A great deal of effort by numerous investigators has gone into understanding the regulation of Th1 and Th2 development. Much of the effort has focused on trying to define the specific signals that determine which CD4 T cells may develop upon primary antigen activation. In the end, it appears that numerous parameters of T-cell activation can impact on the outcome of the overall balance of Th1/Th2 phenotype development. Clearly however, recent studies have defined a hierarchy among these parameters, with some acting directly at the level of the T cell to deliver the final signals inducing Th1 or Th2 differentiation, and others less proximal acting on APCs or other innate immune cells to modify levels of certain cytokines or costimulators. Among these various parameters are the APC used for T-cell priming [1], the dose of antigen used for T-cell activation [2–5], the structure of the antigen and particularly the affinity for the MHC and TCR [4, 6], the level of co-stimulation present during T-cell priming [7–9], the genetic background of the cells [10, 11], the presence or absence of certain pathogen-derived materials and the cytokines present in the priming milieu [12–28]. Changing any one of these parameters can alter the balance between Th1 and Th2 development. It is clear that IL-
