Description
Summary:The parameters characterizing antituberculous immune response at the stage of cytokinedependent activation of T cells were analyzed in 90 patients with pulmonary tuberculosis before etiotropic therapy. Immunophenotyping of T cells for IL-12Rβ 2 , WSX-1, and gp130 surface markers and T-bet intracellular transcription factor was carried out after specific IL-12/IL-27 induction of cells in vitro . An increase in the counts of CD3 + T-bet + , CD3 + IL-12Rβ 2 + , and CD3 + WSX-1 + gp130 + cells and the level of T cells with high expression of WSX-1 inhibitory molecule (CD3 + WSX-1 hi+ gp130 − and CD3 + WSX-1 hi+ gp130 + ) was detected. The type of disorders in the inductive stage of antituberculous immune response did not depend on the clinical form of disease.
