The phagocytosis of apoptotic cells, also called efferocytosis, is a dynamic process critical for tissue homeostasis after injury. We and other groups previously shown that phagocytosis of apoptotic cells promotes the synthesis of anti-inflammatory mediators such as PGE2, TGF-² and IL-10 that may result in the suppression of host defense against microorganisms. However, an elegant study u…
The newest Th cell subset to be proposed is the IL-9 secreting Th9 subset. IL-9 has long been implicated as a contributor to the inflammation observed during an allergic response. To further support this finding Dr. Kaplan's lab has demonstrated that blocking IL-9 activity as allergic inflammation develops decreases pulmonary infiltration. The recent emergence of Th9 cells as a major sour…
