Regulatory T-Cell Plasticity
During the past 2 decades, human and animals studies have clearly documented the crucial role of inflammation in the development and complications of atherosclerosis. Both innate immunity and adaptive immunity are involved in this process. The first evidence that suggested a role of adaptive immunity in atherosclerosis was the widespread detection of the major histocompatibility class II in hum...

متن کاملRegulatory T‐cell heterogeneity
Regulatory T cells (Tregs) preserve immune homeostasis by suppressing autoimmunity and inflammation. While most Tregs develop in the thymus, they are heterogenous in their tissue localisation and function. This heterogeneity is advantageous for the maintenance of immune and tissue homeostasis in organs such as gut and kidney but often detrimental in the context of tumor, since Treg cells can da...
متن کاملRegulatory T Cell Subtypes and TGF-β1 Gene Expression in Chronic Allograft Dysfunction
Background: Regulatory T cells have been suggested to have a protective role against acute rejection in allograft recipients. However, there is little information available about their contribution to chronic rejection process. The role of transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGF- β1) as a profibrogenic and/or immunoregulatory cytokine in renal allografts is also controversial. Objectives: To eva...
متن کاملRegulatory T Cells in Colorectal Cancer
One of the essential protection mechanisms of immune system is Treg cells which play an important role in maintenance ofimmune homeostasis. However, they may also inhibit immune functions against tumor cells. It has been reported that Treg cellsare increased in patients suffering from different types of cancer. Increased number of Treg cells has been shown in tumor lymphnodes, peripheral blood,...
