Follicular bronchiolitis as phenotype associated with CD25 deficiency

Abstract excerpt

Regulatory T cells [Tregs ; CD4(+) CD25(+) forkhead box protein 3 (FoxP3(+) )] are subsets of T cells involved in the maintenance of peripheral self-tolerance by actively suppressing the activation and expansion of autoreactive T cells.
