GATA-3 transcriptional imprinting in Th2 lymphocytes: A mathematical model
26 Jun 2002
Abstract excerpt
Immunological memory involves the fast recall of cytokine expression by T helper (Th) lymphocytes. Two distinct profiles of cytokine expression, Th1 and Th2, can be induced by antigen and polarizing signals during activation of naive Th cells and can subsequently be reexpressed on stimulation by antigen alone. The transcription factor GATA-3 induces Th2 development. GATA-3 is activated by the Th2-polarizing...
