Cellular immune dysregulation in the pathogenesis of immune thrombocytopeniaImmune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is an acquired autoimmune hemorrhagic disease characterized by immune-mediated increased platelet destruction and decreased platelet production, resulting from immune intolerance to autoantigen. The pathogenesis of ITP remains unclear, although dysfunction of T and B lymphocytes has been shown to be involved in the pathogenesis of ITP. More recently, it is found that dendritic cells, natural...
