SGK1 Governs the Reciprocal Development of Th17 and Regulatory T Cells
Cell Reports, 2018 A balance between Th17 and regulatory T (Treg) cells is critical for immune homeostasis and tolerance. Our previous work has shown Serum- and glucocorticoid-induced kinase 1 (SGK1) is critical for the development and function of Th17 cells. Here, we show

Checkpoint Receptor TIGIT Expressed on Tim-1+ B Cells Regulates Tissue Inflammation
Cell Reports, 2020 Summary: Tim-1, a phosphatidylserine receptor expressed on B cells, induces interleukin 10 (IL-10) production by sensing apoptotic cells. Here we show that mice with B cell-specific Tim-1 deletion develop tissue inflammation in multiple organs including ...

Persistent effects of early infant diet and associated microbiota on the juvenile immune system. [PDF]
, 2015 Early infant diet has significant impacts on the gut microbiota and developing immune system. We previously showed that breast-fed and formula-fed rhesus macaques develop significantly different gut microbial communities, which in turn are associated ...

RBPJ Controls Development of Pathogenic Th17 Cells by Regulating IL-23 Receptor Expression
Cell Reports, 2016 Interleukin-17 (IL-17)-producing helper T cells (Th17 cells) play an important role in autoimmune diseases. However, not all Th17 cells induce tissue inflammation or autoimmunity. Th17 cells require IL-23 receptor (IL-23R) signaling to become pathogenic.
