T Cell-Intrinsic Receptor Interacting Protein 2 Regulates Pathogenic T Helper 17 Cell Differentiation (Immunity)

RIP2 is the key adaptor molecule for NOD1- and NOD2-mediated intracellular signaling to sense pathogens and cell activation in myeloid cells. Shimada, Porritt, and colleagues demonstrate a previously unappreciated role for RIP2 in Th17 cell regulation and differentiation in a T cell-intrinsic manner.
