The polarized response of T helper-2 (Th2) lymphocytes to an allergen is considered to be the main cause of the pathogenesis of asthma. In this study, we asked a question whether M. bovis BCG mycobacteria which are known for the preferential stimulation of T helper-1 (Th1) immunity, diminish the effector functions of Th2 cells from allergic patients upon stimulation with a common house dust mit...
Differentiated T helper 1 (Th1) and T helper 2 (Th2) T-cells show striking differences in their patterns of cytokine expression. This process is initiated by stimulation with antigen and the cytokines IL-12 and IL-4, respectively, and requires antigen-induced transcription factors such as NFAT and cytokine-induced transcription factors such as STAT4, induced by IL-12, and STAT6, induced by IL-4...
ent pathogens; these mechanisms are mainly secondary to the activation of B lymphocytes and of humoral immunity, or to the activation of cell-mediated immunity. Activation of B lymphocytes, and production of antibodies has been shown to be more useful in defense against cell-free agents and toxins (e.g., pneumococcus; tetanus toxins). In contrast, triggering of cell-mediated immunity appears to...
Naive CD4+ T helper cells (Th) differentiate into one of two well-defined cell types during immune responses. Mature Th1 and Th2 cells regulate the type of response as a consequence of the unique cytokines that they secrete. CD4 serves a prominent role in potentiating antigen recognition by helper T cells. We have examined the role of CD4 in peripheral T cell differentiation by studying helper ...
BACKGROUND Inhibition of G-protein βγ (Gβγ) signaling was found previously to enhance T cell receptor (TCR)-stimulated increases in interleukin 2 (IL-2) mRNA in CD4(+) T helper cells, suggesting that Gβγ might be a useful drug target for treating autoimmune diseases, as low dose IL-2 therapy can suppress autoimmune responses. Because IL-2 may counteract autoimmunity in part by shifting CD4(+) T...
Production of antibody to hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg); i.e., anti-HBe antibody,) in HBeAg-transgenic mice is believed to be mediated by T-helper 2 (Th2) cells. Injection of an HBeAg-specific Th2 clone into HBeAg-transgenic H-2k mice induced anti-HBe antibody production, confirming the function of Th2 cells in this model system.
The mechanistic study of glaucoma pathogenesis has shifted to seeking to understand the effects of immune responses on retinal ganglion cell damage and protection. Cytokines are the hormonal factors that mediate most of the biological effects in both the immune and nonimmune systems. CD4-expressing T helper cells are a major source of cytokine production and regulation. Type 1 helper T (Th1) ce...
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Kawasaki disease is an acute systemic vasculitis of which pathogenesis suspected is caused by immune dysregulation. The goal of this study is to evaluate the activation pattern of T helper cell type 1 (Th1) and T helper cell type 2 (Th2) in patients with Kawasaki disease. SUBJECTS AND METHODS Prospective study of 60 patients (male 36, female 24) with diagnosis of Kaw...
T-cell clones generated from both CD4+CD25+ and CD8+CD25+ human thymocytes were assessed for their ability to suppress the proliferative response to allogeneic stimulation of type 1 T-helper (Th1) or type 2 T-helper (Th2) clones derived from autologous CD4+CD25- thymocytes. Both CD4+ and CD8+ T-regulatory (Treg) cells completely suppressed the proliferation of Th1 clones but exhibited significa...
The immune suppression of sentinel lymph node (SN) is directly influenced by primary tumors. It has been reported that the T-helper type 1 (Th1) to T-helper type 2 (Th2) ratio or T-cytotoxic type 1 (Tc1) to T-cytotoxic type 2 (Tc2) ratio of lymph node lymphocytes could be used to evaluate direct immunological circumstances. We attempted to evaluate the Th1 to Th2 cell and Tc1 to Tc2 cell balanc...
