To address this gap, we used a combination of SIK knockout and kinase-inactive knock-in mice. The combined loss of SIK1 and SIK2 activity did not block T cell development. Conditional knockout of SIK3 in haemopoietic cells, driven by a Vav-iCre transgene, resulted in a moderate reduction in the numbers of peripheral T cells, but normal B cell numbers. Constitutive knockout of SIK2 combined with conditional knockout of SIK3 in the haemopoietic cells resulted in a severe reduction in peripheral T cells without reducing B cell number. A similar effect was seen when SIK3 deletion was driven via CD4-Cre transgene to delete at the DP stage of T cell development. Analysis of the SIK2\/3 Vav-iCre mice showed that thymocyte number was greatly reduced, but development was not blocked completely as indicated by the presence of low numbers CD4 and CD8 single positive cells. SIK2 and SIK3 were not required for rearrangement of the TCR\u03b2 locus, or for low level cell surface expression of the TCR complex on the surface of CD4\/CD8 double positive thymocytes. In the absence of both SIK2 and SIK3, progression to mature single positive cells was greatly reduced, suggesting a defect in negative and\/or positive selection in the thymus. In agreement with an effect on negative selection, increased apoptosis was seen in thymic TCRbeta high\/CD5 positive cells from SIK2\/3 knockout mice. Together, these results show an important role for SIK2 and SIK3 in thymic T cell development.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1038\/s41598-021-00986-0","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,11,5]],"date-time":"2021-11-05T10:10:44Z","timestamp":1636107044000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":22,"title":["Salt inducible kinases 2 and 3 are required for thymic T cell development"],"prefix":"10.1038","volume":"11","author":[{"given":"Meriam","family":"Nefla","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Nicola J.","family":"Darling","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Manuel","family":"van Gijsel Bonnello","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Philip","family":"Cohen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"J.
