The underlying immune system abnormalities associated with these conditions is not known. The hypotheses of this study were that dogs with IMHD would have increased frequencies of CD4+ and CD8\u2009+\u2009lymphocytes, decreased frequencies and numbers of T regulatory cells, and increased frequencies of interleukin (IL)-17\u2009+\u2009lymphocytes. Fifteen dogs with newly diagnosed IMHA or ITP and 15 healthy control dogs were recruited for this prospective study. Flow cytometry was used to enumerate CD4\u2009+\u2009lymphocytes, CD8\u2009+\u2009lymphocytes, T regulatory (CD4\u2009+\u2009CD25\u2009+\u2009Foxp3+) cells, and lymphocytes secreting IL-17 in dogs with IMHD at diagnosis, then 2 and 4 days after starting immunosuppressive treatment. Median proportion of CD4+ (Day 0: 3.4%, Day 2: 3.3%) and CD8+ (Day 0: 1%, Day 2: 0.6%) cells was lower in dogs with IMHD compared to control dogs (CD4\u2009+\u200922.8%, CD8\u2009+\u2009: 13.6%; P\u2009&lt;\u20090.0001 for each). Additionally, T regulatory cells were reduced in IMHD dogs at Day 0 (0.2% versus 0.6% of total lymphocytes, P\u2009=\u20090.0025). Dogs with IMHD had a higher proportion of lymphocytes positive for IL-17 at Day 2 (1.3%) compared to control dogs (0.4%, P\u2009=\u20090.0024). Dogs with IMHD have immune system alterations at diagnosis and during early treatment characterized by a deficiency in T regulatory cells and an increase in IL-17\u2009+\u2009lymphocyte. These changes might contribute to the pathogenesis of IMHA and ITP.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1371\/journal.pone.0326341","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,6,17]],"date-time":"2025-06-17T17:37:08Z","timestamp":1750181828000},"page":"e0326341","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1371\/journal.pone.corrections_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Lymphocyte
