简介:巨噬细胞在免疫和动态平衡起一个重要作用。在经由特定的受体的病原体识别之上,他们很快导致煽动性的回答。这个过程紧在transcriptional水平被控制。DNA有约束力的锌手指蛋白质CCCTC有约束力的因素(Ctcf)是远程的染色质相互作用的一个关键管理者并且协调在抄写因素和基因表达式进程之间的特定的通讯。在这研究,Ctcf基因被使用转基因的Cre-LoxP系统明确地在myeloid房间删除。在myeloid房间的Ctcf基因的有条件的删除在vivo导致了温和显型。显著地展出的Ctcf缺乏的老鼠减少了主要histocompatibility的表示在肝的建筑群(MHC)班II。Ctcf缺乏的巨噬细胞表明了正常表面显型和吞噬作用能力。在像使用费的受体(TLR)之上刺激,他们生产了支持inflammatorycytokinesIL-12和IL-6的正常层次,但是表明了一个强烈损害的能力生产肿瘤坏死因素(TNF)和IL-10,以及表示IL-10家庭成员IL-19,IL-20和IL-24。一起拿,我们的数据表明涉及巨噬细胞功能调整的Ctcf的一个角色。
