Homeostatic Regulation of the Immune System by Receptor Tyrosine Kinases of the Tyro 3 Family
摘要:
Receptor tyrosine kinases and their ligands mediate cell-and interaction in many organ systems, but have not been known to act in this capacity in the mature immune system. We now provide genetic evidence that three closely related receptor tyrosine kinases, Tyro 3, , and , play an essential immunoregulatory role. Mutant that lack these receptors develop a severe accompanied by broad-spectrum autoimmunity. These phenotypes are cell nonautonomous with respect to lymphocytes and result from the hyperactivation of antigen-presenting cells in which the three receptors are normally expressed.
