## Abstract Superoxide and its derivatives have been implicated as secondary messenger molecules that influence signaling cascades in non‐phagocytes. B lymphocytes produce superoxide after BCR ligation. We found that these ROS regulate B‐cell signaling and entry into the cell cycle. B cells from mi
Allergen-specific T cells from atopic patients generally belong to the T-helper type 2 subset. IL-4 and IL-13 produced by these cells induce IgE synthesis by B cells and play a major role in allergic disease mediated by IgE. Recent advances in our understanding of the differentiation and IgE-inducin
## BACKGROUND. T helper type 1 cells (Th1), Th2, T cytotoxic type 1 cells (Tc1), and Tc2 play important immunoregulatory roles. Some recent studies have demonstrated that an elevated level of type 2 cytokines, such as interleukin-10, contributes to the ability of cancer cells to escape immunosurvei
