The role of regulatory T cells and genes involved in their differentiation in pathogenesis of selected inflammatory and neoplastic skin diseases. Part I: Treg properties and functions

Abstract excerpt

Regulatory T cells (Treg) can be divided into two types: the natural cells (tTreg), which arise in the thymus, and the induced cells (iTreg), which are produced in peripheral tissues during immune response. The most recently published studies indicate that the supervisory functions of these cells are weakened in the pathogenesis of autoimmune and neoplastic diseases of the skin. This may be a result of the...
