The Regulation of Th2 Cytokine Genes: Functional and Comparative Genomic Analysis
Immune responses to extracellular pathogens are mediated by the Th2 cytokines Interleukin (IL)-4, IL-5 and IL-13, which are typically expressed by T helper type-2 (Th2) cells. The genes for IL4, IL5 and IL13 are grouped together within 150 kb of human chromosome 5q31, and their expression is regulat...
