Balancing immune activation with Itk
Development of protective immune responses relies on a balance between proinflammatory CD4 T helper (Th) cell populations such as Th17 cells and regulatory CD4 T cells (Tregs) that keep immune activation in check. Evidence that interleukin-2–inducible T cell kinase (Itk) regulates this balance suppo...

Zusammenfassung: | Development of protective immune responses relies on a balance between proinflammatory CD4 T helper (Th) cell populations such as Th17 cells and regulatory CD4 T cells (Tregs) that keep immune activation in check. Evidence that interleukin-2–inducible T cell kinase (Itk) regulates this balance supports therapeutic applications for Itk inhibition.
