Gene profile analysis of ILT3-Fc-induced Ts revealed a significant upregulation of Zink finger
proteins, most of which act as transcriptional repressors. Included among these repressors is
BCL6, which was shown to play a critical role in the differentiation of ILT3-Fc–induced T
suppressor (Ts) cells. Genes implicated in cell cycle progression were downregulated.
Genes encoding numerous inflammatory cytokines and chemokines were also
downregulated. In contrast, antiapoptotic genes, as well as members of the WNT and …
