Immunologic self-tolerance is critically dependent on the induction but also on the downregulation of immune responses. Though ignored and neglected for many years, suppressor T cells, now renamed regulatory T cells (Tregs), play an important role in the negative regulation of immune responses. Several subsets of Tregs have been described.

Regulatory T Cells as Immunotherapy [PDF]
Regulatory T cells (Tregs) suppress exuberant immune system activation and promote immunologic tolerance. Because Tregs modulate both innate and adaptive immunity, the biomedical community has developed an intense interest in using Tregs for immunotherapy.

Tissue regulatory T cells [PDF]
SummaryFoxp3+ CD4+ regulatory T cells (Tregs) are an immune cell lineage endowed with immunosuppressive functionality in a wide array of contexts, including both anti‐pathogenic and anti‐self responses. In the past decades, our understanding of the functional diversity of circulating or lymphoid Tregs has grown exponentially.

Regulatory T-Cell Phenotyping Using CyTOF
Regulatory T cells are an important component of the immune system that plays a key role in maintaining homeostasis. Identification of distinct regulatory T cell subsets is essential to understand their function.

Regulating regulatory T cells [PDF]
Regulatory T cells (Tregs) are a specialized subpopulation of T cells that act to suppress activation of other immune cells and thereby maintain immune system homeostasis, self-tolerance as well as control excessive response to foreign antigens. The mere concept of Tregs was the subject of significant controversy among immunologists for many years ...

Regulatory T cells in paracoccidioidomycosis [PDF]
This review addresses the role of regulatory T cells (Tregs), which are essential for maintaining peripheral tolerance and controlling pathogen immunity, in the host response against Paracoccidioides brasiliensis, a primary fungal pathogen. A brief introduction on the general features of Treg cells summarizes their main functions, subpopulations ...

First discovered… The existence of T regulatory cells was first suggested by several animal models in the 1970s. Organ-specific autoimmunity was found to be induced in specific strains of mice that had been thymectomized 3 days after birth but not after thymectomy at 0 or 7 days.

Aire-dependent production of XCL1 mediates medullary accumulation of thymic dendritic cells and contributes to regulatory T cell development [PDF]
Dendritic cells (DCs) in the thymus (tDCs) are predominantly accumulated in the medulla and contribute to the establishment of self-tolerance. However, how the medullary accumulation of tDCs is regulated and involved in self-tolerance is unclear. We show

Regulatory T (TR) cells are a subset of T cells that function to control immune responses. Different populations of TR cells have been described, including thymically derived CD4(+)CD25+ TR cells and Tr1 cells induced in the periphery through exposure to antigen.

Immunometabolism of regulatory T cells [PDF]
The bidirectional interaction between the immune system and whole-body metabolism has been well recognized for many years. Via effects on adipocytes and hepatocytes, immune cells can modulate whole-body metabolism (in metabolic syndromes such as type 2 diabetes and obesity) and, reciprocally, host nutrition and commensal-microbiota-derived metabolites ...
