Immunoexpression of the CD30 ligand/CD30 and IL-6/IL-6R signals in thyroid autoimmune diseases.
To elucidate the role of Th2 cytokines in autoimmune thyroid diseases, we have studied by immunohistochemistry the expression of two Th2 ligand/receptor systems (CD30-L/CD30 and IL-6/IL-6R) in goitrous Graves' disease (GD) and Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT). A total number of 50 nodular goiters (NG), including 10 GD showing a lymphoid aggregate grade I, 30 HT 8 of which had a lymphoid aggregate o...
متن کاملInterleukin (IL)-6 Directs the Differentiation of IL-4–producing CD4+ T Cells
Interleukin (IL)-4 is the most potent factor that causes naive CD4+ T cells to differentiate to the T helper cell (Th) 2 phenotype, while IL-12 and interferon gamma trigger the differentiation of Th1 cells. However, the source of the initial polarizing IL-4 remains unclear. Here, we show that IL-6, probably secreted by antigen-presenting cells, is able to polarize naive CD4+ T cells to effector...
متن کاملOX40 costimulation enhances interleukin-4 (IL-4) expression at priming and promotes the differentiation of naive human CD4(+) T cells into high IL-4-producing effectors.
Th2 cell development is critically dependent on the presence of interleukin-4 (IL-4) at priming. The cellular origin and the mechanisms regulating this early production of IL-4 at the site of naive T-cell priming are extensively investigated. We previously reported that anti-CD3-activated and CD28-costimulated naive human CD4(+) T cells themselves release very low but sufficient levels of IL-4 ...
متن کاملPeripheral T lymphocyte cytokine profile (IFNgamma, IL-2, IL-4) and CD30 expression/release during measles infection.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Measles virus infection (MVI) has been reported to be characterized by an imbalanced Th(1/2)-type cytokine profile. CD30 has been proposed as a receptor preferentially associated with the Th(0/2)-type cytokine pattern. The aim of this study was therefore to define the peripheral T lymphocyte cytokine profile and to test which CD30 expression pattern it was associated wi...
متن کاملassociation of the expression of il-4 and il-13 genes, il-4 and ige serum levels with allergic asthma
immune and inflammatory responses mediated by cytokines, play important roles in the pathophysiology of asthma. these responses are associated with overexpression of th2 cytokines such as il-4 and il-13. these two cytokines use common receptors for signaling that lead to identical immunological effects and regulation of the th1/th2 balance. the aim of this study was to determine whether patient...
