N2 - T cells differentiate into functionally distinct states upon antigen encounter. These states are delineated by different cell surface markers for murine and human T cells, which hamper cross-species translation of T cell properties. We aimed to identify surface markers that reflect the graded nature of CD8+ T cell differentiation and delineate functionally comparable states in mice and humans. CITEseq analyses revealed that graded expression of CX3CR1, encoding the chemokine receptor CX3CR1, correlated with the CD8+ T cell differentiation gradient. CX3CR1 expression distinguished human and murine CD8+ and CD4+ T cell states, as defined by migratory and functional properties. Graded CX3CR1 expression, refined with CD62L, accurately captured the high-dimensional T cell differentiation continuum. Furthermore, the CX3CR1 expression gradient delineated states with comparable properties in humans and mice in steady state and on longitudinally tracked virus-specific CD8+ T cells in both species. Thus, graded CX3CR1 expression provides a strategy to translate the behavior of distinct T cell differentiation states across species.
