Human Gene Set: GSE7459_UNTREATED_VS_IL6_TREATED_ACT_CD4_TCELL_UP


Standard name GSE7459_UNTREATED_VS_IL6_TREATED_ACT_CD4_TCELL_UP
Systematic name M462
Brief description Genes up-regulated in CD4 [GeneID=920] T cells: control versus IL6 [GeneID=3569].
Full description or abstract IL-6, a proinflammtory cytokine produced by antigen presenting cells and non-hematopoietic cells in response to external stimuli, acts as an important bridge between the innate and adaptive immune responses. IL-6 together with IL-4 can promote Th2 polarization, while in combination with TGFbeta mediates Th17 differentiation. We examined early changes in gene expression in mouse CD4+ T cells induced by IL-6.
