Abstract excerpt
To date many clinical studies aim to increase the number and/or fitness of CD4+CD127lowCD25+ regulatory T cells (Tregs) in vivo to harness their regulatory potential in the context of treating autoimmune disease. Here, we sought to define the phenotype and function of Tregs expressing the highest levels of IL-6 receptor (IL-6R). We have identified a population of CD4+CD127lowCD25+ TIGIT- T cells distinguished by...
