TGF-β type II receptor–deficient thymocytes develop normally but demonstrate increased CD8+ proliferation in vivo
1 Sept 2005
Abstract excerpt
We have taken advantage of the Cre/lox system to generate a mouse model with inducible deficiency of transforming growth factor beta receptor II (TbetaRII). Using this approach, transforming growth factor beta (TGF-beta) signaling deficiency can be restricted to the hematopoietic system by bone marrow transplantation. Mice that received transplants with TbetaRII-/- bone marrow develop a lethal inflammatory...
