Multiple treg suppressive modules and their adaptability
Foxp3(+) regulatory T cells (Tregs) are a constitutively immunosuppressive cell type critical for the control of autoimmunity and inflammatory pathology. A range of mechanisms of Treg suppression have been identified and it has not always been clear how these different mechanisms interact in order to properly suppress autoimmunity and excessive inflammation. In recent years it has become clear ...
متن کاملSuppressive Treg Cell Activity Is Potentiated by Glycogen Synthase Kinase 3β Inhibition
The mechanism by which regulatory T cells (Tregs) suppress the immune response is not well defined. A recent study has shown that β catenin prolongs Treg survival. Since β-catenin is regulated by GSK-3β directed phosphorylation, we focused on GSK-3β and the role it plays in Treg function. Inhibition of GSK-3β leads to increased suppression activity by Tregs. Inhibitor-treated Tregs exhibited pr...
متن کاملSuppressive IL-17A+Foxp3+ and ex-Th17 IL-17AnegFoxp3+ Treg cells are a source of tumour-associated Treg cells
Th17 and regulatory T (Treg) cells are integral in maintaining immune homeostasis and Th17-Treg imbalance is associated with inflammatory immunosuppression in cancer. Here we show that Th17 cells are a source of tumour-induced Foxp3+ cells. In addition to natural (n)Treg and induced (i)Treg cells that develop from naive precursors, suppressive IL-17A+Foxp3+ and ex-Th17 Foxp3+ cells are converte...
متن کاملPrevalence of newly generated naive regulatory T cells (Treg) is critical for Treg suppressive function and determines Treg dysfunction in multiple sclerosis.
The suppressive function of regulatory T cells (T(reg)) is impaired in multiple sclerosis (MS) patients. The mechanism underlying the T(reg) functional defect is unknown. T(reg) mature in the thymus and the majority of cells circulating in the periphery rapidly adopt a memory phenotype. Because our own previous findings suggest that the thymic output of T cells is impaired in MS, we hypothesize...
