Abstract:
Specific biological roles of non-canonical nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-kB) signaling in human T cells remain unclear. Therefore, we genetically modified Jurkat leukemic cells using the clustered regularly interspaced palindromic repeat (CRISPR)/CRISPR-associated protein 9 (Cas9) technology to better understand the NF-kB signaling mechanisms. IKAROS family zinc finger-2 levels were downregulated in NFKB2-knocked-out cells but upregulated in NFKB1-knocked-out cells without stimulation. To further understand the biological roles of NF-kB signaling in CD4+ T cells, NFKB1/NFKB2 loci of human primary CD4+ T cells were genetically edited using the CRISPR/Cas9 technology. Quantitative polymerase chain reaction and fluorescence-activated cell sorting revealed the similar phenotypes and gene expression profiles of NFKB1/NFKB2-knocked-out human CD4+ T cells at a resting state.
