Study of TH 1 and TH 2 activity in women with threatened miscarriages

بررسی نقش سلو لهای دندریتیک کبد و طحال در القای پاس خهای سلولی 1 TH و 2 TH

    Background & Objective: Dendritic cells(DCs) play an important role in directing immune response toward TH1(T-Helper 1) or TH2(T-Helper 2). These cells may induce distinct cytokine patterns in different tissues. So the pattern of cytokine induction by liver and spleen DCs may differ from each other. To investigate the difference between immune responses in the liver(as a non-lymphoid organ ...

Th-1 and Th-2 cytokine production in infants with virus-associated wheezing.

Wheezing associated with respiratory viral infections in infancy is very common and results in high morbidity worldwide. The Th1/Th2 pattern of immune response in these patients remains unclear and previous studies have shown controversial results. The aim of the present study was to compare the type of Th1/Th2 cytokine response between infants with acute bronchiolitis, recurrent wheezing and u...

expression levels of th-2 and th-17 characteristic genes in healthy tissue versus periodontitis.

the t helper 17 (th17) cells have been suggested to have osteoclast activating effects while t helper 2 (th2) cells are considered to have an osteoprotective role in periodontitis. this study was to compare the markers of th17 cells (rorc2 and il-17 genes) with that of th2 cells (il-4 and gata-3 genes) between healthy and periodontitis tissues.the samples were obtained from patients with period...

Novel Genetic Regulation of T Helper 1 ( Th 1 ) / Th 2 Cytokine Production and

, AND TOMIO TADA 445 Preparation of Th - 1 and Th - 2 Specific for KLH

A number of recent reports indicate the existence of more than one type of helper T cell (I-6). A previous publication from our laboratory (3) demonstrated two types of carrier-specific helper T cells that independently and synergistically exert helper effects on the hapten-specific antibody response. One type (Thl) 1 is a more conventional helper T cell that helps hapten-specific B cells only ...
