The T helper cells (Th1 cells) are a subset of CD4+ T cells which are characterized by releasing cytokines like interferon gamma (IFN-γ), IL-2, and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) to activate other immune cells and contribute to cellular immune responses.
6 Οκτ 2015 · For example, growth hormone and prolactin can enhance thymocyte proliferation and migration, whereas glucocorticoids lead to the apoptosis of these developing cells.
15 Μαΐ 2024 · In this article, development and functions of different subsets of helper T cells (T H 1, T H 2, T H 17 and T FH) are illustrated, and their roles in different hypersensitivity reactions are discussed.
Two very distinct cytokine secretion patterns have been defined amoung murine CD4+ T cells. Type 1 helper (TH1), but not type 2 helper (TH2), cells produce interleukin (IL)-2, gamma-interferon (IFN-γ) and tumour necrosis factor-β, whereas TH2, but not TH1, cells express IL-4, IL-5, IL-6 and IL-10.
As their name suggests, T helper (Th) cells provide helper functions to other cells of the immune system—especially the antigen-presenting cells (APCs) such as macrophages, dendritic cells, and B cells—and are important for their activation and maturation.
1 Ιαν 2004 · Th1 cell development in protection against intracellular pathogens such as mycobacteria: dendritic cells (DC) and macrophages (Mφ) produce cytokines (IL-12 and IL-27) that drive Th1 development, while IL-12 and IL-18 are important for maximal IFN-γ production from effector Th1 cells to activate macrophage killing and opsonising antibody ...
This makes them more effective at stimulating helper T cells to differentiate into T H 1 effector cells in peripheral lymphoid organs, providing a positive feedback loop that increases the production of T H 1 cells and, thereby, the activation of macrophages.
