69 12937840 Progressive ascitic growth of a spontaneous transplantable T-cell lymphoma, designated as Dalton's lymphoma (DL), in a murine host has been shown to be associated with an involution of thymus accompanied by a massive depletion of the cortical region and an alteration in the distribution of thymocytes by a decrease of CD4+CD8+, CD4+CD8- and CD4-CD8+ phenotypes caused by an enhanced induction of apoptosis in thymocytes.

74 14691261 Here, we analyze chromatin conformation of the 24-kb region of the Ifng gene during CD4(+) T helper (Th) cell differentiation.
75 15304658 When linked to the murine Ifng gene (-3.4 to +5.6 kb) and transiently transfected into EL-4 cells, these elements clearly enhanced IFN-gamma expression in response to ionomycin and phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate and weakly enhanced expression in response to T-bet.
76 15304658 A DNase I hypersensitive site and extragenic transcripts at IFNgCNS2 correlated positively with the capacity of primary T cell subsets to produce IFN-gamma.
77 15304658 Transcriptionally favorable histone modifications in the Ifng promoter, intronic regions, IFNgCNS2, and, although less pronounced, IFNgCNS1 increased as naïve T cells differentiated into IFN-gamma-producing effector CD8+ and T helper (TH) 1 T cells, but not into TH2 T cells.
78 15304658 Like IFN-gamma expression, these histone modifications were T-bet-dependent in CD4+ cells, but not CD8+ T cells.
79 15597669 The cytokine response detected in ABPA patients is of a CD4+ Th2 type as evidenced by the production of IL-4, IL-5, and very little or no IFN-g on stimulation of T-lymphocytes with Aspergillus antigens.
80 15659263 The role of distinct CD4+ T-cell populations in regulating the nature and strength of immune responses is well documented, and has in the past principally focused on the mutual antagonism between Th1 and Th2 cells, which secrete interferon (IFN)-gamma and interleukin (IL)-4, respectively.
81 15659263 However, the recent identification of T cells that secrete high levels of IL-10 and/or transforming growth factor-b, but not IFN-g or IL-4, called regulatory T (Tr) cells has prompted a paradigm shift in our understanding of the regulation of immune responses following infection.
82 16520391 T-bet regulates Th1 responses through essential effects on GATA-3 function rather than on IFNG gene acetylation and transcription.
83 16520391 T helper type 1 (Th1) development is facilitated by interrelated changes in key intracellular factors, particularly signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT)4, T-bet, and GATA-3.
84 16520391 Here we show that CD4+ cells from T-bet-/- mice are skewed toward Th2 differentiation by high endogenous GATA-3 levels but exhibit virtually normal Th1 differentiation provided that GATA-3 levels are regulated at an early stage by anti-interleukin (IL)-4 blockade of IL-4 receptor (R) signaling.
85 16520391 In addition, under these conditions, Th1 cells from T-bet-/- mice manifest IFNG promotor accessibility as detected by histone acetylation and deoxyribonuclease I hypersensitivity.
86 16520391 In related studies, we show that the negative effect of GATA-3 on Th1 differentiation in T-bet-/- cells arises from its ability to suppress STAT4 levels, because if this is prevented by a STAT4-expressing retrovirus, normal Th1 differentiation is observed.
87 16520391 Finally, we show that retroviral T-bet expression in developing and established Th2 cells leads to down-regulation of GATA-3 levels.
88 16520391 These findings lead to a model of T cell differentiation that holds that naive T cells tend toward Th2 differentiation through induction of GATA-3 and subsequent down-regulation of STAT4/IL-12Rbeta2 chain unless GATA-3 levels or function is regulated by T-bet.
89 16520391 Thus, the principal function of T-bet in developing Th1 cells is to negatively regulate GATA-3 rather than to positively regulate the IFNG gene.
90 16563877 CD8+ CTL (cytotoxic T-lymphocyte)-derived IFN-g may be especially important both for cells lacking MHC class II molecules, e.g. in the lung and for macrophages where mycobacteria can evade recognition during chronic infection by sequestering their antigens away from sensitized CD4+ T cells.
91 17093503 Here, we analyzed nuclear matrix attachment regions (MARs) in the Ifng gene by DNA array technique in unactivated and activated CD4+ Th cells.
92 17093503 The data suggest that such structural dynamics provide the means for transcriptional regulation of the Ifng gene in the course of activation and differentiation of CD4+Th cells.

98 17675500 Our data indicate that IL10 does not become epigenetically marked in human memory Th cells unlike effector cytokine genes such as IFNG.
99 17675500 The exclusion of IL-10, but not effector cytokines, from the functional memory of human CD4(+) T lymphocytes ex vivo may reflect the need for appropriate regulation of IL-10 secretion, due to its potent immunoregulatory potential.
100 17675500 IL-10 is excluded from the functional cytokine memory of human CD4+ memory T lymphocytes.

