Constitutively altered frequencies of circulating follicullar helper T cell counterparts and their subsets in rheumatoid arthritis
INTRODUCTION Circulating CD4 T cells expressing CXCR5, ICOS and/or PD-1 are counterparts of follicular helper T cells (Tfh). There are three subpopulations of circulating Tfh (cTfh): CXCR5 + CXCR3 + CCR6- (Tfh-Th1), CXCR5 + CXCR3-CCR6- (Tfh-Th2) and CXCR5 + CXCR3-CCR6+ (Tfh-Th17). Our objective was to study the B cell helping capacity of cTfh subsets, and examine their frequency in Rheumatoid A...
متن کاملComprehensive Evaluation of Different T-Helper Cell Subsets Differentiation and Function in Rheumatoid Arthritis
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is the most common autoimmune disorder. Loss of Th1/Th2 and Th17/Treg balance has been reported in several inflammatory autoimmune diseases. This study was to investigate Th1, Th2, Th17, and Treg differentiation and related cytokines in RA patients. The frequencies of Th1, Th2, Th17, and Treg cells in peripheral blood of RA patients (n = 76) and healthy controls (n = 1...
متن کاملThe Interplay Between Monocytes/Macrophages and CD4+ T Cell Subsets in Rheumatoid Arthritis
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by inflammation of the synovial lining (synovitis). The inflammation in the RA joint is associated with and driven by immune cell infiltration, synovial hyperproliferation, and excessive production of proinflammatory mediators, such as tumor necrosis factor α (TNFα), interferon γ (IFNγ), interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, and IL-...
متن کاملRegulatory T cell defects in rheumatoid arthritis.
Regulatory T (Treg) cells have emerged as a distinct subset of lymphocytes that are responsible for limiting immune responses and avoiding pathologic autoimmunity. Evidence is accumulating that defects in Treg function are important in immune-mediated diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA). We discuss herein the biology of Treg cells and emphasize what is known about Treg dysfunction in RA.
متن کاملT Cell Migration in Rheumatoid Arthritis
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disease characterized by chronic inflammation in joints, associated with synovial hyperplasia and with bone and cartilage destruction. Although the primacy of T cell-related events early in the disease continues to be debated, there is strong evidence that autoantigen recognition by specific T cells is crucial to the pathophysiology of rheumatoid synov...
