View SamplesAllergic asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease dominated by a CD4+ T helper 2 (Th2) cell signature. The immune response amplifies in self-enforcing loops, promoting Th2-driven cellular immunity and leaving the host unable to terminate inflammation. Posttranscriptional mechanisms, including miRNAs, are pivotal in maintaining immune-homeostasis. Since an altered expression of various miRNAs has been associated with T cell-driven diseases, including asthma, we hypothesized that miRNAs control mechanisms ensuring Th2 stability and maintenance in the lung. We isolated murine CD4+ Th2 cells from allergic inflamed lungs and profiled gene and microRNA expression.
