Аннотация
Invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cells differentiate into at least three distinct subsets within the thymus, with each subset's frequency varying considerably among mouse strains; however, the molecular mechanisms involved remain unclear. We herein report that iNKT cell lineage diversity results from the significant expansion of iNKT2 cells with limited T cell receptor (TCR) diversity in BALB/c mice and the selection of iNKT1 cells with significantly diverse TCRs in B6 mice. Furthermore, signaling lymphocytic-activation molecule family 6 (SLAMF6) expression on immature thymocytes significantly differs among mouse strains, with the low expression of SLAMF6 on BALB/c immature thymocytes resulting in high "basal TCR signaling" in preselected DP thymocytes, associated with iNKT cell expansion. Our data suggest that the expression level of SLAMF6 on immature thymocytes affects basal TCR signaling in preselected DP thymocytes, which may influence thymocyte development in a T-cell subset.
