lüll Common themes emerge in the transcriptional control of T helper and developmental cell fate decisions regulated by the T-box, GATA and ROR families Miller SA; Weinmann ASImmunology 2009[Mar]; 126 (3): 306-15Cellular differentiation requires the precise action of lineage-determining transcription factors. In the immune system, CD4(+) T helper cells differentiate into at least three distinct effector lineages, T helper type 1 (Th1), Th2 and Th17, with the fate of the cell at least in part determined by the transcription factors T-box expressed in T cells (T-bet), GATA-3 and retinoid-related orphan receptor gammat (RORgammat), respectively. Importantly, these transcription factors are members of larger families that are required for numerous developmental transitions from early embryogenesis into adulthood. Mutations in members of these transcription factor families are associated with a number of human genetic diseases due to a failure in completing lineage-specification events when the factor is dysregulated. Mechanistically, there are both common and distinct functional activities that are utilized by T-box, GATA and ROR family members to globally alter the cellular gene expression profiles at specific cell fate decision checkpoints. Therefore, understanding the molecular events that contribute to the ability of T-bet, GATA-3 and RORgammat to define T helper cell lineages can provide valuable information relevant to the establishment of other developmental systems and, conversely, information from diverse developmental systems may provide unexpected insights into the molecular mechanisms utilized in T helper cell differentiation.|Cell Differentiation/genetics/immunology[MESH]|GATA Transcription Factors/immunology[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Nuclear Receptor Subfamily 1, Group F, Member 3[MESH]|Protein Binding/genetics[MESH]|Receptors, Retinoic Acid/immunology[MESH]|Receptors, Thyroid Hormone/immunology[MESH]|T-Box Domain Proteins/immunology[MESH]|T-Lymphocytes, Helper-Inducer/*cytology/metabolism[MESH]|Transcription Factors/*immunology[MESH]|Transcription, Genetic/immunology[MESH] |
