FOXP3 and RORγt: transcriptional regulation of Treg and Th17.
نویسندگان
چکیده
FOXP3(+)CD4(+)CD25(+) Regulatory T (Treg) cells and IL-17 producing helper T cells (Th17) are critical subsets of T cells which play essential roles in immune homeostasis. The Forkhead family transcription factor FOXP3 is predominantly expressed in Treg cells, where the FOXP3 ensemble is essential for Treg cell development and function. As FOXP3 is to Treg cells, the orphan retinoic acid nuclear receptor (ROR) family transcription factor RORγt is essential for Th17 development and function. In this review, we summarize recent progress of our understanding towards the molecular mechanisms underlying the differentiation and function of FOXP3(+) Treg cells and RORγt expressing Th17 cells. These may provide new insights into therapeutic intervention and targeting of human immune-deficient diseases.

Objective(s): This study aimed to investigate the role and the possible mechanisms involved in the immunoregulation of experimental periodontitis by Th17/Treg. Materials and Methods: Experimental periodontitis was established by silk thread ligation with Porphyromonasgingivalis daubing in the bilateral maxillary second molar of Male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats. Alveolar bones were scanned by Micro...

Objective: In Persian medicine (PM), wet-cupping therapy (WCT) is the most utilized approach. WCT is mostly done between the shoulders, which is referred to as “hejamt-e-aam” in the Persian language. CD4+T cells also refer to T helper lymphocytes play a critical role in the immune system. Naïve CD4+ T cells differentiate into at least four subsets, T helper 1 (Th1), T helper 2 (Th2), T helper 1...

Objective(s): Multiple sclerosis (MS) is considered as a chronic type of an inflammatory disease characterized by loss of myelin of CNS.Recent evidence indicates that Interleukin 17 (IL-17)-producing T helper cells (Th17 cells) population are increased and regulatory T cells (Treg cells) are decreased in MS. Despite extensive research in understanding the mechanism of Th17 and Treg differentiat...
متن کاملThe Effect of Plasma Exchange on the Expression of FOXP3 and RORC2 in Relapsed Multiple Sclerosis Patients
Background: Lack of sufficient information on the mechanism of plasma exchange (PE) therapy in multiple sclerosis (MS), has limited this treatment to individual patients with severe relapses who have been refractory to other treatments. This is while PE is used very successfully as a first-line standard treatment in many other neuro-immune disorders. Recent data suggest that Treg/Th17 counterb...

The standard treatment for aplastic anemia (AA) in young patients is a matched sibling hematopoietic stem cell transplant. Transfusion of a chronic AA patient with allogeneic bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (BMMSCs) is currently being developed as a cell-based therapy, and the safety and efficacy of such transfusions are being continuously improved. Nevertheless, the mechanisms by...
