Abstract excerpt
CD4+ T helper (Th) clones can be divided into interleukin 2 (IL-2)-secreting Th1 and IL-4-secreting Th2 cells. We show in the present report that these two Th subsets have different activation requirements for lymphokine production and proliferation: namely, cholera toxin (CT) as well as forskolin inhibit T cell receptor (TCR)-mediated IL-2 production and proliferation in Th1 cells, while the same reagents fail...
