The role of the CD45-associated phosphoprotein (LPAP / CD45-AP) during an immune response remains unclear. To understand better the function of LPAP we generated LPAP-deficient mice by disrupting exon 2 of the LPAP gene. LPAP-null mice were healthy and did not show gross abnormalities compared to their wild-type littermates. However, immunofluorescence analysis of T and B lymphocytes revealed a reduced expression of CD45, which did not affect a particular subpopulation. In contrast to a recent report (Matsuda et al., J. Exp. Med. 1998. 187: 1863 - 1870) we neither observed significant alterations of the assembly of the CD45 / lck-complex nor of polyclonal T-cell responses. However, lymphnodes from LPAP-null mice showed increased cellularity, which could indicate that expression of LPAP might be required to prevent expansion of lymphocytes in particular lymphatic organs rather than potentiating immune responses.

D008213 Lymphocyte Activation Morphologic alteration of small B LYMPHOCYTES or T LYMPHOCYTES in culture into large blast-like cells able to synthesize DNA and RNA and to divide mitotically. It is induced by INTERLEUKINS; MITOGENS such as PHYTOHEMAGGLUTININS, and by specific ANTIGENS. It may also occur in vivo as in GRAFT REJECTION.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D013601 T-Lymphocytes Lymphocytes responsible for cell-mediated immunity. Two types have been identified - cytotoxic (T-LYMPHOCYTES, CYTOTOXIC) and helper T-lymphocytes (T-LYMPHOCYTES, HELPER-INDUCER). They are formed when lymphocytes circulate through the THYMUS GLAND and differentiate to thymocytes. When exposed to an antigen, they divide rapidly and produce large numbers of new T cells sensitized to that antigen.

D017493 Leukocyte Common Antigens High-molecular weight glycoproteins uniquely expressed on the surface of LEUKOCYTES and their hemopoietic progenitors. They contain two FIBRONECTIN TYPE III DOMAINS and possess cytoplasmic protein tyrosine phosphatase activity, which plays a role in intracellular signaling from the CELL SURFACE RECEPTORS. Leukocyte common antigens occur as multiple isoforms that result from alternative mRNA splicing and differential usage of three exons.

Included here are peptides and proteins that regulate the activity of TRANSCRIPTION FACTORS and cellular processes in response to signals from CELL SURFACE RECEPTORS. Intracellular signaling peptide and proteins may be part of an enzymatic signaling cascade or act through binding to and modifying the action of other signaling factors.

D018345 Mice, Knockout Strains of mice in which certain GENES of their GENOMES have been disrupted, or "knocked-out". To produce knockouts, using RECOMBINANT DNA technology, the normal DNA sequence of the gene being studied is altered to prevent synthesis of a normal gene product. Cloned cells in which this DNA alteration is successful are then injected into mouse EMBRYOS to produce chimeric mice. The chimeric mice are then bred to yield a strain in which all the cells of the mouse contain the disrupted gene. Knockout mice are used as EXPERIMENTAL ANIMAL MODELS for diseases (DISEASE MODELS, ANIMAL) and to clarify the functions of the genes.
