Patients with treatment-resistant major depression had a significantly higher percentage of helper CD4+ T cells and immature double positive CD4+CD8+ T cells in their blood, and higher CD4+/CD8+ ratio than healthy controls. These results suggest activation of T helper immuno-response and disturbance in thymus function in these patients.
难治性重度抑郁症患者血液中辅助性CD4+ T细胞和未成熟双阳性CD4+CD8+ T细胞的百分比显著高于健康对照组,且CD4+/CD8+比值也更高。这些结果表明这些患者存在辅助性T细胞免疫反应激活和胸腺功能紊乱。
