Objective(s): In this study, we aimed to investigate the effects of anti-Fas ribozyme on the apoptosis of T lymphocytes (T cells) in mice model with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Materials and Methods: Male 6-week-old C57BL/6 mice were used to establish the COPD model by exposure to cigarette smoke. The COPD mice were sacrificed for spleen dissection and T cell isolation. T cell...

background: the aim of preliminary study was determined development process status of t-cell population lymphocytes in ukrainian children after 22 years from chernobyl accident for next feasibility study. material and method: 150 participants aged 6 to 16 years are included in three groups: group i (n=65), 30 to 60 km from center accident at zone 3th, group ii (n=65) 60 to 90 km from same locat...

background: determination of the division history of t cells in vitro is helpful in the study of effector mechanisms against infections. technique described here uses the intracellular fluorescent label carboxyfluorescein diacetate succinimidyl ester (cfse) to monitor the proliferation. methods: in a cross sectional study, blood samples were collected from 7 volunteers with history of cutaneous...

Background: CD4+ and CD8+ T cells are the main types of lymphocytes in cell-mediated immunity and play a central role in the induction of efficient immune responses against tumors. The frequencies of T cell subtypes in the peripheral blood and tumor tissues, and draining lymph nodes (dLN) can be considered as useful markers for evaluation of the immune system in cancers. Methods: In this study,...

objective(s): regulatory t cells, including cd4+cd25+fox3+ and cd8+cd28- cells play an important role in regulating the balance between immunity and tolerance. since multiple sclerosis is an inflammatory autoimmune disease, regulatory t cells are considered to be involved in its pathogenesis. in this study, we investigated the circulatory numbers of the two mentioned types of regulatory t cells...
