Methylation matters: binding of Ets-1 to the demethylated Foxp3 gene contributes to the stabilization of Foxp3 expression in regulatory T cells

TL;DR: It is proposed that Ets-1 is part of a larger protein complex, which binds to the TSDR only in its demethylated state, thereby restricting stable Foxp3 expression to the Treg lineage.
Journal ArticleDOI

A common haplotype of the IL-31 gene influencing gene expression is associated with nonatopic eczema

TL;DR: This study presents the first genetic risk factor for the nonatopic type of eczema and indicates a primary role of IL-31-induced pruritus in the initiation of this disease, thus proposing a new target for the prevention and therapy of Eczema.
Journal ArticleDOI

Novel inhibitors of the calcineurin/NFATc hub - alternatives to CsA and FK506?

TL;DR: This review summarizes the current knowledge about novel inhibitors, synthesized or identified in the last decades, and focus on their mode of action, specificity, and biological effects.
