Objective:To investigate the relationship between the expression levels of CD4+CD25+CD127lo/-Tregs in peripheral blood of asthma patients during exacerbation or remission.Methods: A total of 2 ml peripheral blood were collected in healthy or asthma patients during exacerbation and remission.The percentage of CD4+CD25+CD127lo/-Tregs in CD4+T cells by flow cytometry were detected.Results: A significant decrease of the percentage of CD4+CD25+CD127lo/-Tregs in CD4+T cells was observed in exacerbation and remission groups compared with control group(P0.05).This was also detected in exacerbation group compared with remission group(P0.05).Conclusions: The CD4+CD25+CD127lo/-Tregs play a key role in the pathogenesis of asthma and its decrease,which may lead to immune dysfunction,may be involved in the mechanisms of asthma.
