Kindlin-3 is also known to regulate T cell adhesion in vitro and trafficking in vivo, but whether the integrin\/kindlin interaction regulates T or B cell activation in vivo is unclear. In this study, we used TTT\/AAA \u03b22-integrin knock-in (KI) mice and TCR-transgenic (OT-II) KI mice, in which the integrin\/kindlin connection is disrupted, to investigate the role of the integrin\/kindlin interaction in T cell activation. We show that basal T cell activation status in these animals in vivo is normal, but they display reduced T cell activation by wild-type Ag-loaded dendritic cells in vitro. In addition, T cell activation in vivo is reduced. We also show that basal Ab levels are normal in TTT\/AAA \u03b22-integrin KI mice, but B cell numbers in lymph nodes and IgG and IgM production after immunization are reduced. In conclusion, we show that the integrin\/kindlin interaction is required for trafficking of immune cells, as well as for T cell activation and B cell Ab responses in vivo. These results imply that the immunodeficiency found in leukocyte adhesion deficiency type III patients, in addition to being caused by defects in neutrophil function, may be due, in part, to defects in lymphocyte trafficking and activation.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.4049\/jimmunol.1402741","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2015,5,19]],"date-time":"2015-05-19T02:01:15Z","timestamp":1432000875000},"page":"105-115","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":21,"title":["Optimal T Cell Activation and B Cell Antibody Responses In Vivo Require the Interaction between Leukocyte Function\u2013Associated Antigen-1 and Kindlin-3"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"195","author":[{"given":"Vicky Louise","family":"Morrison","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Biotechnology, University of Helsinki , 00014 Helsinki ,","place":["Finland"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Liisa M","family":"Uotila","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Biotechnology, University of Helsinki , 00014 Helsinki ,","place":["Finland"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Marc","family":"Llort Asens","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Biotechnology, University of Helsinki , 00014 Helsinki ,","place":["Finland"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Terhi","family":"Savinko","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Biotechnology, University of Helsinki , 00014 Helsinki ,","place":["Finland"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Susanna Carola","family":"Fagerholm","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Biotechnology, University of Helsinki , 00014 Helsinki ,","place":["Finland"]},{"name":"Medical Research Institute, University of Dundee , Dundee DD1 9SY ,","place":["United Kingdom"]},{"name":"Faculty of Biological and Environmental Sciences, University of Helsinki , 00014 Helsinki ,","place":["Finland"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2015,7,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"2025030703394908300_r1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"215","DOI":"10.1242\/jcs.019117","article-title":"Integrins in immunity","volume":"122","author":"Evans","year":"2009","journal-title":"J.
