Molecular regulation of human interleukin 2 and T-cell function by interleukin 4.
Distinct functional T-cell subsets, differing in the patterns of lymphokines produced, regulate cell-mediated and humoral immune responses. The two major types and their principal products, interleukin 4 and interferon gamma (IL-4 and IFN-gamma), are reciprocally negatively interactive. To analyze the molecular mechanism of IL-4-mediated suppression of cell-mediated immunity we studied its effe...
متن کاملProfile of interleukin-2 production in human mononuclear cells and T-cell lines
Introduction: Interleukin-2 (IL-2) as a T helper type 1 (Th1) cytokine has an important role Background and Objective: Interleukin-2 (IL-2) as a T helper type 1 (Th1) cytokine has an important role in activation, growth and differentiation of several immune cells. Moreover IL-2 is known as a pro-inflammatory and anti-tumoral cytokine. In addition deysregulation of IL-2 in some diseases such as ...
متن کاملRegulation by interleukin-10 and interleukin-4 of cyclooxygenase-2 expression in human neutrophils.
Neutrophils are important effector cells of acute inflammation because of their potential capacity to synthesize various proinflammatory mediators, and inhibition of their production is expected to result in anti-inflammatory effects. In this study, we investigate the effects of the anti-inflammatory cytokines, interleukin-10 (IL-10) and IL-4, on prostanoid synthesis in human neutrophils. Neutr...
متن کاملTranscriptional and posttranscriptional regulation of the interleukin-4 and interleukin-3 genes in human T cells.
Human T cells were studied with regard to the regulation of interleukin-4 (IL-4) and IL-3 gene expression. IL-4 and IL-3 mRNA were undetectable in unstimulated T cells. On activation with the lectin concanavalin A (Con A), both IL-4 and IL-3 mRNA were expressed. Accumulation of IL-4 mRNA peaked after 6 to 12 hours, whereas IL-3 mRNA levels peaked after 3 to 6 hours of stimulation with Con A. Nu...
متن کاملEffect of Vitamin D treatment on Interleukin-2 and Interleukin-4 Genes expression in Multiple Sclerosis
Introduction: Multiple sclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disease of central nervous system. The etiology of MS is slightly known, but genetic and environmental factors are reported. Vitamin D regulates gene expression and affects target cell functions. The aim of this study was to investigate the expression variation of IL-2 and IL-4 genes under vitamin D supplementation in patients with mult...
