Simultaneous Disruption of Interleukin (IL)-4 and IL-13 Defines Individual Roles in T Helper Cell Type 2–mediated Responses
Using a single vector targeting strategy, we have generated mice with a combined deficiency of interleukin (IL)-4 and IL-13 to clarify their roles in T helper type 2 (Th2) cell responses. Using immunological challenges normally characterized by a Th2-like response, we have compared the responses of the double-deficient mice with those generated by wild-type, IL-4-deficient, and IL-13-deficient ...
متن کاملProstaglandin I2 inhibits IL-33-induced IL-5 and IL-13 production by human type 2 innate lymphoid cells
Background Group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2) are characterized by their expression of cytokines including IL-5 and IL-13 in response to IL-33. ILC2 are critical in mediating influenza virus-induced airway hypersensitivity and are associated with allergic inflammation. However, the factors regulating human ILC2 (hILC2) cytokine responses are not fully defined. In this study, we tested the hyp...
متن کاملRegulation of T cell-dependent and -independent IL-12 production by the three Th2-type cytokines IL-10, IL-6, and IL-4.
The production of IL-12 by macrophages/dendritic cells (Mphi/DC) is mediated either by a T cell-dependent pathway that is induced primarily by the interaction of CD40 ligand (CD40L) on activated T cells with CD40 on IL-12-producing cells or by a T cell-independent pathway that is induced by bacteria or bacterial products and enhanced by interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma). In this study we investigate...
متن کاملRegulation of IL-4 expression by the transcription factor JunB during T helper cell differentiation.
The molecular basis for restricted cytokine expression by T helper 1 (Th1) and T helper 2 (Th2) cells is unclear. Previous studies found that P1, an element of the interleukin 4 (IL-4) promoter that binds AP-1, is important for Th2-restricted IL-4 expression. Here we show that JunB, but not the other Jun family members, was selectively induced in Th2 cells and not in Th1 cells during differenti...
متن کاملCombined Stimulation with the T Helper Cell Type 2 Cytokines Interleukin (Il)-4 and IL-10 Induces Mouse Mast Cell Apoptosis
Mast cells are found in connective and mucosal tissues throughout the body. Their activation via immunoglobulin E (IgE)-antigen interactions is promoted by T helper cell type 2 (Th2) cytokines and leads to the sequelae of allergic disease. We now report a mechanism by which Th2 cytokines can regulate mast cell survival. Specifically, we find that interleukin (IL)-4 and IL-10 induce apoptosis in...
