Genome-Wide Gene Expression Profiling Revealed a Critical Role for GATA3 in the Maintenance of the Th2 Cell Identity. [PDF]
Functionally polarized CD4+ T helper (Th) cells such as Th1, Th2 and Th17 cells are central to the regulation of acquired immunity. However, the molecular mechanisms governing the maintenance of the polarized functions of Th cells remain unclear.

Increased Proportion of Dual-Positive Th2–Th17 Cells Promotes a More Severe Subtype of Asthma
Asthma is a heterogeneous disease, and abnormal activation of T cells is the driving link of asthma’s pathophysiological changes. Dual-positive Th2–Th17 cells, as newly discovered T-helper cells, have the functions of Th2 and Th17 cells and can coproduce

Metabolic Interdependency of Th2 Cell-Mediated Type 2 Immunity and the Tumor Microenvironment
The function of T cells is critically dependent on their ability to generate metabolic building blocks to fulfil energy demands for proliferation and consecutive differentiation into various T helper (Th) cells.

Phenotypic Analysis of Nasal CD69 CD4 Tissue-Resident Memory T Cells in Eosinophilic Chronic Rhinosinusitis With Nasal Polyps [PDF]
Background and Objectives Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is a heterogeneous inflammatory disease, classified into eosinophilic and non-eosinophilic subtypes. Although CD4+ tissue-resident memory T (TRM) cells play diverse roles in tissue homeostasis, their

Infections by the soil-transmitted threadworm Strongyloides stercoralis affect 30–100 million people worldwide, predominantly in tropic and sub-tropic regions. Here we assessed the T helper cell phenotypes in threadworm-infected patients and experimental

Regulation of Th2 Cell Immunity by Dendritic Cells [PDF]
Th2 cell immunity is required for host defense against helminths, but it is detrimental in allergic diseases in humans. Unlike Th1 cell and Th17 cell subsets, the mechanism by which dendritic cells modulate Th2 cell responses has been obscure, in part because of the inability of dendritic cells to provide IL-4, which is indispensable for Th2 cell ...

Group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) are thought to contribute to the pathogenesis of atopic dermatitis (AD). IL-4 stimulates T helper type 2 (Th2) cells and ILC2s to proliferate and produce cytokines. Dupilumab, an antibody against the IL-4 receptor, is

Menin Controls the Memory Th2 Cell Function by Maintaining the Epigenetic Integrity of Th2 Cells [PDF]
Abstract Posttranslational modifications of histones are well-established epigenetic modifications that play an important role in gene expression and regulation. These modifications are partly mediated by the Trithorax group (TrxG) complex, which regulates the induction or maintenance of gene transcription.
