Intrathymic programming of effector fates in three molecularly distinct γδ T cell subtypes

TL;DR: A high-resolution transcriptome analysis of all emergent γδ thymocyte subsets segregated on the basis of use of the TCR γ-chain or δ-chain indicated the existence of three separate subtypes of γ δ effector cells in the thymus, each distinguished by unique transcription-factor modules that program effector function.
Journal ArticleDOI

Regulation of γδ Versus αß T Lymphocyte Differentiation by the Transcription Factor SOX13

TL;DR: Using Sox13 transgenic mice, it is shown that this transcription factor promotes γδ T cell development while opposing αβ T cell differentiation, revealing a dominant pathway regulating the developmental fate of these two lineages of T lymphocytes.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Network of High-Mobility Group Box Transcription Factors Programs Innate interleukin-17 Production

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that Tγδ17 cells are programmed by a gene regulatory network consisting of a quartet of high-mobility group (HMG) box transcription factors,SOX4, SOX13, TCF 1, and LEF1, and not by conventional TCR signaling.
Journal ArticleDOI

TRIM13 Is a Negative Regulator of MDA5-Mediated Type I Interferon Production

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that expression of the gene tripartite motif 13 (Trim13) is upregulated in response to inducers of type I IFN and that TRIM13 interacts with both MDA5 and RIG-I in vitro, which places it at a key junction within the viral response pathway.
