AB The concept that T cells are subdivided into T helper 1 (Th1) and Th2
subsets was recently extended to suggest that Th1 cells contribute to
the pathogenesis of several organ-specific autoimmune diseases, whereas
Th2 cells inhibit disease development. Here, Sylvie Trembleau and
colleagues examine the role of interleukin 12 (IL-12), a key cytokine
guiding the development of Th1 cells, in the induction of autoimmune
diseases, and discuss potential immunointervention strategies based on
administration of IL-12 antagonists.
