Abstract

The development of asthma and other atopic diseases is influenced by cytokines produced by Th2 effector T cells. How effector T cell responses are regulated once these cell populations are established remains unclear. The recently described T cell and airway phenotype regulator locus, containing the T cell, Ig domain, mucin domain (TIM) genes, is genetically associated with Th2 cytokine production and Th2-dependent immune responses. In this study, we report the phenotype of the TIM-2 gene-deficient mouse, and demonstrate exacerbated lung inflammation in an airway atopic response model. Immune responses in the TIM-2-deficient mouse reveal disregulated expression of Th2 cytokines, and adoptive transfer experiments show that the T cell compartment is responsible for the heightened inflammatory phenotype. These studies show that TIM-2 is a novel and critical regulator of effector T cell activity.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • An IRE is located at +51 to +94 from the 5′ cap in the 5′-UTR of Alzheimer amyloid precursor protein.

    “An IRE was recently identified at +51 to +94 from the 5′ cap in the 5′-UTR of Alzheimer amyloid precursor protein (260), a critical mediator of the formation of plaques involved in the pathogenesis of AD.”
  • This IRE is functional, as demonstrated by specific binding to IRP that is destroyed by functional mutation, and decreased translation in response to intracellular iron chelation.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
