Probiotics Ameliorate Recurrent Th1-Mediated Murine Colitis by Inducing IL-10 and IL-10-Dependent TGF-β-Bearing Regulatory Cells

TL;DR: Probiotic (VSL#3) administration during a remission period ameliorates the severity of recurrent colitis by inducing an immunoregulatory response involving TGF-β-bearing regulatory cells.
Journal Article

Mucosal adjuvant effect of cholera toxin in mice results from induction of T helper 2 (Th2) cells and IL-4.

TL;DR: Results show that CT acts as a mucosal adjuvant to enhance Th2-type responses and in particular, the IL-4 produced results in a characteristic Ab isotype pattern associated with this cytokine.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cholera toxin induces maturation of human dendritic cells and licences them for Th2 priming

TL;DR: It is found that CT induces phenotypic and functional maturation of blood monocyte‐derived DC, and the maturation program induced by CT is unique since CT does not induce but rather inhibits cytokine and chemokine secretion by lipopolysaccharide‐ or CD40 ligand‐activated DC.
