Abstract excerpt
The reciprocal differentiation of T helper 17 (T(H)17) cells and induced regulatory T (iT(reg)) cells plays a critical role in both the pathogenesis and resolution of diverse human inflammatory diseases. Although initial studies suggested a stable commitment to either the T(H)17 or the iT(reg) lineage, recent results reveal remarkable plasticity and heterogeneity, reflected in the capacity of differentiated...
