IRF8-dependent molecular complexes control the Th9 transcriptional program

Interferon regulatory factors IRF regulate lymphoid development, but the specific function of IRF8 in helper T-cell polarization is unclear. Here the authors show that IRF8 forms a complex with IRF4, PU.1 and BATF to modulate the Th9 transcription program and expression of IL-4 and IL-9.