104 17715431 The proportions of CD4(+) and CD8(+) cells were unchanged, but the number of gamma delta T cells was increased by coculture with luteal cells.
105 17715431 The concentrations of interferon-gamma (IFNG) and interleukin 10 (IL10) were increased in luteal cell-T cell cocultures, whereas IL4 was undetectable, and IL12 was barely detectable in culture medium.
106 17981204 This cytokine is produced predominantly by natural killer (NK) and natural killer T (NKT) cells as part of the innate immune response, and by Th1 CD4 and CD8 cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) effector T cells once antigen-specific immunity develops.
107 17981204 The epigenetic modifications and three-dimensional structure of the Ifng locus in naive CD4 T cells, and the modifications they undergo as these cells differentiate into effector T cells, suggest a model whereby the chromatin architecture of Ifng is poised to facilitate either rapid opening or silencing during Th1 or Th2 differentiation, respectively.

110 17989360 We have found that, in response to interferon gamma (IFNG), mouse Sertoli cells strongly up-regulate the negative co-stimulatory ligand B7-H1 but remain devoid of positive co-stimulatory molecules.
111 17989360 Blockade of B7-H1 on the Sertoli cell surface resulted in enhanced proliferation of CD8(+) T cells cocultured with Sertoli cells.
112 17989360 Moreover, IFNG-stimulated Sertoli cells were found to express, concurrent with B7-H1, MHC class II.
113 17989360 Interestingly, we found that coculturing T cells with Sertoli cells can indeed induce an increase in CD4(+)CD25(+)(officially known as IL2RA)FOXP3(+) Tregs and a decrease in CD4(+)CD25(-) T cells, suggesting Sertoli cell-mediated Treg conversion; this process was found to be B7-H1-independent.
114 17989360 Altogether these data show that Sertoli cells are potentially capable of down-regulating the local immune response, on one hand by directly inhibiting CD8(+) T cell proliferation through B7-H1 and, on the other hand, by inducing an increase in Tregs that might suppress other bystander T cells.
115 18406471 Therefore, our data do not confirm a role for CD4 T-lymphocytes in protection, since there is no correlation between IFN-g secretion (supposed to be mainly derived from CD4 T-cells) and disease severity.
116 18406471 Additionally, we applied immunocytochemistry on affected lung tissue and detected no build up of T-lymphocytes (CD4 T-cells, CD8 T-cells) but a high presence of myeloid cells.

119 18549798 Janus-kinase-3-dependent signals induce chromatin remodeling at the Ifng locus during T helper 1 cell differentiation.
120 18549798 Differentiation of naive CD4+ T cells into T helper type 1 (Th1) effector cells requires both T cell receptor (TCR) signaling and cytokines such as interleukin-12 and interferon gamma (IFN-gamma).
121 18549798 Here, we report that a third cytokine signal, mediated by the Janus family tyrosine kinase 3 (Jak3) and signal transducer and activator of transcription 5 (STAT5) pathway, is also required for Th1 cell differentiation.
122 18549798 In the absence of Jak3-dependent signals, naive CD4+ T cells proliferate robustly but produce little IFN-gamma after Th1 cell polarization in vitro.
123 18549798 This defect is not due to reduced activation of STAT1 or STAT4 or to impaired upregulation of the transcription factor T-bet.
124 18549798 Instead, we find that T-bet binding to the Ifng promoter is greatly diminished in the absence of Jak3-dependent signals, correlating with a decrease in Ifng promoter accessibility and histone acetylation.
125 18549798 These data indicate that Jak3 regulates epigenetic modification and chromatin remodeling of the Ifng locus during Th1 cell differentiation.
126 18549798 Janus-kinase-3-dependent signals induce chromatin remodeling at the Ifng locus during T helper 1 cell differentiation.
127 18549798 Differentiation of naive CD4+ T cells into T helper type 1 (Th1) effector cells requires both T cell receptor (TCR) signaling and cytokines such as interleukin-12 and interferon gamma (IFN-gamma).
128 18549798 Here, we report that a third cytokine signal, mediated by the Janus family tyrosine kinase 3 (Jak3) and signal transducer and activator of transcription 5 (STAT5) pathway, is also required for Th1 cell differentiation.
129 18549798 In the absence of Jak3-dependent signals, naive CD4+ T cells proliferate robustly but produce little IFN-gamma after Th1 cell polarization in vitro.
130 18549798 This defect is not due to reduced activation of STAT1 or STAT4 or to impaired upregulation of the transcription factor T-bet.
131 18549798 Instead, we find that T-bet binding to the Ifng promoter is greatly diminished in the absence of Jak3-dependent signals, correlating with a decrease in Ifng promoter accessibility and histone acetylation.
132 18549798 These data indicate that Jak3 regulates epigenetic modification and chromatin remodeling of the Ifng locus during Th1 cell differentiation.
133 18684979 Surprisingly, human naive CD4(+) T lymphocytes displayed hypermethylation at the IFNG promoter region, which is in sharp contrast to the completely demethylated status of this region in mice.
134 18684979 Furthermore, CD19(+) B lymphocytes displayed hypomethylation at the IFNG promoter region with a similar pattern to Th1 effector cells.
135 18684979 We conclude that there are obvious interspecies differences in the methylation status of the IFNG gene in naive CD4(+) T lymphocytes, where Th1 commitment in human lymphocytes involves demethylation before IFNG expression.

