摘要
The present study describes the distribution of CD4(+)CD8(+) double-positive (DP) T cells in various immune compartments of mice with ovalbumin (OVA)-induced allergic asthma. It was found that the absolute number of DP T cells was considerably increased in the mediastinal lymph nodes and lungs of asthmatic mice as compared with that determined in the healthy subjects. On the contrary, the absolute counts of DP T cells was significantly decreased in the head and neck lymph nodes, and in peripheral blood of OVA-immunized mice. These results suggest that DP T cells may be involved in the pathogenesis of allergic asthma.
