Abstract: The epigenetic regulation, such as genomic methylation, chromatin remodeling or histone deacetylation, has great influence on the maturation of CD4+T helper cells into Th1 phenotype or Th2 phenotype. In this paper, epigenetic regulation of IFN-g and IL-4/IL-13 loci in Th1/Th2 cells has been reviewed in some detail. It will help to understand the possible role of the correlated transcription factors, enzymes or multiprotein complex in this epigenetic regulation.
