RNA sequencing revealed T-bet selectively inhibited expression of Th17 cell-related genes, but not other subsets of CD4 + T cells. At day 10 post first immunization with CII, CD4 + T cells were isolated from the draining LNs of T-betfl/fl mice (n = 3) and CD4-Cre T-betfl/fl (cKO) mice (n = 3) and the transcriptome was analyzed. (A) Principal component analysis of RNA-seq data. Each point represents one sample with blue points indicating T-betfl/fl mice and red points cKO mice. (B) Scatter plot. (C) GO analysis of genes differentially expressed in CD4 + T cells from T-betfl/fl and cKO mice. (D) Heatmap of Th cell signature genes.
