Aire: new tricks from an old dog
Immunology Interest Group Seminar Series
Aire is a transcriptional regulator that controls immunological tolerance. Its primary modus operandi is the induction – specifically in thymic medullary epithelial cells – of a battery of transcripts encoding proteins characteristic of terminally differentiated peripheral cell-types, and consequently negative selection of T cells that recognize these proteins. After briefly reviewing the classical findings, this presentation will focus on more recently discovered facets of Aire function, including positive selection of a perinatal population of regulatory T cells, inhibition of...
