Lymphocyte-specific reconstitution of IL-4Ra was recently established by intercrossing lymphocyte-specific human IL-R4a transgenic mice with mIL-4Ra-deficient mice. Human IL-4Ra may bind to mouse yc resulting in a chimeric receptor specific for human IL-4 but not mouse IL-4. This provides us with and inducible IL-4 system. The aim of this study was to investigate in vitro and in vivo characteristics of our novel hlL-4Ra Tg/mIL-4Ra+/- mouse model. 2014-07-28T14:54:04Z 2014-07-28T14:54:04Z 2006 Doctoral Thesis Doctoral PhD http://hdl.handle.net/11427/3114 eng application/pdf Division of Immunology Faculty of Health Sciences University of Cape Town
