CD8 refers to a molecule expressed on the surface of T lymphocytes. T lymphocytes expressing this molecule are called CD8+ T lymphocytes, which are cytotoxic T lymphocytes that can kill kill the human cells infected by the virus and tumor cells,block the replication and spread of viruses and the spread of tumors. Under normal circumstances, CD8 lymphocytes account for about 35% of all T lymphocytes. The increase of CD8+ T lymphocytes should consider that the human body is suffering from viral infection or the appearance of tumors, so CD8 detection is helpful for the diagnosis of certain infectious diseases and immune diseases.2021-10-13

The dangers of obesityThe persistent imbalance between energyintake and energy consumption results inobesity, which causes acommon disorder called metabolic syndrome, with various comorbidities. These include type 2 diabetes, hypertension, nonalcoholic steatohepatitis(NASH), cardiovascular diseases and cancer, which may lead to death. Worldwide, 1.9 billion adults are overweight and 600 million are obese, and 51% of the global population is predicted to be obese by 2030. Thus, obesity is a major global health problem with increasingly alarming incidence.New targets for obesity treatmentDespite efforts to find safe, effective obesity treatments, current options are limited, mainly due t......2021-09-29

CD3 is the best marker for detecting mature T cells in peripheral blood. Therefore, the determination of CD3 positive T cells is of great significance to the evaluation of immunodeficiency, such as T cell deficiency, leukemia, lymphoma and so on. In addition, the CD3 monoclonal antibody is fully utilized in immunosuppressive therapy during organ transplantation, bone marrow transplantation, and immunomodulatory therapy for the purpose of removing T cells for severe autoimmune diseases.2021-09-27

CD4+ T lymphocyte testing is an important indicator for evaluating the immune status of HIV-infected persons, predicting and judging the course of the disease, evaluating the effect of antiviral drug treatment, and estimating the prognosis. The World Health Organization (WHO), Europe and the United States and other countries recommend that people infected with HIV monitor the level of CD4+ T lymphocytes every 3-6 months, and use this indicator as a starting point to prevent interstitial plasma cell pneumonia and other opportunities Sexual infections, and as the main indicator of antiretroviral therapy.2021-09-27

Hepatocellular carcinomaHepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) accounts for approximately 90% of primary liver cancers and ranks as the fourth most prevalent cancer worldwide. HCC primarily develops from hepatitis C virus infection, alcohol use, or nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) in North America and Europe; however, in eastern Asia and Africa, hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is the predominant etiological factor. Regulatory T cellsRegulatory T cells (Treg) are a subset of T cells that control autoimmune reactivity in vivo. It has been a research hotspot in the field of immunology in recent years. Treg has the two major characteristics of low immune response and immunosuppression. Throug......2021-09-22
