T Cell, Ig Domain, Mucin Domain-2 Gene-Deficient Mice Reveal a Novel Mechanism for the Regulation of Th2 Immune Responses and Airway Inflammation
1 Oct 2006
Abstract excerpt
The development of asthma and other atopic diseases is influenced by cytokines produced by Th2 effector T cells. How effector T cell responses are regulated once these cell populations are established remains unclear. The recently described T cell and airway phenotype regulator locus, containing the T cell, Ig domain, mucin domain (TIM) genes, is genetically associated with Th2 cytokine production and...