195 19269042 The Decoy Receptor 3 (DcR3) is known to compete with the signalling receptors of the Fas ligand (FasL), LIGHT and the TNF-like molecule 1A (TL1A).
196 19269042 Treatment of PLP-specific lymph node cells with DcR3.Fc protein resulted in a suppression of IFN-g and IL-17, in a reduced proportion of Th17 cells and in a decrease of encephalitogenicity.
197 19269042 The Th17 response promoting cytokines IL-6 and IL-23 were suppressed by DcR3.Fc as well.
198 19269042 DcR3.Fc-treatment of CD4+ T cells with a defective FasL did not influence the production of IL-17 indicating that DcR3 suppresses IL-17 production by disruption of Fas-FasL interactions.
199 19384057 Recently, we reported a novel mechanism by which the T-box transcription factor T-bet interacts with JMJD3, an H3K27-demethylase, and Set7/9, an H3K4-methyltransferase (Genes Dev. 2008. 22: 2980-2993).
200 19384057 Therefore, studies examining the molecular mechanisms that account for the ability of T-bet to regulate Ifng and Cxcr3, prototypic CD4+ Th1 genes, have provided novel insight into essential regulatory events that occur at diverse developmental transitions.
201 19494038 Here, we present a comprehensive analysis of differential DNA methylation in human conventional CD4(+) T cells (Tconv) and CD4(+)CD25(+) regulatory T cells (Treg), cell types whose differentiation and function are known to be controlled by epigenetic mechanisms.
202 19494038 More than 100 differentially methylated regions (DMRs) were identified that are present mainly in cell type-specific genes (e.g., FOXP3, IL2RA, CTLA4, CD40LG, and IFNG) and show differential patterns of histone H3 lysine 4 methylation.
203 19689734 A continuous T-bet expression is required to silence the interleukin-4-producing potential in T helper type 1 cells.
204 19689734 To develop into committed T helper type 1 (Th1) cells, naive CD4(+) T cells not only need to acquire the capacity to produce interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma), but they also need to gain the ability to silence their interleukin-4 (IL-4) -producing potential.
205 19689734 We found that a lack of IL-4 stimulation was not sufficient to silence the IL-4-producing potential in activated CD4(+) T cells and that Th1-promoting factor was required.
206 19689734 Although it has been shown that T-bet is a crucial factor in suppressing Il4 gene expression, it is unclear whether a continuous presence of T-bet is required to silence the Il4 gene in Th1 cells.
207 19689734 To address this problem, we used an inducible form of T-bet - a T-bet-oestrogen receptor fusion molecule (T-bet-ER).
208 19689734 We found that the activation of T-bet during primary or secondary culture was sufficient to silence IL-4-producing potential.
209 19689734 On the other hand, the inactivation of T-bet after naïve CD4(+) T cells had differentiated into Th1 cells resulted in derepression of Il4 gene transcription.
210 19689734 Additionally, we found that T-bet is required to maintain Ifng expression.

230 19747638 Interferon gamma 13-CA-repeat homozygous genotype and a low proportion of CD4(+) lymphocytes are independent risk factors for cytomegalovirus reactivation with a high number of copies in hematopoietic stem cell transplantation recipients.
231 19747638 Cytomegalovirus (CMV) reactivation was analyzed in 92 recipients of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) in relation to the proportion of CD4(+) lymphocytes in blood and a microsatellite polymorphism within the first intron of the interferon-gamma (IFNG) gene.
232 19747638 Multivariate analysis demonstrated that the IFNG 13-CA-repeat homozygous genotype (odds ratio [OR] = 0.221; P = .044), a low proportion of CD4(+) lymphocytes (OR = 0.276; P = .050), and a lack of optimal (10/10 alleles) donor-recipient HLA match (OR = 15.19; P = .006) were independent risk factors for CMV reactivation with a high number of copies.

239 19828627 Ikaros is a regulator of Il10 expression in CD4+ T cells.
240 19828627 Here we show that Ikaros, a zinc finger DNA-binding protein, plays an important role in the regulation of Il10 in murine CD4(+) T cells.
241 19828627 Upon initial stimulation of the TCR, T cells deficient in Ikaros express significantly lower levels of IL-10 compared with wild-type T cells.
242 19828627 In addition, under Th2 skewing conditions, which induce IL-10 production by wild-type T cells, Ikaros null T cells are unable to properly differentiate, producing only low levels of IL-10.
243 19828627 Expression of a dominant-negative isoform of Ikaros in wild-type Th2 cells represses IL-10 production but does not significantly alter expression levels of the genes encoding the transcription factors GATA-3 and T-bet.
244 19828627 Furthermore, expression of Ikaros in Ikaros null T cells restores expression of the Th2 cytokines IL-10 and IL-4 while reducing production of the Th1 cytokine, IFN-gamma.
245 19828627 Coexpression of Ikaros and GATA-3 further increases IL-10 production, showing that these two factors have an additive effect on activating Il10 expression.
246 19828627 Finally, we show that Ikaros binds to conserved regulatory regions of the Il10 gene locus in Th2 cells, supporting a direct role for Ikaros in Il10 expression.
247 19828627 Thus, we provide evidence for Ikaros as a regulator of Il10 and Ifng gene expression and suggest a role for Ikaros in directing lineage-specific cytokine gene activation and repression.
248 19828627 Ikaros is a regulator of Il10 expression in CD4+ T cells.
249 19828627 Here we show that Ikaros, a zinc finger DNA-binding protein, plays an important role in the regulation of Il10 in murine CD4(+) T cells.

