medicine | inducible sphingosine-1-phosphate lyase knockout mice featuring partial reduction of sphingosine-1-phosphate lyase activity are viable but feature profound reduction of peripheral T cells, similar to the constitutive knockout mice. While thymic T cell development in these mice appears normal, mature T cells are retained in thymus and lymph nodes, leading to reduced T cell numbers in spleen and blood, with a skewing towards increased proportions of memory T cells and T regulatory cells. The inducible knockout mice are protected in experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis. T cell immigration into the CNS is profoundly reduced | Mus musculus |
