ICAP-1 regulates β1 integrin activation and cell adhesion. Here we used ICAP-1-null mice to study ICAP-1 potential involvement during immune cell development and function. Integrin α4β1-dependent adhesion was comparable between ICAP-1-null and control thymocytes, but lack of ICAP-1 caused a defective single positive (SP) CD8+ cell generation, thus unveiling an ICAP-1 involvement in SP thymocyte development. ICAP-1 bears a nuclear localization signal and we found it displayed a strong nuclear distribution in thymocytes. Interestingly, there was a direct correlation between the lack of ICAP-1 and reduced levels in SP CD8+ thymocytes of Runx3, a transcription factor required for CD8+ thymocyte generation. In the spleen, ICAP-1 was found evenly distributed between cytoplasm and nuclear fractions, and ICAP-1-/- spleen T and B cells displayed upregulation of α4β1-mediated adhesion, indicating that ICAP-1 negatively controls their attachment. Furthermore, CD3+ - and CD19+ -selected spleen cells from ICAP-1-null mice showed reduced proliferation in response to T and B cell stimuli, respectively. Finally, loss of ICAP-1 caused a remarkable decrease in marginal zone B cell frequencies and a moderate increase in follicular B cells. Together, these data unravel an ICAP-1 involvement in the generation of SP CD8+ thymocytes and in the control of marginal zone B cell numbers.
