overexpression in T cells enhanced their effector functions in a TCR-dependent manner. In CD8+ T cells, this effect also results into enhanced cancer cell killing capacity in vitro, and improved tumor rejection in vivo. Altogether, these results indicated that Foxk1 is a major regulator of T cell metabolism and thus, of T cell effector functions. Thus, the present invention relates to host immune cells engineered to overexpress a Foxk1 polypeptide and their use of the treatment of cancer.
