Beauty found in regulating the body's immune system gene regulator

United States latest study found that a lot of life functions vital to promoting gene regulator the human immune system T lymphocytes.

This discovery will contribute to the research and development for the treatment of AIDS, autoimmune diseases and allergies, and other diseases.

This research was supported by the United States California Institute of technology and Oregon State University researchers, research results published in the July 2, published by the United States Science (Science) magazine.

The study report notes that a gene called Ctip2 regulator is a way to control gene expression or gene code open and silence of the protein.

It was by the Oregon State University researchers discovered in the year 2000, the experts known it is one of the main gene expression, control the tooth conditioner, enamel, brain cells, skin and t-cell and organ tissue formation.

Participation in the study of Oregon State University School of medicine Dean, Assistant Professor Mark · Reid pointed out: "animal experiments show that features various life Ctip2 plays a crucial role, but on the t-lymphocyte Ctip2 and early formation of the latest discovery will likely lead to immunology and medical home of great interest.

”

Reid said that Ctip2 seems to be many different types of cell development and variation of a very senior regulator.

Based on this discovery, scientists might be developed to control Ctip2 drug to treat certain diseases of the immune system.
