NF-κB (nuclear factor κB) signaling is considered critical for single positive (SP) thymocyte development because loss of upstream activators of NF-κB, such as the IKK complex, arrests their development. We found that the compound ablation of RelA, cRel, and p50, required for canonical NF-κB transcription, had no impact upon thymocyte development. While IKK-deficient thymocytes were acutely sensitive to tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-induced cell death, Rel-deficient cells remained resistant, calli ...[more]
