Abstract Differentiation of naive CD4+ T cells (Th0) into Th1 or Th2 cells determines whether antigen will raise a cellular or a humoral immune response. The maturation pathway chosen by the Th0 cell is often decisive for the outcome of disease and depends among others on the (co-)stimulatory attributes of the APC and the nature and abundance of cytokines provided by the APC and the microenvironment. In this study, we used macrophages, loaded ex vivo with antigen, for inciting Th0 activation and differentiation in vivo. The macrophages were derived from a clonal, immortalized population that b

Abstract Infection with N. gonorrhoeae triggers an intense inflammatory response characterized by an influx of neutrophils, yet natural infection does not induce effective specific immunity or immune memory. Our previous studies have demonstrated in a murine model of vaginal gonococcal infection that innate immunity governed by Th17 cells was the mainstay of the immune responses elicited by this pathogen. Herein we show in vitro that N. gonorrhoeae could specifically inhibit Th1 and Th2 responses of mouse CD4 T cells, but enhance Th17 response. We found that N. gonorrhoeae increased production

Abstract Many studies have classified CD4 responses into either Th1-like or Th2-like, based on cytokine secretion profiles, but little significance has been placed on Th0 cells.

Here, we show that priming of Ag-specific naive CD4 cells with moderate dose IL-4 generates a Th0 population that is evident after 3 days in vitro and becomes prevalent after successive encounters with Ag over a 9-day period.

Abstract In the present study, the T15 idiotype-recognizing T helper cell circuit was dissected with respect to its homeostasis, interactive specificity, stability over time, and effects on B cell expression. Analysis of the TH1 cells by adoptive transfer experiments indicates their short-lived state of activity, during which TH2 cells are stimulated. TH1 cell activity was also directly monitored by the use of TNP-anti-T15 hybridoma antigens. It was found that TH1 cells are detected 1 wk after priming with PC-Hy, whereas TH2 cells become activated after 4 wk of priming. Comparative analysis of

Although Th2 clones apparently showed higher IL-10 mRNA levels, IL-10 mRNA expression was consistently found in Th1 clones, as well. Likewise, measurable IL-10 levels were found in the supernatants of both Th1 and Th2 clones. The effect of human IL-10 (h-IL-10) and viral IL-10 (v-IL-10) on the proliferative response and cytokine production by Th1 and Th2 human clones was also investigated. Addition in cu

Abstract:
Abstract CD4+ T cells differentiate in response to specific cytokine environments that induce the activation of STAT transcription factors and, ultimately, cell-specific gene profiles. The differentiation of TH2 cells requires the cytokines IL-4 and IL-2, which signal via the activation of STAT6 and STAT5, respectively. Interestingly, signaling via the IL-2/STAT5 axis is also required for the differentiation of the TH1 cell type. Our lab recently found that IL-2 signaling induces expression of the Ikaros Zinc Finger (IkZF) transcription factor Eos (Ikzf4) in TH1 cells, and that Eos positively

Commensalism is critical to a healthy Th1/Th2 cell balance.

We identify Toll-like receptors as crucial to the convergence of innate and adaptive responses stimulated by PSA. Optimization of the Th1 cytokine interferon-γ in PSA-stimulated dendritic cell–CD4+ T cell co-cultures depends on both Toll-like receptor (TLR) 2 and antigen presentation.

These phenotypes are crucial in determining the type of immune response that develops after antigen priming. There are no surface markers that define them, and cytokine immunoassay or mRNA analysis both have limitations for characterization of single cells.

Th2 clones secreted IL-4 in response to Ag presented by resting B cells, but their optimal proliferation required the addition of IL-1 or a source of IL-1.

Circulating CXCL10 levels inversely correlate with disease duration; CXCL10 maximal expression also correlates with interferon (IFN)γ levels in recent GD onset.
