Research Abstract |
Crk-associated substrate lymphocyte type(Cas-L) is an integrin signaling adaptor protein composed of multiple domains serving as a substrate for a variety of tyrosine kinases. Cas-L functions in diverse biological processes such as cell attachment, migration and invasion, apoptosis, and cell cycle progression. To elucidate the function of Cas-L in autoimmune diseases and host defence, we employed Cas-L knockout mice. It was shown that these mice relatively resistant to collagen-induced arthritis, on the other hands, they were susceptible to Citrobacter rodentium infection of colon.
