- W4384131661 abstract "Rationale Sarcoidosis is a granulomatous interstitial lung disease involving a complex interplay among different cluster of differentiation 4 (CD4 + ) thymus cell (T-cell) subsets. Originally described as a type 1 T-helper (Th1) inflammatory disease, recent evidence suggests that both effector and regulatory T-cell subgroups play a critical role in sarcoidosis, but this remains controversial. Objectives We aimed to investigate the distribution of CD4 + T-cell subpopulations in sarcoidosis patients and its potential associations with clinical disease activity and a radiographic fibrotic phenotype. Methods We measured the frequencies of regulatory T cells (Tregs), Th1, Th17, and Th17.1 cells in the peripheral blood and/or bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) of 62 sarcoidosis patients, 66 idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) patients, and 41 healthy volunteers using flow cytometry. We also measured the changes in these T-cell subpopulations in the blood at the follow-up visits of 11 sarcoidosis patients. Measurements and results An increased percentage of Tregs was observed in the peripheral blood of sarcoidosis patients, with a positive association to disease activity and a fibrotic radiographic phenotype. We found a higher frequency of Tregs, a lower proportion of Th17.1 cells, and a lower ratio of Th17.1 cells to total Tregs in the peripheral blood of both active and fibrotic sarcoidosis patients, compared with IPF patients or healthy donors. In contrast, a lower frequency of Tregs and a higher proportion of Th17.1 cells was found in the BALF of sarcoidosis patients than in that of IPF patients. There was an imbalance of Tregs and Th17.1 cells between the peripheral blood and BALF in sarcoidosis patients. Following immunoregulatory therapy, the proportion of circulating Tregs in sarcoidosis patients decreased. Conclusion A higher proportion of Tregs in the peripheral blood of sarcoidosis patients was related to disease activity, fibrotic phenotype, and the need for immunoregulatory therapy. The imbalanced distribution of Tregs and Th17.1 cells in patients’ peripheral blood and BALF suggests that the lung microenvironment has an effect on the immunological pathogenesis of sarcoidosis. Therefore, further studies on the functional analysis of Tregs and Th17.1 cells in sarcoidosis patients are warranted." @default.
