The importance of vitamin A for host defense is undeniable and the study of its mechanisms is paramount. Of the estimated 250 million preschool children who are vitamin A deficient (VAD), 10% will die from their increased susceptibility to infectious disease. Vitamin A supplementation was established in the 1980s as one of the most successful interventions in the developing world. Understanding how Vitamin A controls immunity will curb the mortality and morbidity associated with VAD and exploit the immune enhancing capacity of vitamin A to heighten host resistance to infectious disease. The discoveries that retinoic acid (RA) imprints the homing of leukocytes to the gut and enhanced the induction of regulatory T-cells highlighted a potential role for RA in mucosal tolerance. However, emerging data tells of a more profound systemic impact of RA on leukocyte function and commitment. In animal models using genetic manipulation of RA signaling, we learn when and how RA controls T-cell fate. Here we review the role for RA as a critical checkpoint regulator in the differentiation of CD4+ T-cells within the immune system.