257 20018909 Blood and decidual CD4(+) T cells from 18 healthy first-trimester pregnant women were analyzed for expression of Treg-cell markers (CD25, FOXP3, CD127, CTLA4, and human leukocyte antigen-DR [HLA-DR]), chemokine receptors (CCR4, CCR6, and CXCR3), and the proliferation antigen MKI67 by six-color flow cytometry.
258 20018909 Using chemokine receptor expression profiles of CCR4, CCR6, and CXCR3 as markers for T(H)1, T(H)2, and T(H)17 cells, we showed that T(H)17 cells were nearly absent in decidua, whereas T(H)2-cell frequencies were similar in blood and decidua.
259 20018909 CCR6(+) T(H)1 cells, reported to secrete high levels of interferon gamma (IFNG), were fewer, whereas the moderately IFNG-secreting CCR6(-) T(H)1 cells were more frequent in decidua compared with blood.
260 20304822 Activating transcription factor 3 is a positive regulator of human IFNG gene expression.
261 20304822 IL-12 and IL-18 are essential for Th1 differentiation, whereas the role of IFN-alpha in Th1 development is less understood.
262 20304822 In this microarray-based study, we searched for genes that are regulated by IFN-alpha, IL-12, or the combination of IL-12 plus IL-18 during the early differentiation of human umbilical cord blood CD4(+) Th cells.
263 20304822 Twenty-six genes were similarly regulated in response to treatment with IL-12, IFN-alpha, or the combination of IL-12 plus IL-18.
264 20304822 Ectopic expression of ATF3 in CD4(+) T cells enhanced the production of IFN-gamma, the hallmark cytokine of Th1 cells, whereas small interfering RNA knockdown of ATF3 reduced IFN-gamma production.
265 20304822 Furthermore, ATF3 formed an endogenous complex with JUN in CD4(+) T cells induced to Th1.
266 20304822 Chromatin immunoprecipitation and luciferase reporter assays showed that both ATF3 and JUN are recruited to and transactivate the IFNG promoter during early Th1 differentiation.
267 20304822 Activating transcription factor 3 is a positive regulator of human IFNG gene expression.

270 20304822 Twenty-six genes were similarly regulated in response to treatment with IL-12, IFN-alpha, or the combination of IL-12 plus IL-18.
271 20304822 Ectopic expression of ATF3 in CD4(+) T cells enhanced the production of IFN-gamma, the hallmark cytokine of Th1 cells, whereas small interfering RNA knockdown of ATF3 reduced IFN-gamma production.
272 20304822 Furthermore, ATF3 formed an endogenous complex with JUN in CD4(+) T cells induced to Th1.
273 20304822 Chromatin immunoprecipitation and luciferase reporter assays showed that both ATF3 and JUN are recruited to and transactivate the IFNG promoter during early Th1 differentiation.

281 20346061 In kidney allografts, T cell mediated rejection (TCMR) is characterized by infiltration of the interstitium by T cells and macrophages, intense IFNG and TGFB effects, and epithelial deterioration.
282 20346061 This event creates the inflammatory compartment that recruits effector and effector memory CD4 and CD8 T cells, both cognate and noncognate, and macrophage precursors.
283 20399120 The transcription factor GATA3 actively represses RUNX3 protein-regulated production of interferon-gamma.
284 20399120 The transcription factor GATA3 is crucial for the differentiation of naive CD4(+) T cells into T helper 2 (Th2) cells.
285 20399120 Here, we show that deletion of Gata3 allowed the appearance of interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma)-producing cells in the absence of interleukin-12 (IL-12) and IFN-gamma.
286 20399120 Such IFN-gamma production was transcription factor T-bet independent.
287 20399120 Another T-box-containing transcription factor Eomes, but not T-bet, was induced both in GATA3-deficient CD4(+) T cells differentiated under Th2 cell conditions and in Th2 cells with enforced Runx3 expression, contributing to IFN-gamma production.
288 20399120 GATA3 overexpression blocked Runx3-mediated Eomes induction and IFN-gamma production, and GATA3 protein physically interacted with Runx3 protein.
289 20399120 Furthermore, we found that Runx3 directly bound to multiple regulatory elements of the Ifng gene and that blocking Runx3 function in either Th1 or GATA3-deficient "Th2" cells results in diminished IFN-gamma production by these cells.
290 20399120 Thus, the Runx3-mediated pathway, actively suppressed by GATA3, induces IFN-gamma production in a STAT4- and T-bet-independent manner.

