T-cell differentiation: Commitment factors for T helper cells
The immune system is designed to eradicate a large variety of invading pathogens with minimum immunopathology. T helper cells, also known as CD4+ T cells, may be subdivided into the T helper 1 (Th1) and the T helper 2 (Th2) subsets, which produce distinct profiles of cytokines [1,2]. These Th1 and Th2 cells have opposing roles, regulating immune responses to intracellular and extracellular path...
متن کاملFibroblast and T cells conditioned media induce maturation dendritic cell and promote T helper immune response
Dendritic cells (DCs) induce pathogen-specific T cell responses. We comprehensively studied the effects of addition of maturation stimulus, fibroblasts (fibroblast conditioned medium), PHA activated T cells (T cell conditioned medium), and mixture of fibroblast & PHA activated T cells (FCM-TCCM) conditioned media on maturation of DCs. Monocytes were cultured with GM-CSF and IL-4 for five days. ...
متن کاملT Helper Cells Profile and CD4+CD25+Foxp3+Regulatory T Cells in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Background: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is considered as the most common cause of female infertility that affects 4-10% of women in the reproductive age. Previous studies have shown the role of a balanced immune response in a successful pregnancy and fertility. Objective: To investigate the T helper cells type 1 (Th1) /Th2/Th17/Treg paradigms in peripheral blood of infertile PCOS compared ...
متن کاملMonocyte-derived dendritic cells promote T follicular helper cell differentiation
To be effective, protein priming must induce the development of a distinct lineage of CD4(+) T cells named T follicular helper (Tfh) cells, which regulate the differentiation of high-affinity memory B cells and long-lived plasma cells. In this context, we tested how adjuvantation with CpG, the Toll-like receptor 9 agonist used in clinics, contributes to antigen-specific T-cell-dependent B-cell ...
متن کاملModel Analysis of Helper T Cell Differentiation
Helper T (Th) cells regulate immune responses by producing various cytokines upon antigen stimulation. Helper T cells can be divided into two subsets, Th1 and Th2 [2]. The Th1 cells are responsible for defense against infectious intracellular microorganisms. The Th2 cells are responsible for defense against extracellular pathogens and the development of allergic immune reactions. The SOCS famil...
