Human Gene Set: GSE2770_UNTREATED_VS_IL4_TREATED_ACT_CD4_TCELL_6H_DN


Standard name GSE2770_UNTREATED_VS_IL4_TREATED_ACT_CD4_TCELL_6H_DN
Systematic name M6021
Brief description Genes down-regulated in CD4 [GeneID=920] T cells: untreated (0h) versus activated by anti-CD3 and anti-CD28 and then stimulated by IL4 [GeneID=3565] (6h).
Full description or abstract Th1 and Th2 cells arise from a common precursor cell in response to triggering through the TCR and cytokine receptors for IL-12 or IL-4. This leads to activation of complex signaling pathways, which are not known in detail. Disturbances in the balance between type 1 and type 2 responses can lead to certain immune-mediated diseases. Thus, it is important to understand how Th1 and Th2 cells are generated. To clarify the mechanisms as to how IL-12 and IL-4 induce Th1 and Th2 differentiation and how TGF-beta can inhibit this process, we have used oligonucleotide arrays to examine the early polarization of Th1 and Th2 cells in the presence and absence of TGF-beta after 0, 2, 6 and 48 hours of polarization.
