T-cell response Flashcards
reference for main paper
Kaiko, 2008
aberrant T cell response
underlines many diseases e.g. asthma and autoimmune disease
immune elements of diseases such as asthma and autoimmune diseases..
T helper cells
- Th1 and Th2
- Th17
in order to identify crucial processes in the pathogenesis of diseases
critical to understand how development of T cell occurs
the elucidation of the mechanisms of selection of T cell phenotype wull
facilitate the development of therapeutic strategies
development of polarised Th cells from naive T cell is complex involving stimulation from
TLRs
activation and maturation of DCs, which leads to TCR engagement and cytokine release
phenotype f T cell is
influenced by the tissue microenvironment
Th1 development is promoted by
IL-12
IL-18
T1 IFN
IFN-Y
Th1 involve what signalling
STAT1, -2,-3 and T0bet signaling
Th1 development probably promoted by
IL-4
IL-6
IL-11
ICOS costimualting
Th2 involve what signalling
STAT6, GATA-3 and c-MAf
what needs further research
a better understanding of these phenotypes
in diseases such as
multiple sclerosis, asthma and IBD aberrant CD4 T cell response plays a crucial role in pathogenesis
understanding the mechanisms of polarisation of aberrant T cells
is pivotal for the development of effective prevention and treatment
