Loss of Functionally Redundant p38 Isoforms in T Cells Enhances Regulatory T Cell Induction*
The evolutionarily conserved protein kinase p38 mediates innate resistance to environmental stress and microbial infection. Four p38 isoforms exist in mammals and may have been co-opted for new roles in adaptive immunity. Murine T cells deficient in p38α, the ubiquitously expressed p38 isoform, showed no readily apparent cell-autonomous defects while expressing elevated amounts of another isofo...
متن کاملIL-2 immunotoxin denileukin diftitox reduces regulatory T cells and enhances vaccine-mediated T-cell immunity.
CD4+CD25+Foxp3+ regulatory T (Treg) cells have been implicated in the lack of effective antitumor immunity. Denileukin diftitox (DAB(389)IL-2), a fusion protein of interleukin 2 (IL-2) and diphtheria toxin, provides a means of targeting Treg cells. In this study, we examined (1) the effect of denileukin diftitox on the deletion of Treg cells in various lymphoid compartments and (2) the dose sch...
متن کاملRegulatory 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...
