Abstract

Background Asthma is characterized by a T(H)2 immune response. CD4(+)CD25(hi) regulatory T cells (Tregs) have been proposed to prevent allergic diseases through suppression of T(H)2 responses. Objective We sought to investigate the role of CD4(+)CD25(hi) T cells in children with asthma. Methods CD4(+)CD25(hi) Tregs and forkhead/winged-helix transcription factor FOXP3 mRNA levels were quantified in peripheral blood and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) of 18 children with asthma, 10 children with chronic cough, and 13 control subjects without lung diseases. CD4(+)CD25(hi) T cells were isolated from peripheral blood and BALF of asthmatic patients and control subjects, and their capacity to suppress proliferation and cytokine/chemokine production of autologous responder T cells was analyzed. Results CD4(+)CD25(hi) T cells were decreased in BALF of asthmatic children compared with values in children with cough or control subjects. In children with asthma, inhaled corticosteroid treatment was associated with increased percentages of CD4(+)CD25(hi) T cells in peripheral blood and BALF. Isolated BALF and peripheral blood CD4(+)CD25(hi) T cells from nonasthmatic subjects suppressed proliferation and cytokine/chemokine production by CD4(+)CD25(-) responder T cells. BALF CD4(+)CD25(hi) T cells from asthmatic subjects failed to suppress proliferation and production of T(H)2-associated cytokines and chemokines by CD4(+)CD25(-) responder T cells, which was restored after use of inhaled…

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
