Shows that the expression of T-bet, a Th1 tanscript on factor, is reduced in T cells from the airway of patients with asthma, and demonstrates that targeted deletion of T-bet, in the absence of an induced inflammation response, results in spontaneous development of airway changes similar to that created by allergen exposure in sensitized mice, suggesting that T-bet might be a target for the development of antiasthma drugs.

This study uses retroviral transduct on techniques and T-bet-deficient mice to examine the role of T-bet in controlling the mucusal cytokine balance and clinical disease in chronic intestinal inflammation.
