Abstract excerpt
We investigated the characteristics of regulatory T cells (Tregs), focusing on the relationship between their stability and reactive oxygen species (ROS), in antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated vasculitis (AAV). Intracellular expressions of effector cytokines, forkhead box protein 3 (FoxP3), ROS, phosphorylated mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR), and sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) in Tregs from peripheral blood...
