Abstract:
:A canonical pre-TCR/TCR signaling pathway critical for thymic T cell development involves sequential phosphorylation and signaling through Lck, Zap70, Lat and Slp76. However, we and others have previously reported that genomic deletion of c-Cbl (Cbl) partially or completely reverses the defects in thymic development in mice deficient in Zap70, Slp76, Lat or Vav1, indicating the presence of alternative pathways normally suppressed by Cbl. To further elucidate pre-TCR/TCR signaling pathways involved in thymic development, we characterized the effect of Cbl inactivation on developmental and signaling defects in mice deficient in proximal signaling molecules Lck and Zap70. Inactivation of Cbl partially reversed defective T cell development in Zap70 (-/-) mice and reversed defects in phosphorylation of Erk, Plc-γ1, Vav1 and Akt, in TCR-stimulated Cbl (-/-) Zap70 (-/-) thymocytes. Recent reports identified an essential role of Lck in associating with CD4 and CD8 coreceptors and mediating the requirement for MHC restriction in TCR recognition. Since TCR recognition has been shown to be MHC-restricted in Cbl (-/-) mice, it was of interest to determine whether the requirement for Lck remained unmodified by Cbl deletion. Indeed, in contrast to the effect of Cbl inactivation in partially or fully bypassing requirements for other TCR signaling components, inactivation of Cbl did not reverse either defective T cell development or defective phosphorylation of TCR signaling molecules in Lck (-/-) mice. Thus, Lck, which plays a unique role in enforcing MHC restriction, is essential for thymic development in presence or absence of Cbl, ensuring MHC restriction of T cells derived from either pathway.
