有人认为类风湿性炎症是由激活的促炎 T 辅助细胞 1 型细胞介导的。相比之下,免疫调节性 T 辅助 2 型细胞及其细胞因子,特别是白细胞介素 4,却很少被发现。本章回顾了 Th1/Th2 二分法的概念,并总结了 T 辅助细胞亚群标志性细胞因子的功能。我们讨论了关于 Th1/Th2 范式的类风湿性关节炎及其相关动物模型(胶原诱导的关节炎)的免疫发病机制的当前知识。越来越多的证据表明 1 型辅助性 T 驱动炎症及其对未来治疗的影响。
It has been suggested that rheumatoid inflammation is mediated by activated pro-inflammatory T helper type 1 cells. In contrast, immunomodulatory T helper type 2 cells and their cytokines, in particular interleukin-4, are rarely found. This chapter reviews the concept of the Th1/Th2 dichotomy and summarizes the functions of the signature cytokines of the T helper subsets. We discuss current knowledge of the immunopathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis and its related animal model, collagen induced arthritis, with regard to the Th1/Th2 paradigm. The accumulating evidence for a T helper type 1 driven inflammation and the implications for future therapy are delineated.
