Reduced circulating regulatory T cells in primary Sjögren’s syndrome: the contribution of enhanced apoptosis and impaired survival
22 Aug 2025
Abstract excerpt
Background: Regulatory T cells (Tregs) are found to be critical for maintaining immune tolerance to self-antigens; however, their status in primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS) remains unclear. We investigated alterations in the abundance of peripheral Tregs in a large pSS cohort and their implications for patients. Methods: Levels of CD4+CD25+FOXP3+Treg cells in the peripheral blood of 624 patients with pSS, and 93...
