DR3 regulates negative selection during thymocyte development.
DR3 (Ws1, Apo3, LARD, TRAMP, TNFSFR12) is a member of the death domain-containing tumor necrosis factor receptor (TNFR) superfamily, members of which mediate a variety of developmental events including the regulation of cell proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. We have investigated the in vivo role(s) of DR3 by generating mice congenitally deficient in the expression of the DR3 gene. ...
متن کاملInterleukin-7 co-ordinates proliferation, differentiation and Tcra recombination during thymocyte β-selection
pre-T cell receptor (TCR) and Notch signaling induce transient self-renewal or “β-selection” of TCRβ+ CD4 CD8 double-negative-3 (DN3) and DN4 progenitors that differentiate into CD4 CD8 double positive (DP) thymocytes which then rearrange Tcra. Interleukin-7 (IL-7) promotes Bcl2dependent survival of TCRβ− DN thymocytes, but IL-7 functions during β-selection remain unclear. Here, we show that IL...
متن کاملNotch3 Is Dispensable for Thymocyte β-Selection and Notch1-Induced T Cell Leukemogenesis
Notch1 (N1) signaling induced by intrathymic Delta-like (DL) ligands is required for T cell lineage commitment as well as self-renewal during "β-selection" of TCRβ⁺CD4⁻CD8⁻ double negative 3 (DN3) T cell progenitors. However, over-expression of the N1 intracellular domain (ICN1) renders N1 activation ligand-independent and drives leukemic transformation during β-selection. DN3 progenitors also ...
متن کاملDefined αβ T Cell Receptors with Distinct Ligand Specificities Do Not Require Those Ligands to Signal Double Negative Thymocyte Differentiation
During T cell development in the thymus, pre-T cell receptor (TCR) complexes signal CD4(-) CD8(-) (double negative [DN]) thymocytes to differentiate into CD4(+) CD8(+) (double positive [DP]) thymocytes, and they generate such signals without apparent ligand engagements. Although ligand-independent signaling is unusual and might be unique to the pre-TCR, it is possible that other TCR complexes s...
متن کاملCD6 modulates thymocyte selection and peripheral T cell homeostasis
The CD6 glycoprotein is a lymphocyte surface receptor putatively involved in T cell development and activation. CD6 facilitates adhesion between T cells and antigen-presenting cells through its interaction with CD166/ALCAM (activated leukocyte cell adhesion molecule), and physically associates with the T cell receptor (TCR) at the center of the immunological synapse. However, its precise role d...
