A Distinct Function of Regulatory T Cells in Tissue Protection

TL;DR: The results suggest that, during infectious lung injury, Treg cells have a major direct and non-redundant role in tissue repair and maintenance-distinct from their role in suppression of immune responses and inflammation-and that these two essential Treg cell functions are invoked by separable cues.
Journal ArticleDOI

Roles of epithelial cell-derived periostin in TGF-β activation, collagen production, and collagen gel elasticity in asthma

TL;DR: Epithelial cell-derived periostin in asthma has roles in TGF-β activation and collagen gel elasticity in asthma and alters collagen fibrillogenesis or cross-linking and leads to stiffening of the matrix.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inflammatory memory sensitizes skin epithelial stem cells to tissue damage

TL;DR: A prolonged memory to acute inflammation is reported that enables mouse EpSCs to hasten barrier restoration after subsequent tissue damage, and this functional adaptation does not require skin-resident macrophages or T cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Measures of gene expression in sputum cells can identify TH2-high and TH2-low subtypes of asthma

TL;DR: In this paper, gene profiling in sputum cells was used to identify T H 2-high and T h 2-low subtypes of asthma using the 3-gene signature of periostin, CLCA1, and SERPINB2 in airway epithelial brushings.
Journal ArticleDOI

Stem Cell Lineage Infidelity Drives Wound Repair and Cancer

TL;DR: It is found that breakdown of stem cell lineage confinement-granting privileges associated with both fates-is not only hallmark but also functional in cancer development and shows that lineage plasticity is critical in wound repair, where it operates transiently to redirect fates.
