The Expression of T Cell FOXP3 and T-Bet Is Upregulated in Severe but Not Euthyroid Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis by Stana Tokić, Mario Štefanić, Ljubica Glavaš-Obrovac, Sonja Jaman, Eva Novosadová, Jana Petrkova, Zdenka Navratilova, Mirjana Suver Stević, Martin Petrek

“…Th1 and Treg subset of CD4+ cells have been implicated in the pathogenesis; however, less is known about their respective roles across the spectrum of HT clinical presentations. To shed more light on CD4+ subsets role in HT, we investigated the mRNA expression levels of several Th1/Treg-associated transcription factors (T-bet/ETS1, HIF1α/BLIMP1/FOXP3) in peripheral blood T cells of 10 hypothyroid, untreated HT patients, 10 hypothyroid patients undergoing hormone replacement therapy, 12 euthyroid HT subjects, and 11 healthy controls by the qRT-PCR. …”

Reducing the solubility of the major birch pollen allergen Bet v 1 by particle-loading mitigates Th2 responses by Amin Kraiem, Erica Pelamatti, Sophie Grosse-Kathoefer, Hilal Demir, Ute Vollmann, Caroline Ehgartner, Maria Stigler, Benjamin Punz, Litty Johnson, Nicola Hüsing, Barbara Bohle, Lorenz Aglas

“…The ratio of Th2 to Th1 cells was significantly lower in mice sensitized with particle-loaded Bet v 1. Particle-loading of Bet v 1 resulted in a 24-fold higher T cell activation capacity in Bet v 1-specific T cell lines, indicating more efficient uptake and presentation than of soluble Bet v 1. …”
