REGULATORY T–CELLS: ORIGIN AND FUNCTION

Abstract. Over the past decade a population of so–called “regulatory T cells” (Treg cells) has been linked to the prevention of autoimmunity. In this review we discuss the molecular mechanisms of Treg cells development and function including the identification of the unique molecular marker of Treg...
