Journal ArticleDOI

Polygenic autoimmune traits: Lyn, CD22, and SHP-1 are limiting elements of a biochemical pathway regulating BCR signaling and selection.

TL;DR: As in invertebrates, genetic effects of loci with only one functional allele can be used to analyze signaling networks in mice, demonstrating that negative regulation of the BCR is a complex quantitative trait in which Lyn, the coreceptor CD22, and the tyrosine phosphatase SHP-1 are each limiting elements.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lymphatic endothelial cell sphingosine kinase activity is required for lymphocyte egress and lymphatic patterning.

TL;DR: Evidence is provided that lymphatic endothelial cells are an in vivo source of S1P required for lymphocyte egress from LNs and Peyer's patches, and a role for S1p in lymphatic vessel maturation is suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI

S1P1 Receptor Signaling Overrides Retention Mediated by Gαi-Coupled Receptors to Promote T Cell Egress

TL;DR: It is shown that C CR7-deficient T cells left lymph nodes more rapidly than wild-type cells did, whereas CCR7-overexpressing cells were retained for longer.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sphingosine 1-phosphate receptor 1 promotes B cell localization in the splenic marginal zone

TL;DR: It is reported that FTY720, a drug that targets sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) receptors, induced marginal zone B cell migration into follicles, and using gene-targeted mice, it is shown that S1P1 but not S1p3 was required for localization in the marginal zone.
Journal ArticleDOI

Integrin-mediated long-term B cell retention in the splenic marginal zone.

TL;DR: Key requirements for MZ B cell localization are identified and a role for integrins in peripheral lymphoid tissue compartmentalization is established and down-regulation of integrin-mediated adhesion is established.
