CD25(+)CD8(+), CLA(+)CD4(+), CD11a(+) CD4(+), and CD11a(+) CD8(+) T cell counts are elevated in the blood of Brazilian patients with chronic plaque psoriasis.
Psoriasis is a recurrent, chronic inflammatory disorder that mainly affects the skin and joints1. In view of the scarcity of studies on peripheral lymphocyte subpopulations in Brazilian psoriasis patients, we performed cytofluorometric analysis of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) in psoriatic patients and healthy controls in order to characterize the lymphocyte subpopulations and certa...
متن کاملCD45RA(bright)/CD11a(bright) CD8+ T cells: effector T cells.
An important aspect of peripheral T cell development is the differentiation from naive into memory cells. To distinguish naive from memory cells, CD45RA and CD11a are commonly used: CD45RA+ or CD11a(dim) T cells are regarded as naive, while CD45RA- or CD11a(bright) T cells are thought to be of memory type. There is, however, a CD8+ T cell subset which is CD45RA+ and at the same time CD11a(brigh...
متن کاملEssential role of CD11a in CD8+ T-cell accumulation and activation in adipose tissue.
OBJECTIVE T cells, particularly CD8(+) T cells, are major participants in obesity-linked adipose tissue (AT) inflammation. We examined the mechanisms of CD8(+) T-cell accumulation and activation in AT and the role of CD11a, a β2 integrin. APPROACH AND RESULTS CD8(+) T cells in AT of obese mice showed activated phenotypes with increased proliferation and interferon-γ expression. In vitro, CD8(...
متن کاملBANA-Positive Plaque Samples Are Associated with Oral Hygiene Practices and Not CD4+ T Cell Counts in HIV-Positive Patients
Background. The "red complex" microorganisms, namely, Porphyromonas gingivalis, Treponema denticola, and Tannerella forsythia are considered as potential pathogens causing HIV-associated periodontal diseases. Moreover, it has been recognized that an association exists between CD4+ T cell counts and periodontal disease progression. Objective. To establish whether CD4+ T cell counts or oral hygie...
متن کاملThe role of Staphylococcus superantigens in chronic plaque type psoriasis
Background: T cell activation is discussed as an important factor in the pathogenesis of psoriasis. Recently, a lot of attention has been paid to the role of superantigens in T cell activation in the pathogenesis of psoriasis. In this study, the role of staphylococcal superantigens in the pathogenesis of psoriasis with identification of staphylococcal toxin levels in the skin lesions of p...
