The levels of CD4+CD25+ regulatory T cells in patients with allergic rhinitis

Abstract: Background: The involvement of CD4+CD25+ regulatory T cells (CD4+CD25+ TRegs) in allergic diseases was reported previously. However, it remains unclear whether CD4+CD25+ TRegs are involved in allergic rhinitis (AR). Methods: Fresh whole blood from 20 patients with AR and 16 healthy donors was used to investigate the frequency of CD4+CD25+ and CD4+CD25hi Treg cells using flow cytometry. In addition, serum total IgE (IU/mL) levels were determined using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays. Results: Patients with A… Show more

“…Treg cells can be divided into natural Treg cells and induced Treg cells, but in this study, they were not further classi ed. In peripheral blood, Treg cells account for 5-10% of the total number of CD4+ T cells [12,13]. Currently, it is believed that natural Tregs are derived from the thymus and that they play an inhibitory role mainly through cell contact mechanism [10].…”
