Regulation of immune cell activation in lymphocyte-bearing human tissues is a pivotal host function, and metabolites of arachidonic acid (prostaglandin E, in particular) have been reported to serve this function at non-mucosal sites. However, it is unknown whether prostaglandin E2 is immunoregulator
## Abstract These studies were designed to determine the degree of overlapping between cytolytic function and lymphokine production among peripheral blood human T lymphocytes. T8^+^ and T4^+^ cells were obtained by sorting purified T cells using the fluorescenceβactivated cell sorter (FACS) and clo
Decreased interleukin-2 (IL-2) production by lymphocytes in vitro has previously been demonstrated in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). In the present study, we examined whether inhibitory factors in SLE patient sera are involved in defective IL-2 production. Our results indicate tha
