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

Suppression of allergic airway inflammation by helminth-induced regulatory T cells [PDF]
Allergic diseases mediated by T helper type (Th) 2 cell immune responses are rising dramatically in most developed countries. Exaggerated Th2 cell reactivity could result, for example, from diminished exposure to Th1 cell–inducing microbial infections ...

Epicutaneous immunization with type II collagen inhibits both onset and progression of chronic collagen-induced arthritis. [PDF]
Epicutaneous immunization is a potential non-invasive technique for antigen-specific immune-modulation. Topical application of protein antigens to barrier-disrupted skin induces potent antigen-specific immunity with a strong Th2-bias.

Chitinase and Fizz family members are a generalized feature of nematode infection with selective Upregulation of Ym1 and F10.1 by antigen-presenting cells [PDF]
Ym1 and Fizz1 are secreted proteins that have been identified in a variety of Th2-mediated inflammatory settings. We originally found Ym1 and Fizz1 as highly expressed macrophage genes in a Brugia malayi infection model.

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

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 ...

Human CD4+ Memory T Cells Can Become CD4+IL-9+ T Cells [PDF]
Background: IL-9 is a growth factor for T- and mast-cells that is secreted by human Th2 cells. We recently reported that IL-4+TGF-β directs mouse CD4+CD25−CD62L+ T cells to commit to inflammatory IL-9 producing CD4+ T cells.

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.

The helminth product, ES-62, protects against airway inflammation by resetting the Th cell phenotype [PDF]
We previously demonstrated inhibition of ovalbumin (OVA)-induced allergic airway hyper-responsiveness in the mouse using ES-62, a phosphorylcholine-containing glycoprotein secreted by the filarial nematode, Acanthocheilonema viteae.
