Results of a six-hour stimulation of PBMCs with PMA and ionomycin in the presence of brefeldin A, followed by fixation, permeabilization and staining for intracellular cytokines. Data shown represent mean of 3 independent experiments for GATA3+/− patients; included for comparison are age and sex matched healthy controls.

CD4+ naïve T cells were subject to Th0 (anti-CD3/CD28 and IL-2) or Th2 (anti-CD3/CD28, IL-2, IL-4, anti-IFN-γ, anti-IL-10) skewing conditions prior to staining for expression of TBET and GATA3. n=3–5 independent experiments. (a) Geometric mean fluorescent intensity (MFI) of GATA3 under Th0 and Th2 conditions (representative data). (b) Fold increase of GATA3 MFI under Th2 conditions compared to Th0 conditions.
