CCR9 mediates chemotaxis in response to CCL25/thymus-expressed
chemokine and is selectively expressed on T cells in the thymus and
small intestine. To investigate the role of CCR9 in T cell development,
the CCR9 gene was disrupted by homologous recombination. B cell
development, thymic 
-T cell development, and thymocyte selection
appeared unimpaired in adult CCR9-deficient (CCR9-/-)
mice. However, competitive transplantation experiments revealed that
bone marrow from CCR9-/- mice was less efficient at
repopulating the thymus of lethally irradiated Rag-1-/-
mice than bone marrow from littermate CCR9+/+ mice.
CCR9-/- mice had increased numbers of peripheral 
-T
cells but reduced numbers of 
TCR+ and
CD8
+
TCR+ intraepithelial
lymphocytes in the small intestine. Thus, CCR9 plays an important,
although not indispensable, role in regulating the development and/or
migration of both 
- and 
- T
lymphocytes.
