A study of T CD4, CD8 and B lymphocytes in narcoleptic patients.
UNLABELLED Narcolepsy is characterized by excessive daytime sleep and cataplexy. Little is known about the possible difference in pathophysiology between patients with or without cataplexy. OBJECTIVE To quantify T CD4, T CD8 and B lymphocytes in subgroups of patients with narcolepsy and the presence or absence of the HLA-DQB1*0602 allele between groups. METHOD Our study was prospective and ...
متن کاملIrradiated β-glucan enhances immune response to bacterial infection through CD4 and CD8 T-lymphocytes
Background: &beta-glucans are glucose polymers with a variety of stimulatory effects on the immune system. The objective of this study was to evaluate the immune-enhancing activities of low molecular weight gamma irradiated &beta-glucan (I&beta-g) extracted from Pleurotus ostreatus in response to Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection in rats. Materials and Methods: &beta-glucan (&beta-g) powder was ...
متن کاملanalysis of t cell receptor vβ diversity in peripheral cd4+ and cd8+ t lymphocytes obtained from patients with chronic severe hepatitis b
conclusions the cd4+ and cd8+ tcr vβ gene families undergo clonal expansion in cshb patients, and cd8+ t cells play a major role in the pathogenesis of cshb. moreover, the conserved motifs and limited use of joining region genes observed in the cshb patients of this cohort indicated that similar antigenic epitopes are recognized. results the number of oligoclonal or monoclonal expansion tcr vβ ...
متن کاملWhole blood capcellia CD4/CD8 immunoassay for enumeration of CD4+ and CD8+ peripheral T lymphocytes.
We evaluated the Whole Blood Capcellia(R) CD4/CD8, an immunoenzymatic method that provides absolute counts of CD4+ and CD8+ T cells in peripheral blood. The assay is based on the separation of T cells by use of an anti-CD2 magnetic bead suspension, followed by reaction of the CD4 or CD8 molecules with the corresponding monoclonal antibody coupled to peroxidase. CD4-positive monocytes were exclu...
متن کاملNumerical status of CD4+CD25+FoxP3+ and CD8+CD28- regulatory T cells in multiple sclerosis
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...
