Background: The development of a maternal immune response to fetal antigens and deficiency in regulatory T-cells (Tregs) may lead to preeclampsia. A plausible explanation for the reduced Treg cell function in women with preeclampsia is the presence of exhausted Treg cells which express CD279 or programmed cell death receptor-1 (PD-1), a negative regulatory molecule associated w...

background: ovarian cancer is the fifth leading cause of death from malignancy in women. cd4 +cd25+foxp3+ regulatory t (treg) cells are a subset of t lymphocytes with great inhibitory impact on immune response. objectives: to investigate the percentage of cd4 +cd25+foxp3+ regulatory t cells in the peripheral blood of the iranian patients with epithelial ovarian cancer compared to healthy women ...

background: lack of sufficient information on the mechanism of plasma exchange (pe) therapy in multiple sclerosis (ms), has limited this treatment to individual patients with severe relapses who have been refractory to other treatments. this is while pe is used very successfully as a first-line standard treatment in many other neuro-immune disorders. recent data suggest that treg/th17 counterba...

Background: Ovarian cancer is the fifth leading cause of death from malignancy in women. CD4 +CD25+FoxP3+ regulatory T (Treg) cells are a subset of T lymphocytes with great inhibitory impact on immune response. Objectives: To investigate the percentage of CD4 +CD25+FoxP3+ regulatory T cells in the peripheral blood of the Iranian patients with epithelial ovarian cancer compared to healthy women ...

soluble forms of nonclassical human leukocyte antigen (hla)-g have recently been suggested as immunomodulatory factors in multiple sclerosis (ms). hla-g inhibits the effecter function of t cells and natural killer (nk) cells. also regulatory t cells (treg) are considered as pivotal players in ms pathogenesis. thus, we aimed to evaluate the presence of hla-g molecules and treg cells in relapsing...

Foxp3+ regulatory T (Treg) cells are broadly divided into naive-like and activated Treg cells, however recent studies suggest further Treg cell heterogeneity. Treg cells contribute to impaired T cell responses in chronic infections, but the role of specific Treg cell subpopulations in viral infections is not well defined. Here, we report that activated Treg cells are separated into two transcri...
