Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleBlood-Circulating Type 2 Follicular Helper T Cells in Pediatric Allergy PatientsMasaaki Hamada, Yoshihiko Sakurai, Tomohiro TakedaPediatric allergic diseases are primarily caused by an IgE-dependent immunological reaction. Despite studies reporting the involvement of T follicular Helper (TfH) cells, especially type 2 TfH cells, in class-switching to IgE production in B cells, TfH subset skewing in peripheral blood in pediatric allergy patients remains to be elucidated. This study aimed to investigate the possible involvement of type 2 … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 18 Jun 2020 · 7,505 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsTHE IMMUNOMODULATORY EFFECTS OF PROBIOTIC BACTERIA ON PERIPHERAL BLOOD MONONUCLEAR CELLS (PBMCS) OF ALLERGIC PATIENTSSomaya M. El Sheikh, Mona A.M. Shalaby, Raghda A. Hafez et al.Allergic diseases represent major health burden. An allergic reaction is characterized by a disrupted T- helper 1⁄T-helper 2 balance toward a preferential allergen specifically induced TH2 cytokine profile, causing allergic inflammation Probiotic bacteria have various benificial effects in many pathologic situation. Studies have shown that the bacteria present in the intestinal micro flora play a role in the TH1/TH2 balance … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 10 Sep 2014 · 8,273 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsRole of Cytokines and Transcription Factors in Periodontitis: A Review of Cellular and Molecular MechanismsAnne Carolina Eleutério Leite, Valéria Martins de Araújo Carneiro, Júlia Faria Nunes et al.Periodontal Diseases (PD) are characterized by pathological manifestation of host immune response to bacterial infection at the tooth/gingival interface. Evidences points periodontitis as a risk factor for pathological systemic conditions, such as, cardiovascular diseases and diabetes. The identification of host factors that determine their susceptibility to immune subversion can provide useful information in the pathogenesis of periodontitis. Protective acute inflammatory … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 9 Dec 2015 · 7,807 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsTransforming Growth Factor-β: An Indirect Inducer of Th17 Cell Differentiation both in Human and Murine SystemJ. SchumannSince their first description only some years ago Th17 cells have become of vital importance in immunological research. However, the role of TGF-β in Th17 cell development is still a matter of controversial discussion. Predicted to have a key function in Th17 cell differentiation in the mouse TGF-β was shown to inhibit IL-17 production of human CD4+ T cells. Moreover, … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,575 accessesView PDFCite
Literature ReviewOpen accessIn the abstractFundamental Questions about γδT CellsMoulay Yassine Belghali, Saadia Ba-M’hamed, Mouna Khouchani, Brahim AdmouγδT cells is a minor subgroup of T lymphocytes expressing γδ-T Cell Receptor (TCR), with many subsets, dominated by Vδ2 and Vδ1. γδT cells recognize antigens independently of the context of MHC class I, MHC class II, or CD1 presenting molecules. However, this recognition requires the expression of the transmembrane Butyrophilin proteins by the presenting cells. Their activation is controlled … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 20, Issue 4 · 15 Dec 2020 · 6,382 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractChronic Mental Stress Induces Reversible Reduction of Natural Killer Cells and CD56dim SubpopulationManar M. IsmailGenerally, studying to be a health care provider is a stressful and demanding field and the students have to face many stressors that may affect their general health status including the immune system. This work aimed at studying the effect of prolonged naturalistic life-stress exposure on the percentage of peripheral blood T-lymphocytes and Natural Killer (NK) cells in female laboratory … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 30 Aug 2017 · 7,792 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCD2 Shown to Facilitate CD4+ Cell Differentiation during Visceral Leishmaniasis, a Receptor Based StudySukrat Sinha, Shanthy Sundaram, Sanjiva Bimal et al.This study addressed the role of CD2 on CD4+ T helper cells in relation to the TCRVα1 and CD70 in two groups of BALB/c mice viz control and infected (1×107 L. donovani promastigotes). The results showed with the downregulation of CD2 expression there is a pronounced decrease of TCRVα1 and CD70 on CD4+ cells in mice. An insight into the … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 28 Nov 2015 · 7,828 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInterplay of Cytokines and Chemokines in the Pathogenesis of Systemic Lupus ErythematosusDilip Shah, Ajay Wanchu, Archana BhatnagarProblem statement: Dysbalance of T-helper-cell (Th) cytokines and chemokines was suggested to contribute to the pathogenesis of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE). Recent reports suggest the involvement of cytokines and chemokines in the pathogenesis of SLE, but their relationship with each other and particularly in the severity of disease, was not yet understood. We analyzed the interaction between cytokines and chemokines … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 21 Dec 2011 · 8,161 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAtopic Dermatitis and Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus in Iranian ChildrenElham Ahmadi, Zahra Rahnama, Ali Rikhtegaran TehraniProblem statement: Atopic diseases, including asthma, eczema and allergic rhinitis, are characterized by a chronic inflammatory reaction mediated by T helper 2 cells, while type 1 diabetes mellitus is mediated by T helper 1 cells. Approach: The aim of this study was to compare the prevalence of atopic dermatitis between children with type 1 diabetes mellitus and age-matched controls.
