the role of t regulatory lymphocytes in lymphoma

t regulatory cells play a crucial role in immunological unresponsiveness to self- antigens and in suppressing excessive immune responses deleterious to the host. t regulatory cells are produced in the thymus as a functionally mature subpopulation of t cells. they can be induced from naive t cells in the periphery and express their marker as a forkhead/winged helix transcription factor called fo...

The influence of the regulatory T lymphocytes on atherosclerosis.

Atherosclerosis is complex inflammatory disease of the arterial wall, in which T lymphocytes play a significant role.1 Since the recognition that T lymphocytes are present in human atherosclerotic plaque nearly 2 decades ago,2 research has focused on the functional importance of these cells in the atherosclerotic process. The majority of T lymphocytes in atherosclerotic lesions are CD4 T-helper...

Regulatory T Lymphocytes

Since Gowans first discovered the importance of lymphocytes in the immune response [1], a gradual understanding of their biology has evolved. Initially, B lymphocytes, the effector cells of humoral immunity, were studied in great detail. Largely because of the ability to obtain huge quantities of homogeneous antibodies-the B cell's primary product-through the study of multiple myeloma, tremendo...

T Lymphocytes: Regulatory

CD4+ regulatory (Treg) T cells play a central role in the immune system by potently controlling the responses of other immunocytes. Their activity appears to be essential not only for themaintenanceof immunological self-tolerancebut potentially also for the control of all physiological immune responses whether against normal self-proteins, microbes or cancerous cells. A fuller understanding of ...
