Tim-3 (T cell immunoglobulin, mucin domain)-3 is a membrane protein expressed at late stages of interferon-gamma secreting CD4+ T helper type 1 (Th1) cell differentiation and constitutively on dendritic cells (DCs). Ligation of Tim-3 on Th1 cells terminates Th1 immune responses. In addition, Tim-3 plays a role in tolerance induction, though the mechanism by which this is accomplished has yet to be elucidated. While it is clear that Tim-3 plays an important role in the immune system, little is known regarding the molecular pathways that regulate Tim-3 expression. Here we have examined the role of Th1-associated transcription factors in regulating Tim-3 expression. Our experiments reveal that Tim-3 expression is regulated by the Th1-specific transcription factor T-bet. This introduces a novel paradigm into the generation of a Th1 response, whereby a transcription factor responsible for effector Th1 cell differentiation also increases the expression of a specific counter-regulatory molecule to ensure appropriate termination of pro-inflammatory Th1 immune responses.
