Functional subsets of lymphocytes.
نویسنده
چکیده
In this review I shall survey various properties of lymphocytes which allow clear distinctions to be drawn between different lymphocyte subsets. I shall discuss only thymus-derived (T) lymphocytes since these cells appear to play a key role in regulating the activities of other lymphoid cells (B cells and macrophages) as well as carrying out effector functions themselves. In the first section I shall discuss murine T lymphocytes since most of the most decisive experimental studies have been carried out in this species, while the concluding section of the review will deal with human T lymphocyte heterogeneity.

متن کاملDetermination of lymphocytes surface markers in patients with thermal burns and the influence of burn size on mononuclear cell subsets
Background: Thermal burn injuries impair the host defence system. Hence, in the present study, we aimed at investigating the changes in the number and phenotype of peripheral blood lymphocyte populations (T, B, and natural killer cells) and their subpopulations in patients with thermal burns and determining the relationships with different sizes of total body surface area (TBSA). ...
متن کاملفنوتایپینگ لنفوسیت‌های T خاطره‌ای در گردش در سالک
Background and Aim: The heterogenous population of memory T lymphocytes is distinguished based on surface markers and effector functions such as cytokine secretion. Recently, two subsets of memory T cells are defined by expression of chemokine receptor CCR7 and CD45RA designating as "central memory" T cells (TCM) and "effector memory" T cells (TEM). The objective of this staudy was to evaluate ...

Background: Protective immune responses induced in the majority of people infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis enable them to control TB infection. Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate CD56 and CD16 positive peripheral blood mononu-clear cells (PBMCs) and leukocyte subsets from multi-drug resistant pulmonary tuber-culosis (MDR-TB), and compare them with nonresistant (NR) TB p...
متن کاملExpression of Chemokine Receptors on Th1/Th2 CD4+ Lymphocytes in Patients with Multiple Sclerosis
Background: Th1 cells preferentially express CXCR3, CCR5 and CCR6, while CCR3 and CCR4 are predominantly expressed by Th2 cell subsets. Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a Th1 cell-dependant chronic inflammatory disease of the central nervous system, and immunomudolatory cytokines could alter the chemokine expression pattern of these lymphocyte subsets. Objective: This study was performed to measure c...
متن کاملSex Hormones and Peripheral White Blood Cell Subsets in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Patients
Background: Systemic Lupus Eyrythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disease charac-terized by antibodies to nuclear antigens, particularly anti-dsDNA. Imbalance between production and destruction of immune cells causes cytopenia. Sex hormones have im-munomodulatory effects; estrogen increases the production of autoantibodies in SLE prone NZB/NZW mice. Objective: To investigate the relationship bet...
