IRF4 knock-out cells do not differentiate properly into T helper subsets 2, 9, and 17. Compared to WT IRF4 point mutation L116R shows differentially expressed key cytokines. While amounts Th2 and Th17 cells are decreased, there is a strong induction of Th9 cells in cells carrying the L116R mutated IRF4.
IRF4 敲除细胞不能正确分化为 T 辅助细胞亚群 2、9 和 17。与 WT IRF4 点突变 L116R 相比,显示出差异表达的关键细胞因子。虽然 Th2 和 Th17 细胞的数量减少,但携带 L116R 突变 IRF4 的细胞中 Th9 细胞的诱导作用很强。
