ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the variance and significance of Th1/Th2 type cytokines in plasma of ovarian cancer patients. Methods The levels of IL-2, IFN-?, TNF-?, IL-4, IL-6, IL-10 in 34 plasma samples of ovarian cancer patients and 14 normal women were detected by cytometric bead array. Results The levels of IL-2, IFN-?, TNF-? in ovarian cancer patients were obviously lower than those in normal womens but the levels of IL-4, IL-6, IL-10 were obviously higher. Furthermore, the variance changed along with clinic stage. Conclusion It is suggested that the imbalance of Th1/Th2 type cytokines in ovarian cancer patients may provide clinical index for the evaluation of progression and prognosis.
