The plasticity of regulatory T cell function.
Regulatory T cells (T(regs)) can suppress a wide variety of cell types, in diverse organ sites and inflammatory conditions. Whereas T(regs) possess multiple suppressive mechanisms, the number required for maximal function is unclear. Furthermore, whether any interrelationship or cross-regulatory mechanisms exist to orchestrate and control their utilization is unknown. In this study, we assessed...
متن کاملNotch1 signaling and regulatory T cell function.
Previous studies have shown that the Notch1 and TGF-beta signaling pathways are mutually re-enforcing. Given recent evidence that regulatory T cell (Treg) effector function is mediated by TGF-beta signaling, we investigated whether Notch1 signaling also participated in Treg effector function. Initial studies showed that Notch1 ligands, particularly Jagged1, are present on Tregs and that, indeed...
متن کاملModulation of dendritic cell function by naive and regulatory CD4+ T cells.
The consequences of interactions between dendric cells (DCs) and either naive CD4+ T cells or regulatory CD4+CD25+ T cells on the expression of proinflammatory IL-6 and anti-inflammatory IL-10 in DC were examined over a period of 12 h, spanning the time frame during which stable T cell-DC interactions shape the development of tolerance and immunity in vivo. We demonstrate that the basal product...
متن کاملA rapid diagnostic test for human regulatory T-cell function to enable regulatory T-cell therapy.
Regulatory T cells (CD4(+)CD25(hi)CD127(lo)FOXP3(+) T cells [Tregs]) are a population of lymphocytes involved in the maintenance of self-tolerance. Abnormalities in function or number of Tregs are a feature of autoimmune diseases in humans. The ability to expand functional Tregs ex vivo makes them ideal candidates for autologous cell therapy to treat human autoimmune diseases and to induce tole...
متن کاملdendritic cell stimulation by ifn-β alters t cell function via modulation of cytokine secretion in diabetes type 1
during antigen capture and processing, mature dendritic cells (dc) express large amounts of peptide-mhc complexes and accessory molecules on their surface. we investigated the role of ifn-β in induction hla-g expression on the monocyte derived dc and cytokine profile in diabetes type 1. we accomplished secretary pattern and total cytokine production of the th1 cytokine (il-2, γifn) and th2 cyto...
