==Common Functions of Th<sub>1</sub> and TH<sub>2</sub> Cells==
Both TH1 and TH2 cells produce IL-3 and granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor ([[Leukopoiesis|GM-CSF]]). These act to activate and induce proliferation of [[Neutrophils|neutrophils]] and [[Macrophages|macrophages]]. [[Neutrophils|Neutrophils]] are the major phagocytic cells in the blood and  the principal cells in acute inflammatory lesions whose function is chiefly the body's defence against extracellular bacteria. One of the major biological functions therefore of the activation of either TH subset is cytokine-controlled reactive [[Haematopoiesis - Overview|haematopoiesis]].
