CD5 is constitutively expressed on all T cells and is a negative regulator of lymphocyte function. However, the full extent of CD5 function in immunity remains unclear. CD5 deficiency impacts thymic selection and extra-thymic regulatory T cell generation, yet CD5 knockout was reported to cause no immune pathology. Here we show that CD5 is a key modulator of gut immunity. We generated mice with inducible CD5 knockdown (KD) in the autoimmune-prone nonobese diabetic (NOD) background. CD5 deficiency ...[more]
