| Research Abstract |
We performed a transcriptome analysis of Th1, Th2 and Th17 cells differentiated in vitro and discovered that transcription factor c-Maf is strongly induced in the course of Th17 differentiation. We also analyzed c-Maf transgenic mice and unexpectedly found that most Th cells had memory phenotype. It is suggested that c-Maf plays an important role not only in Th17 but also in memory Th differentiation.
