The Interplay Between T-bet and Bcl-6 in T Helper Cell Differentiation
(VTC)

T helper cells are critical to coordinate the immune response. Specialized T helper cell populations arise from a common naive CD4+ T cell progenitor and this is dependent upon a group of lineage-specifying transcription factors. In this talk, Dr. Oestreich will discuss how the interaction between two such factors, T-bet and Bcl-6, regulates flexibility between T helper cell phenotypes.
