The transcription factor GATA3 is a downstream effector of Hoxb1 specification in rhombomere 4 [PDF]
Abstract In this paper, we show that the transcription factor GATA3 is dynamically expressed during hindbrain development. Function of GATA3 in ventral rhombomere (r) 4 is dependent on functional GATA2, which in turn is under the control of Hoxb1.

Changes in the Expression of Transcription Factors Involved in Modulating the Expression of EPO-R in Activated Human CD4-Positive Lymphocytes. [PDF]
We have recently described the presence of the erythropoietin receptor (EPO-R) on CD4(+) lymphocytes and demonstrated that its expression increases during their activation, reaching a level reported to be typical for erythroid progenitors.

T helper-2 (Th2) cells and type 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) play crucial roles during type 2 immune responses; the transcription factor GATA3 is essential for the differentiation and functions of these cell types.

An updated view on transcription factor GATA3-mediated regulation of Th1 and Th2 cell differentiation [PDF]
CD4 T(h) are critical for orchestrating adaptive immune responses. The expression of the transcription factor GATA3 (GATA-binding protein 3) is up-regulated or down-regulated during T(h)2 or T(h)1 cell differentiation, respectively. Furthermore, GATA3 is responsible for induction of T(h)2 differentiation and represses T(h)1 differentiation.

Functional characterization of GATA3 mutations causing the hypoparathyroidism-deafness-renal (HDR) dysplasia syndrome: insight into mechanisms of DNA binding by the GATA3 transcription factor [PDF]
The hypoparathyroidism-deafness-renal (HDR) dysplasia syndrome is an autosomal dominant disorder caused by mutations of the dual zinc finger transcription factor, GATA3. We investigated 21 HDR probands and 14 patients with isolated hypoparathyroidism for GATA3 abnormalities. Thirteen different heterozygous germline mutations were identified in patients

GATA3 differentially regulates the transcriptome via zinc finger 2-modulated phase separation
Summary: Phase separation (PS) underlies gene control by transcription factors. However, little is known about whether and how DNA-binding domains (DBDs) regulate the PS for transcription factors to differentially regulate the transcriptome.

Genetic variation of the transcription factor GATA3, not STAT4, is associated with the risk of type 2 diabetes in the Bangladeshi population. [PDF]
Type 2 diabetes mellitus is a multifactorial metabolic disorder caused by environmental factors and has a strong association with hereditary issues. These hereditary issues result in an imbalance in CD4+T cells and a decreased level of naïve CD4+T cells,

The Transcription Factor GATA3 Is Essential for the Function of Human Type 2 Innate Lymphoid Cells [PDF]
Type 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) are part of a large family of ILCs that are important effectors in innate immunity, lymphoid organogenesis, and tissue remodeling. ILC2s mediate parasite expulsion but also contribute to airway inflammation, emphasizing the functional similarity between these cells and Th2 cells. Consistent with this, we report that