308 20963786 Changes in histone acetylation and methylation that are important for persistent but not transient expression of CCR4 in human CD4+ T cells.
309 20963786 Although regulation of CXCR3 and CCR4 is related to Th1 and Th2 differentiation, respectively, many CXCR3(+) and CCR4(+) cells do not express IFN-γ and/or IL-4, suggesting that the chemokine receptor genes might be inducible by mechanisms that are lineage-independent.
310 20963786 We investigated the regulation of CXCR3 versus IFNG, and CCR4 versus IL4 in human CD4(+) T cells by analyzing modifications of histone H3.
311 20963786 In naïve cord-blood cells, under nonpolarizing conditions not inducing IL4, CCR4 was induced to high levels without many of the activation-associated changes in promoter histone H3 found for both IL4 and CCR4 in Th2 cells.

323 21321581 Protection against diabetes was accompanied by histone hyperacetylation in pancreas and spleen, enhanced frequency of CD4(+) CD62L(+) cells in the spleen, reduction in cellular infiltration of islets, restoration of normoglycemia and glucose-induced insulin release by beta cells.
324 21321581 Activation of splenic T lymphocytes derived from protected mice in vitro with pharmacological agents that bypass the antigen receptor or immobilized anti-CD3 antibody resulted in enhanced expression of Ifng mRNA and protein without altering the expression of Il4, Il17, Il18, Inos and Tnfa genes nor the secretion of IL-2, IL-4, IL-17 and TNF-α proteins.
325 21321581 Consistently, expression of the transcription factor involved in Ifng transcription, Tbet/Tbx21 but not Gata3 and Rorgt, respectively, required for the transcription of Il4 and Il17, was upregulated in activated splenocytes of protected mice.
326 21518797 The lineage-defining factors T-bet and Bcl-6 collaborate to regulate Th1 gene expression patterns.
327 21518797 The T-box transcription factor T-bet is important for the differentiation of naive CD4(+) T helper cells (Th cells) into the Th1 phenotype.
328 21518797 In this study, we first identify Socs1, Socs3, and Tcf7 (TCF-1) as gene targets that are negatively regulated by T-bet.
329 21518797 Consistent with this, we identified two T-bet DNA-binding elements in the Socs1 promoter that are functionally used to down-regulate transcription in primary Th1 cells.
330 21518797 Furthermore, T-bet functionally recruits Bcl-6 to the Ifng locus in late stages of Th1 differentiation to repress its activity, possibly to prevent the overproduction of IFN-γ, which could result in autoimmunity.
331 21573182 There were no differences in early IFN-g and IL-10 expression between WT and IL-13-/- mice and depletion of CD4+ T cells did not affect infection in IL-13-/- mice.
332 21573182 Collectively, these data demonstrate a lack of CD4+ T cell involvement and a novel role for IL-13 in innate responses to infection.

335 21706005 One of the signature microRNAs of naive CD4+ T cells, miR-125b, regulated the expression of genes encoding molecules involved in T cell differentiation, including IFNG, IL2RB, IL10RA and PRDM1.

352 21983879 T-bet orchestrates the differentiation of mature peripheral T-cells into interferon-γ (IFN-γ) and tumor necrosis factor-α producing CD4+ T-helper type I (Th1) and CD8+ T cytotoxic cells that are necessary for antiviral responses.
353 21983879 When IL-12 is produced by antigen-presenting cells, T-bet expression is induced, causing direct stimulation of ifng gene transcription while simultaneously acting as a transcriptional repressor of the IL4 gene, which then leads to Th1 dominance and T-helper type 2 differentiation blockade.
354 21983879 We found that treatment with a farnesyltransferase inhibitor tipifarnib reduced Th1 cytokines in LGL leukemia patient T-cells and blocked T-bet protein expression and IL-12 responsiveness in T-cells from healthy donors.
355 22407948 Previous studies have shown that short-term (4 weeks) or chronic (32 weeks) exposure to trichloroethylene (TCE) in drinking water of female MRL+/+ mice generated CD4(+) T cells that secreted increased levels of interferon (IFN)-γ and expressed an activated (CD44(hi)CD62L(lo)) phenotype.
356 22407948 Also observed was an increase in the expression of Dnmt1 (DNA methyltransferase-1) and decreased expression of several genes known to be downregulated by DNA methylation, namely Ifng, Il2, and Cdkn1a.
357 22407948 CD4(+) T cells from a second study in which MRL+/+ mice were treated for 17 weeks with TCE showed a similar increase in Iap and decrease in Cdkn1a.

