Th2 Cells in Health and Disease
Annual Review of Immunology, 2017Helper T (Th) cell subsets direct immune responses by producing signature cytokines. Th2 cells produce IL-4, IL-5, and IL-13, which are important in humoral immunity and protection from helminth infection and are central to the pathogenesis of many allergic inflammatory diseases.

Revisiting the Th1/Th2 Paradigm [PDF]
Scandinavian Journal of Immunology, 1998 The identification of subsets of CD4+ helper cells producing distinct pattern of cytokines has provided a valuable framework for understanding how different effector populations of immune cells can be recruited in vivo during infection. In the view of most investigators, Th1 and Th2 cells produce factors that serve as their own autocrine factors and ...

Th2 cell-derived histamine is involved in nasal Th2 infiltration in mice
Inflammation Research, 2021Histamine derived from mast cells and basophils plays important roles in inducing allergic symptoms. Although T cells also produce histamine, the involvement of the histamine produced from T cells has remained enigmatic. We sought to reveal the roles of T helper 2 (Th2) cell-derived histamine in nasal allergic disorders.The histamine production from ...

Current Allergy and Asthma Reports, 2007
Several cysteine and serine protease allergens have been cloned from house dust mites, including Der p 1, Der p 3, Der p 6, and Der p 9. A significant body of evidence suggests that these allergens mimic helper T (Th) 2 cell adjuvants. Der p 1 cleaves CD23 from activated B cells and CD25 from T cells. Der p 1 proteolytically degrades tight junctions in

Th2 responses in schistosomiasis
Seminars in Immunopathology, 2012Schistosomiasis is caused by infection with parasitic flatworms of the genus Schistosoma. It is characterized by the development of strong CD4(+) T cell and B cell responses that, during primary infection, fail to eliminate the parasites, but in collaboration with cells of the innate immune system allow survival in the face of ongoing tissue damage ...

Current Opinion in Hematology, 2001
After activation, CD4 helper T (Th) cells differentiate into Th1or Th2 effector subsets. These two types of cells produce distinct profiles of cytokines and regulate different immune responses. This review summarizes recent progress on different features of co-stimulatory regulation and chemokine-mediated homing of Th1 and Th2 cells.

TH2 and ‘TH2-like’ cells in allergy and asthma: pharmacological perspectives
Trends in Pharmacological Sciences, 1994Recently, considerable progress has been made in understanding the molecular basis by which cytokines released from CD4+ helper T cells contribute to allergic disease. A subset of CD4+ helper T cells, termed TH2 cells, produce interleukin 4 (IL-4) and IL-5, but not interferon gamma.

Preproenkephalin is a Th2 cytokine but is not required for Th2 differentiation in vitro
Immunology & Cell Biology, 1999Preproenkephalin (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.

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 ...

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.
