    Based on distinct transcriptional and epigenomic features and flow cytometry of Ly108 versus CD69, donor graft CD4 + T-derived memory T cells (Tm) in the chronic GVHD target tissues can be divided into four subsets: Ly108 + CD69 − Tsm, Ly108 + CD69 + Trmp, Ly108 − CD69 + Trm, and Ly108 − CD69 − Tint. Trm are the critical effectors that mediate cGVHD, and Tsm are required for maintaining the Tm pool. Tsm differentiation into Trmp and then to Trm in a MHCII/TCR-dependent manner and produces biased clonal expansion of Trm cells with strong proinflammatory characteristics. TCF1/BCL6 and BHLHE40 differentially regulate the stemness and differentiation of Tsm cells. Solid lines with arrow mean strong indication and dashed lines with arrow means potential indication.
