Thirty-six patients were included and divided in 2 groups according to their ophthalmological status at M4: 12 with OAEs (OAE+) and 24 without (OAE-).

Ingenuity Pathway Analysis enrichment revealed a psoriasis signature in OAE+ patients, both before and after OAE outcomes. In addition, we noticed the overexpression of several genes involved in keratinocyte differentiation, particularly encoding cornified envelope components. Among the 16 differentially expressed genes selected for real-time RT-PCR validation, 9 were confirmed as upregulated at M4 in OAE+ versus OAE- patients, validating the psoriasis signature, whereas MUC7 was downregulated.

abstract = {γδ T cells producing either interleukin-17A (γδ17 cells) or interferon-γ (γδIFN cells) are generated in the mouse thymus, but the molecular regulators of their peripheral functions are not fully characterized. Here we established an Il17a-GFP:Ifng-YFP double-reporter mouse strain to analyze at unprecedented depth the transcriptomes of pure γδ17 cell versus γδIFN cell populations from peripheral lymph nodes. Within a very high fraction of differentially expressed genes, we identify a panel of 20 new signature genes in steady-state γδ17 cells versus γδIFN cells, which we further validate in models of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis and cerebral malaria, respectively. Among the signature genes, we show that the co-receptor CD6 and the signaling protein Themis promote the activation and proliferation of peripheral γδIFN cells in response to T cell antigen receptor stimulation in vitro and to Plasmodium infection in vivo. This resource can help to understand the distinct activities of effector γδ T cell subsets in pathophysiology.},