360 22407948 CD4(+) T cells from a second study in which MRL+/+ mice were treated for 17 weeks with TCE showed a similar increase in Iap and decrease in Cdkn1a.
361 22578563 To test this hypothesis, mice deficient in genes regulating IFN-γ expression (Casp1, Nlrp3, Il12a, Il12b, Stat4) or function (Ifngr1, Irf1) were examined for mHgIA susceptibility.
362 22578563 Absence of either Ifngr1 or Irf1 resulted in a striking reduction of disease, while deficiency of genes promoting IFN-γ expression had modest to no effect.
363 22578563 Furthermore, both Irf1- and Ifng-deficiency only modestly reduced the expansion of CD44(hi) and CD44(hi)CD55(lo) CD4(+) T cells, indicating that they are not absolutely required for T cell activation.
364 22649557 Interestingly, the latter delay or protection from T1D is associated with the enhanced secretion of IL-10 rather than IFN-g by C24:0-treated CD4(+) T cells and the deviation of the islet-reactive diabetogenic T cell response.
365 22837486 CD4+ T cell-dependent IFN-γ production by CD8+ effector T cells in Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection.
366 22837486 Both CD4+ and CD8+ T cells contribute to immunity to tuberculosis, and both can produce the essential effector cytokine IFN-γ.
367 22837486 We found that CD4+ and CD8+ cells were predominantly responsible for production of this cytokine in vivo, and we observed a remarkable linear correlation between the fraction of CD4+ cells and the fraction of CD8+ cells producing IFN-γ in the lungs.
368 22837486 In the absence of CD4+ cells, a reduced fraction of CD8+ cells was actively producing IFN-γ in vivo, suggesting that CD4+ effector cells are continually required for optimal IFN-γ production by CD8+ effector cells.

420 23144609 T-cell immune responses modulated by T-cell immunoglobulin and mucin domain-containing molecule 3 (Tim-3) during Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) infection in humans remain poorly understood.
421 23144609 Here, we found that active TB patients exhibited increases in numbers of Tim-3-expressing CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells, which preferentially displayed polarized effector memory phenotypes.
422 23144609 Consistent with effector phenotypes, Tim-3(+)CD4(+) and Tim-3(+)CD8(+) T-cell subsets showed greater effector functions for producing Th1/Th22 cytokines and CTL effector molecules than Tim-3(-) counterparts, and Tim-3-expressing T cells more apparently limited intracellular Mtb replication in macrophages.

424 23144609 Furthermore, stimulation of Tim-3 signaling pathways by antibody cross-linking of membrane Tim-3 augmented effector function of IFN-γ production by CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells, suggesting that Tim-3 signaling helped to drive stronger effector functions in active TB patients.

450 23459632 The number of bone marrow MSCs inversely correlated with the number of both CD4 and CD8 T cells present in the bone marrow indicating a link between activated T cells and MSC mobilization.
451 23464355 Interleukin-27 (IL-27) is a heterodimeric cytokine of the IL-12 family that is produced primarily by antigen-presenting cells and is immunosuppressive toward a variety of immune cell types.
452 23464355 We show that IL-27 gene expression is elevated in cord blood-derived macrophages relative to macrophages originating from healthy adults.
453 23464355 We also evaluated the duration over which elevated IL-27 gene expression may impact immune responses in mice.
454 23464355 Age-dependent analysis of IL-27 gene expression indicated that levels of IL-27 remained significantly elevated throughout infancy and then declined in adult mice.
455 23464355 Neutralization of IL-27 in neonatal macrophages improved the ability of these cells to limit bacterial replication.
456 23464355 Moreover, neutralization of IL-27 during incubation with the Mycobacterium bovis bacillus Calmette-Guérin vaccine augmented the level of interferon-γ elicited from allogeneic CD4+ T lymphocytes.
457 23464355 This suggests that blocking IL-27 during vaccination and infection may improve immune responses in newborn and infant populations.
458 23609452 60-kDa Tat-interactive protein (TIP60) positively regulates Th-inducing POK (ThPOK)-mediated repression of eomesodermin in human CD4+ T cells.
459 23609452 The abundant expression of IFNγ in Th-inducing POK (ThPOK)-deficient CD4(+) T cells requires the activation of Eomesodermin (Eomes); however, the underlying mechanism of this phenomenon remains unclear.
460 23609452 Here we report that ThPOK binds directly to the promoter region of the Eomes gene to repress its expression in CD4(+) T cells.
461 23609452 We identified the histone acetyltransferase TIP60 as a co-repressor of ThPOK-target genes, where ectopically expressed TIP60 increased ThPOK protein stability by promoting its acetylation at its Lys(360) residue to then augment the transcriptional repression of Eomes.
462 23609452 Moreover, knockdown of endogenous TIP60 abolished the stabilization of ThPOK in CD4(+) T cells, which led to the transcriptional activation of Eomes and increased production of IFNγ.
463 23609452 Our results reveal a novel pathway by which TIP60 and ThPOK synergistically suppresses Eomes function and IFNγ production, which could contribute to the regulation of inflammation.

