Pathogenic Th17 (pTh17) cells drive inflammation and immune-pathology, but whether pTh17 cells are a Th17 cell subset whose generation is under specific molecular control remains unaddressed. We found that Ras p21 protein activator 3 (RASA3) was highly expressed by pTh17 cells relative to non-pTh17 cells and was required specifically for pTh17 generation in vitro and in vivo. Mice conditionally deficient for Rasa3 in T cells showed less pathology during experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis. Rasa3-deficient T cells acquired a Th2 cell-biased program that dominantly trans-suppressed pTh17 cell generation via interleukin 4 production. The Th2 cell bias of Rasa3-deficient T cells was due to aberrantly elevated transcription factor IRF4 expression. RASA3 promoted proteasome-mediated IRF4 protein degradation by facilitating interaction of IRF4 with E3-ubiquitin ligase Cbl-b. Therefore, a RASA3-IRF4-Cbl-b pathway specifically directs pTh17 cell generation by balancing reciprocal Th17-Th2 cell programs. These findings indicate that a distinct molecular program directs pTh17 cell generation and reveals targets for treating pTh17 cell-related pathology and diseases.

View all literature mentionsTHIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on May 5,2022.Tool that predicts interactions between transcription factors and their regulated genes from binding motifs. Understanding vertebrate development requires unraveling the cis-regulatory architecture of gene regulation. PRISM provides accurate genome-wide computational predictions of transcription factor binding sites for the human and mouse genomes, and integrates the predictions with GREAT to provide functional biological context. Together, accurate computational binding site prediction and GREAT produce for each transcription factor: 1. putative binding sites, 2. putative target genes, 3. putative biological roles of the transcription factor, and 4. putative cis-regulatory elements through which the factor regulates each target in each functional role.
