Inhibitory control of feature selectivity in an object motion sensitive circuit of the retina [PDF]
Object motion sensitive (OMS) W3-retinal ganglion cells (W3-RGCs) in mice respond to local movements in a visual scene but remain silent during self-generated global image motion. The excitatory inputs that drive responses of W3-RGCs to local motion were

IL-27 suppresses Th2 cell development and Th2 cytokines production from polarized Th2 cells: a novel therapeutic way for Th2-mediated allergic inflammation. [PDF]
AbstractIL-27 up-regulates Th1 but down-regulates Th2 responses. However, its molecular mechanism and regulatory effects on polarized Th2 cells remain unclear. In this study, we have revealed that IL-27 inhibits Th2 cell development as well as Th2 cytokines production from already polarized Th2 cells by down-regulation of GATA-3 and up-regulation of T ...

Pollinosis in children and adolescents: modern aspects of pathogenesis and tendencies in therapy
The development of pollinosis in children and adolescents is determined by the influence of genetic and environmental factors. The pathogenetic basis of pollinosis in children and adolescents is the differentiation of Th0 to Th2, activation of Th2cells ...

Hypericum perforatum Alleviates Ovalbumin-Induced Asthma through Downregulating TH2 and Upregulating TH1 Related Parameters in BALB/C Mice [PDF]
Background: Allergic asthma is a chronic and inflammatory disease of the respiratory tract, which is characterized by inflammation, airway obstruction and swelling. Anti-inflammatory compounds can be used to improve the disease severity.

Cellular networks controlling Th2 polarization in allergy and immunity [PDF]
In contrast to the development of Th1 (type 1 T helper cells), Th17 and Treg (regulatory T cells), little is known of the mechanisms governing Th2 development, which is important for immunity to helminths and for us to understand the pathogenesis of ...

MicroRNAs regulate T-cell production of interleukin-9 and identify hypoxia-inducible factor-2a as an important regulator of T helper 9 and regularoty T-cell differentiation [PDF]
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) regulate many aspects of helper T cell (Th) development and function. Here we found that they are required for the suppression of interleukin‐9 (IL‐9) expression in Th9 cells and other Th subsets. Two highly related miRNAs (miR‐15b and
