CD4+ T cells contribute to antitumor immunity and are implicated in the efficacy of cancer immunotherapies. In particular, CD4+ T helper 2 (Th2) cells were recently found to block spontaneous breast carcinogenesis. However, the antitumor potential of Th2 cells in targeting established breast cancer remains uncertain.

: In the world, approximately 1% of the population suffers from chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU), burdening patients' quality of life and challenging clinicians in terms of treatment. Recent scientific evidence has unveiled the potential role of a family of molecules known as "alarmins" in the pathogenesis of CSU. : Papers focusing on the potential pathogenetic role of alarmins in CSU with diagnostic (as biomarkers) and therapeutic implications, in English and published in PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, as well as clinical studies registered in ClinicalTrials.

Type 1 diabetes (T1D) develops spontaneously despite functional antigen presentation machinery in the thymus and a perceptible central tolerance process. We found that intrathymic enrichment with IL-4 fine tunes signaling through the IL-4/IL-13 heteroreceptor (HR) in early thymic progenitors (ETPs), augments negative selection of self-reactive T cells, sustains a diverse T cell repertoire devoid of clones expressing disease-associated T cell receptor (TCR) genes, and protects the nonobese diabetic (NOD) mouse from T1D. Indeed, optimal IL-4 activates STAT transcription factors to program ETP fate decision toward CD11c+CD8α+ dendritic cells (DCs) agile in negative T cell selection and clonal deletion of diabetogenic T cells.
