Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the clinical significance of Th1/Th2 balance of peripheral blood Th cells and of serum high-sensitivity C-Reactive Protein(hs-CRP) in type 2 diabetic patients.Methods:Th1/Th2 cells were determined by using the tri-colored fluorescence labeled flow cytometry serum hs-CRP concentrations were determined by ELISA in type 2 diabetic patients (n=60) and the controls (n=25).Results:(1)Th1 cells and Th1/Th2 ratios were significantly reduced in type 2 diabetic patients than the controls (P 0.05 ). Th1 cells negatively correlated with HbA1c (r=-0.688 P
