Genetic variants alter T-bet binding and gene expression in mucosal inflammatory disease.

Genetic variants alter T-bet binding and gene expression in mucosal inflammatory disease.

The polarization of CD4+ T cells into distinct T helper cell lineages is essential for protective immunity against infection, but aberrant T cell polarization can cause autoimmunity. The transcription factor T-bet (TBX21) specifies the Th1 lineage and represses alternative T cell fates. Genome-wide...
