Asthma is a chronic allergic disorder characterised by chronic inflammation. The balance of type I and type II (CD4+) T helper cells is of critical importance. In asthma there is an overexpression of TH2 cytokines, such as IL-4, IL-5 and IL-13. The genes encoding these cytokines are located together the same chromosomal region, 5q31.1 in humans. Here we confirm a central role for the transcription factors NFAT and GATA3 in the regulation of human IL-4 and IL-13. Chromatin Conformation Capture (3C) demonstrated the formation of specific ligation products containing spliced IL-4 and IL-13 DNA sequences in human TH2 polarised HuT-78 cells. This suggests that co-ordinate expression of TH2 cytokines, under the control of GATA3 and NFAT1 is due to the formation of a chromatin hub by DNA looping.
