Research Abstract |
To assess the psychological stress of students before taking a national-license examination, we investigated the changes of CD4-positive T-cell subsets in peripheral blood, salivary amylase activity and salivary chromogranin A (sCgA) concentration in addition to conducting Profile of Mood States (POMS) psychological tests. sCgA concentration was significantly correlated with the POMS T-A scale, and higher percentages of CD4+CD25+ T cells and greater Th1/Th2 ratios were observed with increasing sCgA concentrations. These results suggest that psychological stress affects the T-cell subsets related to acquired immunity.
