Allergic asthma that is caused by inhalation of house dust mites (HDMs) is mainly mediated by Th2 cells. Recently, the roles of Sox (SRY-related high-mobility-group (HMG)-box) family members in various immune responses have been investigated. However, the roles of Sox12, a member of the SoxC group, in Th2 cell differentiation and allergic airway inflammation, remain unknown. We showed that Sox12 mRNA was significantly increased during Th2 cell differentiation. In vivo, HDM-induced eosinophil infiltration into the lung and Th2 cell differentiation were exacerbated in Sox12^−/− mice compared with those in control Sox12^+/− mice. In vitro, Sox12^−/− CD4⁺ T cells that were cultured under Th2 conditions had increased production of Th2 cytokines and GATA3 protein compared with those of control Sox12^+/− CD4⁺ T cells. Importantly, forced expression of Sox12 decreased the protein levels of GATA3 in CD4⁺ T cells under Th2 conditions without affecting mRNA expression. Furthermore, Sox12 induced degradation of GATA3 through the proteasome pathway in CD4⁺ T cells. Consistently, Sox12 enhanced ubiquitination of GATA3, which was mediated by the E3 ligase Fbw7. Finally, we found that Fbw7 knockdown partly abrogated Sox12-mediated GATA3 suppression in CD4⁺ T cells. Taken together, these results suggest that Sox12 suppresses Th2 cell differentiation by accelerating Fbw7-mediated GATA3 degradation, and attenuates HDM-induced allergic inflammation.
