Article Synopsis
- - This study investigates the differences in CD4 T cell profiles and cytokine levels in children and adolescents with obesity compared to those with normal weight, using flow cytometry and cytokine measurements.
- - Findings reveal that obese children have fewer CD3 and CD4 T cells with altered expression of certain markers like CD28, IL-4, and a higher presence of IL-17A, indicating significant immune system changes.
- - The reduced levels of IL-10 in obese children correlate with higher body fat and inflammation, suggesting that these CD4 T cell alterations contribute to the inflammatory conditions associated with obesity in this age group.
