چکیده

Current knowledge of the immunopathogenesis of psoriasis vulgaris is based on the crucial role of CD4 and CD8 lymphocytes. Also, the connection of activated lymphocytes with macrophages, especially dendritic cells and plasmacytoid dendritic cells, is considered to be significant. In the present study, the expression of CD4+ lymphocytes as well as CD8+ lymphocytes (P < 0.001) and macrophages (P < 0.001) was found to be significantly increased in lesional skin epidermis and dermis in psoriasis vulgaris patients as compared with healthy skin. These findings suggested a cascade or chain reaction with cells and cytokines playing an important role to be involved in the immunopathogenesis of psoriasis vulgaris.

Comparative Analysis of CD4+ and CD8+ T Cells in Tumor Tissues, Lymph Nodes and the Peripheral Blood from Patients with Breast Cancer

Background: CD4+ and CD8+ T cells are the main types of lymphocytes in cell-mediated immunity and play a central role in the induction of efficient immune responses against tumors. The frequencies of T cell subtypes in the peripheral blood and tumor tissues, and draining lymph nodes (dLN) can be considered as useful markers for evaluation of the immune system in cancers. Methods: In this study,...

Human T-cell lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) is associated with adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATL) and HTLV-1-associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP). Only a limited percentage of infected individuals develop disease in response to the virus while the majority remain asymptomatic and HAM/TSP is the most common clinical manifestation of the virus. HAM/TSP is an inflamma...
