T-bet and GATA3 orchestrate Th1 and Th2 differentiation through lineage-specific targeting of distal regulatory elements

TL;DR: T-bet and GATA3 regulate the CD4+ T cell Th1/Th2 cell fate decision but little is known about the interplay between these factors outside of the murine Ifng and Il4/Il5/Il13 loci.
Journal ArticleDOI

Meta-analysis identifies multiple loci associated with kidney function–related traits in east Asian populations

Yukinori Okada, +414 more
- 01 Aug 2012 - 
TL;DR: A meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies for kidney function–related traits, including 71,149 east Asian individuals from 18 studies in 11 population-, hospital- or family-based cohorts, conducted as part of the Asian Genetic Epidemiology Network (AGEN), identified 17 loci newly associated with kidney function-related traits.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetic loci influencing kidney function and chronic kidney disease

John C. Chambers, +102 more
- 01 May 2010 - 
TL;DR: Using genome-wide association, common variants at 2p12–p13, 6q26, 17q23 and 19q13 associated with serum creatinine associated with chronic kidney disease are identified.
Journal ArticleDOI

C3a modulates IL-1β secretion in human monocytes by regulating ATP efflux and subsequent NLRP3 inflammasome activation

TL;DR: Mechanistically, C3a drives IL-1β production in monocytes by controlling the release of intracellular ATP into the extracellular space via regulation of as-yet unidentified ATP-releasing channels in an extacellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2-dependent fashion, which defines a novel function for complement in inflammasome activation in monocyte activation.
