ABSTRACT
The immune effect of CD4~+CD28~-T cells on Graves'ophthalmopathy(GO)was investigated.The expressions of interferon-γ(IFN-γ),interleukin-2(IL-2),and IL-4 in CD4~+ CD28~-T ceils were assayed by flow cytometry in GO patients,Graves'disease(GD)patients without ophthalmopathy,and healthy control subjects.The results showed that the percentage of CD4~+CD28~-T cells significantly increased in GO patients(P<0.05),with increased IFN-γ expression(P<0.05)and decreased IL-2 expression(P<0.05).These changes were closely correlated with clinical activity score(P<0.05).There were no significant differences in IL-4 expression among three groups.The resuh suggests that CIM~+ CD28~- T cells which hishly secrete IFN-γare related to the pathological lesion of GO.
