Abstract excerpt
Sphingosine-1 phosphate receptor 1 (S1P1) is critical for the egress of T and B cells out of lymphoid organs. Although S1P1 agonist fingolimod is currently used for the treatment of multiple sclerosis (MS) little is known how S1P1 signaling regulates Th17 and Treg cell homeostasis. To study the impact of S1P1 signaling on Th17 and Treg cell biology, we specifically deleted S1P1 in Th17 and Treg cells using IL-17A...
