Th1, Th2, Tc1 and Tc2 cells of patients with otolaryngological diseases
Cytokines are important regulatory mediators secreted by T cells and other immunoactive cells. Based on the cytokine synthesis patterns, CD4 T cells can often be classified into at least two populations with different immune regulatory functions. The Th1 cells, producing interleukin (IL)-2 and interferon (IFN)γ , are often associated with cell-mediated immune responses such as delayed type hype...
متن کاملUltraviolet-A1 phototherapy modulates Th1/Th2 and Tc1/Tc2 balance in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus.
OBJECTIVE Ultraviolet-A1 (UVA1) phototherapy is effective for a variety of dermatological diseases. We examined the effectiveness and reliability of low-dose UVA1 phototherapy (60 kJ/m2/treatment) in patients suffering from systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). We studied the changes in immunological parameters. METHODS The patients received a 9-week course of phototherapy according to the foll...
متن کاملInflammatory markers in active pulmonary tuberculosis: association with Th1/Th2 and Tc1/Tc2 balance.
OBJECTIVE Few inflammatory markers closely reflect the activity of tuberculosis and only a few surrogate markers are available. The purpose of this study was to clarify the usefulness of measuring the erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), C-reactive protein (CRP), and serum amyloid A (SAA), and the association between these markers and T-cell profiles. METHODS One hundred one patients with ac...
متن کاملChanges in the Ratio of Tc1/Tc2 and Th1/Th2 Cells but Not in Subtypes of NK-Cells in Preeclampsia
It has been suggested that natural killer (NK) cell activity and Th1 immunity may be involved in the pathogenesis of preeclampsia. This study aimed to investigate the immunophenotypes of NK cells and type 1/type 2 immunity in both decidua and maternal peripheral blood between normal (n=11) and preeclamptic pregnant women (n=20) by flow cytometry. The results showed that no significant differenc...
متن کاملComparison of Th1 and Th2 Responses in Non-Healing and Healing Patients with Cutaneous Leishmaniasis
Background: Cutaneous leishmaniasis is an endemic disease in many regions of Iran, including the city of Mashhad. In recent years, some cases have not responded to Glucantime, the usual treatment for this disease. The cellular immune response caused by T-helper type 1 (Th1) cells has an important role in protection against leishmaniasis, and activation of the T-helper type 2 (Th2) response caus...
