CD4 cell-secreted, posttranslationally modified cytokine GIF suppresses Th2 responses by inhibiting the initiation of IL-4 production

T helper 2 (Th2) cells are critical to the induction of IgE antibody and allergic inflammation, but how the pathological pathways are controlled in nonallergic individuals remains unclear. Here we report that glycosylation-inhibiting factor (GIF) suppresses Th2 effector generation. GIF is a cytokine...
