The murine Th2 locus undergoes epigenetic modification in the thymus during fetal and postnatal ontogeny.
Epigenetic modifications play a central role in the differentiation and function of immune cells in adult animals. Developmentally regulated epigenetic patterns also appear to contribute to the ontogeny of the immune system. We show here that the epigenetic profile of the T-helper (Th) 2 locus under...
