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

Steven L Reiner. Nat Rev Immunol. 2009 Feb.

Abstract

The mechanisms by which thymocytes commit to becoming CD4+ T cells and how these cells subsequently can adopt various cell fates are becoming important paradigms of developmental programming. Understanding how such CD4+ T-cell diversity accommodates both immune reaction against various challenges and the suppression of undesirable responses is also revealing new therapeutic options.
