Lead (Pb) exposure is known to cause T helper 1 (Th1) to T helper 2 (Th2) shift in the immune response. The mechanism responsible for these effects is unclear. Plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) are known as the principal secretor of type 1 interferons (IFNs), which have a stimulatory effect on Th1 differentiation. However, no previous study has explored the effect of Pb on pDCs. Thus, the present study was conducted to explore the correlation between circulating pDC count, serum IFNα (pan) levels, and blood lead levels (BLLs) in chi
