A Focus and Poster on CD4+ T-cell diversity

This Focus issue, produced with support from Schering-Plough, covers the latest research on how the differentiation of TH-cell subsets and regulatory T cells is controlled.

The Focus content is freely available for 6 months at www.nature.com/nri/focus/cd4t-celldiversity

The accompanying poster, produced with support from UCB, shows the signalling pathways that mediate the differentiation, survival, function and plasticity of CD4+ T cells.

Decision making during the conception and career of CD4+ T cells

Epigenetic control of FOXP3 expression: the key to a stable regulatory T-cell lineage?
Jochen Huehn, Julia K. Polansky & Alf Hamann
p83 | doi:10.1038/nri2474
Regulatory T (TReg) cells are crucial for immune homeostasis, and manipulation of their suppressive functions is a possible avenue for immunotherapy. Here, the authors discuss recent advances in our understanding of how the expression of forkhead box P3 (FOXP3), a TReg-cell-specifying transcription factor, is controlled at the molecular level.

Epigenetic control of T-helper-cell differentiation
Christopher B. Wilson, Emily Rowell & Masayuki Sekimata
p91 | doi:10.1038/nri2487
Numerous lineage-specific transcription factors have been linked with T-helper-cell subset specification. But, as discussed here, epigenetic modifications at the gene regulatory elements where these factors bind can also contribute to the regulation of T-helper-cell differentiation and function.

RUNX proteins in transcription factor networks that regulate T-cell lineage choice
Amélie Collins, Dan R. Littman & Ichiro Taniuchi
p106 | doi:10.1038/nri2489
In this Review, the authors discuss how RUNX (runt-related transcription factor) proteins and other key transcription factors work together to direct T-cell lineage choice and CD4+ T-cell differentiation.

The different faces of Notch in T-helper-cell differentiation
Derk Amsen, Andrey Antov & Richard A. Flavell
p116 | doi:10.1038/nri2488
Recent research indicates that the Notch signalling pathway is important for directing T helper (TH)-cell differentiation. In this Review, the authors discuss contrasting results showing that Notch can have a role in both TH1- and TH2-cell differentiation, and highlight how this information might help to better understand the pathology of T-cell-mediated diseases.

GATA3 and the T-cell lineage: essential functions before and after T-helper-2-cell differentiation
I-Cheng Ho, Tzong-Shyuan Tai & Sung-Yun Pai
p125 | doi:10.1038/nri2476
The transcription factor GATA-binding protein 3 (GATA3) is best known as a master regulator of T-helper-2-cell differentiation. However, as part of a network of other transcription factors, GATA3 is also important in determining cell fate at earlier stages of haematopoiesis and lymphoid-cell development.

Regulation of T-helper-cell lineage development by osteopontin: the inside story
Harvey Cantor & Mari L. Shinohara
p137 | doi:10.1038/nri2460
Here, Harvey Cantor and Mari Shinohara propose that the secreted and intracellular isoforms of osteopontin differentially regulate the development of distinct T-helper-cell subsets and, consequently, adaptive immune responses to foreign and self antigens.
