To explore the association of peripheral blood T helper type 1 (Th1) and type 2 (Th2) imbalance with the occurrence of condyloma acuminatum (CA).
Interferon-gamma(IFN-gamma) and interleukin-4 (IL-4) secreted by CD4(+) T-cells were detected by flow cytometry in 40 patients with CA and 20 healthy volunteers, and significance of Th1/Th2 cell ratio in the etiology of the CA was analyzed.
Peripheral blood Th1 cells that secreted IFN-gamma were significantly decreased in number in patients with CA (P <0.05), while Th2 cells producing IL-4 increased (P <0.05). The Th1/Th2 cell ratio was significantly reduced in CA patients as compared with the health control subjects (P <0.01).
Increases of Th2 cells and decrease of Th1 cells in the peripheral blood of CA patients result in relative Th2 predominance and breach the Th1/Th2 balance, which may play an important role in the etiology and recurrence of CA.
探讨外周血1型辅助性T细胞（Th1）与2型辅助性T细胞（Th2）失衡与尖锐湿疣（CA）发生的相关性。
采用流式细胞术检测40例CA患者和20名健康志愿者CD4(+) T细胞分泌的干扰素-γ（IFN-γ）和白细胞介素-4（IL-4），分析Th1/Th2细胞比值在CA发病机制中的意义。
CA患者外周血中分泌IFN-γ的Th1细胞数量显著减少（P <0.05），而产生IL-4的Th2细胞数量增加（P <0.05）。与健康对照者相比，CA患者的Th1/Th2细胞比值显著降低（P <0.01）。
CA患者外周血中Th2细胞增多、Th1细胞减少，导致Th2相对占优势，打破了Th1/Th2平衡，这可能在CA的发病机制和复发中起重要作用。