482 23613752 Interferon gamma suppresses collagen-induced arthritis by regulation of Th17 through the induction of indoleamine-2,3-deoxygenase.
483 23613752 C57BL/6 mice are known to be resistant to the development of collagen-induced arthritis (CIA).
484 23613752 Also, production of IL-17 by the splenocytes of the IFN-γ KO mice was increased when cultured with type II collagen.
485 23613752 The proportion of CD44(high)CD62L(low) memory-like T cells were elevated in the spleen, draining lymph node and mesenteric lymph node of IFN-γ KO CIA mice.
486 23613752 Meanwhile, CD44(low)CD62L(high) naïve T cells were increased in IFN-γ and IL-17 double KO CIA mice.
487 23613752 When Th17 polarized CD4+ T cells of IFN-γ KO mice were co-cultured with their own antigen presenting cells (APCs), a greater increase in IL-17 production was observed than in co-culture of the cells from wild type mice.
488 23663684 Upon dendritic cell activation in the adventitia, CD4 T cells co-expressing CD161 are recruited in the arterial wall and polarised into Th1 and Th17 cells that produce IFN-γ and IL-17, respectively.
489 23663684 Macrophages infiltrating the adventitia produce IL-1β and IL-6, which are responsible for the general symptoms encountered in GCA.
490 23668260 The infected mice displayed a significant up-regulation in the expression of chemokines (Cxcl1, Cxcl2 and Ccl2), numerous pro-inflammatory cytokines (Ifng, Il1b, Il6, and Il17f), as well as Il22 and a number of anti-microbial peptides (Defa1, Defa28, Defb1, Slpi and Reg3g) at the site(s) of infection.
491 23668260 However, CD4 T cells of the untreated and C. difficile-infected mice expressed similar levels of CD69 and CD25.
492 23668260 Neither tissue had up-regulated levels of Tbx21, Gata3 or Rorc.
493 23668260 They also displayed significantly higher phosphorylation of AKT and signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3), an indication of pro-survival signalling.
494 23668260 These data underscore the local, innate, pro-inflammatory nature of the response to C. difficile and highlight eIF2α phosphorylation and the interleukin-22-pSTAT3-RegIIIγ axis as two of the pathways that could be used to contain and counteract the damage inflicted on the intestinal epithelium.
495 23755752 Histone modifications of Notch1 promoter affect lung CD4+ T cell differentiation in asthmatic rats.
496 23755752 The present study aimed to explore the histone modifications of Notch1 promoter in normal and asthmatic lung CD4+ T cells.
497 23755752 Chromatin immunoprecipitation analysis showed that the acetylation levels of total H3, H4, site-specific H3K9, H3K14, H3K27, H3K18, H4K16, and the trimethylation levels of H3K4, H3K79 of Notch1 gene promoter were increased significantly in asthmatic lung CD4+ T cells compared to the control group, which correlated with increased P300, PCAF activity and decreased HDAC1, HDAC2 activity.
498 23755752 After intervention of garcinol, a potent inhibitor of histone acetyltransferases, in asthmatic lung CD4+ T cells, HAT activity decreased significantly and the increased Notch1 and hes-1 expression was reversed.
499 23755752 Results showed that the levels of IL-4, IL-5 and IL-13 were significantly reduced and a small reverse trend was found in the level of IFN-g after GAR treatment.

515 23761633 STAT4 and T-bet are required for the plasticity of IFN-γ expression across Th2 ontogeny and influence changes in Ifng promoter DNA methylation.
516 23761633 CD4(+) T cells developing toward a Th2 fate express IL-4, IL-5, and IL-13 while inhibiting production of cytokines associated with other Th types, such as the Th1 cytokine IFN- γ.
517 23761633 We now show that this flexibility ("plasticity") of cytokine expression is preceded by a loss of the repressive DNA methylation of the Ifng promoter acquired during Th2 polarization yet requires STAT4 along with T-box expressed in T cells.
518 23761633 Surprisingly, loss of either STAT4 or T-box expressed in T cells increased Ifng promoter CpG methylation in both effector and memory Th2 cells.
519 23798565 Suppression is associated with development of a regulatory population of donor CD4(+) CD25(+)T-cells that express high levels of cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen 4 (CTLA-4).
520 23798565 CTLA-4 is a negative regulator of T-cell responses and is associated with the induction of tolerogenic dendritic cells (DCs) that produce indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO).
521 23798565 Here, we show that despite increased expression of Ifng, Irf3, Irf7, Ido1, and Ido2 in the lymph nodes of TCDD-treated host mice, inhibition of IDO enzyme activity by 1-methyl-tryptophan was unable to relieve TCDD-mediated suppression of the GVH response.
522 23800749 Furthermore, autophagy-attenuation in Hyp-PDT-treated cancer cells increased their ability to induce DC maturation, IL6 production and proliferation of CD4(+) or CD8(+) T cells, which was accompanied by IFNG production.
523 23939944 Here we show that human umbilical cord blood (UCB)-derived CD34+CD38-/low hematopoietic stem cells can be successfully differentiated into functional, antigen-specific cytotoxic CD8+ T cells without direct stromal coculture or retroviral TCR transfection.
524 23939944 Surface-immobilized Notch ligands (DLL1) and stromal cell conditioned medium successfully induced the development of CD1a+CD7+ and CD4+CD8+ early T cells.
525 23939944 These cells, upon continued culture with cytomegalovirus (CMV) or influenza-A virus M1 (GIL) epitope-loaded human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-A*0201 tetramers, resulted in the generation of a polyclonal population of CMV-specific or GIL-specific CD8+ T cells, respectively.
526 23939944 Upon further activation with antigen-loaded target cells, these antigen-specific, stem cell-derived T cells exhibited cytolytic functionality, specifically CD107a surface mobilization, interferon gamma (IFNg) production, and Granzyme B secretion.
527 24163409 Aggregates of activated IFN-γ- and IL-17A-secreting CD4(+) T cells as well as B cells surrounded the airways.
528 24163409 Lung pathology was similar in Ifng(-/-) and Il17a(-/-) mice, indicating that either cytokine is sufficient to establish chronic disease.

