Details for anatomical structure: helper T cell Th1

EndoNet ID: ENC00288

To link to the content of EndoNet use the EndoNet ID that is given on the detail pages in the format ENX0000, where X is a place holder for the type of the component (e. g. R for receptor or C for anatomical structure).
As URL for the linking append this ID to the detail page for this type of component.
For an hormone that would be:

http://endonet.bioinf.med.uni-goettingen.de/hormone/ENH00000

It is also possible to use the search of EndoNet to link to the right detail page. The URL should look like

http://endonet.bioinf.med.uni-goettingen.de/search/ENC00000
If the search pattern is unambigious the user is directed to the corresponding detail page.

Synonyms

helper T cell Th1, inducer T cell, helper cell (Th 1), Lymphocytus (Th 1)

General information

Substructures

    Secreted hormones

    • Hormone: IFN-gamma

      • Th1 cells mainly produce interferon-gamma, while Th2 cells selectively secrete IL-4 and IL-5. [1]

      Influenced by:

      • IL-18R
        in helper_T_cell_Th1
        • IL-18 is originally called interferon gamma inducing factor, due to its capacity to induce interferon gamma production in Th1 type cells. [2]
    • Hormone: IL-2

      • T-helper cells (Th1) produce interleukin (IL) -2 and interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma). [3]

      Influenced by:

      • CD28
        in helper_T_cell_Th1
        • CD28 is the primary co-stimulatory receptor for inducing high-level IL-2 production and survival of naive CD4(+) T cells. [4]
    • Hormone: IL-4

      • IL-4-secreting CD4+ T cells are crucial to the development of CD8+ T-cell responses against malaria liver stages. [5]

    Receptors

    • Receptor: CCR4

    • Receptor: CD28

      Influences:

      • IL-2
        • CD28 is the primary co-stimulatory receptor for inducing high-level IL-2 production and survival of naive CD4(+) T cells. [4]
    • Receptor: IL-18R1

    • Receptor: IL-12beta2R

    • Receptor: IL-18Rbeta

    • Receptor: IL-18R

      Influences:

      • IFN-gamma
        • IL-18 is originally called interferon gamma inducing factor, due to its capacity to induce interferon gamma production in Th1 type cells. [2]
    • Receptor: VPAC2

      • Stimulation through the T cell receptors-associated CD3 complex induces the expression of the VPAC2-R mRNA in T-lymphocytes. [6]

      Induced phenotype:

      • cell maturation
        • In CD4+CD8+thymocytes, PACAP prevents glucocorticoid-induced apoptosis by inhibiting Fas ligand expression, suggesting a possible implication in intrathymic T-cell maturation. [7]
