Defective activation and survival of T cells lacking the Ets-1 transcription factor

THE Ets-1 proto-oncogene 1 is a member of the Ets family of eukaryotic transcription factors 2á¤-7 . Members of this family play important roles in regulating gene expression in response to multiple developmental and mitogenic signals 4,5,8,9 . Ets-1 is preferentially expressed at high levels in B a...

description THE Ets-1 proto-oncogene 1 is a member of the Ets family of eukaryotic transcription factors 2á¤-7 . Members of this family play important roles in regulating gene expression in response to multiple developmental and mitogenic signals 4,5,8,9 . Ets-1 is preferentially expressed at high levels in B and T cells of adult mice 10,11 and is regulated during both thymocyte development 11 and T-cell activation *12, 13 . To study the role of Ets-1 in T-cell development and function we have used the RAG-2 -/- complementation system 14 and murine embryonic stem (ES) cells containing homozygous deletions in the Ets-1 gene ( Ets-1 -/- ). Ets-1 -/- - RAG-2 -/- chimaeric mice displayed markedly decreased numbers of mature thymocytes and peripheral T cells. Ets-1 -/- T cells expressed normal levels of CD3 and T-cell antigen receptor (TCR)-α/β. However, they displayed a severe proliferative defect in response to multiple activational signals and demonstrated increased rates of spontaneous apoptosis in vitro . These findings demonstrate that Ets-1 is required for the normal survival and activation of murine T cells.
