GATA3 haploinsufficiency does not block allergic sensitization or atopic disease
Analysis of cytokine production by CD3+CD4+CD27-CD45RO+ effector memory T cells following stimulation with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA)/ionomycin demonstrated a trend toward an increased frequency of IFN-γ-producing cells and a trend toward a decreased frequency of IL-4- and IL-13-producin...

Zusammenfassung: | Analysis of cytokine production by CD3+CD4+CD27-CD45RO+ effector memory T cells following stimulation with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA)/ionomycin demonstrated a trend toward an increased frequency of IFN-γ-producing cells and a trend toward a decreased frequency of IL-4- and IL-13-producing cells in patients (GATA3+/-) compared with healthy controls (GATA3wt), although there was wide variability and this did not reach statistical significance (Fig 1). Because previous reports have suggested a TH1 bias with a concomitant impairment in TH2 cytokine production,1 we next sought to determine whether there was a defect in TH2 differentiation. |
