How quantitative differences in dendritic cell maturation can direct TH1/TH2-cell polarization
The polarization of TH1 or TH2 responses by dendritic cells (DCs) requires distinct maturation conditions. Our data indicate that quantitative differences in DC maturation dictate a TH1 or TH2-cell polarization outcome. We discuss how chromatin remodeling at DC loci coding for pro-inflammatory vs. polarizing cytokines may explain differential TH-cell polarization.
متن کاملProduction of TH1 and TH2 cell lines and clones.
This unit describes protocols for the generation of polyclonal T(H)1 and T(H)2 cell lines from naive CD4(+) T cells as well as for generation of antigen-specific cell lines from TCR-transgenic mice and antigen-specific T cell clones from primed mice. Also described are methods for the preparation and maintenance of alloreactive murine helper T (T(H)) lymphocyte and cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) ...
متن کاملTh1/Th2/Th17 and regulatory T-cell paradigm in pregnancy.
T-helper (Th) cells play a central role in modulating immune responses. The Th1/Th2 paradigm has now developed into the new Th1/Th2/Th17 paradigm. In addition to effector cells, Th cells are regulated by regulatory T (Treg) cells. Their capacity to produce cytokines is suppressed by immunoregulatory cytokines such as transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta and interleukin (IL)-10 or by cell-to-ce...
متن کاملTh1 and Th2 cells help CD8 T-cell responses.
Help from CD4 T cells is often important for the establishment of primary and memory CD8 T-cell responses. However, it has yet to be determined whether T helper polarization affects the delivery of help and/or whether responding CD8 T cells helped by Th1 or Th2 cells express distinct effector properties. To address these issues, we compared CD8 T-cell responses in the context of Th1 or Th2 help...
متن کاملProstaglandin D2 and leukotriene E4 synergize to stimulate diverse TH2 functions and TH2 cell/neutrophil crosstalk
BACKGROUND Prostaglandin D2 (PGD2) and cysteinyl leukotrienes (cysLTs) are lipid mediators derived from mast cells, which activate TH2 cells. The combination of PGD2 and cysLTs (notably cysteinyl leukotriene E4 [LTE4]) enhances TH2 cytokine production. However, the synergistic interaction of cysLTs with PGD2 in promoting TH2 cell activation is still poorly understood. The receptors for these me...
