Preproenkephalin is a Th2 cytokine but is not required for Th2 differentiation in vitro

Immunology & Cell Biology, 1999
Preproenkephalin (PPNK) mRNA expression has been detected in many cells of the immune system, including monocytes and lymphocytes. In the present paper, the expression of PPNK mRNA in purified CD4+ Th1 and Th2 lymphocyte subpopulations is investigated and correlated with the presence of the opioid neuropeptides leu‐ and met‐enkephalin.

The Th1/Th2 paradigm

Immunology Today, 1997
Abstract The Th1/Th2 paradigm provides a useful model for understanding the pathogenesis of several diseases, as well as for developing novel immunotherapeutic strategies. Here, Sergio Romagnani examines Th1/Th2 polarization in the context of associated pathophysiological conditions.

Th1/Th2 Cells

Inflammatory Bowel Diseases, 1999
A large body of evidence indicates the existence of functionally polarized CD4+ T-cell responses based on their profile of cytokine secretion. Type 1 T helper (Th1) cells produce interferon-gamma, interleukin (IL)-2, and tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-beta, which activate macrophages and are responsible for cell-mediated immunity and phagocyte-dependent ...

Coemergence of Insomnia and a Shift in the Th1/Th2 Balance toward Th2 Dominance

Neuroimmunomodulation, 2002
<i>Objectives:</i> Insomnia is associated with physical and mental disorders. We examined the effect of insomnia on immune functions, focusing on the T helper 1 (Th1)/ T helper 2 (Th2) balance, by a cross-sectional design. <i>Methods:</i> We provided a self-administered questionnaire to evaluate sleep habits, smoking and medical

A disproportion of TH1/TH2 cytokines with predominance of TH2, in urothelial carcinoma of bladder

Urologic Oncology: Seminars and Original Investigations, 2011
Bladder cancer is a common tumor of the urinary tract, accounting for 6% to 8% of all male malignancies and 2% to 3% of all female malignancies. Urothelial carcinoma (UC) of bladder is the second most common urologic malignancy after prostate cancer. Earlier report has elucidated immunologic unreactivity in cancer patients.

The Th2 Cytokine Environment of the Placenta

International Archives of Allergy and Immunology, 2000
It is now accepted that local changes to the balance of Th1/Th2-type cytokines occur during pregnancy within the maternal uterus and fetoplacental unit. These changes in cytokine profiles contribute to implantation of the embryo, development of the placenta, and survival of the fetus to term.

Signaling pathways in Th2 development

Immunological Reviews, 2004
Summary:  In order for an immune response to be successful, it must be of the appropriate type and magnitude. Intracellular residing pathogens require a cell‐mediated immune response, whereas extracellular pathogens evoke a humoral immune response. T‐helper (Th) cells orchestrate the immune response and are divided into two subsets, Th1 and Th2 cells ...

Th1/Th2 Cross Regulation

Journal of Theoretical Biology, 1994
We present and analyze a model for the cross-regulation of the Th1 and Th2 helper cell subsets during an immune response by the regulatory cytokines interferon-gamma (IFN)-gamma) and interleukin-10 (IL-10). IFN-gamma, secreted by Th1 cells, can inhibit the proliferation of Th2 cells.

TH1-TH2: a Procrustean paradigm

Nature Immunology, 2003
Although immunologists have found the dichotomous helper T cell subset model a useful construct, it is beginning to show its age. Some suggest that proponents of the TH1-TH2 dichotomy are overzealous in making the data conform to the scheme, like Procrustes who stretched or truncated his guests so that they would fit his guest bed.
