Regulation of T helper function by the microenvironment: role of hypoxia and ATP metabolism

Year: 2014
Type: dissertation
Abstract: In this work, we were interested in studying the effect of two main metabolic factors, hypoxia and extracellular ATP metabolism, on the effector function of T helper subsets. The major oxygen sensor is HIF-1α which is continuously degraded in the presence of oxygen but is stabilized in hypoxia, leading to transcription of genes involved in cellular adaptation to low oxygen level. Our data show that the proportion of IFN-&
