When introduced into IRF4‐deficient CD4+ or CD8+ T cells, more type 17 differentiation was found compared to WT IRF4. Interestingly, Th9 differentiation and Th2‐linked IL‐13 production were much less altered.These studies were funded by the DFG (grant LO 396/8-1 to M.L.), the DZIF (M.L. and O.P.),Rh ̈on-Klinikum A.G, and Kempkes Stiftung(to M.B.application/pdfen-AU© 2018 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
