Excessive expressions of T cell activation markers in pediatric immune thrombocytopenia

Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is an immune-mediated bleeding disorder in children. Activated T cells have been shown to play important roles in ITP. The aims of this study were to evaluate whether these T cell activation markers could be used as indicators to differentiate ITP patients from controls, and to assess whether they could be used as predictors of IVIG response in ITP patients.
