Cell Generation in the Thymus Transcription Factor 7 Limits Regulatory T

سلول‌های T تنظیمی: انواع، تولید و عملکرد

T lymphocytes have been characterized to different subsets such as cytotoxic T, Thelper1 (Th1), Th2, Th3, Th9, Th17, and regulatory T cells. Each of these subsets have specific function which distinct them from other lymphocytes. Regulatory T lymphocytes are effective cells in immune system that play an important role in cancers, autoimmune and infectious diseases. Two main subsets of regulator...

Regulatory T-Cell Development in the Human Thymus

The thymus generates a lineage-committed subset of regulatory T-cells (Tregs), best identified by the expression of the transcription factor FOXP3. The development of thymus-derived Tregs is known to require high-avidity interaction with MHC-self peptides leading to the generation of self-reactive Tregs fundamental for the maintenance of self-tolerance. Notwithstanding their crucial role in the...

Inhibitory role of the transcription repressor Gfi1 in the generation of thymus-derived regulatory T cells.

Foxp3(+) regulatory T (T(reg)) cells are essential for the maintenance of self-tolerance and immune homeostasis. The majority of T(reg) cells is generated in the thymus as a specific subset of CD4(+) T cells, known as thymus-derived or natural T(reg) (nT(reg)) cells, in response to signals from T-cell receptors, costimulatory molecules, and cytokines. Recent studies have identified intracellula...

A Study to Assess the Role of Gluten Encoded Genes and Their Regulatory Elements in Bread Making Quality of Wheat

Introduction: Bread making quality is affected by gluten genes and balance between their expressions. Hence, it is necessary for a comprehensive research to study and compare all gluten genes and their regulating elements simultaneously. Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate the molecular mechanism of bread quality in the level of coding genes and regulating elements via compa...
