Abstract excerpt
AIM: To longitudinally investigate cytokine gene expression and protein levels in Th17 and Treg cells, to observe T-cell phenotypes during hepatitis B virus (HBV)-related acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACHBLF) and to analyze changes in Th17 and Treg phenotypes during disease progression. METHODS: We measured the expression of seven Th17/Treg differentiation-related genes and serum concentrations of the...
