Methods: A total of 150 children with asthma were allocated into the acute phase group (n=94) and remission phase group (n=56) based on clinical manifestations. The acute phase group was subdivided into the mild group (n=54) and severe group (n=40). Flow cytometry was applied to determine CD4+CD25+Foxp+ Treg, CD4+IFN-γ+ Th1 and CD4+IL-4+ Th2 levels in peripheral blood of different groups, and the results were compared with normal children (control group, n=50).
Results: The Treg level was significantly lower in the asthma group than the control group (P},
