Changes in cytokine production and T cell subpopulations in experimentally induced zinc-deficient humans.
We have utilized an experimental model of human zinc deficiency for study of cytokines production by TH1 and TH2 cells. Additionally, we determined ratios of CD4+ to CD8+ and CD4+ CD45RA+ to… Expand
