| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To visualize BATF expression during memory T cell formation, reporter gene constructs were generated by fusing the luciferase, GFP, or dsRED gene to the BATF promoter. Interestingly, BATF expression was induced both in T cells and dendritic cells upon stimulation. While BATF expression was induced upon TLR stimulation in murine dendritic cells derived from spleen and bone marrow, BATF was constitutively expressed in dendritic cell lines, suggesting that mechanisms regulating BATF expression in primary cells and cell lines may be different. These results suggest that it might be important to establish the reporter system using primary cells for the analysis of molecular mechanisms regulating BATF-expression.
