Chronic inflammatory autoimmune diseases such as multiple sclerosis, diabetes, and rheumatoid arthritis are caused by CD4(+) Th1 cells. Because Th2 cells antagonize Th1 cell functions in several ways, it is believed that immune deviation towards Th2 can prevent or cure autoimmune diseases. Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) is a demyelinating disease used as a model for multiple sc...
interleukin-12 (il-12) is a key cytokine involved in regulating the balance between th1 and th2 cells by promoting th1 response. a reduced capacity to produce this cytokine could lead to aberrant th2 development. on the same aspect significant impact of il-12 on invariant natural killer t (inkt) cells was reported. therefore, we examined the serum levels of il-12 and the absolute number of peri...
Th2 cells play a key role in directing immune responses against helminths. Additionally, Th2 cells are crucial for many types of allergic reactions. Whereas the molecular mechanisms underlying the differentiation of other types of Th cells are well understood, Th2 differentiation is still a controversial topic. IL-4 and its downstream transcription factor signal transducer and activator of tran...
Th2 cells are recruited to the lung where they mediate the asthma phenotype. Since the molecular mechanisms regulating Th2 cell trafficking remain unknown, we sought to determine whether trafficking of Th2 cells into the lung is mediated by G alpha i-coupled chemoattractant receptors. We show here that in contrast to untreated Th2 cells, pertussis toxin-treated Th2 cells were unable to traffic ...
To study the requirements for activation of human Th1 and Th2 cells, soluble peptide/DR1 complexes were prepared from naturally expressed DR1 protein. When immobilized, this material induced T cell activation, as revealed by CD25 up-regulation. Unexpectedly, Th2 cells required a higher density of peptide/DR1 complexes than Th1 cells to initiate CD25 up-regulation. Similar findings were obtained...
Interleukin-5 (IL-5), which is produced by CD4(+) T helper 2 (Th2) cells, but not by Th1 cells, plays a key role in the development of eosinophilia in asthma. Despite increasing evidence that the outcome of many diseases is determined by the ratio of the two subsets of CD4(+) T helper cells, Th1 and Th2, the molecular basis for Th1- and Th2-specific gene expression remains to be elucidated. We ...
Immunological memory is a hallmark of adaptive immunity. Memory CD4 T cells function as a control tower of the adaptive immune system to direct immune responses, leading to the elimination of various invaded microorganisms. Important roles of functionally distinct CD4 helper T cell (Th) subsets, such as Th1, Th2 and Th17 cells, in the host-defense immune responses have been well recognized. In ...
Mice deficient in the transcriptional repressor B-cell CLL/lymphoma 6 (Bcl6) exhibit similar T helper 2 (TH2) immune responses as patients with allergic diseases. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying Bcl6-directed regulation of TH2 cytokine genes remain unclear. We identified multiple Bcl6/STAT binding sites (BSs) in TH2 cytokine gene loci. We found that Bcl6 is modestly associated with...
Th1 cells that produce IFN-gamma are essential in the elimination of intracellular pathogens, and Th2 cells that synthetize IL-4 control the eradication of helminths. However, highly polarized Th1 or Th2 responses may be harmful and even lethal. Thus, the development of strategies to selectively down-modulate Th1 or Th2 responses is of therapeutic importance. Herein, we demonstrate that dihydro...
