background: it seems that the success of vaccination for cancer immunotherapy such as dendritic cell (dc) based cancer vaccine is hindered through a powerful network of immune system suppressive elements in which regulatory t cell is the common factor. foxp3 transcription factor is the most specific marker of regulatory t cells. in different studies, targeting an immune response against regulat...

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...

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...

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a complex neurological disease and its prevalence is about 2 million in the world. Neuroinflammation plays a key role in MS. Vitamins are essential nutrients that have effective role on immune system including activation of lymphocyte and differentiation of T-helper cell. Vitamin D is a micronutrient that is effective on immune function. Deficiently of Vitamin D is a ...
