An asthma-associated IL4R variant exacerbates airway inflammation by promoting conversion of regulatory T cells to T(H)17-like cells

Mechanisms by which regulatory T (T(reg)) cells fail to control inflammation in asthma remain poorly understood. We show that a severe asthma-associated polymorphism in the interleukin-4 receptor alpha chain (IL4RA R576) promotes conversion of induced T(reg) (iT(reg)) cells towards a T helper 17 (T(...