530 24167278 Gata3/Ruvbl2 complex regulates T helper 2 cell proliferation via repression of Cdkn2c expression.
531 24167278 GATA-binding protein 3 (Gata3) controls the differentiation of naive CD4 T cells into T helper 2 (Th2) cells by induction of chromatin remodeling of the Th2 cytokine gene loci, direct transactivation of Il5 and Il13 genes, and inhibition of Ifng.
532 24167278 We herein found that Gata3 associates with RuvB-like protein 2 (Ruvbl2) and represses the expression of a CDK inhibitor, cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 2c (Cdkn2c) to facilitate the proliferation of Th2 cells.
533 24167278 Gata3 directly bound to the Cdkn2c locus in an Ruvbl2-dependent manner.
534 24167278 We therefore have identified a functional Gata3/Ruvbl2 complex that regulates the proliferation of differentiating Th2 cells through the repression of a CDK inhibitor, Cdkn2c.
535 24204280 Moreover, we revealed that the presentation of HLA-DQβ enhanced by LANA knockdown did not help LANA-specific CD4+ T cell recognition of PEL cells, and the inhibition of CIITA by LANA is independent of IL-4 or IFN-γ signaling but dependent on the direct interaction of LANA with IRF-4 (an activator of both the pIII and pIV CIITA promoters).
536 24204576 Samples were analysed by immunofluorescence to identify the presence and abundance of B-B7 (B-cells), CD4 (LTh), CD8 (LTc), γδT cell receptor (TCR) and CD335/NKp46 (NK cells) -positive immune cells.
537 24204576 Quantitative real time PCR (QPCR) was carried out to analyse mRNA relative abundance of FOXP3 (a marker of regulatory T (Treg) cells) and a panel of immune factors, including MHC-I, LIF, Interleukins 1, 2, 6, 8, 10, 11,12A, IFNa and IFNG.
538 24204576 Results indicate that B-B7+ cells are quite populous in bovine endometrial tissue, CD4+ and CD8+ -cells are present in moderate numbers and γδTCR+ and CD335+ cells are present in low numbers.
539 24204576 Neither B lymphocytes nor T lymphocyte subsets were regulated temporally during the oestrous cycle or by pregnancy prior to implantation. mRNA transcript abundance of the immune factors LIF, IL1b, IL8 and IL12A, IFNa and IFNG, expression was regulated temporally during the estrous cycle and LIF, IL1b, IL-10, IL11, IL12A were also temporally regulated during pregnancy.

544 24216234 Rosette pre-depletion of blood was also investigated for detecting CD4+ or CD8+ T-cell responses using the IFN-g ELISPOT assay.
545 24216234 Rosette pre-depletion of whole blood proved to be effective in detecting CD4+ or CD8+ T-cell responses similarly to flow cytometry.

668 24313359 In the present study, we sought to identify functional differences between CD4(+) CD28(null) T cells from blood and synovial fluid in comparison with conventional CD28-expressing CD4(+) T cells.
669 24313359 Forty-four patients with RA, displaying a distinct CD4(+) CD28(null) T cell population in blood, were recruited for this study; the methylation status of the IFNG locus was examined in isolated T cell subsets, and intracellular cytokine production (IFN-γ, TNF, IL-17) and chemokine receptor expression (CXCR3, CCR6 and CCR7) were assessed by flow cytometry on T cells from the two compartments.
670 24313359 Circulating CD4(+) CD28(null) T cells were significantly more hypomethylated in the CNS-1 region of the IFNG locus than conventional CD4(+) CD28(+) T cells and produced higher levels of both IFN-γ and TNF after TCR cross-linking.
671 24313359 CD4(+) CD28(null) T cells from the site of inflammation expressed significantly more CXCR3 and CCR6 compared to their counterparts in blood.
672 24313359 While IL-17A production could hardly be detected in CD4(+) CD28(null) cells from the blood, a significant production was observed in CD4(+) CD28(null) T cells from synovial fluid.
673 24313359 CD4(+) CD28(null) T cells were not only found to differ from conventional CD4(+) CD28(+) T cells in the circulation, but we could also demonstrate that synovial CD4(+) CD28(null) T cells showed additional effector functions (IL-17 coproduction) as compared to the same subset in peripheral blood, suggesting an active role for these cells in the perpetuation of inflammation in the subset of patients having a CD28(null) population.
