How does the immune system tailor effector function to particular threats? Krueger et al. reveal that infection with Salmonella enterica (SE), but not with influenza A virus (IAV), drives interleukin (IL)-12-dependent outgrowth of interferon (IFN)-γ type 1 T helper (Th1) cells, leading to superior protection against this phagosomal pathogen. Among these cells are ZEB2-dependent cytotoxic Th1 cells marked by CX3CR1 expression.
免疫系统如何针对特定威胁调整效应功能?Krueger 等人揭示,感染沙门氏菌(SE)而非甲型流感病毒(IAV)会促使白细胞介素(IL)-12 依赖性干扰素(IFN)-γ 型 1 T 辅助(Th1)细胞的扩增,从而对这种吞噬体病原体提供更好的保护。在这些细胞中,依赖 ZEB2 的细胞毒性 Th1 细胞被 CX3CR1 表达所标记。
