The Expression of ST2 Gene in Helper T Cells and the Binding of ST2 Protein to Myeloma-Derived RPMI8226 Cells
1 Jan 1997
Abstract excerpt
The ST2 gene, which is specifically induced by growth stimulation, encodes interleukin-1 receptor-related proteins. Using the RT-PCR method, we found that the ST2 gene was broadly expressed in hematopoietic cell lines. It was also expressed specifically in helper T cell lines among lymphocytic cell lines. We analyzed the expression of ST2 in mouse helper T cell subsets with Northern blotting analysis. Mouse Th1...
