| 英文摘要 | The roles of the reprogramming factors Oct4, Sox2, c-Myc and Klf4 in early T cell development are incompletely defined. Here, we show that Klf4 is the only reprogramming factor whose expression is downregulated when early thymic progenitors (ETPs) differentiate into T cells. Enforced expression of Klf4 in uncommitted progenitors severely impaired T cell development mainly at the DN2-to-DN3 transition when T cell lineage commitment occurs and affected the transcription of a variety of genes with crucial functions in early T cell development, including genes involved in microenvironmental signaling (IL-7Ra), Notch target genes (Deltex1), and essential T cell lineage regulatory or inhibitory genes (Bcl11a, SpiB, and Id1). The survival of thymocytes and the rearrangement at the Tcrb locus were impaired in the presence of enforced Klf4 expression. The defects in the DN1-to-DN2 and DN2-to-DN3 transitions in Klf4 transgenic mice could not be rescued by the introduction of a TCR transgene, but was partially rescued by restoring the expression of IL-7Ra. Thus, our data indicate that the downregulation of Klf4 is a prerequisite for T cell lineage commitment. |
