Intraocular Cytokine Environment in Active Behçet Uveitis

Our results showed that an extreme Th1 polarization, a high proinflammatory condition, a low immunosuppressive status, and the presence of natural killer (NK) or CD8+ T cell-activating cytokine were unique features in aqueous humor with Behçet uveitis, suggesting that different immunopathogenic mechanisms may be involved in the ongoing intraocular inflammation of Behçet uveitis.
