The most compelling argument for an inflammatory role has come from studies of transgenic mice that over express LIGHT in
the T cell lineage.

T cell activity against cancer, including diacylglycerol kinase ζ (DGKζ)(9, 10) and Casitas b -
lineage proto - oncogene b (Cbl - b)(11), which attenuate signal transduction events downstream of the TCR and CD28.

T / null
lineage (1).
We did not identify the JAK2V617F disease allele in B -
lineage ALL (n = 83),
T -
cell ALL (n = 93), or CLL (n = 45).
Quantitative PCR analysis was performed to compare transcript levels of Venus with PrEn (Hex, Gata4, Gata6, Dab2, Sox7, Hnf4α, and Pdgfrα), pluripotency (Nanog, Klf4, Rex1, Stella, and Pou5f1) and other
lineage (
T, Fgf5, Eomes, Flk1, Mixl1, Cdx2, Sox1, Pax6, and Six3) markers in purified
cell fractions.
In contrast, we did not identify JAK2V617F mutations in B -
lineage ALL (83 patients),
T -
cell ALL (93 patients), or CLL (45 patients).
In this report, we identified JAK2V617F mutations in a subset of CMML / aCML, AML, and MDS but not in B -

T lymphocyte
lineages, the differentiation of inflammatory
T helper

We used direct sequence analysis to determine if the JAK2V617F mutation was present in acute myeloid leukemia (AML), chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML) / atypical chronic myelogenous leukemia (aCML), myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), B -

lineage acute lymphoblastic leukemia induces a distinct change in costimulatory molecule expression and shifts allogeneic
T cells towards a Th1 response.
Although, remarkable progress has been made in the in vitro development of
T cells from ES
cells [6], [7], this has not been the case for other hematopoietic
cell lineages.
While this approach did not allow us to examine the impact of selective EBI2 - deficiency in DCs on WT B -
lineage cells, the experiment did allow assessment of the response of EBI2 - deficient B
cells in mice that lack EBI2 on CD11c + DCs while retaining EBI2 on approximately half of all non-CD11c expressing
cells (such as helper
T cells).
