Transcriptional control of t lymphocyte differentiation.
Initiation of gene transcription by transcription factors (TFs) is an important regulatory step in many developmental processes. The differentiation of T cell progenitors in the thymus is tightly controlled by signaling molecules, ultimately activating nuclear TFs that regulate the expression of T lineage-specific genes. During the last 2 years, significant progress has been made in our underst...
متن کاملTranscriptional control of regulatory T-cell differentiation.
Regulatory T (Treg) cells are essential for maintaining peripheral tolerance and for limiting excessive inflammatory responses under various conditions. The lineage-specific transcription factor Foxp3 has a critical role in Treg-cell biology. Foxp3 forms large protein complexes and cooperates with environmentally induced transcription factors to shape the Treg-cell transcriptional program. Here...
متن کاملForging T-Lymphocyte Identity: Intersecting Networks of Transcriptional Control.
T-lymphocyte development branches off from other lymphoid developmental programs through its requirement for sustained environmental signals through the Notch pathway. In the thymus, Notch signaling induces a succession of T-lineage regulatory factors that collectively create the T-cell identity through distinct steps. This process involves both the staged activation of T-cell identity genes an...
متن کاملSequential stages of human T lymphocyte differentiation.
Induction of thymus-dependent lymphocyte (T cell) differentiation was performed in vitro with thymic factors as inducers. T cell precursors from human bone marrow first expressed surface differentiation antigens and then acquired the capacity to form rosettes with sheep erythrocytes. The latter marker could not be induced when cells with differentiation antigens had been eliminated. The prolife...
متن کاملTranscriptional control of mesenchymal stem cell differentiation.
SUMMARY In recent years, transcriptomics and proteomics have provided us with a great deal of information about the expression profiles of various cell types and how these change under different conditions. Stem cell research is one area where this has had a major impact by providing an insight into events at the molecular level that control stem cell growth and differentiation. This includes m...
