Decreased Breg/Th17 Ratio Improved the Prognosis of Patients with Ulcerative Colitis.

Conclusions: Breg and Th17 cells participate in the occurrence and development of ulcerative colitis. B10/Th17 ratio and IL-10/IL-17 ratio can be used as prognostic markers for ulcerative colitis. This provides a theoretical basis for design of targeted treatment and prognosis assessment of the disease. PMID: 29765931 [PubMed - in process]
