NLRP3 moonlights in TH2 polarization
Nature Immunology, 2015As the cytosolic guardian for many microbial and sterile inflammatory insults, NLRP3 is best appreciated for its innate immunological role mediating inflammasome activation. Now NLRP3 debuts as a transcription factor key for TH2 polarization.

TH2 cell development and function
Nature Reviews Immunology, 2017T helper 2 (TH2) cells orchestrate protective type 2 immune responses, such as those that target helminths and facilitate tissue repair, but also contribute to chronic inflammatory diseases, such as asthma and allergy. Here, we review recent insights into how diverse molecular signals from cellular sources, including dendritic cells, innate lymphoid ...

Cytokines produced by T helper (Th) cells are of critical importance for the outcome of many infectious diseases. Producing the "right" set of cytokines in response to an infectious agent can be a matter of life or death. The Th1/Th2 dichotomy, although an oversimplification has proven useful in the analysis of immune responses to infections.

Nature Immunology, 2015
Optimal immunosuppression by regulatory T cells (Treg cells) relies on gene-expression and signaling modules that are customized to the target cell. The kinase CK2 is upregulated in Treg cells and controls a newly identified Treg cell subset that acts on dendritic cells to suppress T helper type 2 inflammatory responses in the lungs.

TH2-type cytokines, particularly interleukin-5, together with granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor and interleukin-3, orchestrate the eosinophil response in asthma. Eosinophils are believed to be prime proinflammatory effector cells causing bronchial damage, which in turn, leads to chronic asthma symptoms.

The Th1/Th2 balance in autoimmunity
Current Opinion in Immunology, 1995The study of autoimmune disease in the context of T-helper type 1 (Th1) and T-helper type 2 (Th2) CD4+ T-cell responses demonstrates that the relative contribution of either T-cell type to the development of a particular autoimmune response can influence whether or not this response leads to clinical disease.

A large body of evidence suggests the existence of functionally polarized human T cell responses based on their profile of cytokine secretion in both the CD4+ T helper (Th) and the CD8+ T cytotoxic (Tc) cell subset. Human Th1 and Th2 cells not only produce a different set of cytokines but also exhibit distinct functional properties and the preferential

The TH1/TH2 paradigm in allergy
Immunotechnology, 1998Recent evidence has been accumulated to suggest that allergen-reactive type 2 helper T cells (Th2) play a triggering role in the activation and/or recruitment of IgE antibody-producing B cells, mast cells and eosinophils, i.e. the cellular triad involved in the allergic inflammation.

Redirecting Th2 Responses in Allergy
1999Atopic diseases are genetically determined disorders which affect approximately 20%–30% of the general population in developed countries and whose prevalence is increasing over the last decades. They are characterized by an enhanced ability of B lymphocytes to produce IgE antibodies in response to certain groups of otherwise innocuous environmental ...
