T cells that produce the cytokine IL-22 (Th22 cells) are found in infectious and inflammatory lung disease. However, the role of Th22 cells in promoting or preventing disease remains largely unknown. We have discovered how to grow Th22 cells and have generated a unique strain of IL-22 reporter mice, which will allow us to identify their role in infectious and inflammatory diseases. Our investigations will provide new insights into therapeutic approaches for these diseases of the lung.

在感染性和炎症性肺部疾病中发现产生细胞因子IL-22（Th22细胞）的T细胞。然而，Th22细胞在促进或预防疾病中的作用仍然很大未知。我们已经发现了如何种植Th22细胞，并产生了独特的IL-22记者小鼠菌株，这将使我们能够确定它们在传染病和炎症性疾病中的作用。我们的调查将为这些肺部疾病的治疗方法提供新的见解。
