Gain-of-function mutations in the dsDNA sensing adaptor STING lead to a severe autoinflammatory syndrome known as STING-associated vasculopathy with onset in Infancy (SAVI). SAVI patients develop interstitial lung disease (ILD) and produce autoantibodies that are commonly associated with systemic autoimmune diseases. Mice expressing the most common SAVI mutation STING V154M (VM) similarly develop ILD, but exhibit severe T and B cell lymphopenia, low serum Ig titers, and lack autoantibodies. Importantly, lethally irradiated VM hosts reconstituted with wildtype (WT) stem cells (WT→VM) still develop ILD. In this study, we find that WT→VM chimeras had restored B cell function, produced autoantibodies, and thereby recapitulated the loss of tolerance seen in SAVI patients. Lymphocytes derived from both WT and BCR or TCR transgenic (Tg) donors accumulated in the extravascular lung tissue of WT+Tg→VM mixed chimeras, but lymphocyte activation and germinal center formation required WT cells with a diverse repertoire. Furthermore, when T cells isolated from the WTVM chimeras were adoptively transferred to naïve Rag1-deficient 2º hosts, they trafficked to the lung and recruited neutrophils. Overall, these findings indicated that VM expression by radioresistant cells promoted the activation of autoreactive B cells and T cells that then differentiated into potentially pathogenic effector subsets.
