Abstract:
Objective:To observe the expression of Th1 versus Th2 type cytokines in primary hepatic cancer(PHC)and its adjacent liver tissues.Methods:The gene expression of Th1/Th2 cytokines was detected by RT-PCR using IFN-?and IL-2 as Th1 type cytokine genes,IL-4 and IL-10 as Th2 type cytokine genes.Results:Thl type cytokines were expressed in 7 and 9 cases,while Th0 type cytokines in 4 and 2 among 11 PHC and their adjacent liver tissues,respectively.Conclusion:Th1 type cytokines are expressed predominantly in primary hepatic cancer and its adjacent liver tissue.
