CD8+ T Cells Require ITK-Mediated TCR Signaling for Migration to the Intestine
1 Feb 2020
Abstract excerpt
Abstract The Tec kinase IL-2–inducible T cell kinase (ITK) regulates the expression of TCR-induced genes. Itk−/− T cell responses are impaired but not absent. ITK inhibition prevented colitis disease progression and impaired T cell migration to the colon in mice. To examine the function of ITK in T cell migration to the intestine, we examined the number of gut T cells in Itk−/− mice and then evaluated their...
