| Research Abstract |
I examined the contribution of Notch or Delta signaling to Th differentiation under various culture conditions. Although there was no effect of Notch/Delta signaling on Th1, Th2 and Treg differetiation, a slight effect of Notch signalingon Th17 differentiation under neutral condition was observed. Since this effect was notdetected in the Th17 culture condition, this result suggests that Th17 differentiation by Notch signaling was something different from that in the usual Th17 culture condition.
