Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Stress has been found to increase IL-4, which is associated with the Th2 response, and decrease IL-2, which is associated with the Th1 response. Additionally, stress has also been found to increase IL-10, which can regulate both Th1 and Th2 responses, and decrease INF-γ, which is associated with the Th1 response. Therefore, both option A (increasing IL-4 and decreasing IL-2) and option C (increasing IL-10 and decreasing INF-γ) are correct, making option D the best choice.
