THE MODULATORY EFFECTS OF INTERLEUKIN-4 AND INTERFERON-GAMMA PRODUCTION BY T-HELPER CELLS ON IgE SYNTHESIS IN CHILDREN WITH ATOPIC DISEASE

THE MODULATORY EFFECTS OF INTERLEUKIN-4 AND INTERFERON-GAMMA PRODUCTION BY T-HELPER CELLS ON IgE SYNTHESIS IN CHILDREN WITH ATOPIC DISEASE

Interleukin-4 (IL-4) is produced by T-helper cells type 2 (TH2) and induces IgE synthesis. T-helper cells type 1 (TH1) produce interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) which suppresses TH2 and reduces IL-4 induced IgE production. In this :;tudy , we demonstrated that the levels of specific IgE in the serum of a...
