Abstract:
:Among a population of uniformly differentiated TH(2) cells, only a portion express IL-4 upon stimulation and those that do often express the product of only a single allele. We review the evidence for the basis of IL-4 monoallelism and argue that it depends upon probabilistic expression of the Il4 gene. Further, we argue that probabilistic expression may provide a powerful mechanism through which certain key functions of IL-4, such as immunoglobulin class switching and determination of macrophage phenotype, may be efficiently regulated.
