Abstract excerpt
We sought to determine whether the predominant orbital T helper (T(H)) cell subset in orbital T cell clones established from patients with Graves' ophthalmopathy (GO) might be related to disease duration. A total of 117 clones were established from orbital adipose/connective tissues of 6 GO patients, and cytokine production was measured in 57 CD3+CD4+ clones. T(H)1-type clones were predominant in cultures from...
