Abstract excerpt
The T helper subsets Th1 and Th2 regulate specific types of immune responses by producing distinct sets of cytokines. Differentiation of the T helper subsets from their common precursors, naive CD4+ T cells, is induced by antigen stimulation and controlled by various other conditions. Of these conditions, the contributions of the cytokine environment have been the best characterized. The presence of interleukin-4...
